Personality: Often maudlin and serious, Dante dislikes getting too close to people and is wary to trust. Obsesses over taking notes and keepsakes, as he knows nothing else will last. He long ago began to view his immortality as a curse and grows ever weary.
Family: Universally deceased.
Background: Dante has lived so long and been so many people he long ago began forgetting them all. He has been a soldier, a slave runner, a priest and everything between.
His life has been spent moving, either by choice or force as others realize his body never aged.
He has been married 30 or more times and though he loved each one as if she were his entire world, some he has forgotten the faces, some even the names.
He has been present for the waking of each Seven, passing on the knowledge and wisdom time has given him. Helping their struggle, for better or worse.
