-'''Dante''' entered the [[SPARTAN-III]] program, developed by [[Colonel (UNSC)|Colonel]] [[James Ackerson|James Ackerson]], around [[2546]] while between the age of 5 and [[7]] when he, along with other orphans, volunteered to become a [[SPARTAN-III]] to avenge his family or home planet after their destruction by the Covenant. Once on Onyx, he and the other spartan candidates were trained by [[Senior Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez|Mendez]]; surviving [[Beta Company]] SPARTAN-IIIs [[Lucy-B091]] and [[Tom-B292]]; and SPARTAN-II, [[Lieutenant Commander]] [[Kurt Ambrose]] a.k.a. [[SPARTAN-051]]. He was in [[Team Saber]], one of the leading squads in the Gamma generation of Spartan III's.

-He had near magical abilities when it came to explosives<ref>[[Halo:Ghosts of Onyx]] pg.116</ref>. He always knew when they would explode, and when they would fail too. He was the first casualty of Team Saber due to a combination of [[plasma]] fire and [[Needler]] rounds to his side while helping [[Lucy-B091]] drag an injured [[Frederic-104|Fred]] to safety after covering the group's rear as they retreated. Dante fell behind as the group retreated, and caught up just when [[Kurt-051]] noticed his disappearance, limping and holding his side. After stating "Sir, I think I got nicked", Dante collapsed and died.

 ==Trivia==
-*When Kurt checked his body he realized that not only had a plasma bolt grazed Dante's left side but also half a dozen needler shards had lodged and detonated under his arm and across his chest, leaving his ribs clearly visible<ref>[[Halo:Ghosts of Onyx]] pg.309</ref>. They carried him into the [[Shield World]] where he was buried alongside [[SPARTAN-043]] "William".

They carried him into the [[Shield World]] where he was buried alongside [[SPARTAN-043]] "William".
+*If there were only "half a dozen" Needler shards that had lodged and detonated in Dante, then that would not have been possible as it takes at least [[7]] to cause an explosion.
 *The fact that Dante had not been aware how serious his injuries were was due to his altered frontal lobe, which sustained him even though he should have slipped into shock. Dante had only died once the blood loss had been severe.
