Biography

The son of Grimoire Valentine, a Shin-Ra scientist, Vincent grew up to become a member of "The Turks"(A shady organization within Shin-Ra known for activities such as espionage, assasination, kidnapping, and various others). After he was assigned to oversee the Jenova Project stationed at Nibelheim, he fell in love with one of the scientists working there, a woman by the name of Lucria Crescent, the assistant to Professor Gast. But Lucrecia rejected Vincent out of guilt born years earlier when Grimoire died while saving her life. Instead a relationship was eventually formed between her and her colegue Hojo.
Eventually she became pregnant, and deemed to be used as a test subject for the Jenova Project. During the process she became ill and Vincent went to confront Hojo. Hojo quickly ended the conflict by pulling a gun and shooting Vincent down, and from there he placed him in a large experimental capsule for use in Hojo's experiments based on Grimoires research on the Lifestream. The resulting exposure caused Vincent to mutate, Lucrecia wanting to revive vincent exposed him to the G Substance, a form of contaminated Mako which revived Vincent, but also caused him to become the host for Chaos, a monster born to pave the way for Omega WEAPON by killing all living things.
