General Personality: At face value, Dante is an unflappable, charismatic man, a flirt and an optimist. He has a penchant for flippancy in the face of danger, which has earned him a lot of trouble, but this is forgivable by way of him being surprisingly empathetic. He rarely compares other people’s troubles to his own and can be a good listener when he feels what is being said is worth listening to.

His light banter works well to diffuse situations which veer uncomfortably close to causing a mood. Above everything else, Dante is very loyal to his friends. Dante can be very protective, and more than once has played the dashing hero to a complete stranger and then made himself scarce.

History

Dante is, by all intents and purposes, a mercenary for hire as well as a thief. He had at one point been a member to House Strake, one of the Lesser Houses sworn to House Winsler, but after a series of events which Dante would rather not mention, he had been cast out. If pressed about what really did happen to him to get him cast out, he would mention that it had to do with thievery and possibly an 'accidental' criminal act or two on his part.

Dante was fifteen when this had happened and had been forced to learn how to get by with his own wits. That was what shaped him into the man he is today. As of not long ago, he has sworn his allegiance to House Damian in return for a good sum of money and had taken up a job as a guard to the Damian children.
