Significant Parts of His Backstory:
- Vi’s mother, Emma Wake, was the adopted daughter of the king. She met his father, Levi, when she decided to join the Survey Corps. Her father died and she became Queen shortly after Vi’s older sister Atrius was born.
- When Vi was twelve years old, he ran away from home after a fight with his parents and stumbled upon a house with a girl who was trying to escape. She seemed extremely mistreated and bruised, so he kidnapped her and brought her home, and they kept her there until they could find a better living situation for her. Later on, Vi would learn that she was a child prostitute.
- The girl (Glade) and Vi became very close friends. She was everything to him. After Vi joined the Scouts, she wanted to follow him to protect him. He begged her not to, but she joined anyway and died on her first mission out.
- After this, Vi became very depressed. He met a girl named Lani who was very kind to him and listened, and she eventually wanted to date him. She would frequently ask for things material-wise and Vi would purchase them for her. She eventually convinced him to sleep with her and then left because she decided she had gotten what she wanted.
- Vi was then driven back into a deep depression and ended up getting into things like extreme drug abuse and alcohol addiction. He would sometimes not come back to the house for weeks on end.
- One day, Vi came home to discover that Atrius and Levi had placed a piano in his room. Atrius explained to him that she knew he always liked the sound of the piano and that she thought learning it would help him get better. He was about to destroy the piano in a rage when Eris told him to stop and began to cry. Never having seen Eris cry before, Vi stopped immediately and promised he’d try it out. He became addicted to learning the instrument and once he was done he moved on to others.
- He pulled himself out of addiction by focusing on training and music, and now can play many instruments.
- His mother was assassinated two days before his 18th birthday and he now has the title of King, and his sister, Eris, offered to take the crown and now rules as Queen.
