Birth And Early Childhood
Dante Marzullo was born in Ziost to Itala Marzullo and his wife Jen Katrina, and taken away from Itala before he was even born. It was Lord Dagger who took him along with his twin brother in the middle of the night, giving Itala the last laugh over The Sith Order.
Dante would quickly become the object and symbol of Itala's ambitions, training him ruthlessly in the ways of the force, moreso than Ares on purpose, to create the ultimate heir and leader for the future reign of blood which had been planned for years. From early on, Dante had been taught to be cruel, arrogant and merciless, mainly on the poor servants and soldiers who had no choice but lie down and receive all kinds of sadistic torture.
Adolescence
Itala wanted to make sure the boy would be indifferent towards the vilest of cruelties, sitting him in front of an infamous bonfire started by Orion Marzullo that took the lives of dozens of pregnant servant women. Not being able to believe what he was seeing, Dante would learn to lose his morals and respect for any living things outside of the family, human or alien alike.Always superior to Ares, ridiculing him in countless sparring sessions and during an organized tournament, Dante had become a formidable warrior early on, even giving Viktor Eroberer Marzullo a run for his money. After Itala noticed this, he would begin to prefer Dante and would only display affection towards him, inflating his ego more as the years passed.
This did not mean that Dante didn't love Itala, the mere word being banned from the language spoken in The Marzullo Clan, always welcoming the extra affection displayed over his weaker brother, but highly expecting to be the next ruler of TMC, and did not take the news of the creation of a clone too well.

Dante's Revolution
Nobody had noticed that Jen Katrina had managed to keep talking to Dante through the Force, manipulating him into taking what was rightfully his while his father waste time practicing idiotic torture, that it was finally time for the clan, for the family to have a strong and battle-hardened leader.
By mere accident, during a standard trip to pick up supplies, Dante runs into Radda Manthys who would barter a bitter deal with the young man in exchange of revenge. The young man's vulnerable mind had reached its critical point, driving him to act upon mere fantasies.
Even after all the plotting and deception, Dante did not make any moves against the family, wanting the revolt to be only between himself and Itala, but once he learned of Itala's desire to be replaced by a clone as opposed to his favorite son drove him past the point of no return.
A previous war with half-breds had left Dante with enormous curiosity to seek them, using Radda Manthys to seal a pact that would welcome them to the family in exchange of their assistance in eliminating Itala and his sympathizers. Dante had done his homework, employing the services of Tiranna Marzullo and a great deal of warriors from the clan's infamous Branch C.
Not much is known of the two-year-war between Itala and Dante, but at one point he managed to defeat his own powerful father, who would have normally made easy work out of defeating his own son. Dante had returned with Itala's entire severed arms, right and left to display in front of the shocked Ares and the last remaining loyalists.That was but a distraction, revealing an attack with the aim to capture the entire Marzullo fleet still under Ares' control, which would end up backfiring and nearly destroying the traitor's cause, along with his diminishing group of rogues. This battle would also show him the meaning of defeat, finally beaten fair and square by his weaker twin, and miraculously being spared his life twice during the battle, something that Dante promised he would make his brother regret.
Out of Character
Like with the twin Ares, the roleplayer behind Dante Marzullo is also Julian, having too many plans with the name Dante to put it in the character pool, while also remaining the Out Of character head of the roleplaying group.
Trivia
- Julian has roleplayed the character for 8 years, second only to Itala in length.
- The celebrity for the adult Dante is Francesco Totti, a legendary footballer in Italy and winner of the 2006 World Cup in Germany.
- Everything that is happening between the twins and the war has been preconceived since the creation of TMC, but skipped the war in order to start fresh and boost enthusiasm for the move to Swfans.
