Goradel was a skaa on Scadrial. Claude Aradel is a descendant of his.[1]

He worked on the plantations before being recruited into the army of the Final Empire, which he chose to join because of the lack of he held on the plantation. He was assigned to guarding Kredik Shaw, and would have died on the night of the Collapse if not for Vin, who instead of killing him persuaded him to let her through.[2]

When Elend Venture entered Kredik Shaw to rescue Vin, Goradel and his men assisted him in doing so.

At some point in the year following Ruin's release, Goradel was promoted to a captain in Elend's army. He accompanied Sazed, Breeze and Allrianne to Urteau. He attempted to deliver Spook's note to Vin, but was killed in the process by Marsh.[3]
