— Vance

Vance Medici is a character in Bully, and is a member of the Greasers at Bullworth Academy. He was voiced by William DeVizia.

Character description

Vance is short and lightly built. He wears the standard Greaser outfit of a black leather jacket over the normal school uniform with gray pants and brown boots. His hair is red and is worn in a low pompadour, and he has light green eyes. When seen on the football field in gym clothes, Vance rolls his right sleeve up.

Characteristics

Vance is greatly concerned with his appearance, particularly his hair, going as far as to say during combat "Don't even think about touchin' the hair!", and considers himself very good-looking. His hair is his favorite topic of conversation. His obsession with his hair is known by the other students. The other Greasers sometimes poke fun at him for it, and small talk claims the Preppies tried to set it on fire once. He appears to have a fondness for puns, and in casual conversation he can be heard asking if "[the other person] has ever accidentally swallowed a switchblade".

Vance also seems to be well-respected within the Greasers clique, and possibly high ranking as well. He frequently speaks for them when Johnny Vincent isn't around, and can often be seen with Johnny's lieutenants Norton and Peanut. In many missions, he is paired up with Lefty.

Vance is bisexual and can be kissed by Jimmy. He is sometimes thought to be fully homosexual, but he has numerous speaking lines in which he is either taking an interest in girls, or is concerned with his image around girls.

Role in game

Vance in costume during Halloween.

Vance's first appearance is during Halloween, where he dresses as a pirate. He doesn't play any role in the mini-missions, however, apart from being a potential victim.

He appears regularly during Chapter 3. He first is seen during Bait accompanying Johnny in the bike park. He continues to make minor appearances during the chapter 3 missions. During the mission Wrong Part of Town, Johnny leaves him and Norton behind at the school to beat up Cornelius while the rest of the clique returns to New Coventry, but they somehow make it back to New Coventry in time to participate in the rest of the mission. During The Rumble, he tells Jimmy that he knows where Johnny is, but he won't tell him. Jimmy then beats him up along with Lefty and Peanut.

During the events of Chapter 5, after Jimmy breaks Johnny out of the Asylum, Vance is the one who relays the message that the Greasers no longer consider Jimmy a friend of theirs, but spared him for saving Johnny who was framed by the townies for their cause.

He gives Jimmy an errand to fetch toilet paper from the janitors closet. He has another errand in New Coventry where he asks Jimmy to smash up a car because bikes are better. In this errand, he will provide Jimmy with a baseball bat. He also plays on the Greasers dodgeball team.

He also appears, wearing his pirate costume, on the small island in the bay in Old Bullworth Vale. As part of his costume he carries a board in place of a sword. This particular board never breaks despite how many times it is used, and for that reason has been mistaken for being a wooden sword. Vance will attack Jimmy on sight regardless of his faction with the Greasers when he gets on the island. Once Jimmy knocks him out, Vance won't be seen on the island again. Additionally, beating him up on the island earns Jimmy a pirate hat for his inventory.

In Cheating Time, Vance and Lucky are among the many students to buy test answers from Justin.

Trivia

• While wearing his pirate costume, Vance is considered Non-Clique rather than one of the Greasers. He socializes with the Non-Clique students, and when he's fighting the Non-Clique fight music plays. He can also be beaten up by the Greasers during Halloween. This will also happen if his pirate version is added to free-roam; he will behave just like the Non-Clique Students, although he has unique stats and will still fight like a Greaser.
• His character is believed to be inspired from James Dean as one of his knocked out quotes "You're tearing me apart" is one of Dean's famous quotes in Rebel Without a Cause (1955).
