Vincent is a child of the Order of Valtiel, born to Clauda Wolf. He was born and raised in the Otherworld, the nightmare realm created and controlled by Alessa's dark side, fueled by anger and revenge from being burned alive by the cult. He was heavily indoctrinated by the Order's beliefs. His soul purpose for life was to bring Heather back to Silent Hill so the cult can force her to recombine with Dark Alessa, at which point they would then perform a ritual to impregnate her with their god. To do this the Mark of the Sun is carved into his chest. However when he finds Heather Vincent begins to question his beliefs. For his apparent betrayal his mother sends him to Brookhaven Asylum with his grandfather so his madness can be cured.
