Personality.

Individualistic + Charismatic + Articulate + Loyal

Β  Β  Β  Equal parts tolerable and tolerant, Vici is a freeloader who prefers to see life as a series of laidback, low-effort events in succession. If he had his way, there's little doubt that the musician with too many side gigs would whittle his time away by doing nothing much other than napping. Though Vici often spends his work hours not doing whatever he needs to than actually doing it, he's someone who nonetheless finishes the task to completion and perfection. So, really, there's nothing to complain about ... right?

Β  Β  Β  Though their attitude on life is very carefree and childish, Vici is the kind of person who believes in debts due and debts owedβ€” you scratch their back, they scratch yours. As such, despite it being extremely difficult to accrue their trust, once you have it? It's yours to keepβ€” up until Vici thinks it's ample to revoke it. But if you give them enough reason to trust you to that extent, you'll have their loyalty until the end of time. Mostly, however, their loyalty is conditional. Nothing is messier than emotional connection, but the low-budget version of a mutual give-and-take is something much more comforting and familiar.

Adaptable / Noncommittal / Carefree / Unambitious

Β  Β  Β  Vici's nonchalant take on life may not mash well with others, though if you were to ask her, Vici would give a noncommittal shrug and wave it off. She's not too big on conflict, and does her best to avoid it. Arguing with others, as is with everything else in life, is just too much of a hassle to actually bother getting into it. Most of the time, when people take issue or attempt to start a spat, they're the first one to dash out of the scene β€” mainly just because it's a pain in the tail to get involved in scandals or scuffles. Unfortunately, this causes some people to label them as cowardly, or non-confrontational. In actuality, they just really don't care.

Hedonistic - Devious - Insensitive - Manipulative

Β  Β  Β  Dulcet tones and saccharine clichΓ©s, Vici speaks as if they purr out every word, in a nature nearing theatrics. There's a lingering suspicion that everything coming from his lips is artificial. Manufactured. And you'd be right in that sense: Vici is a smooth-talker. He likes to get what he wants without resorting to physical meansβ€” and he's good at it. They're not the type of person who is above flirting to get what they desire, and she's more than happy to whisper sweet nothings to strangers if it means she can manipulate them into doing this or giving that.

Β  Β  Β  In all truth, despite maintaining a charming, lax attitude, Vici is facetious; they hide much of their true self behind this likeable persona of a ditzy, lazy musician. Underneath all of this is someone naturally distrusting, and who is more than willing to use people for their own selfish gains. They've been taught only one thing in all their years of living: this world is every man for himself.

Β  Β  Β  And they'll be damned if they ever allow themself to be on the receiving end of that lesson again.

Trivia.


  • Vici's motifs are primarily based on the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland!
  • Their birth name, Diệu, means "mysterious", "subtle," and/or "exquisite" in Vietnamese. The moniker Vici comes from the Latin term veni vidi vici: "I came, I saw, I conquered".
  • Prefers citrusy smells. Potpourri also hits the spot when it's not nauseatingly strong.
  • Despite the flower motif, they actually can't stand flowers all too much. They only associate their outward imagery with flora because it suits the persona they aim for.
  • Vici rolls over and gives up at any sign of difficulty. It's quite ironic, because he is a resourceful person who can easily fix problems if he puts his mind to it, but ... There's only one person thing she'd put that much effort into.

History.

Vici's origins vary from verse to verse, but the following remain constants:

  • His birth name is af Feles Diệu, belonging to the illustrous af Feles family. In some way, the family is brought down by the LΓ­ family. Diệu renames himself Vici, and somehow joins the LΓ­ family in an attempt to enact revenge.
  • The initial plan always succeeds in some way, but always when he wants it least.
  • She takes up some odd jobs on the side, and more or less uses them as an excuse to slack off. Sometimes these side gigs literally just consist of slapping a "job title" onto however they've decided to hassle Lorelai this verse.
  • They are a musician of some sort, with their primary instrument being the lute.

Other than that, their origin always remains a mystery, and is almost never revealed. He often makes his appearances scarce yet entertaining. Despite being Lorelai's partner, he's more often than not seen without them, as the two rarely have reasons to cross paths unless planned.

Lorelai
???

Often accompanies Vici in the various stories they are part of. The two of them have a bit of a toxic relationship, often affiliated through convenience; there is no one else in the world they could possibly rely on but one another, and yet their mutual co-existence is detrimental to themselves as people.
