Bwonsamdi is a powerful loa that controls the spirits of the dead on Echo Isles and elsewhere. When a troll dies they are sometimes said to be "wit’ Bwonsamdi".[1]

History[]

Before driven away from the Echo Isles by Zalazane and his hexed trolls, the Darkspear tribe once worshiped the great spirit. During the Liberation of the Echo Isles, Vol'jin tries to recruit Bwonsamdi to his side for the battle against Zalazane. After Vol'jin and his fellow Horde warriors prove themselves worthy, Bwonsamdi agrees to help them against Zalazane.

Notes[]

  • Bwonsamdi is the only Loa that the Darkspears are known to have worshiped since moving to the Echo Isles who differs from the traditional Gurubashi Loa.
  • Bwonsamdi seems to be inspired by the real Haitian Loa Baron Samedi. The RPG mentions another troll Loa inspired by Baron Samedi known as Samedi.
