Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Throne World? Lore time!
Who is Savathûn?
- Savathûn, also known as the Witch Queen, is a powerful Hive God and the sister of Oryx (the Taken King) and Xivu Arath.
- She is known for her cunning, trickery, and manipulative nature, and has a long history of deception and complex schemes.
- Savathûn seeks to understand and master the universe, potentially beyond the current Light and Darkness conflict, and has even manipulated Hive tribute, black holes, and Ahamkara wish-dragon magic to achieve her goals.
- Like her siblings, she made a pact with the Worm Gods, which granted her power but also made her a slave to the worms’ hunger for death and conquest.
- As of The Witch Queen, Savathûn began enacting her grand scheme by possessing the body of the Warlock Osiris after he was left Lightless by the death of his Ghost Sagira during a confrontation with the High Celebrant of Xivu Arath on the Moon.
- It was only until a confrontation involving the Guardian, Crow, Saint-XIV and Mara Sov where Savathûn revealed herself but was encased in a crystal by Mara Sov using awoken magic.
- In an attempt to exorcise and kill the Witch Queen, Mara Sov eventually released her, but to everyone’s surprise, Savathûn was able to escape, though in a weakened state.
