Virgil is one of the Hymn of One's Watchers. He was present at the fake Ceremony, but given that this was his only appearance in Bree's times, one can assume he wasn't assigned to protect Bree. He is, however, the primary Watcher concerned about Emma's well-being, frequently seen fighting whoever he considers the greatest danger to her at the moment.

Virgil is notable for the special relationship he has to Jonas and the TAAG: It was him who explained to Jonas in the woods who LaRezisto really was, what was going on behind the scenes, and what a horrible mistake Jonas has made. He also, spared the TAAG's life and fought LaRezisto by their side, even going so far as to let Emma leave with them, even though he was clearly in control of the situation. On the other hand, he was seen threatening and hunting the gang multiple times.

Given that Watchers are assigned to protect the Ceremony Girl at all costs, it is likely Virgil has realized that the TAAG has no intention to harm Emma, and will, in fact, do everything to protect her. So he uses them as additional protection for his charge, instead of artifically endangering her by fighting people who want to protect her just as much as he does. It will have to be seen whether this leads to moral conflict later on, or if his loyalty is undivided and he'll dispose of the TAAG as soon as his assignment requires it.
