The Vance Crime Family is a criminal organization featured in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories.
History
In the beginning of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and during Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, the Vance Gang is made up of two main members, Victor and Lance Vance, of which Victor is the leader. Victor and Lance grew up poor and try drug trafficking to make a profit to live on and provide medical costs for their ill brother, Pete Vance after Victor is thrown out of the The United States Army. The Vance Gang was known to have seized control of many businesses and assets and became a large scale operation. After the events of Vice City Stories, in which Victor and Lance agree to leave Vice City temporarily the gang is shrunk, it can be assumed that it had still been active but on a much more minuscule scale.
Description
The Vance Crime Family members appear inside and outside of Victor's empire buildings. The members who appear outside are armed and can be recruited by the player to serve as bodyguards. There are 2 groups of the Vance Crime Family, one runs the legal businesses (prostitution, protection racket, loan shark) and one that runs the illegal businesses (robbery, smuggling, drugs). The group that spawns at the legal businesses carry baseball bats and pistols, have short brown hair and wear either a tracksuit or a tanktop, a baseball hat, and track pants. The group that spawns at the illegal businesses carry MAC-10's and AK-47's, have shaved heads and are either black males wearing pastel suits or white males wearing a t-shirt and slacks. The goons that carry MAC-10's can perform drive by's on rival gang members, firing at a faster rate than the player.
