I think I know what the Vake is. Well, it is only have a theory, and not even a scientific theory, it's not like I have undeniable confirmation. Nevertheless, for fear of the Duchess's wrath, I shall err on the side of cation and post all of it inside of spoiler tags.
...
It also occurs to me, just as I write this, that I do not actually pursue the Bag A Legend ambition (which I presume gives more and more hints as to the Vake's nature as it advances) so for all I know what I am posting could actually be common knowledge to thousands of Neath dwellers. Eh, what am I going to do, change my current ambition to check that's not so? Pft, I'm too lazy for that, so without further ado:
[spoiler] The Vake is the Masters, any of them. It is what the Masters look like when they are not wearing clothes. Why do I think this? Well...
1) http://www.failbettergames.com/?p=1395 This blog post more or less tells us that the Masters are bat creatures from space.
2) There is at least one hint (perhaps those of you pursuing the Bag A Legend Ambition have received more) that the Vake has bat like features. 'They say it's not a monster at all. It's a man who dresses up as a bat. To, ah, prowl the city by night. But that would just be stupid.'
3) The third reason... well... the third reason is more complicated. At All Hallows I saw a glimpse into the future. I honestly can't remember if I had to spend Fate for it or not, so I will only say this, I fear I saw the wrong future. But nevertheless I learned valuable lessons from it that I am still using to this day. And there were hints that also supported my theory. [/spoiler]
