History: Vincent was born in Santo Domingo in the Dominic Republic but he moved to Cleveland, Ohio at an early age. His parents wanted a better life for him and his older brother Carlos so they took every last bit of what they had and moved to America. Growing up his father taught him the values of hard work and helping others. Vincent looked up to his father while Carlos always looked for an easy way. The two brothers were complete opposites Vincent was kind and caring while his brother was like a rapid dog looking for a fight. Vincent found a passion early on in music his father taught him how to play guitar and it became a bonding experience for the two. During school he kept to himself mostly until he met his best friend Jon Hagger. The two of them bonded over music and the rock n' roll lifestyle the two of them wanted to make it big well at least Jon did for Vincent it was about making music that's all he cared about.

The two soon formed a band called "Bloody Existence" with a few other friends from school. Vincent was on lead guitar while Jon was vocals, Danielle Garrett was on bass, Thomas Jean was on rhythm guitar and Ryan Williams was on drums. It was a serious thing for Vincent and he took a lot of pride in this. They soon began to play local shows around town. Vincent's father was proud of him but he wanted to let him know that this was possibly temporary as it was hard to make it big. Vincent kept up with juggling both the band and school as did the other members. They released an EP after high school and did a show to promote it. The rockstar life was amazing and Vincent was enjoying every minute of it. He look after the other members of his band whenever they partied. They soon who were in a studio getting ready to release their first album called "A Pointless Life." It was hard and raw every member put their heart into it and soon they started to see small success with it but soon fighting in the band started with Jon's drug problem as he was doing coke and it was spiraling out of control. When a fist fight happened between Jon and Ryan. The rest of the members broke it up and Ryan quit with Danielle leaving with him not wanting to deal with the drama. Soon they were looking for new members and they got it with Tyson Boseman on drums and Scarlet Black on guitar with Thomas moving to bass. 

Vincent sat down with Jon and the two of them talked about Jon's substance abuse problem. Deep down inside Jon needed help and he knew it. So Vincent promised Jon he would look out for him as they were just about to go on tour with The Pretty Reckless. The two of them were brothers for life and Vincent would do everything in his power to look out for Jon. The tour soon began and the two bands got along famously. The tour was going great until Vincent got a call from his father that Carlos was in jail for drunk driving and as much as Vincent wanted to be there for his family the tour was something he didn't want to give up on. So he chose the band over his family and the next day they were scheduled to play in Georgia when their tour bus crashed. Vincent was asleep but woke up to hear screams and looked out the window to see people eating each other. He got out with his bandmates but being trapped on a highway was bad luck so Vincent grabbed his guitar as he didn't know what was happening and escaped with Jon and Scarlet. Tyson was attacked by the dead and couldn't escape and Thomas stayed on the tour bus frozen in fear as the dead surrounded it.

The three remaining members looked out for one another and food was getting scarce and trying to survive was hard as Jon was acting paranoid. While Vincent was asleep Jon convinced Scarlet to go with him thinking the two of them would be better if they left Vincent behind who he considered dead weight and wasn't tough enough to make the hard calls. When Vincent woke up he saw that Jon and Scarlet were gone leaving him only a knife, a crowbar and his guitar. That was three weeks ago and Vincent now found himself driving in Burlington, Vermont. He wasn't going to betray what his father taught him the values he instilled in him. He figured this was mean't to happen and he held no ill will towards Jon or Scarlet.
