Envoy
From Guild Wars Wiki
Spoiler alert: The following text contains spoilers relating to the story of the Factions and Nightfall campaigns.
Envoys are shepherds of the souls of the dead. When a mortal dies, an envoy will appear before the newly released soul to guide them into the Mists.
From lore, all envoys were once wicked criminals in life, forced by Grenth to serve as soul shepherds as punishment. Envoys appear to possess tremendous power, although they cannot directly affect the mortal realm.
There are five known envoys that were explicitly named (although one is no longer an envoy):
The manifestations of these envoys can be seen at several points in the Factions Campaign.
