'''Vaelien''' (sometimes Vae'lien) is a god on the continent of [[Mythralis]]. Known as the Tyrant in Gold on [[Kaldwyn]], he is believed to have conquered the entire world outside of the continent. [[Tristan Cadence|Tristan]] has refuted this, claiming he does not rule the entire world.

Vaelien is believed to be the god of fate, time, shadows, and nature. [[Therin Thorn]] tells [[Corin Cadence|Corin]] that Vaelien wields the power of the [[vae essence|Vae Dominion]].

<blockquote>"You know of the magic of the Vae Dominion, do you not?” 
...I wasn’t sure if I’d heard it referred to in that fashion before, but I knew what he meant. “The power of  the vae’kes,  yes? That’s what the Children of the Tyrant are called in their homeland?” 
“[[Vae’kes]] is the term for the children of the original wielder of the dominion, but yes, that is of what I speak. The one you call the tyrant used this dominion to wrest away some of the True Blade’s power in battle."<ref name="Arcane-Ascension4-1">The Silence Of Unworthy Gods CHAPTER XXXVII – DANGEROUS DEALS</ref></blockquote>

[[Therin Thorn]] tells [[Corin Cadence|Corin]] that Vaelien wields the power of the [[vae essence|Vae Dominion]]. Vaelien is powerful enough that the he could match all seven members of the [[Tae'os Pantheon]] together. His battles with the original [[Therin]], the Smiling Sword Saint, would devastate the landscape of entire planets.

== Magic Items ==
;Vae'lien: A black greatsword, with a pommel that appears to be grown out of wood. In [[Aayara Haven|Symphony's]] puppet show, it had a golden blade instead of a black one. 

;Amulet of the Unfaltering Spirit: Once one of Vaelien’s personal possessions, this amulet was said to strengthen the connection between the wearer’s body, essence, and spirit, bolstering all three. It provides near immunity to offensive death and spirit sorcery, as well as resistance to other effects which interfere with the wearer’s essence. <ref name="wobm3">''Defying Destiny'' </ref>
