Bwonsamdi, also known as "Samedi",[1] is an incredibly powerful <Loa of Death> (or "Loa of the Grave")[1] that controls the spirits of the dead on Echo Isles and elsewhere. When a troll dies they are sometimes said to be "wit’ Bwonsamdi".[2] Bwonsamdi's history before becoming a Loa is unknown, however he is now one of, if not the most powerful troll Loa. His goal is to collect souls of the dead that are sent to the Shadow Lands. He is not all knowing and can not be in all places in the Shadow Lands at once. He does not torture the spirits he collects, but he does absorb their power, becoming more powerful. He considered Vol'jin his personal instrument of death.
