Dante Macleod

**Dante Macleod** is the powerful demon son of Abaddon and Crowley currently serving as the next line of Knights of Hell under Rowena Macleod as queen of hell.

## Personality

After Crowley abandoned Dante, he wanted no part in the life of the man who betrayed him instead retreating under his mother until her death at the hands of Dean Winchester. He instantly hated the Winchesters for their actions against demon-kind and his family but this fury eventually died down later on.

He appears to be arrogant and sarcastic, showing little to no regard for human life and using whatever people he can get his hands on as his personal playthings. He is also portrayed as a very impulsive demon, known for his self-destructive behavior and his devious, sadistic mind.

When his spirits are down, Dante solves his problems with alcohol usually bourbon or rum in coke but he often uses violence and murder to console himself.

After Rowena ascended to the throne of Hell, Dante returned to the fiery dimension and took over his mother's position as Knight of Hell particularly serving as the queen's bodyguard and personal assassin. He has displayed intense loyalty to his grandmother willing to kill those who question her orders and by his own count has already quashed an attempted coup d'etat twice.

He is also willing to use sex or at least the promise of it to extract information from others without having to use torture which he describes as "messy" and time consuming.

## Physical Appearance

Dante appears as an attractive Caucasian male in his early twenties with green eyes with a hint of hazel and dark brown hair. He has a slim yet muscular body and stands at around 5 foot 10.

While enraged or using his demon powers to a higher extent, his eyes completely gloss over black including his irises and sclera. When this happens it appears as if his pupils expands and consume them. He also sports a strange glowing tattoo on his back between his shoulder blades.

## Powers and Skills

### Demon Powers

* **Possession (possibly):** As the first demon born to two demons, it is unknown whether he was born with his body or if it is merely a vessel. However, it is likely that he possesses the common ability to transfer his essence into a human and take control of them.
* **Immortality:** Dante possesses an eternal lifespan being unaging and incapable of dying a mortal death.
	+ **Immunity:** Unlike most demons, as a Knight of Hell, Dante is immune to exorcism rites, consecrated ground, and the worst effects of the demon-killing knife. However, holy water and fire could still harm him as well as angel blades but could not kill him.
	+ **Invulnerability:** He is little affected by damage dealt to his body, even injuries as severe as being stabbed, gunshot wounds, decapitation, and dismemberment. He can be killed by the First Blade and primordial/cosmic beings as well as garrisons of angels. Dante was unaffected by taking a bath in acid.
* **Teleportation:** He is capable of transporting himself from one location to another without physically inhabiting the space in between. Dante is even able to go from hell to earth and vice versa.
* **Super Senses/Astral Perception:** As a demon, his senses are heightened and expanded as he was able to detect when other demons are nearby and perceive the true visage of Castiel.
* **Super Strength:** As a Knight of Hell, he is significantly stronger than common demons: he was able to easily shove Crowley, the King of Hell, to the ground and quickly overpower a crossroad demon.
* **Super Stamina:** He does not require food, water, or sleep to maintain himself. Dante can consume vast amounts of alcohol without dying and little effect. He was also unaffected by tear gas.
* **Electromagnetic Interference:** Dante's presence caused interference in a gas station security cameras and when emotional he caused light fixtures to flicker.

### Powers through magic

* **Witchcraft:** As a member of the famed Macleod family, he possesses on some level the natural ability to generate and manipulate mystical energy to cast spells and gain access to a plethora of supernatural powers separated from his demon powers. However, due to his demonic nature his magic is tainted by dark energy.
	+ **Telekinesis:** Dante has the ability to mentally influence both objects and people through gestures. Notable examples include; freezing people in place, throwing humans and even demons around, halting a hailstorm of bullets in mid air before reversing their trajectory, snap necks, open and shut doors for convenience, and etc.
