Vahl Aradur

Vahl Aradur, or mostly known as Vahl, is a female Dark Elf Archer, the High Queen of Skyrim, and the main role for the finished series, A Skyrim Tale. She was born around 4E 176 in Vivec City, Morrowind, raised along with her older twin brother, Gaelan. She is a Lycanthrope Dunmer as well as the age's current Dragonborn. She does happen to have a TARDIS, but she cannot fly it well. Vahl has a voice in her head, constantly blurting out random nonsense, (and that is Jordan) sometimes she says the nonsense Jordan goes on about. She prefers to avoid conflict and during, she relies on her followers  and a plethora of health potions. She has a large fear of Frostbite Spiders (AKA Nopes) and Trolls, a liking for Derpalopes and Nirnroot,  and has a huge hatred for the Thalmor.

Appearance
Vahl is a female young adult Dunmer with a more human-like face than a elf's. She has long black hair, (originally in a ponytail) and grey-ish blue eyes. She currently wears a white tunic when at home, while adventuring, she wears a bright grey jacket covered in triangles, and a feather in her hair, representing how (according to Jordan) Indians (Native Americans) were good at archery.

Schizophrenic
Vahl talks to the voice in her head (Jordan Frye) a lot, making her a likely candidate of having Schizophrenia, a condition that effects the brain and may cause some to talk to people that may not be there.

Addiction to Nirnroot
"I have this bad habit of collecting Nirnroot, even though in this game it's practically useless. In Oblivion you needed it for like a-quest, so playing Oblivion, I got this horrible case of "collect all the Nirnroots""

- Jordan Frye

Vahl has a large obsession for Nirnroot for some unknown reason. Probably due to the fact that it makes a soft humming noise and glows, that of which, draws Vahl toward it. Her Nirnroot addiction is so severe, that whenever she hears the plant, she goes off track and goes directly to the Nirnroot.

Arachnophobia
She has had a huge fear of Spiders since episode 102 "Pack of Nopes" when a large group of Frostbite Spiders nearly killed her. Ever since she started calling the spiders "Nopes", due to the fact that Jordan screams "NOPE!" whenever they run into them. Now Vahl calls all forms of insects and arachnids "Nopes", but hasn't seemed to develope a fear of them.

Trollophobia
On episode 12 "Vahl's Training" Vahl has been attacked by a tough Frost Troll that nearly killed both Vahl and Lydia, but she only had a minor fear of them until episode 21 "Stealth Fail" where she was attacked by another Frost Troll that the Thalmor fed their victims corpses to. Vahl's fear of Trolls has been the longest fear she had ever. She once had to take on a Giant Frost Troll with Vath Firehall.

Minor Fears

 * Minor Drakonophobia (Fear of Dragons)
 * Minor Kinemortophobia (Fear of the Undead)

Vahl's Race
There was a poll up on the VenturianTale Facebook Page, on what race Vahl should be, Jordan said Dark Elf won by a landslide, and Khajiit won in 2nd place.

Vahl without Mods
After Jordan's long break from A Skyrim Tale, all of Jordan's Mods for Skyrim have been removed, making Vahl remain with the design of a normal Dark Elf with no hair, fortunately that was fixed.

BTS Origin
Vahl's name must have been an idea leading to this: VenturianTale, remove the -enturianT- part of it and the result is "Vale", change around the spelling to a more Elven form, and the result is: "Vahl".

Lore Friendly Origin
Vahl was named after her ancestor Vahlok the Jailor.

Pronunciation
the pronunciation of Vahl is: /vāl/ or /vale/

Lydia
Lydia was the first follower of Vahl, she is said to be a Part-Timelord when she dissappears and has "Regenerated" or "Changed her face" 3 times. Her first regeneration was when she was accidentally killed by Vahls' Unrelenting Force Shout. when they where fighting General Falx Carius. Her second regeneration occurred when she fell off a cliff while fighting an Ice Wrath. Her third regeneration was when she was caught in an explosion. She hasn't regenerated again....yet. As we know, Lydia is only part Timelord from travelling with Vahl in the Tardis, so she was only able to regenrate a certain ammount of times when she used them all up, she died from being infected by the afflicted and put down by Miraak. Rest In Peace, Lydia, First companion, Queen of the jungle. You will be remembered.

Lil' Vent
Lil' Vent is Vahl's pet bunny who is a locksmith. He is currently dead and is residing in Sovngarde.

Miraak
Vahl used to hate Miraak. But is okay with him after saving her life and helping to kill Alduin. He was believed to be murdered by Frea and Jen after defeating Harkon, but this ended up being a clone. But in episode 132, he was back at his temple fighting a blood dragon. With the actual voice of him he seems to be the real deal. At this point he is second in command.

Frea
Frea is a good friend of Vahl. She was very relctant to join the group after her father was killed by Hermaeus-Mora, so it took a few episodes for her to join the group.

Jenessa
Vahl is okay with Jenessa. She ignores Jenessa's talking mostly. Also since Jenessa and Vahl are look alikes and both dark elfs, they might be related.

Venturian
Venturian is the voice in Vahl's head that directs her in the right (sometimes wrong) direction, they have disagreed with a lot of things, but Vahl trusts him.....well most of the time.

Poet
Poet is an engineer, and is the newest member of the group. She has created Navigator (Nav for short), a little glowy robotic fly, and Vahl's dwarven rifle.She was Missing for a long time,over 10 episodes, but she appeared out of nowhere in episode 123 of A Skyrim Tale.

Serana
Vahl seems to be annoyed by Serana although seemed to actually enjoy the company. (or as the voice calls her "Ana") Although the voice at least tries to ships her and Miraak together. Then in a episode, she started to fight Miraak and almost fail a Stormcloak mission by making the chief running for his life.

Gaelan
Even though not mentioned by name in the series, Gaelan is Vahl's elder twin brother. Prior to Vahl's arrival in Skyrim, she believed Gaelan to be dead, but in reality is serving as a Captain in the Stormcloak Army. The only Dunmer to do so.

Sofie
After Vahl got a house in Windhelm she adopted Sofie. Vahl thinks Sofie is spoiled because Sofie says voting for Vahl as High Queen is "treason" talk.

Ma'isha
After Vahl vistied the Whiterun bar she met Ma'isha and soon adopted her. Although not much is known about her, she does have a rabbit for a pet. Ma'isha is a bookworm and Vahl's responsible child, possibly becoming a mage.

Farkas
Vahl's husband and member of The Companions.

Vath Firehall
Though not really considered apart of the group, Vath has caused a lot of trouble for Vahl. Vahl even had to go to prison just to free Vath of his crimes. Vath is known for walking around in circles and making Vahl rage.

Elsa
Vahl found Elsa in her ice castle with Olaf and had the Ice Queen follow them for an adventure. Elsa also grows tired of (the voice's) Frozen puns, she also blocks out doorways with her ice crystals.

Vahl's Development
Vahl has been wearing many different outfits and has had many differences through the Game, here are some pictures of how Vahl has changed overtime.
