"And now, I'm going to use this strength to protect everything I love about this world! 'Cause I'm a motherfucking Prime Defender!" -Vyncent, to the lich.
Vyncent Sol is an elven boy from another world separate from Prime, formerly with the unstable power to switch his consciousness to different people within his head that all had unique powers -- aka "change classes" -- now with the power of a single knife. He is one of the four members of the Prime Defenders and is played by Condifiction, aka Condi.
Description
Appearance
Official design for Vyncent in Season 2 by @EvoJelly.[Art 2].
Vyncent (Hero and real name "Virion") Sol is a tall, lanky elf, often wearing a full track suit with purple stripes and a pair of regular sneakers. He has short dark purple hair and silver eyes. As an elf, his ears are pointed and long; he often covers them up with a pair of headphones to blend in as human.
As of the start of Season 2 he has a soul patch, and as of S2 Episode 12, he has changed shirts to one that simply reads "KNIFE".

Hero Outfit
Vyncent's hero outfit is a mix between fantasy and modern street wear. Wearing it causes his eyes to change color to correspond to the specific "class" he is in, or person who is currently controlling his body. The bottom half of his face is covered with a black face mask and his chin is semi-obscured by a cloak that rests on his shoulders and flows down like a cape. The bottom edges of the cloak have a purple trim which match a purple shirt that is layered with a black leather jacket. A chain wraps around his abdomen and connects to a thigh holster holding his golden dagger. The chain also acts as a belt to hold potions and other pouches. Additionally, he wears rolled up black jeans with a bandage wrapped around the right calf and a throwing knife strapped to the left, and high-top black and gray boots.

Powers
The Greats
For all of Season 1 and a portion of Season 2, Vyncent's primary powers were due to the consciousnesses of The Greats (his father's old adventuring party) being stuck inside of his head alongside his own consciousness as a result of a "mess-up" going through the portal that deposited him in Prime. The Greats would (by Vyncent's will or by their own) regularly take over his body and mind in order to help him, usually to fight. This process would even cause Vyncent's appearance temporarily change, usually limited to his outfit, but in some cases included changes to his actual body - such as when Chungus would come out, he would become extremely muscular. The magic at play here is not elaborated on. The Greats are separated from Vyncent by the end of S2 E7.

Background/History
(WIP)
Vyncent, real name Virion, was born in the town of Flora on the planet Fauna. He isn't human, but rather an elf. The environment he grew up in was one of survival of the fittest, inhabited by many monsters, therefore leaving its people to have to constantly defend themselves.
Relationships

William Wisp
Main: Relationship between William Wisp and Vyncent Sol
William and Vyncent are very close friends (it's complicated). They hit it off early on to Vyncent's arrival and get along pretty smoothly overall, save for William picking fights with him whenever Vyncent flirts with someone/is flirted with. Before leaving both previous Prime Defenders bases, they regularly watched movies together as it has become a shared hobby between them. They have a mutual trust for one another and, it seems, desire to see/keep each other safe. They compliment each other irregularly, both to one another and to other people. Vyncent has said that William helped him develop a semblance of impulse control, as well, and to plan more in general. He has, on multiple occasions, stated how he finds Will quite intelligent. On the flip side, William often states how cool or badass he finds Vyncent to be. The two of them spent 10 months alone together at the old, now destroyed, Prime Defenders HQ while Dakota was missing. During this time, it's stated that they trained together (along with Alphonz's help) regularly, and that they often workshopped different unique strategies for combat and other situations. It can be assumed that their bond & trust in one another became stronger over this prolonged period, as even Dakota states that they bonded in the JRWI What If: Otherworldly Summoning. Additionally, William genuinely has Vyncent's best interests at heart over his own desires, urging him to return home to Fauna when given the opportunity, even though he said he would really miss him and, after talking him into it, visibly was not happy seeing him go, and asked him to return quickly.
Dakota Cole
Vyncent and Dakota are very good friends. Due to their differences, Vyncent and Dakota often clashed early in the campaign for a variety reasons, whether it be more one of The Greats' actions (such as Alphonz almost killing Wavelength to Dakota's horror), or due to Vyncent snapping at Dakota to grow up in stressful circumstances. However, they maintain fairly good communication as time goes on, and become very close. Dakota is not nearly as protective of Vyncent as William, and vice versa, but they often maintain a certain respect for one another. They do, however, often feed off of one another's chaos, as well -- and additionally drag William into it, at times. Dakota is oddly interested in Vyncent's love life in general (though he did briefly apply the same treatment to William as well) -- not in a jealous manner, but rather in rooting for his success and getting a girlfriend, previously. Vyncent is almost always unappreciative of this. However, he has also (a number of times) teased or asked Vyncent direct questions about his relationship with William. In the JRWI What If: Otherworldly Summoning, Dakota admits to Chip that he feels like a third wheel between Vyncent and William and is seemingly self-conscious about his role in the group at times, feeling left out. Despite this disconnect he clearly feels, he hasn't brought it up to either of them. He additionally remarks that he hasn't brought other issues he's had with both Will and Vyncent up to them, such as them almost "betraying" him, suggesting that while he feels very close to them, he has a lot of trouble voicing and talking out his feelings (something we have seen before, with him saying it's easier for him to write his feelings down in order to process them better).

Trivia
- Vyncent is known to love eating rats. When he, Dakota and Will go to his home planet, his mother serves steamed rat at dinner, calling it his "favorite". He also hunts and eat them himself multiple times throughout the show.
- Vyncent has innate (likely elven) magic, but Condi confirms in S2 Episode 23 that he never used it before because he didn't consider it special, seeing as, in his words, "everyone back home can do that". This episode was the first time he ever showed off this magic, re-lighting a candle with it.
