Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII-


"Hmph. Guess I have no choice. It's time...to save the world."
—Vincent

A year following the events of Advent Children, in 2010, Vincent was called into duty once again. When the mysterious group Deepground began attacking people around the world, Vincent Valentine and the World Regenesis Organization
started investigating. Deepground, they found, was a group based from
secret experiments underground in the Shinra Building that were trying
to awaken the final Weapon, Omega. To do this, they were hunting down Vincent Valentine, who housed the powerful Protomateria needed to control Omega.
Vincent was forced to fight off the constant attacks while trying to
solve the mystery of his own dark past. Eventually, he got his answers
with the help of a young Tsviet named Shelke.

Deepground was able to steal the Protomateria straight from
Vincent's body, and Chaos became increasingly unstable within Vincent
throughout the game. At the end, it was revealed that a digitized
version of Hojo was the mastermind of the plot. Chaos was finally
completely unleashed and defeated Hojo, Deepground and Omega. When
Vincent concluded his mission, he disappeared within the Crystal Cave
where Lucrecia lay for some good time. Cloud's party eventually sent a
befriended Shelke to retrieve Vincent, who had made his amends and
forgiven himself for his "sin".

Vincent takes control of Chaos.



Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII- revealed that when
Vincent confronted Hojo he was shot, and turned into a sample for
Hojo's metamorphosis experiment. The experiment left Vincent with three
demonic transformations, but he was left in a death-like state. Upon
discovering this, Lucrecia took his body and attempted to save him by
implanting the Chaos gene within him. While Vincent was revived by this
process, he became Chaos itself and had no control over the form. The
Protomateria then appeared and Lucrecia used the materia to suppress
Chaos and allow Vincent to have some control over the transformation.
In a flashback, Vincent woke up on a table in a lab, and looked down to
find himself in his Galian Beast form.
It is ambiguous precisely what happened between Vincent's
awakening in the laboratory and the beginning of his extended slumber.
In a note written by Hojo - the first clue provided for uncovering
Vincent - he claimed to have put Vincent to sleep in the basement
himself. While there was originally much conjecture as to whether
Vincent's sleep was fully voluntary versus induced because of his own
attitude toward it and the mystery of his in-game attire and long hair,
a flashback scene in Dirge of Cerberus clearly illustrates Vincent was
experimented on and then immediately put to sleep in his current
appearance as a Turk. His change of appearance to his current design is
unexplained.

edit Equipment and Stats


CG render of Vincent



In Final Fantasy VII, Vincent uses a variety of different
pistols, revolvers, shotguns, and rifles. His default weapon is the
Quicksilver pistol, which he can be seen carrying in Nomura's artwork.
His ultimate weapon is known as Death Penalty.
It becomes stronger the more enemies are dealt the killing blow with it
equipped. Vincent's guns typically have mediocre attack power, but two
of them have a 255% hit rate, meaning they will never miss, and all of
his guns are Long Range. The 255% accuracy makes Vincent a good choice
for the "Deathblow" Materia, which inflicts double damage but has low
accuracy normally - the 255% hit rate can make up for this.
Vincent's primary weapon in both Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children and Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII- is the handgun Cerberus,
named after the three-headed dog which guarded the Greek underworld for
its three barrels (each of which is ornamented with a dog head in place
of the iron sights). There is also a key chain attached to it that
bears a Cerberus-shaped charm. It holds a total of eighteen rounds and
fires three each time the trigger is pulled, making it extremely lethal
to a normal person. The weapon can be upgraded to either be lighter,
hold more ammo (80 rounds at most), or do more damage.
During the course of "Dirge of Cerberus," Vincent also acquires
two other guns. One, a bolt-action rifle, is christened the "Hydra."
The other, the "Griffon," resembles a Thompson machine gun, and has a
rapid-fire ability, although shoots slowly enough that it is possible
to only shoot one bullet. All three guns Vincent acquires in this game
can be equipped with accessories, such as longer or shorter barrels, a
scope, and Materia.

edit Limit Breaks

Vincent's Limit Breaks are quite different from many others. There
is only one Limit Break for each of the four levels. When he initiates
one, he turns into a monster, who is constantly berserk, and stays that
way until the battle is over, win or lose. When he shifts his form,
Vincent's stats increase and his HP refills, but he cannot shift back
at will. Thus, while his Limit Breaks can be very powerful, they are
quite risky. If Vincent should be knocked out though, he will transform
back to his normal form. Vincent is also notable in that he learns his
new Limit Breaks the fastest of all party members, most others of which
need to kill upwards of 70 enemies to learn their new techniques.
