Vincent Crichton sees himself as the control subject in the science experiment called life. Often labeled as "boring" and "predictable", Vincent Crichton keeps his wild and experimental side reserved for pet projects. This boring lifestyle leads to him being considered anti-social and when he does join others, instead of relaxing he prefers to keep quiet and observe.

Vincent Crichton is extremely competitive and strives to become the best at every task he is given. The benefit of this cutthroat approach to life and work is that he will always give 100%, pushing himself to his physical or mental limits to overcome any task. However, Vincent Crichton’s overzealous ambition makes him insufferable to all but the most patient of companions, making it difficult to make friends while he either proves successful or utterly fails at being the best.

Vincent Crichton is not afraid to exploit any advantage or position of power he has when dealing with others, and relies on a combination of fear, intimidation, manipulation and shows of strength to convince others to compromise and lose. Vincent Crichton can be quite callous in his dealings with others, and never gives up his power. This has earned Vincent Crichton with the reputation of a “bully” and can often make negotiations difficult before they even begin.

Vincent Crichton possesses a cold and completely uncaring demeanour. This will manifest itself in the fact that when push comes to shove, Vincent Crichton will just as soon leave a struggling ally behind rather than put themselves in danger. While this may ensure his survival, it often leaves him as an outcast amongst his peers.

Without the gift of the Force, Vincent Crichton has trained rigorously with a wide range of melee weaponry and technology to better handle opponents that are able to harness the mythical power. Vincent Crichton has been conditioned to fight against foes that are Force-sensitive and are able to compensate against fighting an adversary wielding something as deadly as a lightsaber. While this adaptive combat training makes him lethal in close quarters combat against any kind of threat, they are still at the mercy of a long ranged fighter, assailant or Force user that prefers to attack the mind instead of the body.

Sometimes the only way to prepare for the worst is to always expect it. Vincent Crichton takes this philosophy one step further by never leaving home without accounting for every possible scenario he might expect to encounter. Vincent Crichton tends to always have the right tool or item for a situation and has a habit of quietly and almost smugly presenting solutions before anyone even recognizes there is a problem. This foresight is far from infallible, however, and he often finds himself at a loss in situations that go beyond what he could have imagined. While incredibly practical and often a life-saver in a pinch, his perpetually pessimistic outlook on daily life can be a bit draining on more optimistic-inclined companions.
