Physical Description

Herculean in build, he is all toned body and muscles, as well as close to 50% augmentations, most illegal in origin. Vincent is a dark tan in skin tone, his hair black, but highlighted red in punk fashion. His eyes are a silver color with copper colored outer edges to the pupil and iris. Standing 7 feet tall to further add to his impressive visage, he ripples with aggressive, yet broody intent. The beast of a man boasts a full head of semi-long hair that is shaved across one side with a design trimmed into it, and a wild bushy beard.

Personality

Vincent was once soft spoken and small, but a harsh life alone for most of his life, and unforgiving cruel backstreets have caused a metamorphosis. He is now minimally spoke, but when he does, is in a very deep set voice. It speaks with almost as much power as his heavily augmented body radiates, most of them in his arms, legs, and a few in his torso. He's generally either stoic and broody, or aggressive and the breathing presence of a death threat. He's very much a man of his word, never making threats, but promises as well as more prone to acting then speaking. Diplomacy never worked on the streets, on who is the fastest and strongest, and he's grown to embody those very ways of the crime filled hood.

History

Born in YE 17, Vincent was the bastard child of a prestigious family that ran a company under the service of the Crown on Vice. Vin was left to the streets some time after birth, that part of his life not much to be remembered. Not that he would even care to remember it, and has accepted things are what they are. He had to grow up fast on the streets of vice where as the name implies, sin and crime rule the planet. The rich and powerful mafia ruled on high while the slums became a trap for their victims, and those too poor to even leave. Young Vincent accepted the daily gunshots, smells of drugs and booze as home.

Learning to be strong was key he found out early, learning to raise his fists and fight his way to survival. He learned to hold a gun almost into his teens, learned to steal what he couldn't buy, and who to hit when they couldn't mind their own business. Things were a downward spiral until he met Lana, someone who for once actually seemed to care. They met when they were kids, and roved the back alleys as they grew close, just trying to survive together. It would be later after a few fights that Vin couldn't win that he started to dabble into illegal body augments. Each injury later being replaced with synthetic muscle and flesh.

Lucas Arturius encountered the boy in his late teens, Vincent having become more and more machine from each lost fight. The older ganger, took pity on the boy and taught him how to fight properly and effectively. The boy finding a new love in this teaching for MMA, something that would pull him from his growing draw to augmentation.

When they both were in their adult years now, Vincent was in the underground wings every week, while Lana worked the street corners. It was just enough to get by at first, but between Lana's growing debt, and his couple of wins against some very powerful people. It was clear that Vice was home no longer. But Lana vanished before he could even propose they leave, later ending up on Planet Osman in YE 38. Somehow, despite the pair being separated, Vincent searching for Lana for the next several years. Finding them again and eventually buying their contract from their owner.

It would have been a happy reunion if not for one caveat. Lana had completely forgotten him after the effects of a year long drug binge took hold, much of their memory being wiped, and even almost becoming a different person. Secretly, for once, Vincent felt an emotional pain he had never felt before. Quietly hiding it away as he acted like the contract owner Lana now knew him as, all the while keeping them close, and trying to figure out how to fix the gap between them now.

When Osman suffered an economic collapse in YE 39 towards the end of the year, the pair struggled again, before catching trip to the New Dusk Conclave in YE 40 with the last wave of settlers. Perhaps this will be a better place to call home, and maybe he can help Lana remember here, he hopes. The quieter streets would become their new home, and a fresh start that was much needed for them both.

Skills Learned

Communication

Vincent is mostly fluent in trade, and not much else, with a few phrases picked up out of other languages from the other species encountered in the backstreets of places like Vice, and Planet Osman.

Fighting

Having a love for MMA, Vin has done his time in the gym, even with the naive dream at one point of becoming a MMA fighter for a chance at something better. He's as quick and strong with his fists and legs as some of the best from constant use of this particular skill set.

Firearms

Vin has used a gun more times then he'd ever dare admit, mostly pistols and shotguns, with the rare exception of maybe a couple SMGs over the years on the harsh and hostile crime filled streets.

Entertainment

Despite his large and imposing figure, and less then friendly ways of acting, Vin is surprisingly proficient with a guitar.
