Torchlight II

In Torchlight II (Game), it is revealed that "Vanquishers" are not lone heroes, unlike Destroyers and Alchemists, but instead are a vast army or militia of peacekeeping soldiers who protect the nameless Torchlight world. The Alchemist from the first game returns as a high-ranking leader, and is the only one of the three original heroes to be given a name, now known as "Commander Vale".

Vale is no longer playable, but does show up in the plotline. She is seen assisting the Estherians against the fury of the corrupted Alchemist.
