To see who is currently in a formed coven, you can view the MEMBERS. To end a coven, simply use DISSOLVE, or use LEAVE to exit a coven. When three or more coven members stand together, CIRCLE will have you and all other members of the coven present join hands in a circle, which enables certain spells and provides minor resistance for its members against unwanted summons. Some Night magic can only be performed in a coven or in a coven circle. To speak to all members of your coven, use COVEN <message>.
 
If you have the [[Combat#Squads|squads ability in Combat]], you can use NIGHTCOVEN SQUAD to convert your coven into a squad. A coven squad earns more bonus XP than a normal squad.
 
<nowiki>*</nowiki> Nightwraiths while the [[Night Altar]] is active can join the Coven but will not count for [[#Terror|Terror Covens]].
