Background
Vance is a student at Bullworth Academy, where he belongs to the Badass faction. He appears to be well-respected within his faction, and possibly high-ranking as well. He often serves as their spokesperson when Johnny Vincent is not present, and can be seen with Johnny's lieutenants, Norton and Peanut. In many missions, he is paired with Lefty.
Vance is bisexual and can be kissed by Jimmy. Fans sometimes believe he is completely gay, but he has numerous lines where he is interested in girls or cares about his image in front of them.

Chapter I
Vance in Pirate Costume
Vance in his pirate costume.
Vance's first appearance is during Halloween, where he dresses up as a pirate. However, he plays no role in the mini-missions other than being a potential victim.
Chapter III
In Chapter 3, he participates regularly.
In Bait, he accompanies Johnny Vincent to the bike park to defeat the Posh Guys.
In the mission This Ain't Your Neighborhood, Johnny sends him and Norton to the boys' dorm to take down Cornelius.
In the mission Brawl, he tells Jimmy he knows where Johnny is, but wasn't going to tell him, and in return, he is defeated by Jimmy along with Lefty and Peanut.
Errands
On an errand for Pedro, Vance appears in a pirate outfit on a small island in Old Bullworth Vale Bay, holding a ruler. Jimmy unlocks the Pirate Hat if he defeats him. After that, Vance never appears on the island again.
Personality
Vance is very concerned about his appearance, especially his hair, even saying during the fight, "Don't you dare touch my hair!" and considers himself very handsome. His hair is his favorite topic of conversation. His obsession with his hair is known by the other students.
The other Badasses sometimes tease him about it, and small talk claims the Posh Guys once tried to set his hair on fire. He seems to enjoy puns, and in casual conversations, he can be heard asking if "[the other person] has ever accidentally swallowed a switchblade."
Appearance
Vance is short and has a thin build. He wears the usual Badass attire: a black leather jacket over his normal school uniform, gray pants, and brown boots. He wears his red hair in a low pompadour and has light green eyes. When seen on the football field in gym clothes, Vance rolls up the right sleeve of his shirt.
Trivia
If the player starts a fight with Vance in his pirate costume, the music of the factionless students will play instead of the Badass' music. He is also ostracized by the Badasses during Halloween. The explanation for this phenomenon is that, in the game files, Vance is listed as STUDENT instead of GREASER. However, he has the fighting style of a thug.
His character is believed to be inspired by James Dean, as one of his catchphrases, "You're tearing me apart," is one of Dean's famous lines in Rebel Without a Cause (1955).
