The tale of Vash's childhood and his mother figure Rem is a great story, as is the story of how Knives ended up being the polar opposite of Vash. But Vash's true challenge is in saving the world from his "brother" Knives, and it's this conflict that brings out Vash's real heroism. He's the greatest gunman on the planet, and all the criminals he faces don't stand a chance against him. As a "Plant", he's a being with power that few can comprehend. But in reality he's humanity's secret guardian angel on the distant, wild planet of Gunsmoke. Vash is called "the humanoid typhoon" because utter destruction tends to follow him wherever he goes, and there's a huge bounty on his head. His vow to never take a life provides plenty of drama in the series as his enemies use his virtue against him. He's a character who suffered countless scars and wounds to his own body to protect others, even the very villains he was trying to stop. He's gifted with superhuman fighting abilities, but also a superhuman capacity for compassion and kindness. Ever the reluctant fighter, Vash was a living contradiction.
