Personal history
Vincent is a man who has lived too long and seen too much. He was yet another soldier in a family of soldiers who had the tendency to never come back from whatever new conflict that had occurred in Novaria. His Father died in war, and his Father's Father died in war and Vincent was sure that he was going to be no different. Vincent has fighting ever since he was 16 summers old.
Vincent has experienced the horrors of battle and the sights of man's inhumanity to man. He has seen it all Murder, Torture, Starvation, thirst, rape and slaughter. There was something about war that brought out the worst in people. It was bad enough when fighting other races like Orcs or Giants but the vast majority of the combat Vincent has seen was against his fellow man.
Vincent has watched as the men he fought with yesterday would become enemies by tomorrow. Vincent remembers when he had saved a man's life during one season only to shoot him then next. Vincent grew tired of war and settled down and married in his 26th year.
Married life was short however as he was conscripted just after his first son was born. Vincent left and returned from the battlefield in a on-off period for the next twenty years. Just staying long enough to father another child. His family expanded to three sons and four daughters. But then time came for another draft and his oldest son joined the military. Vincent's heart never ached so much.
Vincent's first son Vance fought in his first battle in his father's 48th year, and never returned. After his son's death his wife died just a year later of heart break. His other children had found their own ways to avoid the conscription. Vincent's second Son Victor became a wizard and was able to avoid the draft, Vincent's third son Vaughn married the daughter of wealthy merchant managing to bribe his way out of the draft. Vincent's daughters Valerie, Vanessa, Victoria, and Violet were women and thus normally aren't drafted for war.
With his wife gone and his children grown and away Vincent was at his loneliest. So he returned once more to yet another of his country's wars. Because war is his only friend and the battlefield is the closest thing he has to a home now.
