The Silver Covenant is a militant faction of high elves and Kirin Tor. Led by the high elf Vereesa Windrunner, they reject the admission of blood elves into the Kirin Tor and have taken it upon themselves to serve as a military deterrent for any potential Horde uprising. They have joined the Alliance Vanguard, along with the Explorers' League and the main host of the Valiance Expedition, in Northrend. They employ hippogryphs as well. The Horde equivalent of the Silver Covenant are the Sunreavers.

Background
- A militant core of high elves that rejects the admission of blood elves into the Kirin Tor. They've united under the banner of Vereesa Windrunner and joined the Alliance forces in Northrend.
The Covenant controls the Alliance-exclusive district of the Silver Enclave in Dalaran. The guards they employ are
Silver Covenant Guardian Mages, who expel Horde players once they get too close to the Enclave's outer walls.
Before patch 3.1, there was no way to gain reputation with the Silver Covenant. However, now they are the Alliance's host of the Argent Tournament and reputation can be gained through many quests. Another way of gaining reputation with them is spillover from the Alliance Vanguard and its associated factions (usually by running heroics without a tabard). You will get an average of 7 rep per mob and 125 per boss. When players reach exalted reputation, they can get a
[Quel'dorei Steed],
[Silver Covenant Hippogryph] and a
[Shimmering Wyrmling] from the quartermaster, Hiren Loresong.
In Patch 3.3.0 the champions of the Silver Covenant helped fight the forces of the scourge in the Frozen Halls and its Sunreaver counterpart in Dalaran, to restore the magical blade Quel'Delar from its defiled state by the Blood-Queen Lana'thel.
Cataclysm
The Silver Covenant makes a return in Patch 4.1, when they are invited by the Ranger-general of Silvermoon, Halduron Brightwing, to join forces with Vol'jin of the Darkspear tribe against the budding Amani empire within Zul'Aman.
Mists of Pandaria
After Jaina Proudmoore discovered that Sunreavers helped Garrosh Hellscream steal the
[Divine Bell] by using Dalaran portals to infiltrate Darnassus, Jaina mobilized the Alliance forces and the Silver Covenant to purge the Horde from Dalaran. While Jaina rounded up the Sunreavers who surrendered peacefully, Vereesa sends Alliance agents to prevent the Sunreavers from escaping and neutralize any Horde insurrections or Sunreaver sympathizers who were aiding and abetting their resistance to incarceration. The Silver Covenant is dispatched into the sewers, where they round up several bewildered Sunreaver citizens. Soon after, the Silver Covenant comes under attack by Grand Magister Rommath, whose assault on the city includes undoing much of the Silver Covenant's attacks underground, in Krasus' Landing, and in the (now Alliance-controlled) Sunreaver's Sanctuary.
The Silver Covenant is later seen supporting Jaina Proudmoore's Kirin Tor Offensive as they vie for control over the Isle of Thunder.
