Taking up residence in Llanview in 1968, Victoria Davidson was sexually abused as a child, Viki developed Dissociative Identity Disorder (D.I.D) and created many identities who would later wreak havoc on her life for years to come.
After the death of her first husband, Joe Reilly, Viki went on to marry Clint Buchanan who also adopted her children. While the two still have an emotional connection to this day, it wasn't easy for Clint to endure Viki's alter egos. Suffering from D.I.D, Viki took Clint on the roller coaster ride of his life for years!
During their first marriage, Viki's wild, free-spirited alter ego Niki emerged to set off and live it up! However, knowing Clint would never allow it, Niki pretended to be Viki and convinced Clint that she (Viki) wanted a divorce! Soon after, Clint found out that Viki had been ill again and came up with a plan to make her come back to him. He took Viki's sister Tina, who had a thing for Clint, to a lodge and arranged for 'Niki' to show up. When Niki entered the room and saw Clint and Tina about to have sex, it was enough to lure Viki out again!
Although Viki and Clint remarried, they ended up divorced once again after she fell in love with Sloan Carpenter. Their love affair was short lived after Sloan died of cancer leaving Viki emotionally devastated�
Over the years, Viki's rival with enemy Dorian Lord took her on many twists and turns, both physically and emotionally! While under the control of her alter Jean Randall, Viki trapped Dorian in the basement at Llanfair and held her hostage for months! Although she had believed that Dorian had murdered her father, Viki later found out that for years she had buried her father's dirty sins, using many different personalities to help her cope, and realized that she was the one who killed him! Viki immediately went through therapy and successfully got her life back!
Years later, Viki found out that Todd Manning was her brother and continues to be an influential part in his life to this day. Viki's next biggest love would come at a time when she felt at a 'Crossroads' in her life. Finding herself stranded on a dark road, Viki entered the Crossroads Bar and met bartender Ben Davidson who nicknamed her Blondie. Eventually, the two fell madly in love and lived the most romantic, magical love story of a lifetime!
With the support of Ben, Viki found out she had another daughter� Natalie, the twin of Jessica who had been stolen at birth! It took Viki months to gain Natalie's trust and make her feel a part of the family, but in the end Viki's love for her family prevailed. Although Ben's secret past and Viki's dysfunctional family secrets and diagnosis of breast cancer at times threatened their great love, it would be an ambush caused by a crazed woman that would take Ben from Viki and put him in a coma for years�
Just when things were looking up, Viki found out that she was suffering from heart disease and needed a transplant. After finding out that Ben's heart was a perfect match, Viki was faced with her family's pleas to accept that Ben was gone and take the gift of his heart and live on through him. With the grace of God, and the healing strength of Ben's love, Viki's heart transplant was a success.
Her new heart would prove to hold strong in 2006 when Viki would find that her daughter Jessica also suffered from D.I.D as a direct result of Viki's own illness. While under the control of her 'alter' Niki Smith, Viki frequently took Jessica to a bar, as a child, where she had fallen into the dirty hands of a child molester. Through Jessica's integration and forgiveness, Viki was able to forgive herself.
Now finding herself at another crossroads, Viki is feeling her life slipping by and eagerly seeks a new path and adventure to take on her own. The epitome of class, Victoria Lord Davidson is one of the strongest foundations upon which Llanview is built who is always there with her love and support during her family's most traumatic times of need!

Back home in Llanview, Clint, Viki and Charlie bring Natalie into Llanfair, who cries, "How am I going to live without Jared?" After Viki promises they'll all be there for Natalie, Natalie hugs Charlie then heads upstairs with Clint.
Charlie walks into the living room, eyeing the liquor bottles, as Viki wishes she could take away his pain. Seated on the couch, Viki and Charlie look through a photo album that Jared put together for him, and Charlie can only remember that he was drunk in every picture - accept for the ones from the past year. Charlie can't take it anymore, goes and picks up a bottle of booze and tells Viki, "There's only one thing I'm thinking about." Charlie throws the bottle across the room and screams that Jared died trying to protect an old drunk! He tries thinking back to the night of the murder, and Charlie remembers how he hated the man - because he was there for Jared when he couldn't be. Viki reminds him of what Jared said - that he and Jared's stepfather had a fight, and the man hit his head - then blames Jared's death on Mitch. "You're not a murderer," Viki says, but Charlie admits if John hadn't pulled him off, he would've killed Mitch - while stone cold sober! Charlie asks for some time alone, and Viki gives it to him, as Charlie picks up a piece of the broken bottle.
Viki goes back downstairs and tries to get Charlie to get some sleep. After Clint promises to stay there, and let him know when the police call, to release Jared's body, Charlie heads upstairs with Viki.
As Charlie strangles Mitch at the vineyard in Napa, Viki screams for him to stop, and John and Brody finally pull him off - as Mitch smirks and says, "Would it help if I said I'm sorry?" Mitch refuses to take any blame then implies that Jared grew up to be just like his father. Charlie warns that if he's ever alone with Mitch, he'll kill him - and Mitch wants John to arrest Charlie for threatening his life! John refuses, and as Charlie leaves, Mitch demands Viki's attention and calls Charlie a drunk and a murderer. As Mitch says, compared to Charlie Banks, he is righteousness itself, Viki slaps him hard across the face and snaps, "Don't you ever say my husband's name again!"
Outside, Charlie admits to Viki that he would have killed Mitch then brings up how he killed a man - and they now have to face this! Suddenly, Napa PD appears and shocks everyone by saying Mitch will be prosecuted in Napa - not Llanview! John is forced to turn Mitch over, who gives John one last smirk before he's taken away.
