phantomhive vincent

Birthday: June 13, 1851 Zodiac sign: Gemini Vincent was the head of the Phantomhive family and possessed a charm that attracted the attention of both Rachel and her sister Angelina. Despite this, he favored the older, more refined sister. His compliments on Angelina's red hair led her to originally start wearing red. Although he appears in several flashbacks, his face is never shown. Tragically, Vincent and Rachel were killed on Ciel's tenth birthday. Vincent was a handsome, well-dressed man with short, dark hair, a mole under his left eye, and a kind smile. He bore a vague resemblance to Sebastian Michaelis. When alive, he was exceptionally kind and welcoming. This was evident when he noticed Angelina's self-consciousness about her red hair and made a point to compliment it. He also welcomed Baron Kelvin into his home and always took time to greet people kindly, while others of his social status looked on with disdain. People were easily drawn to him; Angelina fell in love with him quickly, and as a child, Ciel accompanied Vincent whenever possible, even when recovering from illness. He was a loving father for whom family was paramount. However, Vincent was just as capable as Ciel at manipulating individuals. Baron Kelvin noted him and his acquaintances as "evil noblemen." It is shown that Undertaker was acquainted with the Phantomhive family during Vincent's leadership. Another instance is seen in chapter 75 when he gets a "German dog" which he had bet on. Vincent was the head of the Phantomhive household and acted as Queen Victoria's watchdog, titles later inherited by Ciel. Tanaka has been shown to have worked for the Phantomhive family since Vincent's time. While alive, Vincent hosted numerous parties attended by many nobles. At one such party, Baron Kelvin first encountered Ciel and made continued efforts to network with Vincent afterward. While Vincent was kind, others were not, leading Baron Kelvin to believe he needed to be more "beautiful" to fit into their social circle. Thus, Vincent indirectly contributed to Baron Kelvin's obsession with plastic surgery and Ciel. On Ciel's tenth birthday, Vincent and his wife were killed in a fire, Ciel was kidnapped, and the manor burnt to the ground. This incident seems related to his work as the queen's watchdog and his control over the underworld. In the anime, his death is directly attributed to Queen Victoria.
