Envoy

Envoys are shepherds of the souls of the dead, forced to serve Grenth due to their wickedness in their former lives. They appear after someone dies to lead their soul from the mortal lands to the Mists.

While Envoys have immense power, they do not directly manipulate the mortal realm. If they desire to change the mortal realm, they usually inhabit constructs or use mortals as the agents of their plans. (It must be noted that Envoys do have the ability to interact with the mortal realm directly, as Shiro proved when he slew Master Togo.) Envoys also have the power to use the spirits of the dead entrusted to their care however they wish.

It is strongly hinted that Envoys do not naturally ally with other Envoys. However, some of the Envoys have allied together to stop Shiro Tagachi, another Envoy, from destroying the balance of the universe.

The apparitions of some Envoys appear at several key points in the Factions storyline to guide the players.
