- —Vergil to Dante
Vergil is an antagonist from the Devil May Cry series. He appeared in the 87th episode and Season 4 Finale of Death Battle, Sephiroth VS Vergil, where he fought against Sephiroth from the Final Fantasy series.
History
The Legendary Dark Knight Sparda was renowned throughout the world as the demon that turned his back on his own kind and separated the human world from the demon world. After marrying the human Eva, both Vergil and Dante were born. But shortly after, Sparda disappeared, and Vergil and his brother's lives would be forever changed after helplessly watching their own mother be murdered by demons. Vergil was wounded and left for dead, but survived his injuries. Believing himself responsible for not being able to protect his mother, Vergil sought absolute power by any means necessary, even going so far as to cast aside his humanity and fully embrace his demonic heritage. He would soon reunite with his brother and butt heads with him regularly. His desires for power brought about a permanent disfigurement and eventually, his seeming demise. But Vergil would soon resurface, and in the most unexpected places.
