A voidwalker's sole purpose is to unconditionally serve a master. Thus, travelers rarely encounter them alone. The voidwalker is often a warlock's choice fel companion for its ability to intercept a single foe and keep him or her occupied. Many warlocks also prefer to do without the mischievousness of an imp or the jealousy of a succubus, preferring instead the unwavering, silent loyalty of a voidwalker. A voidwalker does not hesitate to follow even the most suicidal commands its master gives. A voidwalker's master often sends it to block a threat, leaving the master free to cast spells or use other abilities without interference. A voidwalker takes its orders literally; when out of communication with its master, it continues to obey its last command, even if that command is tactically unsound.{{Cite|MG|138}}

Voidwalkers are demons created from the chaos of the Twisting Nether. Their touch is misery, and it can momentarily blind a creature to other threats. These hulking blue creatures look vaguely humanoid. It seems to appear from within a black cloud as dark as the void.MG 138
They exist only to consume and bring more into the void. Voidwalkers are a paradox of life itself. They are created through a time space anomaly in the void which grants them sapience. To exist they constantly have to devour the energies of the physical world around them, furthering its dissolvement and creating warp rifts which may spawn new void. They sometimes work with (Are enslaved by) demons and can be summoned by warlocks, but have no interest in the religion of the Burning Crusade, caring only for bringing an end to all creation leaving only the shadowy nothingness in which they thrive.[citation needed]
Possibly the bracers they wear are like shackles to keep them stable when not in the nether, or to make them obey their master.

Naaru-voidwalker relationship
When a naaru dies, the light within them slowly bleeds away, leaving void energies in its place. These void energies draw in souls and turns them into creatures of the void while the naaru helplessly watches. This process of spawning these creatures is apparently necessary for, "without the void, the Light cannot exist". This can be observed in Auchindoun and around Oshu'gun.
Outland Voidwalker
The rogue voidwalkers seen in places like the Warp Fields notably wear what appear to be pauldrons and sometimes breast plates as opposed to bracers. The reason for this, and any difference it may make on their abilities is unknown.
