Dante is an old vampire from around in 1001 A.D. Dante was born in Rome and when his parents gave him to a vampire for food, the vampire spared him and changed him into the blood sucker he is now. A few years afterward, he hunted down his parents and killed them when they acted as if they never had a son. He later was accepted by a clan of Italian Vampires, but later left due to the clan's clash with werewolves. He works at The Crystal Moon Inn, which is run by his friend Shyama Synia.
