Dante: imagine you getting a job and your manager is the type of girl to chug a whole monster energy drink and then say “haha level up” and she does this every day
Dante is a tired individual. They do their best to treat everyone fairly and kindly but life has been stressful lately. They’re quick-witted and good at planning long-term. In contrast to Ashe, they’re rather trusting and ready to see the best in people, no matter what their opinions are.
Dante works as a paid intern at a small time newspaper. However, that’s just their day job. After work hours, Dante comes back to find that Ashe has broken into his house to teach him some magic. They’re a cranky member of the workforce by day, but a tired mage in training by night. Dante chooses to focus on learning healing magic, much to Ashe’s dismay. Healing magic takes many forms so they begin carrying tools and other needed material around with them.
Dante was adopted by a couple living in Albany, New York. Not long after they were born, their parents divorced on good terms. Their mother took sole custody of them and later began a loving relationship with another woman. The two raised Dante to be independent, accepting of others, and not to take shit lying down. They were very supportive when Dante came out as agender. Dante moved into their own apartment at age 21 and has been maintaining a shitty job as an intern at a newspaper company.
Dante lived a majority of their life without any knowledge of magic or the world surrounding it. They became the Harry Potter of this story when Ashe came crashing into their apartment in the middle of the night. That story and one-shots of Dantes’s life will be posted on my other blog @creatively-unoriginal. Info dumps about their world and the other characters in it will be on this blog, coming later!
