==Biography==
===Background===
Along with her twin brother, Vax'ildan, she was born in the village of Byroden with their human mother for the first decade of their life before being sent to Syngorg with their elven father, where they were treated with scorn for being half-bloods.
Wanting the see their mother again, they saw to their horror that Byroden and everyone in it had been desecrated by the red dragon Thordak. Understanding this, Vex'ahllia took it upon herself to study dragons and hunt down the one that destroyed Byroden. The twins would learn combat training there. Vex would learn to use a bow, and Vax, daggers.
At some point during their childhoods, Vex & Vax found a wounded bear, who Vax would mercy-kill. They would then find the bear had a cub, who Vex willingly took in, naming him Trinket, gaining his loyalty as an animal companion.
===Season 1===
====Briarwoods arc====
Vex participates in a drinking contest in a tavern in Emon with her friends. Grog won and although she knew it was fruitless beating him, she did it because it was the quickest way to get intoxicated. Soon after a bar fight ensues, the barkeep breaks it up and demands to know who's going to pay for damages. As soon as Vex concedes they were broke, the barkeep kicked them out. Hope seems lost until Scanlan shows up with a wanted poster to kill a ravaging beast, they go to the council of Tal'dorei, who after some convincing, take Vox Machina to the area where a monster has been attacking. While they were there, Vex suffered from a migraine, which she gets when dragons are nearby. She looks at Fince, who gives a suspicious look. The council pass through a humble village on the way.
As they travel further, the bushes rustle and the party gets ready to fight. It turns out to be a lamb, dropping the party's guard for a moment until Vex's migraine returns. Their target finally reveals itself by stepping on the lamb, brutally killing it. A blue dragon called Brimscythe makes its presence known to the party. Vex, along with the others tries her best against the creature, but nothing she or anyone else did could phase it. Eventually, the dragon shoots his lightning breath at a mountain, causing rocks to fall down on Vox Machina before departing. The party manages to escape with the help of Keyleth's vines.
Vex soon gives exposition to the party that she feels intense pains in her head when dragons are close and that she felt it at the council, indicating someone there at least had connections to the dragon. The party then decides that the mission is no longer worth it and leave. They return to the village to see it had been destroyed by the dragon. Heart broken by their failure to save a village they had recently become familiar with, Vex and the rest of the party take it upon themselves to slay Brimscythe. 
The party returns to Emon, informing Uriel that while they did survive the fight, the dragon was still at large. Vex felt another migraine, leading her to look suspiciously at Fince. Uriel made the decision to bring the fight to the dragon, dismissing Vox Machina from the palace. Vex'ahlia then reveals she felt the presence of someone working with the dragon in the council, meaning one of them was a mole. She believed it to be Fince likely because of his creepy exterior. Keyleth asks what their next move is and Vex carries out tasks for Vax & Pike to go to Gilmore's while the rest of them look for Fince. When Scanlan, finds where Fince was going, he gathers everyone to come and see. 
After Vax picked the lock, Vex tried to assign the others to look around what was revealed to be Krieg's home until Vax found a hidden door to a cellar. They eventually find Fince stealing documents from Krieg's cellar. Fince tries to explain himself until Krieg shows up and murders him. Vex feels another migraine, further confirming Krieg was actually the one associated with the dragon all along. The party gives chase to him, landing themselves in a room filled with magic. he throws a book at him, which bounces off his head and into the painting, revealing a hidden portal, which they go through. 
What they see on the other side is a treasure trove. Vex, along with most of the party is overjoyed by the sight of the wealth, but she soon snaps herself out of it and realizes it belongs to the dragon they are after. Krieg shows back up and reveals to have actually been the dragon all along. Another fight ensues and Brimscythe begins to manhandle the party in battle a second time. When they have a moment, the party devises a plan. Scanlan creates an illusion to trick the party. With Brimscythe hoodwinked, the party each play their part in killing the dragon. Vex shoots an arrow enchanted by Pike into the dragon's throat before Grog finished him off. They then run as fast as they can as the place began to collapse. They return to the council, who congratulates and thanks Vox Machina for their victory, giving them a deed and key to their new keep as a reward. She then sentimentally looks at Vax as they now have a new home. 
That night, Vex notices Percival out of bed and asks if he had a bad dream. Percy simply asks if there was any other kind before walking off. 
