The Vae'kes are demigod "children" of Vaelien (sometimes Vae'lien) who all have the ability to permanently steal magic from others. The Vae'kes are very resilient and hard to hurt. It is unclear if the Vae'kes are really the children of Vaelien or something else. They are believed to be immortal. Vae'kes are typically slightly weaker to light and light-based mana types. They are known as Children of the Tyrant on Kaldwyn.
The personalities of the Vae'kes are warped by their build up of Vae essence. Some of the Vae'kes lean into this change heavily and others take extreme measures to retain their sense of self. This creates something of a factional divide.[1]
The Vae'kes magic theft interacts with multiple layers of self, however, the interaction with the layers are just a component of the theft, not how it works.[2]
Vae'kes generally translates to "that which takes" (kes meaning that, vae meaning take). [3]
