History
Vash was born with his twin brother Nai on the 5th SEEDS ship from one of the other plants on board. From the time he was born, he was connected to a human caretaker named Rem Saverem. Vash and Nai grew much faster than other children and within that first year would grow roughly as much as a ten year old human would.

Rem was responsible for educating the pair, including things about plants, the ship, humanity and skills like playing the piano. Vash was very close to Nai, oblivious to the fact that Nai seemed to find him to be a bit of a pest. He always wanted to hang around his older brother. Vash also greeted all of the humans whether they were asleep or not on board.

The catalyst for the end was the discovery the pair had of finding Tesla - a previous Independant like them who had been tormented and dissected for science. Nai got very angry, and Vash got very sad. Vash gave Nai the code to the ship's console, simply as something to share with his brother and Nai took the opportunity to destroy the fleet, crashing humanity down on the worthless planet that is Noman's Land. He ensured the ships with the plants would survive. Rem would die in this accident, and Nai told Vash it was his fault for giving him the code, and that they were co-conspirators.

Vash was devastated.

He was picked up by the crew of SEEDS 3 after Nai left of his own accord and was treated as an aberration, and something dangerous. Vash would be locked into a small cell while the people around him debated whether or not they should just kill him. Vash was mostly oblivious to that because he was depressed now that he'd lost both Nai and Rem, and accepted that the crash was entirely his fault, even if it wasn't.

Things changed when he heard one of the plants on the ship crying out to him. The humans on board weren't sure what to make of the plant in distress and at the same time, Vash was at the door of the cell, banging at the door, begging to be let out to help. Although skeptical, he was brought to see the other plants and Vash walked up to the distressed plant, placed his hands and forehead on the glass and calmed her down, stabilizing his sister.

From that point on, that became Vash's job on SEEDS 3, and as they moved plants around to establish cities and towns for the humans, Vash would be sent to deal with plants in distress. The crew significantly warmed up to Vash and realized he wasn't a monster and with a purpose, Vash found his will to survive.

When they finally recovered the black box from SEEDS 5 and heard the recording of Nai blaming Vash for the accident, there was another discussion about how uncomfortable Vash made them and whether or not they should act on this or let it go, because by then they knew him and it seemed quite unlikely he intentionally did any harm. Vash overheard part of the conversation and decided to run away, but found himself being called to by a plant and so, he detoured to where they were being held. This would be the first encounter with his brother and his brother's plan to collect all the plants.

Infuriated by the death of the plant that was calling to them, Knives would kill the humans in the facility, causing Vash great distress as he begged him to stop and asked him why he would do such a thing. Nai attempted to get Vash on his side, pressing a .22 into his hands, beginning with killing Luida, his ally on SEEDS 3, but Vash refused. The fight that Vash and Nai got into caused something to happen, in that his angel power went out of control, opening a gate in his arm and Nai reacted by severing the limb to save his brother's life. Vash would reject Nai's offer to make a world of only plants and when he attempted to go for Luida again - Vash pulled the gun on him. Rejected, Nai left promising Vash would see his plan come to fruition in a century or so.

Vash would eventually leave SEEDS 3 in an effort to explore the world, but would be continuously chased and sought after by Millions Knives, leaving destruction in his wake unintentionally. This earned him the nickname of Humanoid Typhoon, and his bounty. He would encounter Knives at Jeneora Rock, and with the destruction of that town, he resolves to stop running and make his brother understand. To that end, he has headed to JuLai.
Iteration
A wandering vagrant with a heart of gold who wants nothing more than to ensure the safety and security of all the life around him. He demonstrates compassion for humans, plants and worms and does his best to avoid any and all conflict.

This becomes difficult as Vash has had several atrocities attributed to him mistakenly, from actions taken by his brother, Millions Knives. He presently has a bounty on his head of $$6 million. It often gets him into trouble when people decide they want that money and think they can bring them in.

Vash just wants everyone to get along, he doesn't mean any harm at all. He will always take the non-violent route if he can find it. If he can't, he'll minimize the damage as best he can. He refuses to kill anyone.

He believes all life can live in harmony if they just try.

Canon Abilities
Plant Aging
When he was born through his first year, he had roughly the development of a ten year old child. From then on, he's aged normally until he was roughly 21 or so, and beyond that his appearance has remained static as though frozen in time.
Superhuman
Vash has superhuman reflexes, speed, strength and regeneration capabilities. He's not human and so he doesn't react like one. It's safe to say nearly everything about him exceeds human capabilities. His regeneration cannot regrow limbs. He can completely heal any manner of serious injuries otherwise. When he feels he deserves an injury, he simply chooses not to heal it.
Generator/Gate Access
Vash is not a very good generator of power, he's not good at producing things. He does however carry a gate inside of him that gives access to the power that all plants draw upon. He presently does not know how to use this at will.
Angel Power
Vash can generate and draw upon enough power to enhance his already superhuman abilities. Several things can manifest under this power -
Angel Wings: These wings are not meant for flight, but for protection. They can also morph and shift to turn the feathers to blades. Vash does not need to be conscious for the wings to activate and protect him. He presently does not know how to use this.
Levitation/Flight: Not caused by the wings, but through the manipulation of gravity.
Enhanced Senses
Teleportation: Can be used over great distances, if he's in a rush. Takes a huge toll on his energy levels. Vash avoids using this, he prefers to travel like a human.
Barrier: Vash can erect a barrier to protect an area from anything as big as a missle hit or less. He presently does not know how to use this.
Bullet Creation: He can create black bullets. He presently does not know how to use this.
Weaponized Core
He can draw from the core and use it as a weapon of mass destruction.
Plant Whisperer
Vash can talk to other plants and connect with them. He's a member of the hivemind. When doing this the marks that denote him as a plant appear on his exposed skin.
Extra Abilities
Legend
Powers given to him thank to his role in Folkmore.
Shadow Teleportation
He can teleport from shadow to shadow. He's unlikely to use this since he can teleport anyway, and he doesn't prefer it.
Water Manipulation
He can manipulate water in a minor way. It was a reward from Trial 19. Might help him water his plants.
Role
Physical Attributes Wings and a halo, these ones are meant for flight. White, unlike his black ones he usually has in combat.

Non-physical Qualities He has an innate sense of finding people who are in trouble, and he's a little sturdier. Not that he needs it.

Reasoning Vash's entire ethos of wanting to protect all life and shower all life with love and kindess as a martyr figure is very much in line with the many Legends. He has endless mercy and compassion and will sacrifice his discomfort to appease someone's vengeance. His body tells the tale, countless scars and wounds from people hurting him over and over again to satisfy their needs and desires at his expense, and still he has nothing but an endless well of love for those around him. It would be incredibly difficult to find anything at all that Vash has done to hurt someone else intentionally. He deeply cares about those around him, even if it's not reciprocated.
