Victor Collins is a fictional character on the American soap opera General Hospital and its spin-off Port Charles. Nicholas Pryor portrayed the role on General Hospital in the spring of 1997 and on Port Charles from June 11, 1997 to October 3, 2003.
Lucy Coe finds Victor in a convent where he is recovering from mental illness. Kevin Collins had told her that his father was dead. When he recovers from his illness, he returns to Port Charles with Kevin and Lucy. While in Port Charles, he is able to mend his relationship with his son, Kevin, and becomes a suspect in the General Homicide murder mystery. Victor is frequently away from home when his twin sons are little. His wife sexually abuses his son, Ryan Chamberlain. One night his wife abuses Kevin thinking that it was Ryan. When Kevin tells his father, he takes Kevin and leaves Ryan behind. Both sons experience mental illness throughout their lives, but Ryan becomes homicidal.
Victor is held hostage by the General Homicide killer, Greg Cooper, and his sister Julie. Greg claims that he is Victor's son by a woman name, Marsha Cooper, who was killed by Ryan when he was little. Eventually, it is discovered that Julie is not Greg's sister. The true paternity of Greg is never revealed.
Victor meets Mary Scanlon and marries her in 1999. Victor is presumed dead, but is actually kidnapped in Italy. Kevin and Mary rescue him. He reappears in 2002 after he and Frank Scanlon find high levels of radiation and a pocket watch in the forest.
