Biography[]

Philosopher's Stone[]

In September 1991, Vincent started Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He was friends with Draco Malfoy and Gregory Goyle. On the Hogwarts Express, they found Harry Potter's compartment which was sharing with Ronald Weasley. Harry declined Draco's offer of friendship so they started fighting. Ron's pet rat, Scabbers started biting Goyle which caused them to run away.[1]

Vincent and Gregory were known for being Draco's henchmen. One day, Draco stated that he wanted to duel Harry and he asked Vincent to be his second. However, it was a ruse to get Harry into trouble.[2]

Chamber of Secrets[]

In December during the school holidays, Vincent and Gregory stayed at the school because Draco was staying. Harry and Ron put a Sleeping Draught in two slices of chocolate cake and when Vincent and Gregory ate their slices, they fell unconscious. Ron took a piece of Vincent's hair for a Polyjuice Potion. They woke up confused later on in a cupboard. Ron impersonated Vincent to ask Draco if he was the Heir of Slytherin. He and Gregory woke up later.[3]

Appearance[]

Vincent is very large and has long, gorilla arms. At the age of twelve, he has a bowl-cut hairstyle.[3] Over the summer between his third and fourth years at Hogwarts, he appeared to grow at least a foot higher.[4]
