Weapon Background

A series of weapons developed by KRISS USA (Formally TDI), The SMG Vector (Gen I) was previously known as Super V in 2007, now with latest Gen II Vector released in 2015, "Super V" now merely refers to the articulated mechanism that reduces recoil on the gun.

A delayed blowback, closed bolt operated sub machinegun with a strange visual appearance, featuring selective fire mechanism with 2-round burst, semi and full auto. Prototype was designed to chamber the .45 ACP cartridge but Gen II Vector have variants that fires the 9x19mm Parabellum, can be fired at a rate of 1200 rounds per minute while feeding on a Glock 21's magazine, or a larger proprietary MagEx 25+ extended 25-round magazine. Also featuring foldable stock and accessory rail on top of the gun for mounting optics.

Vector is noted for it's recoil reducing designs, Super V Recoil Mitigation System, that is an articulated mechanism which allows the bolt and an inertia block to move downward into a recess behind the magazine well. Together with the rate of fire brought down to 1200 from 1500 RPM, this SMG can be easily controlled even during fully automatic firing of large calibre pistol cartridges.

Gen I Vector variant are no longer in production, all further production of Vector units from KRISS USA are now Gen II. Gen II Vector SMG is available only to the military and law enforcement agency while other semi automatic variants are available for civilian market.

Character Info

Design

SA shared comments on the design inspirations of Vector on the Official Girls Frontline Art Book.

"Upon seeing the weapon Vector for the first time, I felt like that she should be a girl with silver hair. Personality should be the serious type, and she should also appear to be a bit cold. (第一次看到vector的外形时，就觉得应该是个银灰色头发的、认真又有点冷的少女)".

"Since it is a modern weapon, so her costume doesn't look as suitable for combat as the other T-doll's costumes(因为本身是现代枪，所以服装上看起来不是像其他人那样有战斗感的战术服装)."

"The colour theme of her outfit were taken from the gun, short skirt to match the short hair. Main colouring theme is black and creamy yellow, together with a clean white shirt, hoping that it gives people a sense of fresh and cool just from looking at her.(从枪身上提取图形和颜色为元素，选择了不累赘的连衣短裙和短发，主色是黑色和黄色搭配干净的白衬衣，希望能给人清爽帅气的印象)"

Vector is also one of the taller SMG T-dolls, body height well exceeds 160cm, though her height seem to be bashed down a lot with her Kitty Paw costume...

Personality

Official character description would have her down as a T-doll with very few words and reliable performance, despite her weird personality she is actually fairly popular amongst T-dolls. Vector possesses an incredibly pessimist characteristic, she radiate intense level of negative energy with the way she acts with the things she says, she would expect the worst outcome out of any situation.

The way Vector act out is likely a referred to the difficult and intertwined history of the actual weapon. Being developed by an American company, designer is Swedish while the mechanism copyright is French. After first public reveal, the weapon received doubts from the audience due to the strange visual appearance. Over a period of several years redevelopment, even a name change for both the weapon and the company, the weapon's performance is finally being admired by public. Despite that it still did not enter Military service and the civilian market complains about it's pricing (Popular with the film industry though due to it's Sci-Fi look).

In-Game

Together with the high default rate of fire/damage and the given ability, Vector is in fact, the strongest thrown-grenade type unit in the game. Her default shooting damage when buffed is notable, while her Molotov skill is very effective against large enemy crowds and/or high evasion enemies during day and night missions. On top of that Vector is able to provide a massive rate of fire bonus to the AR unit standing behind her. Note that Vector's default evasion is lower than most SMG, so her tanking performance is not as ideal as the others.

As a 5* SMG Vector is actually fairly common, most people will have received their Vector within a month of playing, which could mean for most players, her expansion is less expensive than the other 5* T-dolls.

Story Involvement

Vector's only story involvement was as part of Hitori Bocchi, she was one of the two main characters who represented Girls Frontline during the collaboration event with Honkai Gakuen on November 16th 2017.

Hitori Bocchi

Vector was the first T-doll to make contact with a Honkai character after she encountered ^HG KianaKianaKiana. (Note that Hitori Bocchi is told from a perspective of Kiana being the Commander, the actual player character "could not interact with this event due to unnameable reasons", according to ^HG Five-seveNFive-seveNFive-seveN)

Hitori Bocchi centred around Vector, ^SMG PP-90PP-90PP-90 and Kiana, the story began with Schicksal Valkyrja entering the world of Girls Frontline with their flagship Hyperion. The garrison Vector and PP stayed at suddenly came under attack by waves of "Zombies", Vector stayed back to guard a warehouse alone, promises were made for her own extraction from PP, but Vector never expected it to arrive. Endless waves of zombies have exhausted Vector's munitions, just when she is ready to accept her fate, enters Kiana. Mistaking Vector as a human at first, Kiana and Vector exchanged information on their current situation, decided to work together and exit the powerless facility. "By the way Ms Kiana, I'm not a human. While I'm probably not very good representation of my company's image but, Vector of Private Military Contractor Gryfon & Kryuger, here by thank you for enlisting our service."

With Kiana bought back to Vector's the main unit in that sector, PP explained that they are still under siege from waves of zombies, communication to G&K HQ and their Commander (the Player) is cut off, Kiana as the only human there that can take over command of all the T-doll units. After a quick tutorial Kiana got the hang of the basics of commanding T-doll units, PP assumed the role of her adjutant. Under Kiana's command, they swiftly dealt with the zombie problem and reunited with ^HG TheresaTheresaTheresa and ^AR Murata HimekoMurata HimekoMurata Himeko, later on the reunited group obtained contact with FN Squadron, exchanged Intel and discussed further plans against the invasion.

Honkai energy is essentially the negative chaotic energy, it expresses itself through many aspects, primarily it incites war, spreads diseases, wreaks havoc, many worlds have already fallen to Honkai. Members of Schicksal Valkyrja have fought this across many worlds and dimensions, but their journey to the world of Girls Frontline was an unexpected one. Honkai energy that should have never existed in this world, it some how incarnated and spawned countless numbers of mechanized zombie girls. The next move for the group would be to locate their other missing crew members ^RF Raiden MeiRaiden MeiRaiden Mei and ^RF BronyaBronyaBronya, for Vector however was to locate the Hyperion and escort a fellow Valkyrie named ^SG SeeleSeeleSeele to their new operation HQ, PP begged to come along but Vector rejected the offer and said that she works better on her own, so PP joined the main group instead.

Being efficient with her work, Vector quickly located the Hyperion with the coordinates provided, she also managed to get in contact with Seele, who agreed to the escort mission after hearing it was at her companions' request. After the Honkai source from the Sangvis Ferri leader was dealt with and a brief repair, PP set off to rendezvous with Vector who is currently in a tunnel. The group continued with their travel back to the operation HQ, everything proceeded smoothly until suddenly the two was cut down by a series of precise and deadly melee blows, Seele was never in her normal persona, she was the one who unleashed a sample of Honkai from the Hyperion while the Valkyries were entering this world. The pair was left critically wounded while alter Seele proceeded with her intended task.

Slowly remembering the story, still WIP
