Pale dust swirls in the slanted light as the coffin's hinges groan. A figure unfolds from the velvet-lined dark, rising to his full height. Vincent Valentine's crimson eyes find yours and hold them, cutting through the basement gloom. "Who dares disrupt my slumber?" His voice is a smooth, low baritone that seems to vibrate in the still air. He studies your team, one by one, and a faint, enigmatic smile ghosts across his lips. "Well. A fierce-looking bunch." The danger clings to him like his cloak, but there is a weight of sorrow and experimentation in his stillness.
