History
Dante is the second son of Meister, Jameson Roth, and Weapon, Mercedes Pierce, and he lived in Turin, Italy. Growing up under a Meister/Weapon family, Dante was raised to go to DWMA, as was his brother Vincent (Who became a Death Scythe a year ago at age 19. He was stationed at the Czech Republic to keep an eye on the golems there.). Growing up Dante was home schooled by his parents so he can be taught basic academics and Meister abilities. He was home schooled from kindergarten all the way through Middle School and most of High School, so he's been lonely most of his life. Family was an important thing for Dante growing up because they were all he had. As for his combat abilities, he was trained in martial arts by his parents, and often sparred with his older and younger brother. However, when his older brother left for the DWMA, he had to spar with his parents in order to improve his self, who didn't go so easy on him. His younger brother will be attending the DWMA in one year.
Dante comes from a long line of great Meisters known as the Roths. Over the many years, they've developed many techniques that are used by top-ranked Meisters today. However, they also have many family secrets, making them one of the toughest Meisters in academy history. Still, no matter how good you are, there is always someone who is better. The Roths train their kids until they attend the DWMA on their own, so from birth, their career path has already been chosen for them.
Abilities
Solo
[Soul Slice]
A family ability of the Roth's that Dante has been trying to master for years. Collides Dante's soul with the opponent's soul in a manner that is supposed to cut the opponent's soul. Dante has never gotten close to mastering it, even though he has been training with it for almost 4 years. His great-grandfather invented it, and passed it down along his family, and his father was the most recent one to master it. He showed Dante when he was 13, and since then he's been at it, practicing every day. This is more or less, a huge upgrade to a Soul Menace.
[Soul Dance Technique]
A fighting style that Dante's grandfather developed which calls for a method of retaliating attacks, which makes it a defensive stance. On every retaliation, a small surge of a Soul Menace (Like a mini Soul Menace), will shoot through the body causing more harm than meets the eye. For example, if you were to throw a punch at Dante's face, he would duck, grab the arm, send the Soul Menace through his fingertips and into the arm, and toss the opponent. In short, use the enemies attacks against them.
With Partner
[Blood Shuriken]
WIP
[Blood Resonance]
A very risky Soul Resonance that takes a large toll on both Dante and Jun. Jun takes the blood from both the battlefield and Dante's wounds, extracts the iron from it, and reinforces her sword form to create an even more powerful blade. She can shape the blade any way she likes, but sometimes there isn't enough blood, so she may have to draw blood directly from Dante's wounds. This also puts a blood red streak in Dante's hair, like Jun's.
[Blood Dance]
A highly experimental fighting technique that Jun and Dante are working on. They haven't even come close to mastering it, but the future looks bright.
Other
- Dante is Ambidextrous
- Dante doesn't hate Jun, and sometimes wonders why she acts so ill towards him.
- Dante tends to "pray" for those who have fallen after he defeats a Kishin Egg.
