Tall, dark, and handsome. Dante stands somewhere around six feet tall, with thick dreads that fall just past his shoulders in length. At any point in time, they can be left down - or tied back depending on how 'business casual' the moment is. His frame is square and athletic without being bulky; Lean muscle. Dante wears a tailored black suit, accompanied by gold accessories; Buttons; cuff-links, etc.
Dante was born into a family where knowledge of the occult had been passed down for generations. His parents were religious figures who collected and distributed trinkets to ward against and fight the things that go 'bump' in the night.
His parents were known for keeping a "secret" room in their house filled with all kinds of occult trinkets and supplies. When the elders finally decided to reveal the secret location of this area to Dante, they did so with some concern that his entrepreneurial mindset might prove problematic.
As Dante grew older, he learned more about his family's beliefs. He learned how to use the magic tools his parents had given him. At first, he was afraid to use them—But eventually, he saw that if used properly, they would help him reach his goals. His parents had seen protection from the unknown—but Dante knew what opportunities power could bring.
The moment the armory was passed onto him, when his parents retired from their duties as guardians, Dante packed up shop to start his enterprise. There was profit in protection, sure. But even more in brokering, discovery, and using those tools to acquire more over time.
