The Vaal

The Vaal are an ancient race of Wraeclast. All but 3,126 of the Vaal were killed by the Vaal Cataclysm instigated by the experiments of Doryani, Queen's Thaumaturgist and Atziri, last Queen of the Vaal. The survivors found refuge in the nearby Azmeri tribes, eventually entirely assimilating into their civilization. They were the first known users of gems and practised sacrifice.

History

The Vaal are the oldest identified race in Wraeclast, almost completely forgotten in modern times. At the height of its prosperity, it was the most powerful nation in the known world.

The Vaal were the first known users of virtue gems Vaal bloodpriests discovered that the souls of those recently killed would, for a short moment, search for any other source of life. In this moment, they could be captured in a vaal skill gem. Then, the abilities of the gem would be empowered by these souls.

Human sacrifice and blood sacrifice were extremely prolific in Vaal society. They human sacrifice as a way to empower their constructs, and through them their civilization. The Vaal also engaged in slavery.

Origins of the Vaal

Due to their antiquity, very little is known about the origin of the Vaal. Despite the name "Proto-Vaal" often given to the primeval civilization, no connection between the two peoples has been proven.

According to Vaal mythology, the origins of the Vaal trace back to a conflict between the historical figure Xibaqua and "the gods", resulting in the creation of a "droplet of pure light" - the first Vaal. Little is known about Xibaqua, the mentioned "gods", whether the story is rooted in reality, or the exact nature of their conflict.

On Oriath

Although traditionally confined to the Wraeclastian mainland, spanning the majority of the regions later conquered by the Eternal Empire, it is known that Vaal culture had once extended to the shores of the island of Oriath. Queen Atziri also used Oriath as a "vault" to keep valuable goods. One such good was the Elixir of AllureElixir of AllureFamous for her many lovers, those that did not
come willing to Atziri, came by liquid persuasion., a famed love potion said to have been kept in the skulls of Atziri's favourite lovers. In the Act 10 quest No Love for Old Ghosts, the exile retrieves this potion from the Ossuary for Weylam Roth.

Ralakesh

The god Ralakesh, "Master of a Million Faces", was a Vaal god who rose to prominence at some point before the reign of Atziri. He was obsessed with the control of humanity through their "animal instincts", and came under the control of a certain Vaal city. His experiments drove his citizens to the brink of extinction, and he was forced to enslave many of the primitive Azmeri to repopulate his domain. In the Act 7 quest The Master of a Million Faces, the exile encounters and kills Ralakesh to claim his soul and empower their pantheon.

Yugul

Yugul was a Vaal scholar obsessed with the study of fear, which he believed to be an idea upon which the "bedrock" of the "great cosmos" was formed. He would induce terror in children and capture their reactions in "eldritch mirrors" designs of his own creation that could "petrify fear" for further study. He used this understanding of human nature and control over fear to enter the halls of Vaal leadership, and eventually scare enough Vaal into worshipping him, allowing him to ascend to godhood. IN the Act 8 quest Reflection of Terror, the exile encounters and kills Yugul to claim his soul and empower their pantheon.

Reign of Queen Tetzlapokal

Queen Tetzlapokal, described by scholars as a "waif of disturbing proclivities", was a devotee of the goddess Arakaali who lived at some point before the reign of Atziri. According to literature, she had a deep fascination with mortality and the "inert human form". Her subjects were requested to deposit the bodies of their deceased loved ones on the steps of her palace, upon which the bodies would be taken inside. Eramir is unable to describe exactly what was done with the bodies taken inside, but his dialogue suggests some form of necrophilia. The Vaal City rose to prominence during her reign.

Reign of Queen Atziri

Queen Atziri was the last Queen of the Vaal, as the actions of her and her thaumaturge, Doryani, led to the Vaal Cataclysm and the fall of the Vaal.
