Abilities/Powers: Dante despite living among humans, has a copious amount of strength added to him. He can throw cars like it's nothing, wield weapons that could take three people to carry with one hand, he can be launched and land with perfect accuracy from dangerous heights. Dante is, in a sense, a superman. Except that isn't the name he'd exactly want to tote-- a daredevil with a penchant for being cocky with reactions as quick as a gunslinger, he's a force to be reckoned with. Gliding through the air by channeling demonic energy, dodging attacks at the speed of sound, but the one thing he isn't impervious to is a hell of a bad hangover.
He's versatile to where he can survive being sawed with a chainsaw and still retaliate right back. His wounds heal considerably quicker, to where he can rip open his chest to take a glance at his beating heart and survive. He can take punches that would send you flying and he'd still get right back up-- things that would normally kill a human are just a scratch to him. And despite his horrible lifestyle and consumption of bad food non-stop, he's in incredible shape, able to continuously run and jump at heights a human couldn't even dream of. Coupled with his hatred for demons and habit of causing some trouble, he definitely takes advantage of this with that same shit eating smirk he has on.
All because he's a nephilim. But, let's cover what a nephilim is in the first place. Generally, nephilim is the term that's used for demon and angel hybrids. And he's generally considered a nuisance to the demon race for this immaculate amount of abilities. One of those abilities being the DEVIL TRIGGER, where Dante is granted a dangerous amount of strength and endurance added onto his already supernatural ones. When it's activated, time is slowed and all enemies are launched into the air and float, helpless to whatever attacks he may want to unfold, before time resumes.
His main weapon is a sword named REBELLION, something his father Sparda gave to him to kill any demon that faces him. He typically summons it and can only use it while in Limbo, whenever it appears the tattoo on his back (which is similar to the model of the sword itself) flashes, and does the same when it shifts. By shifting, we mean it has the ability to transform into other weapons on top of it's original form, and those weapons are as follows:
ARBITER, a demonic battleaxe that Dante gains at an early point in his journey. It does a hell of a lot of damage, but because of its monstrous size, is considerably slower than any of Dante's other weapons.
OSIRIS, an angelic scythe, which is typically used to battle a multitude of enemies at once. It's quick, efficient, and can be used for just about anything. But while it's incredibly quick, the damage it has is a it less than his Rebellion. It's the one weapon that's generally perfect for attacks in the air, helping Dante keeping himself suspended as he lays attack upon attack against his enemy.
ERYX, demonic gauntlets which he can smash things or deliver quite a satisfying punch with nothing but Dante's brutal force. The power of these punches can be determined by whether or not he's in the air before launching this attack or straight up smashing enemies in their face.
AQUILA, which is an angelic set of shuriken-esque blades which can be used in the same why Osiris is-- for dealing with a copious amount of enemies at once. You can both pull and throw Aquila towards demons from a safe distance, keeping Dante protected as the demons get pummeled.
OPHION, a claw-like grappling hook that has two physical forms: angelic and demonic. Its angelic form is the one used to travel around the city, helping him reach places he couldn't before. While the demonic form can be used to pull his enemies closer, dismantle them from their shields, or pull out pieces of the city to help him navigate better.
Along with the Rebellion, Dante keeps his 'girls' EBONY and IVORY, his semi-automatic pistols he totes around like nobody's business. One is silver, and one is black, but both are capable of a multitude of attacks. They can reach just about any range, and coupled with Dante's incredible amount of expertise in any weapon he touches plus the ability to create just about any attack that comes to mind reality, a dangerous match. He can both infuse the bullets with demonic power and ''make it rain [bullets]'' so to speak.
And last but not least, KABLOOEY, something he acquires while he and Vergil infiltrate Mundus' headquarters off of one of the guards. It's able to fire explosive darts that can detonate wherever he chooses. While in Limbo, it takes this form, but in the human world, it looks like an innocent tazer.
