Coven of the Servant is a witchblade coven of the Witchblade class.

The Coven of the Servant, a name chosen to mock the supernatural entities they "subjugate", is actually composed of many different smaller, individual covens, each stealing power from a different patron, much like the archaic Ur-Priests stole power from the gods. Little do they know, until it is too late, that their patrons know full well of their theft, and will try to force the Witchblade try to force them to serve them correctly - Or send warlocks to hunt them down if they refuse.
