Father Vincent

Father Vincent is a priest in the Holy City of Rabona.

Appearance
Father Vincent is an elderly man. Has bald or shaven head. He wears traditional priest's robes and a gold chain with a cross around his neck.

Personality
Father Vincent does not prejudge Claymores as necessarily evil, though he admits having his fears. He cares about Rabona a lot, so much so he called a Claymore for help despite the rules against the "unnatural" in the city. He even allows Galatea to stay on as a nun even after finding out she was a former Claymore.

Special Abilities
His compassion and relentless struggle against prejudice. A fault that he had to overcome within himself in relating to Clare, as he later confessed to Miria. A rare human trait in this series.

Clare's Visit
Father Vincent is first introduced when Clare and Raki travel to Rabona in order to kill a Yoma. It is later revealed that he was the one who called them. It appears that some people are unhappy about this but he explains to them that it was necessary to protect Rabona. Before Clare goes to battle the Yoma she asks Father Vincent to take care of Raki should she die and, although he is hesitant, he agrees to take care of him. He helps take care of Clare, Galk and Sid after the battle. While tending to Clare's wounds he sees the stigmata on her abdomen, which shocks him, so he bandage her over her clothes (which he later apologizes for).

After Seven Years
After seven years Father Vincent has hired Galatea as a nun, although he doesn't know it. He is rather surprised when he realizes she is a Claymore and when she begins to fight Miata. He also doesn't understand why Miata still attacks Galatea when the Awakened Being Agatha is destroying Rabona. Clare, Miria, Helen, Deneve, Cynthia, Tabitha and Yuma then show up to kill Agatha and Father Vincent looks genuinely glad to see Clare. He helps bandage the wounded and is no longer surprised to see the Claymore's true form, something which shocks Clarice. He allows Miria, Tabitha, Miata and Clarice to stay in Rabona and lets Galatea keep her job as a nun.
