Vinc rarely chews with his mouth open or spells his name with an
"e". He's more emotionally stable than a knot of toads
and can eat ordinary burritos with a single bite.
Vinc votes responsibly and washes his hands frequently. Typically
his family is pleased to see him and (since getting proper haircuts)
beasts rarely run away at the sight of him. Vinc can be heard referring
to himself in the third person.
Vinc has Amazing Powers of Observation.
