Dante DMC reboot

The new Dante's personality is sort of similar to the original Dante's, but because of the change in setting and his past, there are quite a few pronounced differences in some of the ways Dante interacts with others, especially demons. The young man carries himself in a different slick, confident manner as his counterpart, with a more vulgar and spiteful tone.

Dante is very rebellious towards authority figures but laid-back to anyone else. Living on the periphery of society and caught between two worlds, he feels like an outcast. Young and angry, but with a quick wit and black humor, he is disaffected and disassociated with society, and seemingly quite apathetic. He has no fear, and no respect for authority, especially not the demonic authority that runs the world in which he lives.[1] He has no qualms with engaging in debauchery and other hedonistic acts, mostly because he believes he won't be around for too much longer,[2] because of all the demons constantly breathing down his neck.However, Dante has a huge heart beneath all of this rough exterior. He purposely chose to live out his life his own way because his eyes were opened to evil as a child, especially when the people who were supposed to take care of him turned out to be demons. He decided to take a stand and fight back, no matter what happens. But even after all of the hatred, violence, and murder, Dante would often look at himself and see if he could call himself human, going so far as to rip his chest open to see his own heart. He just knew that he had to convince himself he wasn't insane. Dante displays a more caring side to his female associate, Kat, telling her to leave him and find safety when they come under attack, and even risking The Order's plans to save her life.Dante is the elder child of an angel named Eva and the demon Sparda and seemingly hunts down other demons in the twisted shadows of Limbo City, while slowly coming to grips with his ethereal powers. Dante grew up in various institutions, orphanages, youth correction facilities, and foster homes, but these were mostly operated by demons, and often resulted in torture and violence. Dante has therefore developed a deep hatred of demons and authority in general but tries to stay incognito.

In spite of this, he attracts attention thanks to his violent tendencies and the actions of the demons against him. Dante is not subtle in his war against them, even going so far as punching out a bouncer in front of a group of people in order to enter a nightclub run by demons. The demons are even less subtle when fighting Dante, perfectly willing to tear apart Limbo City to subdue him. These mutual acts of sabotage have allowed the demons to use the media to portray Dante as public enemy number one. One night, after having a wild time at Devil's Dalliance, Dante was careless and allowed a Hunter to track him. At his trailer, he is waking up, recovering from a hangover. His door is knocked by Kat, who warns him that he's being followed. Suddenly, the Hunter appears and pulls Dante into Limbo. As it destroys his trailer, Dante quickly puts on his clothes and finds himself surrounded by demons. Defeating them, he encounters Kat again, who explains that she's a psychic and can see him, even though she's in the real world, and she wants to help him. Dante initially turns down her offer, but Kat warns him that he shouldn't fight the Hunter. Following Kat to the rift, Dante fends off against Hunter's attacks, including the rip-off of the Ferris wheel. He tries to use Ebony & Ivory, but Kat informs him that it's bulletproof. After she throws a Wiccan-charmed bottle at its face and weakens it, Dante fights and defeats the Hunter. With its dying breaths, it calls him the Son of Sparda and tells him that he is dead just like his mother, the “whore”. Dante replies that he doesn't know who his mother was, but the Hunter wasn't the first to call him a son of a bitch. He then kills the demon and returns to the real world, with the pier heavily destroyed due to the battle in Limbo. Holding his pendant, Dante thinks of Eva, whom he barely remembers. As he leaves the pier, Kat finds him again, informing him that her boss knows him and wants to meet him. Although resisting at first, he eventually accepts and Kat drives him into Limbo City. She reveals to Dante that she's part of the Order, and the man in the mask that frequently appears on the news is her boss Arriving at the entrance of the Order, Dante comments that it wasn't what he expected because it looks like a small garage, and Kat replies that was the idea, since the real entrance is well hidden. As they enter, she goes on and tells him that the demons are enslaving mankind, and the Order is fighting against them as the last line of defense. Then they enter a room, where a man dressed in black was waiting for them. Seeing that Dante doesn't recognize him, the man reveals himself to be Vergil, his long lost twin brother and the establisher of the Order. Vergil asks Dante to join with him in fighting the demons and saving mankind. But Dante declines, stating that he's the loner type. Stating that leaving will be a mistake, Vergil asks Dante to give him a chance to show the truth about who he is.

Dante is then brought to Paradise, Dante and Vergil's home which has been long abandoned. There, Kat opens a gateway, allowing Dante to enter Limbo and find out about his past. While exploring the mansion, he comes across a torn portrait of his father Sparda with a winged carving at the base engulfed with a demonic aura. Upon touching it, Dante gains the Arbiter. As he regains his childhood memories, he stumbles across an insignia which resembles the tattoo on his back. He is suddenly transported into another dimension, where he finds a large stone statue that is chained down. Dante gains the demonic form of the Ophion and breaks one of the chains. When he returns to Limbo, he finds another portrait, this time of his mother Eva, with a winged carving, shining with an angelic blue. As he touches the carving, Dante obtains Osiris. Continuing his search, Dante finds a blue rose, which takes him back to the dimension from before. He gains the angelic form of the Ophion and breaks another chain. Later, Dante finds a picture of Sparda, Eva, Vergil and himself. He suddenly remembers everything. Eva gave him his pendant when he was a child, and he would have sparred with Vergil, often winning them easily. They were a family, until Mundus and his demon army found them. He broke into the mansion and killed Eva, ripping her heart out right in front of Dante's eyes. Sparda quickly took his sons and escaped, erasing their memories and separating them. He hid them among the humans to keep them safe from Mundus. Returning to the real world, Dante confirms with Vergil that they are indeed twin brothers, the latter showing his blue pendant that Eva gave to him. Vergil informs Dante that their father Sparda has been eternally banished, condemned to a fate far worse than death. Dante tells Vergil that he wants to know more, and they, along with Kat, leave the mansion
