Dante is the protagonist of Capcom's Devil May Cry action series, a half-human, half-demon hunter for hire and the second son of the demon Sparda and the human Eva. He is the twin brother of Vergil and uncle of Nero, and he runs the Devil May Cry agency where devil hunting is the job. Created by Hideki Kamiya, he appears across the games and in the 2007 anime.

He is known for a cocky, stylish, wisecracking fighting style and a habit of mouthing off even to the most powerful demons. He started hunting demons out of revenge after his mother Eva was killed when he was eight, and he keeps her portrait in his office. He carries his father's sword, Rebellion, and the pistols Ebony and Ivory.
