Vincent Valentine was once a Turk (a part of Shinra) who was in charge of being the body guard of Lucrecia Crescent, a researcher studying a theory on Chaos and Omega. While acting as her bodyguard, he fell in love with the researcher but his feelings were not reciprocated as Lucrecia already felt upset by the fact that she had been present at the death of Vincent's father Grimoire and felt that she had been at least partially responsible. Vincent still agrees to be her bodyguard however; and protects her until he is shot in the stomach by Hojo as the two had argued over Lucrecia's suffering during her pregnancy with Sephiroth and the injection of Jenova cells into her body as an experiment to create the most powerful SOLDIER.

Lucrecia, distraught over the death of her close friend revives Vincent using stagnant Mako and the Protomateria which she places in his chest. This awakens a new side of Vincent called Chaos and during his revival, Hojo experimented on him further, giving him the power to morph into several beasts with devastating strength. Once revived, Vincent leaves the Turks and goes off on his own. This also prompts a change in his attire. He switches from his Turk uniform (greatly resembles a formal schoolboy look) to his well known red outfit which consists of red coat, tattered cape, gold clawed gauntlet covering his left hand and arm, black pants and gold pointed shoes. The collar of the coat covers the lower half of his face leaving only his crimson eyes visible.
