The Shivarra are 6-armed, all female, mystical demons living in Outland. Currently not much is known about these dangerous demons except the small excerpt of information stored on the holographic projector on The Exodar.

Shivarra are of the Shivarra species and serve the Burning Legion as priestesses and military chaplains. They are devout and charismatic and as such are a driving force behind the Burning Legion as all their efforts are bent on bringing Sargeras' vision into being.

Shivan

Shivan appears to be another term used for these mystical demons living in Outland, also called the shivarra race. So far the only known example of a shivan is the Shivan Assassin. It has been theorized that "shivarra" is the draenei term, while "shivan" is a more common name. Alternatively, "shivan" could be the adjective form of "shivarra."
