==Early Life==
Vic's father, unnamed, immigrated from the [[Dominican Republic]]. Vic's mother, [[Janet Vance]], was a white American woman. Vic is the oldest of three brothers, followed by [[Lance Vance]] and [[Pete Vance]]. Their father presumably died and their mother, a drug addict, was unfit to care for them. Vic, Lance and Pete were raised by their [[Aunt Enid]] - it is not elaborated if she is the sibling of their mother or father. Pete had severe asthma and racked up expensive medical bills, while Janet and Lance continued to lead problematic lives. To provide for the rest of his family, Vic enlisted in the [[Military|U.S. Army]] in [[1984]] at age 28.

In GTA Vice City Stories, set in [[1984]], Vic is a 28-year old corporal in the [[Military|U.S. Army]], stationed in [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City's]] [[Fort Baxter Air Base]] under the watch of Sergeant [[Jerry Martinez]].  He enlisted because he needs to be responsible for his family; his mother and brother, Lance, are drug addicts, and his brother Pete suffers from severe asthma.  He is dishonorably discharged from the army after drugs were found in his barracks and he was seen entering the base with a [[Mary|prostitute]] - both meant as favors for Martinez.

Vic is given work by gun runner [[Phil Cassidy]], an associate of Martinez, who is in conflict with the [[Cholos]], a street gang and rival gun runners.  Vic then meets Phil's brother-in-law, [[Marty Jay Williams]], leader of the [[Trailer Park Mafia]], and his wife, [[Louise Cassidy-Williams|Louise]].  Vic increases the Trailer Park Mafia's power in Vice City by fighting the Cholos, whom Marty also despises. Eventually Louise, tired of Marty's abusive nature, leaves her husband to live with her sister, [[Mary-Jo Cassidy|Mary-Jo]].  Vic works for Louise, helping her weaken Marty's influence, eventually taking control of the Trailer Park Mafia's businesses in the city, prompting Marty to kidnap Louise.  Vic saves her and kills Marty, disbanding the Trailer Park Mafia and initiating the rise of the Vance Crime Family.  Vic is asked by [[Cubans|Los Cabrones]] leader, [[Umberto Robina]] to come and talk about some stuff.  After working for Umberto, Vic helps clearing out the Cholos out of [[Little Havana]].