The following morning, Vex is eating breakfast with her friends whilst petting Trinket. When Percy tells Grog, Vax, and Scanlan that they could benefit from restraining their antics, Vex retorts that emotions aren't meant to be bottled up. Lady Allura shows up seeking an audience. She informs them that Sovereign Uriel expects them at his banquet. They eventually make it to the banquet the following night. Begrudgingly leaving their weapons at the main booth. 
Vex is present when Percy freaks out upon seeing the Briarwoods enter the banquet. Vex asks him what's wrong and Percy cryptically tells her the Briarwoods took everything from him just as the other members come back together. Upon learning they would be staying over night, Vax offers to sneak into their room. The party, excluding Vax then attend Uriel's table. Everyone notices Percy grimace as he sees the Briarwoods. 
After Percy has an outburst from a lie about the de Rolos spewed by Delilah, the party takes him away to talk in private. Percy tells them the Briarwoods killed his entire family and conquered Whitestone, surprising the party. After learning who the Briarwoods really were, the party decides to leave and save Vax, as he was in the room they would be staying in. 
After Vex sensed Vax was in imminent danger, Grog throws the guy who made them leave their weapons out of his booth under Pike's permission. They collected their weapons and ran out of the building to save Vax, who was just about to be killed by Sylas. Vex angrily shoots an arrow at Delilah, who nonchalantly blocks it with her magic. After a long fight, Delilah later calls for their carriage driver, Desmond. The couple then take off, leaving Desmond behind. As Percy gets ready to kill Desmond, the party is stopped and seized by Uriel's guards. 
Vex and the others are taken before Uriel who reprimands them for attacking the Briarwoods and thus, ruining the banquet. Lady Allura calms him down, promising to handle the party accordingly, by putting them under house arrest. Vex informs Allura that Uriel has been influenced by the Briarwoods somehow. While she had no proof, she claimed she could get it, but Allura had made up her mind. Vox Machina gets subjugated and locked up by the guards of Emon. 
Vex takes the time to ask him what was going through his head when the Briarwoods showed up. Percy states he didn't owe them information about his past. Vex retorts that he shot Desmond and intended to kill him. While Percy concedes he may have gotten carried away, but his friends didn't experience the Briarwoods like he had. He went into depth that the Briarwoods murdered his family and made his life hell. Percy finds a secret opening in the room that leads to a hallway, which leads to a way out, but Jarett catches them and has them separated. Vex is locked up with Vax and Scanlan. Vex held some blame on Percy's actions for getting them locked up in the first place. She half-suggested to her brother that they make a run for it and leave the others behind. But they both unspokenly agreed that they wouldn't do that. 
Once Grog escapes from his confinement with Pike, he warns the others about incoming wraiths. Understanding they were under attack, Jarett gives them weapons to fend off the wraiths. 
The wraiths gain the upper hand at the start of the battle as they were in darkness and could not by hit by their victims. That changes however, when Keyleth finally conjures light, rendering the wraiths vulnerable. The party could finally hit and destroy them. 
Vex and the others (save Pike) take off for Whitestone come the morning. Vex takes part in breaking into Gilmore's shop with the other half-elves, only to be caught by Gilmore. However, he chose to be lenient and let them purchase what they came for. When Vex puts a pile of enchanted arrows on the counter, Gilmore asks what their current mission is. When Keyleth says they are hunting a vampire, Gilmore offers them holy water to aid them in their journey. Vex then asks how much it would cost them as his friends, presumably paying a high toll. After leaving with their things, they find, Grog, Scanlan, and Percy, who have stollen a horse carriage.
On the way, Vex sits next to Percy, who takes up driving. He noticed Vex'ahlia was staring at him and asked her to stop as he was trying to focus on driving. Vex claimed she thought he was practicing his "resting bitch face". Percy claimed he made that expression because they were essentially on a suicide mission looking for the Briarwoods, but claims his "bitch face" is magnificent.
Vex has Percy stop the cart when she feels a disturbing presence. It turns out to be monstrous canine creatures sent by Delilah. They capture Scanlan as he had Delilah's book. The party chases after them all the way to a cliff. Vex shoots a regular arrow at one of the dogs. Learning it was ineffective, she shot it with an enchanted arrow, blowing the creature up. The party then notices how dangerously close they are to the cliff and they all jump out, losing their carriage and stuff they bought from Gilmore in the process.
