In the television series Alias, The Covenant is a large, powerful, and secretive intelligence/terrorist organization. Alias was an American SpyFi television series, created by J. J. Abrams, that aired on ABC from September 30, 2001 to May 22, 2006. ...

The Covenant was a "loose affiliation of Russian nationalists" composed of retired KGB and former Central Committee members, all dedicated to the new world envisioned by Milo Rambaldi. It functioned much like an organized crime family. At one point, it had six cell leaders, until Julian Sark and Lauren Reed (a double agent in the NSC who was Michael Vaughn's wife) assassinated them in a bid for power. The Covenant had secured Sark's release to gain access to his wealth as a Romanov descendant. McKenas Cole had somehow managed to secure his own release and was now the second most powerful individual in the Covenant. During season 3, it was based in St. Petersburg. The KGB emblem and motto: The sword and the shield KGB (transliteration of КГБ) is the Russian-language abbreviation for State Security Committee, (Russian: ; Komitet Gosudarstvennoy Bezopasnosti). ...

Saint Petersburg (Russian: Санкт-Петербу́рг, English transliteration: Sankt-Peterburg), colloquially known as Питер (transliterated Piter), formerly known as Leningrad (Ленингра́д, 1924–1991) and Petrograd (Петрогра́д, 1914–1924), is a city located in Northwestern Russia on the delta of the river Neva at the east end of the Gulf of Finland...


In between the second and third seasons, The Covenant kidnapped Sydney Bristow and attempted to brainwash her into believing she was a Covenant agent. Sydney operated as a double agent for the CIA using the alias Julia Thorne for almost two years. Eventually, Sydney left the Covenant and had her memory of the missing years erased in an effort to prevent the Covenant from gaining a crucial Rambaldi artifact. FBI Assistant Director Kendall later told Sydney about those missing years and how she was able to escape the Covenant with his help. Sydney Anne Bristow (born 17 April 1975), played by Jennifer Garner, is the main character on the television series, Alias. ...

At the end of season 3 Lauren Reed was killed and Sark was captured. In season 4 the Covenant has disappeared as a threat, and Sark later referred to the "implosion of the Covenant," most likely due to Sark's financing of Covenant operations. Uschek San'ko, however, has formed a group made up of former Covenant operatives known as the Cadmus Revolutionary Front. San'ko hires ex-K-Directorate operative Anna Espinosa to retrieve the Dante Compound, a form of putty that causes viruses to self-replicate at an alarming rate. Anna, however, views CRF as weak and assassinates San'ko, planning to sell the bomb herself to one of Sark's associates. However, the "implosion" was a ruse perpetrated by Elena Derevko. It was also revealed that Elena was the leader of the Covenant, and that Irina Derevko had actually been trying to prevent Elena's endgame. Elena's new headquarters in Prague was raided, but she escaped. K-Directorate is a fictional organized crime group in the television series Alias, based in the former Eastern bloc countries. ...

Elena's endgame, based on her interpretation of one of Rambaldi's prophecies, was an apocalypse called Il Diluvio, The Flood. Covenant operatives primed the world's water with Rambaldi substances and Elena activated an enormous Mueller device in Sovogda, Russia. Combined with the substances, the device caused those who had consumed the water to go into a mindless rage. With the help of Irina, the APO team managed to prevent The Flood and kill Elena. However, Nadia Santos had been captured and injected with the tainted water and sent out to fight her sister Sydney, as foreseen by Rambaldi. Sydney only managed to survive with the intervention of Arvin Sloane, who shot Nadia and put her in a coma.
