Personality:
Vash is a diligent and stoic person who would do his very best both in his work affairs and in his personal affairs. He does not like to meddle in others' affairs if it does not concern him. He gets irritated easily when a situation crops up which concerns him and he would lose his temper rather easily as the stress of bottling his feelings up would swell up over time at a rapid pace. He is meticulous in nature, always being prepared for any problem if they surface. He immediately deals with the root of the problem efficiently without any side-tracks or digression from the target. Plus, he is the type who barks but do not bites; threatens at most.
When he is praised or complimented, he tends to shrug them off with a cold and stern look in order to hide his emotions of happiness. This is probably due to the strict rules and regulations in the military. Even though he tends to display arrogance and selfishness, he is overly-protective of people whom he trusts and especially his sister. He would rush off to aid and help them if they are in trouble which contradicts his usual demeanor. Even though his family is rather affluent, he does not boast about it to others.
History:
Vash works as an army officer in the Swiss military army. He is a 1st lieutenant in rank and he works seriously to maintain order in his company. His captain acknowledged this fact and awarded him a vacation trip but he humbly refused it. His decision changed when Lili found out about the rejection and she, at great lengths, managed to acquiesce Vash into accepting the vacation by stating that she will thus onwards be working in Lucerne.
He climbed his way up the military rank rapidly through his proficiency in resolving matters, his strong determination to succeed and his undying will to preserve the tradition of attaining a high rank in the military. His father tends to be strict towards him and this left quite an impression on Vash even though Vash had learnt of discipline all by himself. His father had already retired his services in the army and he hopes that his son can attain an even much higher rank than he had during his service time.
He is very adept in handling firearms and this has allowed him to be able to obtain his own firearms license which enables him to buy his very own military rifle and pistol which he carries around with him all day.
He found some work at resort Du Lucerne as a mountain ranger and a sports equipment retailer even though his family is opulent enough to support him. Even though this is a vacation, he constantly works out and trains out of habit.
Roleplay Sample:
The smell of the crisp mountain air, the sensation of a cool breeze. Vash embraced the refreshing sensation which the freshness of the mountain gave him. The mundane city life had worn him off spiritually and occasionally, his father would bring his family to Lucerne to alleviate the stress of living in the city. As he closed his eyes and allowed the mountain wind to sweep his fair blonde hair gently to the side, he picked up the all familiar scent of wood burning in a fireplace and a brief smell of sausages frying on the pan. He gave a serene smile. Those really brought back the nostalgic memories of the tranquil past even though it's just for a brief while.
He now stood in front of the building of the resort, struck with paranoia of whether Lili had arrived safely. Before heading to Lucerne, Vash had to do some work assigned by his father while Lili,being unable to suppress her excitement, went ahead first. Vash was worried about Lili. He managed to complete assigned task within a relatively short amount of time. Now, he stood in front of the resort. He glanced at the resort as a whole one last time, exhaled out deeply, and he began to walk forward assertively into the resort, pondering at the thought of having a nice cup of hot swiss chocolate once inside.
