What types of souls end up in each Covenant?

So if I recall correctly;

  • Bastion - For heroes and war veterans.
  • Maldraxxus - For… heroes and war veterans?
  • Revendreth - For narcissists
  • Ardenweald - I have no idea

If anyone could go more in depth with what types of souls end up in each Covenant/realm, I’d love to hear it.

The arbiter decides where a soul goes, or, atleast it did, before you know, the whole maw thing happened.

But it is also worth to mention these 4 realms are not the only afterlives that exist, infact, an infinite number of afterlives exist… So yeah.

You’d have to ask the Arbiter !

Kyrian

Primary Realm: Bastion

Eternal Role: Angelic Soul Guides, tasked with shuttling souls between the lands of the living and the dead

Character: Ordered and purposeful, the Kyrian are called to lives of eternal service. The Kyrian value humility, righteousness, service, and virtue. Those who seek out the Kyrian who aren’t yet ready to assume roles to eternal service unburden their souls through meditation and reflection to gain renewed understanding.

Heroic Souls known to exist in Bastion: Uther Lightbringer, murdered by crown prince Arthas Menethil while defending the ashes of his father, King Terenas Menethil II.


Necrolords

Primary Realm: Maldraxxus

Eternal Role: Military guardians of the Shadowlands, protecting from external forces that wage war on the enemies of Death

Character: Unrelenting and unyielding, the Necrolords are the military arm of the Shadowlands. They can be ruthless, and value all flavors of strength and power – mental, emotional, and physical. Expect to be sorely tested to join their ranks, as the Necrolords believe in the survival of the fittest, meaning those who can’t excel deserve failure and rejection. This can lead to some interpreting Maldraxxus as a realm of evil, but this is not necessarily true. Power, not philosophy, rules here.

Heroic Souls known to exist in Maldraxxus: Draka, mother of Thrall, murdered by Gul’dan’s Shadow Council forces shortly after giving birth.


Night Fae

Primary Realm: Ardenweald

Eternal Role: Guardians of Nature, Shepherds of the Cycle of Life and Death

Character: The Night Fae represents the autumn and winter cycles of the Wheel of Life – the cycle of death and rebirth that comes to all parts of nature. They serve in a similar capacity to the Kyrian to powerful nature souls, guiding them from life to their realms for eventual rest and rebirth. The realms of the Night Fae are the mirror to the Emerald Dream, and parts of their realms are linked strongly to the Drust. Souls with strong ties to the natural world can earn rebirth through this reconnection to all aspects of nature.

Heroic Souls known to exist in Ardenweald: Cenarius, who was corrupted by the Nightmare and purified in the Emerald Nightmare.


Venthyr

Primary Realm: Revendreth

Eternal Role: Punishers of the Unworthy

Character: The vampiric Venthyr serve Shadowlands as those who seek out those souls weighed down by the burdens of their flaws – pride, rapaciousness, greed, apathy. Without the Venthyr to purge them of these burdens and allow them to atone, these souls might have been sentenced to an eternity in The Maw as irredeemable, but for the spark of possible redemption found within them. The Venthyr prepare these souls for one of two fates – learning to harness their strengths to become a Punisher for the Covenant or lighten their souls to move on to another Covenant to further their eternal journey.

Souls known to exist in Venthyr: Kael’thas Sunstrider, former Lord of the Blood Elves, who died in Magister’s Terrace after falling from grace following the Legion.
