This list features the characters in the Dante's Inferno video game loosely based on the Inferno of Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy.[1][2]

Characters

Main characters

  • Dante Alighieri (voiced by Graham McTavish in English version and by Toshiyuki Morikawa in Japanese) - The game's primary protagonist and a far cry from the actual figure, Dante is depicted as a Templar knight of the Third Crusade. Swearing a vow of faith to Beatrice, Dante broke it before slaughtering Muslim prisoners of war, seeing them as subhuman. After Francisco gave his life up to save him from the king's retribution, Dante is killed during the siege on Acre where he confronts Death and learns that he was not on a holy mission. Taking Death's Scythe as his own, enabling him to return to the land of the living, a disillusioned Dante left for Florence while he had sewn a red tapestry detailing the events of his sins into his chest. After finding his father and Beatrice dead, Dante purses the latter to Hell with the cross she gave him long ago where he faces his horrific past and manages to redeem himself before ending up in Purgatory where he rips the tapestry off of him and discards it as he begins a new journey.
  • Beatrice Portinari (voiced by Vanessa Branch in English version and by Ayako Kawasumi in Japanese) - Beatrice Portinari is Dante's now deceased fiance. She serves as Dante's primary motivation as he goes deeper into Hell to rescue her from being used by Lucifer as a way for him to escape from Hell. She, along with Dante's father and servants, were killed prior to Dante's return to Florence after being stabbed to death by the assassin. Furthermore, betting her soul on Dante's faithfulness to her, Beatrice is kidnapped by Lucifer who later tempts her into giving herself to him after revealing how her brother died. Though she despised Dante for his actions against her, she is restored to normal after seeing that he kept her cross before being spirited off into Heaven. Her appearance was a naked soul.
  • Publius Vergilius Maro (Virgil) (voiced by Bart McCarthy in the video game, Peter Jessop in the animated film) - One of Rome's greatest poets, now long deceased, Virgil acts as a guide to Dante (similar to his role in the original poem), explaining each of the circles of Hell and their purposes. As such, all of his dialogue comes from the poem. He is depicted as a tall, bald man dressed in a toga and a spiked crown. He is one of the virtuous souls inhabiting Limbo, punished only by knowing they will never see God.

