 For seven months, Vincent stalled, making up excuses for delays and fabricating new malfunctions. But eventually, his superior in the workshop became suspicious and demanded an inspection of the bot. Fearing that he would lose Leonardo again, Vincent made a fateful decision.
-By sheer luck — or fate—the [[great_war|Great War]] erupted that very week, plunging New Kourou into chaos and confusion. Seizing the opportunity, Vincent stole the Butler Bot and vanished, disappearing into the unrest of the war’s first days.
+In a twist of fate, the [[great_war|Great War]] erupted just as Vincent’s deception was about to be uncovered. As New Kourou descended into chaos, he seized the moment, stealing the bot and vanishing into the turmoil of the first days of war
 During the war, Vincent and his Service Bot “Brother” became survivalists and thieves, operating in the [[hope|Hope Region]]. At first, they raided abandoned farms, scavenging whatever food and supplies they could find. But as the war intensified and the settlers evacuated the rural regions, Vincent movedto the [[dark_side|Dark Side]], shifting his focus to raiding [[free_state_courier_riders|Free State Courier Riders]].
 When the war ended and the [[federal_confederation|Federal Confederation]] was established, Vincent never returned to civilization. Instead, he stayed in the [[ralar_region|Ralar Region]], carving out a life as a Loner. Today, he and his Service Bot "Brother" continue their raids, targeting Trade Route shipments and isolated convoys. However, maintaining the bot is an endless struggle—Service Bots require constant energy, and exchange batteries are difficult to find. Vincent is always hunting for fresh power supplies, relying on black market dealers and scavenging operations to keep Leonardo operational.
+===== Personality =====
+  * **Traits:** Delusional, obsessive, calculating
+  * **Behavior:** Vincent is withdrawn and fiercely protective of his "brother", speaking to the Service Bot as if it were Leonardo himself. He has an unshakable belief that Leonardo’s soul truly lives in the machine, and he will attack anyone who threatens to separate them.
+  * **Values:** Above all else, Vincent values keeping Leonardo “alive”. His survival and his raids are secondary—everything he does is to find energy sources for his Service Bot Brother.
+===== Physical Attributes =====
+  * **Height:** 1.84 meters
+  * **Build:** Thin and wiry, accustomed to stealth over brute force
+  * **Appearance:** Vincent wears a typical Loner outfit, consisting of patched-together garments reinforced with salvaged armor plates. His boots are reinforced with steel tips, ideal for rough terrain.Leonardo, the Service Bot, also wears a Loner-style outfit, crudely modified to fit his robotic frame. The Butler Bot’s original plating is visible in places, though much of it has been painted black to blend in with the Dark Side. The bot’s glowing yellow optics flicker unnervingly, and its movements are almost too human—hesitations, shifts, glances—uncanny echoes of a lost twin.

+**Special Abilities:**

+  * **Survival Instincts:** Vincent has advantage on Survival checks related to navigation, foraging, or ambushing convoys.
+  * **Delusional Resilience:** Vincent cannot be intimidated by psychological warfare—he believes too strongly in his own reality to be easily manipulated.
+===== Motivations and Goals =====
+Vincent’s primary motivation is to keep his brother "alive" — even if that brother is now a Service Bot. He sees Leonardo not as a machine but as his twin reincarnated, and everything he does is driven by the need to protect, sustain, and supply his robotic sibling. Since Service Bots are prohibited in the [[the_gamma_age|Gamma Age]] due to the energy constraints of the [[peace_treaty|Peace Treaty]] with the [[alliance_of_native_tribes|Alliance of Native Tribes]], Vincent blames the system for trying to "take his brother away" and sabotaging his future.
+===== Tactical Advice for Dungeon Masters =====
+Vincent Montoya’s combat strategy revolves around ambush tactics and mobility, using his ranged weapons and Leonardo’s fire support to strike fast and disappear.
+  * **Stealth Raids:** Vincent prefers ranged engagements, using his Trando Firebow for high-damage explosive strikes and the Windstrike Rifle (via Leonardo) for precision sniping.
+  * **Survivalist Tactics:** If overwhelmed, Vincent retreats into the Dark of the Ralar Region, using his Ironstrike Slingshot for rapid suppressive fire while escaping.
+  * **Resource Management:** Due to Leonardo’s constant need for energy, Vincent may seek out the players—either to trade, steal, or raid them for power supplies.
