Noctule is a British musical project founded by Serena Cherry, best known as the lead guitarist and co-lead vocalist of Svalbard, in 2020. Launched as a personal creative outlet amidst the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns, Cherry considered the project to be a return to her roots as a black metal solo artist,^[1]^[2] prior to forming Svalbard in 2011, with its video game-inspired lyrics contrasting with the aforementioned band's heavy subject matters.^[3]

The project's debut album, Wretched Abyss (2021), is musically and lyrically themed around the 2011 video game The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim; its songs focus on certain dungeons, storylines and weapons from the game. As of 2024, Cherry is working on a follow-up album, which will be about a different game.
