The Choir: the Healing Church Elite Who Looked to the CosmosThe Choir are the highest clerics of the Healing Church and the scholars who carried on Byrgenwerth's work. They found a Great One in the old tombs, spoke with her, and decided the cosmos was just above their heads. Here is what the game states about them, and what fans infer from the Upper Cathedral Ward.
The Healing Church: the Faith That Gave Yharnam the BloodThe Healing Church is the religion that rules Yharnam in Bloodborne. Scholars from Byrgenwerth founded it on the old blood, built a city of blood ministration around it, and armed hunters to clean up what that blood turned people into. Here is what the game actually says about it, and where the theories begin.
The League in Bloodborne: Valtr and the VerminThe League is a band of hunters sworn to find and crush vermin, which they call the root of man's impurity. Its master, Valtr the Beast Eater, waits in the Forbidden Woods. Here is what the League's items and dialogue say, and why many players think the vermin are an illusion.
The Pthumerians and Queen Yharnam: the Lost Civilisation Under YharnamThe Pthumerians carved the Labyrinth beneath Yharnam, guarded the sleeping Great Ones and later crowned their own queen. Almost everything known about them comes from Chalice Dungeon items. Here is what those items say, and what players read into Queen Yharnam.
The School of Mensis: the Cage-Wearing Scholars of Yahar'gulThe School of Mensis is the half of the Healing Church's upper ranks that runs Yahar'gul, the Unseen Village. Its scholars wore iron cages on their heads, kidnapped Yharnamites, and tried to reach a Great One through a nightmare. This page sets out what the game states about them and which parts are fan reading.
