The name Vaas means someone who has potential and is somewhat a savior. He can relate to the people who is going through a rough time and understands the pain and suffering that
that one person is sacfricing in order to save his or her loved ones. A Vaas can go crazy if he is mistreated by the people he knows well like his family or loved ones, and use him to finish their
dirty work.
The word/name Vaas means vase in Dutch. A vase is a
vessel or glass, porcelain, and a vase holds cut flowers. And once a person cuts flowers from the vase, they grow back. What this means is that Vaas's
personality was cut by someone else and has grown a new one. Also a vase breaks easily when it falls, what I'm trying to say here is "you must break the vase in order to free the flowers" in other words "Vaas has to die (in a good manner)in order for is soul to be free.
The name Vaas derives from Servaas, the Dutch form of the Latin name Servatius, which again derives from Servatus, which means "saved, redeemed".
