Vincent is 5' 8", of fair build, with green eyes and sandy hair, and generally goes clean shaven. He keeps his clothing in good repair while travelling (he loathes dirt, truth be known), and relishes fine clothing when his situation permits it.

Vincent generally travels as a minstrel, preferring to hide the fact that he is an Adept. Has a weakness for fine wines and exotic women, and has been known to charm his way into the houses of noblemen with his musical talents and to later steal away with their daughters or wives (seldom for ransom, though). His familiars are varied; he usually maintains at least 2 herd-men, chosen as much for their good health as they are for close resemblance to Vincent himself; he often uses them as false trails away from himself, or as his own way of being in two places at once.

Vincent is fascinated by secrets 'better left unknown'. and is actively involved in seeking greater knowledge. He is utterly pragmatic, and would rather find ways to make his enemies serve his ends than waste time dueling with them outright (i.e. setting two enemies into conflict with each other, occupying and weakening them simultaneously).

He is also a priest of Cyeagha, the Tentacled Eye, and has been known to act in the service of Tsothugga, as well. Vincent was last seen on the world known as Oerth, gloating his victory over the priests of the demon-prince Mabelrode in beating them to the magickal prison Tsothugga had been bound in.

(Several of Vincent's spells are either my own creations, those of Sandy Petersen, the folks on previous RQ Digests, or a gent by the name of Micheal DeWolfe, who wrote a series of articles on RQ sorcery for Dragon magazine back in 1988.)
