Personality
General: His upbringing in Anvil forced him to combine the high-minded ideals of the Chapel with a hard-edged practicality and pragmatism. He doesn’t start fights, but he absolutely will not hesitate to finish them. He learned young how to pick locks and pockets, but only steals from people who can afford to lose a few (dozen) septims.
He prefers to solve problems without violence whenever possible, and takes care to treat everyone he meets with courtesy, even if they’ve not yet earned his respect. He doesn’t trust easily, but for those who earn it he’s a steadfast and loyal friend - another thing he learned growing up was that true friendship and loyalty are rare things, to be treasured when you find them. He’s also fiercely protective of his friends and loved ones - though whether this is an effect of the above-mentioned idea about friendship and loyalty, or a dragon’s instinct to defend what’s his is anyone’s guess.
Not surprisingly for someone raised by Dibellans, he’ll take men and women both to bed with equal enthusiasm, and is quite willing to try anything once.
Morality: If it comes down to the rules/law vs. doing what he feels is right, he'll ignore the former without a second thought, and there's very little he wouldn't do to keep 'his' people safe and happy, but he does have limits. He tries to solve problems peacefully if at all possible, only fighting in self-defense or defense of his friends.
Intimate Relationships: He's a very sociable, out-going sort, so friendship is definitely on the table, along with sexual encounters - he was raised by devotees of a sex goddess, whose sole command to her followers can be very easily interpreted as "go forth and bone," and he tries his best to obey that.

History
• He is a war orphan, raised in the Great Chapel of Dibella in the city of Anvil, Cyrodiil; as far as he’s concerned, the priestess who raised him is his mother, blood related or not
• He apprenticed with the local Mage’s Guild and proved to be an eager student and a quick study; at age 16, he was given the necessary recommendations to attend the College of Whispers in Cyrodiil’s capital, but opted for independent study instead. He then spent the next five years traveling the various provinces, improving his magical skills and learning a few new ones like archery and alchemy. This is also when he heard of the College of Winterhold in Skyrim, a magic school not unlike the university, and his curiosity was piqued.
• Age 25, attempted to cross the border into Skyrim, was arrested after getting lost and stumbling into an ambush meant for a group of Stormcloaks which include Ulfric Stormcloak himself. The entire group were taken to Helgen to be executed, but the proceedings were interrupted by a dragon attack. During the ensuing chaos, a sympathetic legionnaire freed Vanyel and helped him find armor and weapons before they escaped Helgen Keep and made for the town of Riverwood. (Ulfric Stormcloak and a few of his officers also managed to escape.)
• The next three years were spent running all over Skyrim, as he first joined the College of Winterhold then became its Arch-Mage after several long quests and a drawn-out battle with the man who’d killed the previous Arch-Mage and the woman who would’ve succeeded him, then joined forces with an order of vampire hunters called the Dawnguard to stop a mad vampire lord from blotting out the sun, and finally defeated the previously-mentioned dragon thus preventing The End of the World As We Know It.
• After his defeat of Alduin, cultists from the island of Solstheim arrived in Skyrim, looking to kill him as 'the false Dragonborn.' This prompted him to travel to Solstheim to investigate both the cult and their leader, Miraak - though not without drawing the attention of Hermaeus Mora, Daedric Prince of Forbidden Knowledge, and being claimed as Mora's champion.

Tenets of Anvil's 'Dibella Cult':
Ethical Hedonism - The sect's guiding principle, that sex is nice and pleasure is good for people. They take the commandment to "open your heart to the gifts of love" as a directive to share those gifts, and the associated pleasures, with as many people as possible. They also reject all notions of being ashamed of sex and sexuality, and disdain forced modesty. Anything goes, so long as everyone involved consents and enjoys themselves.
Enthusiastic Consent - A conscientious Dibellan seeks clear and enthusiastic consent from their partners, and accepts rejection gracefully.
Sex Education - The priestesses of Anvil seek to educate as well as offer pleasure; they are proud to offer lessons on anatomy, preventative measures against pregnancy and disease (pre- and post-coitus), how to perform certain acts safely, sensual massage, and fertility-enhancing rituals and potions.
Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil - Not only is rape an unconscionable crime, it's considered sacrilege in the eyes of Dibella - what with Her being goddess of love as well as desire, nonconsensual acts go against her teachings as well as the sect's creed of ethical hedonism.
*Modded (for the purposes of RP, invented) spells. Transmute is game canon but thanks to mods Van knows/invented a couple of variations - one to turn any flora to firewood and one to turn any gem into an empty soul gem
