Vaughan
is ex-army and perceives the squad's struggles as a war, even if he does have
very personal reasons for wanting to win this fight. Untroubled by questions of
morality, Vaughan's approach to the enemy is ruthless.
Other squad members suspect Vaughan revels in his 'license to kill' especially against an enemy with no human rights. But deep below there is a hidden tenderness, which his protectiveness towards Angie increasingly unveils.
Vaughan was discharged after the Gulf War with post-traumatic stress, when his troop was wiped out after a friendly fire incident. The truth is that Vaughan killed some of his troop when he found they had been turned. Unable to defeat a group of vampires he fled.

Quote: “The way you’re going
you’re looking at early retirement. The fact that he turned out to be human,
is not the scary part. You pumped two bullets into his chest and still managed
to miss his heart. If he was a leech you’d be dead.”
Quote: “If I was, you’d be dead
by now.”
Roleplaying Vaughan Rice
Vaughan
is bitter and emotionless, it's a challenge to play a character who shows no
feelings and who juggles with people and with authority - he gets some great
lines though and has a very, very dry sense of humor. He also has deep respect
for his colleagues and an absolute determination to defeat the vampires who are
the ultimate adversary.