Secondary characters

  • Death (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker and Richard Moll) - All are destined to face the ominous specter of Death. The harvester of souls severs the ties that bind the body and spirit when the time arrives, and ushers the newly departed into the next realm. Dante ends up fighting Death after he was stabbed by an assassin. Dante ends up defeating Death and claimed his scythe as a weapon.
  • Charon (voiced by Bart McCarthy) - Those souls condemned to suffer the eternal fire must take passage aboard the ancient boatman's vessel. He ferries them across the River Acheron where they are to be judged for their grievous sins. Dante manages to rip the head of Charon off the boat which is later seen at the entrance to King Minos' palace stating that he is eternal.
  • King Minos (voiced by Richard Moll in the video game, Kevin Michael Richardson in the animated movie) - The tyrannical judge of Limbo sits before the entrance to the Circle of Lust assessing the sins of the damned before sentencing them to their eternal place in Hell. In the animated film, King Minos is less interested in Dante until he goads King Minos to fight him. The fight is brief, and he is killed by his own wheel which flings him out of his court clearing the way for Dante to move on. With his death, damned souls flee from Minos's palace in an attempt to escape. Virgil stated that Lucifer will not be pleased with this.
  • Cleopatra VII (voiced by Allison Lees-Taylor) - The only thing more compelling than her beauty was her lust for power. The Queen of the Nile is granted reign over the Circle of Lust tormenting those who were unable to overcome their lewd desires. Her lover Marc Antony resides inside her as part of her deal with Lucifer. She can unleash him from inside her whenever she chooses. Dante encounters her at the top of the tower where she brings up Dante's involvement with a slave girl before unleashing Mark Anthony. After Antony is defeated, she will appear on her normal size, crying for his death, then she will try to seduce Dante to ensure her survival, emitting moans of ecstasy. If the button sequence is successfully completed, Dante will stab her in the heart, ending her domain over lust. She bears a Glasgow smile and has the ability to produce enemies from her mouth-like nipples. In the animated film, Cleopatra does not appear as a ruler, but as her regular self flying in the lust storm.
  • Mark Antony (voiced by Lewis Macleod) - The mighty Roman general who watches over the realm of Cleopatra, his lover. His reputation as a formidable military leader is only foreshadowed by the stories of his vile and lecherous conduct. Corrupted by the powers of Hell, Mark Anthony is a towering humanoid armed with a great sword and a massive Roman shield, a hideously disfigured and oversized torso, and a half-skinned statuesque head covered with groping hand-like wooden patterns on his body. He is defeated by Dante and dies while a mourning Cleopatra watches over him.
  • Cerberus - This three-headed monster stands guard before the Circle of Gluttony rending and flailing the sinners condemned to its post. No soul may pass without confronting the beast. When Dante sees Cerberus, he appears as a three-headed worm escaping from a large humanoid maw in the ground and having numerous other worms sticking out of each of its heads. The three heads also constantly fight over their meals and in some cases will vomit out anything that is consumed, even using these as projectiles against his prey. Despite having front legs, the demon is completely immobile due to being stuck in the ground from the mid section up. Dante succeeds in killing the demon by severing each of his heads before destroying the middle head in an explosion after Cerberus tried to unsuccessfully devour Dante. Cerberus appears in the animated film much as he does in the game, but he is more active, marching across Gluttony and eating souls. In order to pass through Gluttony, Dante allows himself to be swallowed, where he then makes his way through the monster's bowls eventually destroying the beast's heart finally killing him for good.
  • Alighiero (voiced by JB Blanc in the video game, Mark Hamill in the animated movie) - Dante's father, wholly unconcerned with the suffering of those around him, led a life of excess and greed. He spent his life hoarding his wealth, cheating those less fortunate, and abusing his family. Dante encountered his father in demonic form in the Circle of Greed. After Dante defeated his father, he ended up absolving him. In the animated film, Dante ends up fighting his father Alighiero in the Circle of Greed. When he first meets Dante in Hell, he reveals that Lucifer has promised him a thousand years free of torture, and all the gold he could ever want, if he kills his own son. After a long battle, Dante defeats his father and kicks him into a giant vat of boiling gold.
  • Phlegyas (voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson in the animated movie) - The mighty Phlegyas set fire to the Temple of Delphi in a fit of unholy rage. The King of the Lapiths is forever condemned to ferry souls across the River Styx for his insolence against the divine. Dante unknowingly rides across the Styx on the wrathful demigod's crown. After fighting his way towards Dis and seeing Beatrice become Lucifer's bride, Dante takes control of Phlegyas and uses him to break into the City of Dis. When Dante reaches the circle of Heresy, Phlegyas breaks the ground he's standing on. Dante manages to jump off in time, but Phlegyas breaks through the floor and plummets into the abyss. In the animated film, Phlegyas's appearance is more toned down as he appears in the film as a green-skinned humanoid who willingly took Dante and Virgil through the fifth circle of Hell without incident. He was knocked out by Lucifer when Dante controlled Phlegyas to charge Lucifer.
  • Francesco (voiced by Tom Tate) - The brother of Beatrice left Florence with noble intent, only to be misled by Dante, his closest ally. Dante stood silent as Francesco was condemned to death, although Dante promised Beatrice he would protect him. When Dante was "comforted" by the slave girl, he held back her husband from trying to kill Dante. He keeps arguing with Dante throughout the Crusades in what Dante is doing when it comes to preserving the slaves in order to make a truce by order of the King or slaughtering them. In an uncontrollable rage, Dante kills them all. When King Richard sees this, he demands the accused to step forward. Francesco takes the fall in order to save his "brother" and is sentenced to be hanged as Dante flees. Dante encountered Francesco in his demonic appearance on Geryon's Back near the Phlegathon River in the Abominable Sands within the Circle of Violence. When Dante removes the sword from him, Francesco dies and is absolved by Dante. Francesco appears in the animated film, but his appearance is different from the game: while his body is deformed and plant-like, Francesco not only retains his human form (except he had lost his left eye), but had blond hair and beard (although some parts of the movie itself depicts him with brown hair and beard), while in the game, his was brown-headed. He is outfitted with a Templar robe and had no sword stuck in his heart. Dante meets him on Geryon's back and fights him. Upon defeat, Francesco dissolves into sand. Virgil says that he may rest, but that he is forever linked to the seventh circle. Dante prays to God for Francesco to be freed, but is interrupted by Lucifer who taunts Dante. It is unknown if Dante's prayers to God had any effect on Francesco.
  • Lucifer (voiced by John Vickery in the video game, Steven Blum in the animated film) - The Lord of the Inferno, Dis Himself, and Emperor of the Woeful Realm. The Dark Angel cast down from Heaven for his rebellion against God, lies imprisoned within a frozen pool of ice in the ninth sphere, his throne room. It is here he conspires to overthrow Paradise and reclaim his former glory and divinity. Lucifer is the king of hell, and indulges in all its infinite pleasures, via his "shadow self". His wings are torn off, his true form is trapped inside an enormous, monstrous body with three heads. His true form is a ruined vision of his former glory, an angel with broken wings, bestial features and glowing scars all over his body and glowing tears.

Creatures

  • Anger Minions - Their frail bodies are unable to contain the intolerable rage that burns inside them. Their anger lights to fire it burns so hot, culminating in a sudden burst of fury.

Minor characters

  • Bella Alighieri (voiced by Pollyana McIntosh in the video game, Victoria Tennant in the animated movie) - Dante's pious mother, who was regularly beaten and abused by her husband and ultimately hanged herself in despair. Dante was told she died of a fever, and only learns the truth when he encounters her in the Wood of Suicides.

  • The Bishop of Florence (voiced by Peter Egan) - A minor character who deceives Dante and the other Crusaders into thinking they will be forgiven for all their sins for taking part in the Crusades.

Prior to the siege of Acre, he kept 3,000 Muslim prisoners hostage as a way to negotiate with Saladin. But Dante, in his fanaticism, slaughters them. Francesco took the blame on Dante's behalf. Enraged, the King ordered Beatrice's brother to be executed before declaring a siege on Acre in fear of Saladin's retaliation for the horrific act.

Damned souls

In the game, Dante encounters several souls that are consigned to Hell (most are based on those encountered in the poem). The player has the option of absolving the souls (which leads to a button-pressing game before their ascension to Heaven) or punishing the souls (which has Dante gut-punching them and driving the scythe blade through their heads where they turn to ashes) to boost their Holy or Unholy meters. Doing either one to the Damned Souls gets "The Damned" achievement. The following are listed in order of appearance:

Absolving them gets the "Forbidden Love" achievement.
  • Semiramis (voiced by Adjoa Andoh) - The Queen of Assyria who was so consumed with lechery that she made lustful desires lawful to erase the blame placed on her, she now suffers in the Circle of Lust.
