I need more info about Cyberpunk Vince 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

My boy?? The most beautiful boy in the whole entire universe??? My current favorite subject???? Why ofc I'll be happy to oblige!! The lore is a bit loose for now bc I'm not super knowledgeable about cp2077 lore, but this is what I have so far:

(Also more pictures bc I can never get enough of him)

he came from humble beginnings, his father died early when he was a kid and he and his mother lived in heywood for a good portion of his childhood(canonically corpo v grew up in charter hill but also idc <3 that's not vince he's not rich kid material)

his mom sunk herself into debt to pay for his tuition at Arasaka Academy. That's one of the reasons why he never quit, despite the pressure really weighing down on him and causing him to develop depression and anxiety as a teen. Working for Arasaka did help him pay off the debt, but he could never find the proper time for therapy, and as a result he's. Well. Traumatized dbdjdjkd he's anxious, highly demanding of himself and has a warped sense of self esteem(ie "I am only good for something as long as I'm good at my job")

he's also quite blunt bc of the convivence with other corpo types. He's nice, but he just talks Like That. Comes off as a bit of an asshole at first but as the story progresses ppl realize he's actually very sweet and mindful, and lives and dies by his principles. He actually softens up a Lot after being kicked out of Arasaka, slowly getting out of the corporate mindset and going back to his old self. Very likely to treat people with compassion and kindness and offer them a shoulder to cry on when they need it

he still comes off a bit blunt tho djjdkckckck I attribute most of this to the voice acting But it's fine. It makes for a fun character trait cjjckckck

lowkey superstitious. He's not religious but likes to listen to Misty talk about spiritual stuff and starts kinda believing in some of it. Really enjoys her tarot readings. Lowkey starts saying shit like "well you see this is because I'm a virgo"(he's joking ofc. Or is he)

stealth hackerman sort of guy. I've nuked many a room full of enemies without being seen a single time while playing as him <3

That's mostly what I have for now xjskkckc will probably continue building him up as I play more of the game c:

#ADDITIONALLY I'm cooking up something in my head where like #since pepper also grew up in heywood (w the streetkid background) they could've known each other as kids #and been friends and had little crushes on each other #but then vince went to the academy and they lost contact and went down different paths in life #but then they meet again somewhere in the main story idk where yet #and like there's still some of that connection they had while at the same time there's some strangeness #bc they've become different ppl. but there's some things that never changed #so in a way they know each other but they're also getting to know new sides of each other #pretty much like in vtmb jdjdkfkkf I'm basically getting a lot of the general ideas from there and adapting them to here #his backstory with his mom also mirrors the vtmb version #and the main difference in his personality is that here he's blunt but in vtmb he's quiet and stoic #the effect it has on ppl is very similar tho. they think he's arrogant and aloof on first impressions jdjfjjcjck #so he's mostly the same guy with some differences for the sake of adaptation #asks #cp2077 pt #oc.vince77
