He is the leader of the group of mercenaries spotted by [[Bluth]] which includes [[Gaz]] among their numbers.They spot [[Tvlakv]]'s caravans and begin chasing slowly on foot, following the trail of crushed [[rockbud]]s left behind by the [[chull]]s.{{book ref|sa2|15}} His band of deserters are rugged and dirty, but take good care of their weapons and equipment.{{book ref|sa2|20}} There are roughly 25 men in his band{{book ref|sa2|20}}{{book ref|sa2|15}} Eventually [[Shallan]] Davar turns around and uses her [[Surgebinding#Illumination|Lightweaving]] in order to convince his crew to fight on her behalf. He does not take her seriously and begins ordering Gaz to tie her up and take her hostage. Vathah and two others are not convinced but the rest of his men are swayed and charge into the fight, the first of whom is Gaz. He is angry that he loses seven men in the battle, which he feels will not exonerate him or his men for what they did nor stop the recurring nightmares. He then questions Shallan on why she seemed so regal during their meeting before the fight, but then looks like a spoiled child afterwards. She dismisses his questions, at which point he grabs her and becomes threatening until distracted from her by [[Pattern]].{{book ref|sa2|21}} He dislikes the mission as a whole, and thinks that Shallan will not be able to do anything for them.{{book ref|sa2|21}} Vathah is also against art of any kind in the beginning, sneering at those who ask for drawings.{{book ref|sa2|30}}
