Personality
Personality: Vincent is kind to everyone because he is obviously nice to people he doesn't know. At times, he becomes very cocky escpically during a bet. Vinc bets and gambles often due to his large amount of money. He can be a very sly or sneaky character and he usually gets out of any trouble. He is very head strong and you can't tell him what to do. He is very clever and can usually out smart anyone.
Even since he was appointed leader of Protettori he has chosen his moves carefully and has been nearly mistake proof. Being part lion gives him the bold and powerful feeling which gives him solid confidence to do anything. Unsurprisingly, Vincent is pretty strong and works out often. At times, when away from the clan, he is self centered. In his lifetime, Vinc has been loved by many people for his intelligence.

History: Vincent was born and dumped. He was with his mother for only a day and a half before being left at the door step of James Cord -- the man he would soon call his father. Vinc didn't know the truth until James told him when he turned eleven. At first he was devastated and was really mad, but when James told him to calm down he took control over his anger and did as he was told. Vinc realized he was to good for them, but what he didn't realize yet is what he truly was.
All his life he grew up in the clan and knew no different. Up until he was sixteen he thought he was part of the normal sort and not a 'mythical' creature. He knew of weres, vampires, etc. all his life, but didn't say a word. What he and his high school friends noticed the most was that Vincent had the tendency to growl when he was angry. On October 13, 1995, there was a full moon hanging in the sky that Friday night and Vinc was feeling strange. He was sitting on the family room couch during his first Change. As his spine began to shrink into one of a lion's he cried out in agony as James came rushing in. The first few times were quite painful until he got used to it. The next day, James announced to the Protettori Clan he was one of them.
Years passed -- Vincent was pulled out of public school, home schooled, and was James' apprentice without even knowing it. As he became older, so did his adopted father. He soon head to say good-bye to James and it was heart shattering. When Vincent was 25, he sat beside the once he called his father and held his hand as his life drained out of him. James turned to Vinc in his last moments and said, "Son, I love you. Your parents gave you to me because they thought they couldn't love a beautiful creature like you. I don't know how those words came out of their dirty maws, but it did," he took a ragged breath, "But you have been with me for 24 years, 11 months, and 29 days and have learned each thing in being a leader. I, James Vincent Cord, appoint Vincent Scott Cord, the next leader of the Protettori dei deboli Clan. Lead us well, son." Then he drifted far away into the place of the unknown.
