Biography

Dante was conscripted into the SPARTAN-III program, developed by James Ackerson around 2546 between the ages of 5 and 7 when he, along with other orphans volunteered to become Spartans and avenge his family, Home planet, or just because he wanted to be like the man in green(Kurt in his MJOLNIR armor). Once on Onyx, he and the other spartan candidates were trained by Senior Chief Petty Officer Mendez; surviving Beta Company SPARTAN-IIIs Lucy-B091 and Tom-B292; and SPARTAN-II, Lieutenant Commander Ambrose aka 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[2]. He always knew when they were about to go, and when they wouldn't. He is the first casualty of Team Saber due to a combination of plasma fire and needler rounds to his side while helping Lucy-B091 drag Fred to safety, Fred having been shot by a Hunter's Fuel Rod Cannon; after covering the group's back with some explosives Dante reunites with Kurt. Standing up straight, he saluted the Lieutenant Commander. "Sir, I think I got nicked." After that Dante collapses, and his bio-signs flat-line. When Kurt checks his body he realizes that not only had a plasma bolt grazed his left side but also half a dozen needler shards had lodged and detonated under his arm and across his chest, with ribs clearly visible[3]. They carry him into the Shield World where he is buried alongside SPARTAN-043.
