They are like a breath of fresh air in the game, because they bring new unique cosmetic items and other in-game stuff that players liked. So let’s move to some details about them, and find out, who or what are Covenants.

Covenants general info

Covenants are four powerful and very old fractions that reign in Shadowlands from the time when the world was created. There are a lot of legends and stories about them, but you better learn them separately. They were reigning in Shadowlands on four zones, that were separated between them. Also, they all were reigning in Afterlife, guarding it. They played an important role in the life of this world.

Their main role was to guard the Afterlife in Shadowlands, like security for the judging process, because a lot of souls come to Shadowland for their last court, by the grate Arbiter, that decides where should they go next, or rather to whom of all WoW Shadowlands Covenants.

Souls serve to the Covenants to stop being “fallen” and clean their sins, after that some of them will have a chance to become a part of a great army of Afterlife warriors, immortal soldiers that serve to the Covenants. But there are some of them who have too many sins or don’t want to serve at all, these souls will suffer endlessly in the place called the Maw.

The main feature about your soul, that makes you really special is that you are not dead for a real. You can travel between two worlds, the world of the living, and the world of the dead. Another important detail is that you have freedom of choice, and you could decide by yourself, where and to whom of Covenants, you want to go, ordinary fallen souls couldn’t make a choice, because the great Arbiter judges them and say where they have to go.

You have a pretty wide choice because you can choose any of the four Covenants: Kyrian, Venthyr, Night Fae, and Necrolord. They all have unique features and stories, but we recommend learning more details about them before making any decisions and choices. They all have pros and cons, we will tell you about them soon.

When you reach the required level, you will be able to make your choice, to whom you want to serve. Covenants will give you some special ability that depends on what class do you have for now. If you would serve them good enough, they will give you another special reward, that will boost some of your abilities.

Every Covenant has its one source of power – Sanctum. Every Sanctum has a unique design and story, that you can learn for a better understanding of the lore. Also, Covenants have a unique traveling system, and will also share their secrets with you, when you will be ready to join one of them.
