V

"He's very intelligent, and he believes in something. He believe so much that he'd do anything in its service, and that makes him more dangerous, because he's willing to sacrifice anything. . .Maybe that makes him insane. Although I imagine others in his organisation might consider him a hero." -Police Detective Helena Frye

General

• For the trail of discovery, see Cyrus Quinton.
• It is believed that "V" stands for the roman numeral 5, as in Quint. Quinton.
• Claire Castille informed us that she has heard him be called "Vadik" before.
• It is possible he was responsible for the Theft of The Receda Cube
  • This is the subject of some disute (Reason: [1])
• Seems to be the person in charge of the 4-man mission, with codenames:
  • "Vadik" - "Cyrus Quinton"
  • "Quercus" - Bernardo Holyoke
  • "Kilo" - Monica Grand
  • "C" - Claire Castille

• Was directly responsible for Monica Grand's death.
• Was probably also responsible for the deaths of Pietro Salk, Bernardo Holyoke, & Fran Mendling.
• Should at all times be considered very very dangerous.

"He's in his mid-30s, with dark hair. He looks like a thousand other guys you might meet. As for the name, 'V'. Once I heard someone else - someone who's dead now - call him 'Vadik'. Like the shadow-wizard in the story. It's appropriate for him. And as for what you should do if you ever meet him: run. Just run." --Claire Castille's description - (link)

• Has direct ties to The Third Power
• Communicates with the Third Power on Earth

• Monica Grand knew him before the Theft.
• Claire Castille met him 3 times ever.
  • Apparently he knew the entire theft crew, somehow, though they did not know each other.

• He had a day-job, at Hesh Records, which was a sort of cover.
• He also has a boss within the Third Power, "The Big-Boss".
  • It is quite likely this boss works at The Academy.

Codenames "V", "Q", "K" and "C", were hired to do the Theft. They are tied to the deaths of Fran Mendling, Bernardo Holyoke, Pietro Salk, Monica Grand, Isaac Cymbalisty, Anna Heath --- but someone else got to The Cube first. Who? And Why? "We never held it, It was already gone."

The Receda Trail The Receda Approach - The Receda Sign - The Receda Institute for Somnatherapy - The Receda School of Music - Receda's Revenge - Receda Resorts Monica Grand died giving us the trailhead of keywords. The Third Power lead us all over creation .. only to beat us over the head in the end. The jerks.

The Third Power They are an ancient society of very secret intentions. Pietro Salk tipped the ice-berg, and it cost him his life. The Police has brought them to their knees during Operation Bayonet, but they have been around a long time, and they aren't likely to be stopped so easily. They have Operatives on Earth, as well is in Perplex City. V appears to be a #2 man, but who does #2 work for?
