At first glance, your initial impression of Vander is that he's probably arrogant, cocky, and selfish. He has that confident stride, flirtatious smile, and that gleam in his eye that just screams that he's up to no good.

Vander would be categorized as rather attractive, he has long, well-kept hair that's a deep violet and pale skin. His features are soft and somewhat effeminate, though he still retains an odd type of masculinity despite it. Vander’s eyes are a pale gray color that tends to reflect the color of his surroundings. His emotions are easier to read than a book, and he doesn't make an effort to hide them so you can easily tell what Vander is thinking or feeling, even if he doesn't say anything.

His sense of style is simple, yet somewhat elegant. Vander is usually found wearing armor that is easy to move around him to assist with his fighting style, preferring leather and cloth over heavy armors. He tends to choose purples and blues to bring out his hair, though whether or not this stylistic choice is conscious or just force of habit is unknown. Even when in ‘safe zones’ Vander will have his sword slung over his shoulder and a dagger at his hip just in case it is needed.




Vander can be considered a mixture between rogue and minor summoner. Most of his skills lie in his quick, easy movements that allow for dodging attacks; high health that allows him to get hit many times, though not as much as a class that acts more as a tank; and use of a series of small, quick attacks that deal a decent amount of damage.

He fights primarily with a katana when in battle. However, he does keep a dagger on hand in case he gets himself caught in a tight situation. Vander is quite skilled in fighting with daggers despite usually using his katana and should not be underestimated even if he does not have his katana on him.

Finally, he has learned a minor spell that allows him to summon a familiar to fight by his side. The familiar levels up with him and is extremely loyal to both him and his party. The spell remains active at all times unless he dismisses it or it suffers too much damage and Vander usually keeps the familiar summoned as he likes the company. The familiar, which he has named Asta, has both a passive form and fighting form

If you take away the current situation that he’s found himself in, you’d see that Vander is your typical teenage boy in quite a few of his personality traits. For one thing; he doesn’t put much thought into how his actions affect others and goes about doing things more for his own gain or entertainment. Call him self-centered or narcissistic, he doesn’t really care. He’s just in it for the fun and if Vander’s enjoying himself, then does it matter if anyone else is? Not in his mind.

Despite this, Vander does tend to be very people-oriented. He enjoys surrounding himself with others, especially if doing so increases personal gain. He’s quite good at keeping his selfish intentions well hidden and many of his other personality traits do a nice job at attracting friends. He’s very confident and personable. Vander knows what to say to turn others into putty in his hands and he can be quite manipulative without those being manipulated even realizing it.

Of course, he doesn’t do this on purpose, these negative factors are a result of his carelessness. If he really knew how those on the receiving end of his self-promoting actions felt, he’d probably feel absolutely awful. Like mentioned before, Vander is a very social person. He likes being around people and forming relationships and friendships and he truly values those that he becomes close to, despite his many traits that may make it seem otherwise.




Vander was the only child of two parents who worked extremely hard to conceive, so when he was finally born he was spoiled to death. His parents doted on his every desire and quickly found themselves with a greedy, difficult to please son. Vander wasn’t exactly a bad kid, and he never really acted the part of snobby, spoiled kid. However, because the household revolved around Vander he assumed so did the rest of the world and found himself caring more about himself and his own happiness than that of those around him.

This attitude was trimmed back a bit after his father lost his job when Vander was 10 and the family went through a rough patch. His father had a difficult time finding work due to the circumstances of the job-loss and his mother had never gone to college, intending to just be a full-time house mom, and also faced difficulty when looking for work. Suddenly Vander wasn’t handed everything that he wanted on a silver platter and, surprisingly, he took the transition rather gracefully.

Unfortunately, the family situation worsened and Vander began exhibiting signs of depression around the age of 15. Seeing their beloved son in such a way encouraged Vander’s parents to work harder and Vander’s father finally found a decent job and a few months later his mother found one as well. Things began looking up for the family and soon enough the household atmosphere began brightening.

Vander’s parents bought him a computer when he was 16 and he soon found the wonders of MMORPG’s and immersed himself in them eagerly. These games helped him overcome his depression and as he became more skilled he gained more confidence and spirit.
