Evolution of Despicable Me Villains.
Vector, who is always dressed in an orange and white tracksuit, is the main antagonist of the first movie, Despicable Me, voiced by Jason Segel.
He is born Victor Perkins, who is the only son of Mr. Perkins, the president of the Bank of Evil, who can be strict, if not overly so, when he thinks that giving in to all his child's desires more than makes up for his lack of support and true parental responsibilities.
Vector is extremely clever but also overconfident and arrogant.
Vector is already a well-known supervillain with unknown misdeeds by the time this film is released.
One of his deeds was the theft of the Great Pyramid of Giza, which affected Gru's pride, and Vector contended with him for control of a shrink ray and eventually the moon.
Vector has an excessive liking for cookies.
As a result, when the adopted Gru daughters, Agnes, Edith, and Margo arrive to sell them, he warmly welcomes them into his fortress.
Vector also appears to have an affinity for aquatic life, as he keeps an adult Great White Shark in a big tank in his fortress and employs innovative aquatic-themed weapons like the Squid Launcher and the Piranha Gun.
Unlike Gru, Vector has no qualms about kidnapping children and taking them as hostages.
