Dante possesses the ability to manipulate a large arsenal that ranges from demonic swords to the use of firearms, such as his twin pistols Ebony and Ivory. Dante is shown as a guy with quite a rocker and carefree attitude throughout the plot.

Dante could be considered an anti-hero, but there are situations in which the demonic side of him prevails and Dante becomes truly a being that inspires terror, while still being "the good guy" of the story. Dante usually wears a red leather or vinyl trench coat, his hair is silver, and he is quite tall.

Dante has a twin brother named Vergil, who despite being his twin, are complete opposites. Dante and Vergil will have more than one confrontation throughout their history, in which finally only one would remain standing. In the end Dante would show affection to his brother crying with slight tears the loss of him. Dante possesses two swords that are left by his father to him, Rebellion, a mysterious sword and to his brother Vergil, another mysterious magical sword called Yamato, Rebellion that would show its true form once Dante's demonic blood and Force Edge fully awakens, the sword of the legendary Sparda.

Force Edge has the ability to change its form to a demonic one by combining it with the amulets that Eva left to her children, this sword also changes its name to that of its former owner (Sparda). Dante also makes use of various firearms, but his quintessential weapons are Ebony and Ivory, two semi-automatic pistols that have the ability to fire unlimited ammunition. Later after the experience on Mallet Island, Dante would change the name of his agency to his new name: "Devil Never Cry", like the one that can be seen in the anime series of this saga. Dante is the son of Sparda, a demon; and Eva a human. The result of this union was Dante and Vergil of the half-demon half-human race, the perfect hybrid. When they were little, some demons attacked them in their childhood, and Eva died after this attack after protecting her beloved children. From this point, Vergil realized that power is necessary to protect loved ones, while Dante felt affected by what happened and at this point, the two took different paths.

In the anime, he tells that Dante was taking refuge in a village that knew his mother, and to hide he used the name of Tony Redgrave.

From this point, the chronology of the original Devil May Cry saga already happens. Dante possesses superhuman strength to the point where he can break through stone walls and destroy columns in one blow, as well as overpower demons much larger than himself that oppose him. His speed is so great that he can move faster than the human eye, which is why he was shown to evade a shot at such close range from Nero. His agility is at a superhuman level, allowing him to perform feats such as jumping great heights and maintaining his balance. on a moving rocket or the huge jumps that he demonstrated when he faced the 'savior' during the video game Devil May Cry 4. He can channel his demonic powers into objects, either in bladed weapons or melee weapons, which are usually his Rebellion and Ebony & Ivory in order to use charged shots or as seen in chapter 2 of the anime adaptation, boost the speed of a motorcycle to overtake a demon on the highway.

He possesses self regeneration, as he was shown to heal his wounds effortlessly and without the need to activate the Devil Trigger; this can be seen when he is attacked by Cerberus in the opening scene of mission 1 for Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening.

It is stated that Dante surpassed his father Sparda as of the end of Devil May Cry and also the information given about him in Devil May Cry 4 in the menu library. Devil Trigger is the nature of Dante allows him to fully unleash his demonic powers through his Devil Trigger, which increases his speed, strength and resistance, he also has more abilities, usually glide. As for gameplay, he allows you to recover lost vitality when activated. In Devil May Cry and Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening, this form's appearance varies depending on which Demon Weapon he has equipped, since his Devil Trigger would not have matured. In Devil May Cry 2 and Devil May Cry 4, he demonstrates his Devil Trigger in a more developed state. In Devil May Cry 2, he also demonstrated the "Majin" form; Little is known about this form of him due to the paucity of information about him. He has also used a number of demonic fighting styles.

power of dante

It is believed that Dante's power comes not only from his demon blood, but also from his willingness to protect other people. This may mean that demons can attain a human form by having the ability to protect and care for another, but this has only been able to be done by Dante, Vergil, and Nero, due to their part human as well as being part demon. Dante has shown to be capable of a wide variety of weapons, which he has collected throughout the games.