They eventually find a spot to make camp. Vex notices Vax subtly fraternizing with Keyleth, which displeases the ranger. She told her brother that the two of them never got distracted by "pretty things". When they finally make it to Whitestone, they see it in the desecrated state that it is. Percy later gains their attention by pointing to seven corpses hung from the Sun Tree, each corpse dressed as a member of Vox Machina, showing them the Briarwoods were anticipating them. Though unsettled by this, the party had to move on as a resistance member called them over to hide with them as a zombie giant was heading their direction. When the resistance member notices Percy's de Rolo crest, she asks if he's another member of the resistance. The party assures her otherwise, but they share the same goal. Percy asks her to take them to keeper Yennen as she could be of great assistance. Yennen takes them into a secret hideout, where she informs Percy that his friend Archibald Desnay has been captured and is being prepared for execution.
A few members of the party devise plans to get Archie out, but most of them don't go over well after putting them to the table, so Vex devised one of her own. She, Keyleth, and Grog would break through the front door of where the prison cells were. She blows a kiss at the guards, distracting them, as Grog kills them while Keyleth picks up their keys, which gets them in. They pass by a few other prisoners. Vex tries to move past them, but Keyleth beckons her to release them too. Vex reluctantly caves, announcing, "Congratulations! Everyone's getting out early for bad behavior!"
They soon find Archie. After they free him, Kerrion Stonefell shows up. A fight breaks out with the resistance and the guards, later ending in the resistance success, although they did lose a few members. They all flee from the prison, returning to Yennen's hideout. As Percy explains the origin story of his pepperbox, Keyleth tried to put life back into the Sun tree, she accidentally starts a fire, prompting Vax to douse it. She gets scolded by Vex for nearly revealing where they were hiding before Vax broke it up. Later, the party run off on a rescue mission for Cassandra, while spying on Professor Anders when they find the building the two are located in. Scanlan suggests he lures the guards away from Anders' house. Vex shot the idea down as Scanlan could die, but was convinced after Scanlan suggested he would act like himself to slip through.
Upon seeing a sign that Scanlan's solo mission was a success, the party runs to enter Anders' home. Grog impulsively bursts the door open, where guards were pointing bows at the party. Another fight breaks out and they kill all the guards. Percy runs off to confront Anders, which leads to a fight with animated suits of armor, something his friends show up to help him with.
After the armors are dispatched, Anders possessed Grog into attacking Percy, Keyleth, Vex, & Vax. This escalates when Vex tries to kill Anders to break the possession, but Anders possesses her, Keyleth, & Vax in the same manner. When it seems he has the upper hand, Percy eventually manages to shoot Anders' tongue out, restoring his friends' minds before killing Anders. His friends notice smoke rising from him a second time as this happened. After that, they reconnect with Scanlan outside, who warns them of a hoard of zombies heading their way.
They made a run for it to Archibald's hideout. They were not safe there for long however, as zombies burst through the door and attacked. They managed to slay the zombies, but Scanlan got bit. They eventually move out of the hideout, where they find a zombie giant heading their way. Percy manages to kill it. Unfortunately, Duke Vedmire showed up with two more giants, ordering them to kill Vox Machina. The party split up, not ready to fight them, before meeting back up at the Sun Tree. Try as they may have, more zombies showed up, making the denizens of Whitestone lose hope. But after a rousing speech from Percy, Grog encouraged everyone to kill everything. The zombies overwhelm them however.
When things seemed hopeless, Pike returned, coolly greeting the party, much to Keyleth and the others' amazement. The fight got easier from there. When the zombie hoard finally lets up, Vox Machina, along with Cassandra hunt down the Briarwoods. They go through an underground dungeon on the way. A prisoner calls out to them asking to be freed in exchange for helping them find the Briarwoods, but Percy only turns his pepperbox on the prisoner.

Vex is a tan-skinned half-elf with a brown braided ponytail complimented with a blue feather. She wears a light blue tunic with furry shoulder coverings, Brown leather bracers for her forearms and legs, three belts around her waist, brown boots, and black leggings.
==Personality==
Vex is more pragmatic than her brother. She uses bluff and flirtation skills to deceive or get past people. She is also very frugal, as she and her brother grew up rough and having to fend for themselves.
Deep down, she is sad and feels worthless to a degree, having spent her teen hood in a village where she and her brother were unexcepted by the residents. She let it affect her more than her brother did. Because of this, she would frequently make herself look like she came from someplace wealthy. She is very sensitive too, as any insults thrown at her, she would take personally.
Despite this, Vex's biggest drive was to forgive and grow as she got older.
