Do Earthen have souls?

Hey… I was thinking and my knowledge of lore is pretty bad. Do Earthen have souls?

They are technically robots… and I’ve never seen an Earthen soul in the maw or in Zerith Mortis.

I personally think the magical process that imbues them with consciousness does impart a real soul. They might inhabit an inorganic body that can break down without the awakening machine, but I still think they may have a soul.

Even the Humans (Vrykul), Dwarves, and Gnomes used to be constructs. I believe they already had a form of a soul before the curse of flesh even happened to them.

All sentient beings in the WoW universe have souls, but not all souls are equal.

Yes, we meet a bunch of Earthen ghosts during the Lunar Festival.

More or less, yeah. The titans even gave the first Earthen King a hammer to create more of his kind. (Somehow Earthen can make children exist, curious whenever War Within explains it) :hammer::robot:

Yes they do in a way. They leave a micro SD card that stores all of their lifelong memories when they die. The cemetary keeper’s task is to add that memory to the super Server somewhere in Dornogal. They have a whole questline on this.

When they die, like all of us players, they have to run back to their corpse as ghosts, so yes they have souls.

If they have the red “hair” option, they do not.
