In DmC: Devil May Cry, Dante is a Nephilim, a half Demon and half Angel hybrid. As a Nephilim, he has access to abilities and weapons from both sides of his family.
At the start of DmC: Devil May Cry, Dante is unable to remember anything before seven years old. He is tracked down by his twin brother Vergil, leader of the mysterious Order, who helps him remember his past. He remembers that his father was the demon warrior Sparda and his mother was an angel, named Eva.
Demons and angels have always been at war, so love between the two was forbidden. Mundus, the king of Demons, found this out and killed their mother. As for their father, he was banished forever, never to return.
Vergil tells Dante that only Nephilim have the ability to kill a Demon King; thus they are the only ones that can take down Mundus. And so Dante's quest for revenge begins...
