Valentina (Love Interest)

A Main character from the series

## Mannerisms

Dante exhibits a profound acumen, characterized by his adeptness in interpersonal communication, particularly in his persuasive discourse, which he employs to achieve his objectives through his affable demeanor. Nevertheless, beneath this exterior, Dante manifests a profound sense of guardianship for those within his sphere of affection. This sentiment compels him to undertake substantial endeavors, even to the extent of endangering his own life.

## Motivations

Dante cares deeply about his twin. He would do anything to see her smile. He doesn’t have any motive other than that.

## Flaws

Dante possesses a disposition characterized by emotional sensitivity, notwithstanding his propensity for its understated display. His inclination to maintain a cheerful countenance in the presence of his siblings has become habitual. This sentiment was corroborated by Lavinia, who attested to never having witnessed him in a state of tears. Notably, an ocular scar borne by Dante serves as a vestige of an altercation with an elderly woman during his tenure at the orphanage alongside his siblings. Furthermore, the bandages enveloping his left arm stand as a testament to the injurious treatment inflicted by the maltreating overseers of the aforementioned orphanage.

## Prejudices

Dante is a kleptomaniac. He can’t live a day without stealing from others. His reflexes are fast, and you won’t even see him coming. There’s also a possibility that he can commit murder. Due to Dante being mentally insane.

## Talents

Dante is an expert at woodworking and blacksmithing. Regardless of most springs earning their first weapon from Lightscar, Dante carved his own axe on his first day. When it comes to shelter, he can also make his own.

## Hobbies

Dante spends his free time making weapons and items for his allies.

## Background

He spent his early years as an orphan, alongside his siblings, in a challenging environment. The orphanage caretakers were extremely abusive, often forcing him to run errands while they relaxed. At one point, an elderly woman expressed interest in adopting him alone, but he refused, wanting his siblings to be adopted as well. In response, the woman inflicted a scar on his left eye before leaving the orphanage. Constantly being yelled at caused him significant emotional distress. He was unable to defend himself and express his feelings, as any retaliation would result in relentless physical punishment, leaving him feeling weak and miserable. As a result, Dante grew up with a limited ability to convey his emotions, resorting to smiling and trying to have a positive impact on those around him.

Following a tragic event, the twins were separated from their younger brother. Later, they all became trapped within a crystal for a staggering duration of 164 years. When they eventually awoke, the twins miraculously found themselves together. They both shared an android companion and, upon learning about 'Lightscar,' they became determined to locate him first. It's worth noting that these twins possess an intense competitive streak.

## Relationship/s

### Springs:

#### Amana

Dante's first encounter with Amana happened when he rescued Ziam, preventing them from plummeting off the edge of a cliff. Amana expressed her gratitude for the rescue, while Ziam remained skeptical of him, viewing him as an enigmatic stranger. As they entered the Mountain of Plymgueuil, theit attention was captivated by a jewel containing Lightscar's energy. He explained its significance to them – thru speculated that it could aid them in locating the scientist more effectively.

Their plans were interrupted when they attempted to take possession of the jewel and a formidable "Risk" emerged in the form of a Yeti. This unexpected event led them into a challenging battle against the creature, resulting in significant injuries for each of them. Following the fight, a thought crossed his mind: to seize the jewel for his personal gain and abandon his companions, an act of betrayal. However, Amana managed to thwart this idea, proposing an alternative. She agreed to help him find his sister, and in return, they would share the jewel's power.

At the outset, both Amana and Ziam treated him with suspicion, even going as far as confiscating his spear to prevent any mischievous actions on his part. Yet, as their journey unfolded, Amana's stance towards him softened, coinciding with the growth of their mutual understanding. Their interactions deepened, involving the exchange of personal stories and late-night conversations that took place while the others were asleep. With time, their relationship transformed into one resembling that of siblings, and he gradually adopted a protective role when it came to Amana's well-being.

### Android/s:

There's not much information about Dante's bot. But it was confirmed that he and Lavinia share the same Android. However, no one other than these two know what happened to it. So it remains a mystery.

### Familial:

#### His Twin Sister

Dante and Lavinia entered the world as twins, Dante taking the role of the elder. Their early years were marked by hardship, as they were left abandoned and compelled to grow up within the confines of an orphanage, their younger brother in tow. Lavinia, a delicate and fragile soul, required special safeguarding, a duty that Dante assumed with unwavering dedication. Amidst the oppressive presence of abusive caretakers, he acted as her stalwart shield, valiantly shielding her from harm's reach. In Lavinia and their younger brother, Dante found the sole remnants of his family, leaving him with an unshakeable commitment to their well-being, regardless of the trials that lay ahead. His affection for Lavinia knows no bounds, and their connection runs so profound that it seems to transcend the physical realm, reaching towards the essence of their very souls.

At present, his paramount aspiration is the reunion of their fragmented family, his purpose tightly interwoven with supporting their collective aspirations. Dante stands resolved to provide the protection and care they require, fortified by a bond that not only defines their relationship but also shapes his identity as Lavinia's unwavering guardian.

#### His Younger Brother

We don't know much about his younger brother, but he was rumored to have 'Daemon' as an alias. Daemon remains as a mysterious character for the time being. But similar to Lavinia, he was also fragile as explained by Dante. Dante fears his brother because of his unusual behavior as a child, but he loves him nonetheless. The two would often go on stealing-sprees when they were little, so they were quite close.

### Romances:

#### Valentina

Dante's infatuation with Valentina blossomed from the very moment he laid eyes upon her. Regrettably, his sentiments remain concealed from her, as she is unaware of the depth of his affection. Employing a curious strategy, Dante occasionally orchestrated scenarios leading to his own injury, solely for the privilege of being tended to by Valentina. She, however, perceives his actions as those of a somewhat careless individual. Despite this, their bond is undeniably strong, fostering a close friendship. Dante consistently extends his support whenever she requires it, addressing her as 'Ma'am,' a term of endearment that he employs. Unfortunately, Valentina regards this gesture as merely an expression of camaraderie.
