Dante Alozade

"Life is more than what you think it is. It has it's ups, and it has it's downs. There are times that make you wish you had more in life and those that says enough is enough. But through all the chaos..... Through all the serenity..... Through all the neutrality..... there's one thing that stands out. Life is life. The strong devour the weak, and people overpower each other in a struggle to survive. We believe in many things that happen as a work of a supernatural force. Yes, that may be true in some cases based on the world we live in, but we make our own choices and decisions. This is what many people refer to as "destiny" or "fate". But to me..... All is significant in each way. Whether it'd be plants, animals, the magic that we use or human beings themselves. Everything has meaning. That's why it's important to live out life as much as we can. Because in the end, we come face-to-face with the one thing we tend not to think about..... DEATH!!!"

- Dante to one of his companions, talking about the value of life.

"Shall we dance?"

- Dante's pre-battle catchphrase.

Dante Alozade (ダンテ·そそる, Arouzarde Dante), his real name being Dante Alighieri (ダンテ·アリギエリ, Arigrieri Dante), is a young teen who is the former heir to the throne in his home country of Infernius. Seeing the evils that the country's current king, his father, Ignatius Alighieri, has committed against its people and the lands surrounding it, he defected one night without anyone noticing. He soon joined a rebel army in order to fight back against the tyranny of his father. He's is the main character of the story, Fairy Tail: Tales of the Forgotten. In it, he experiences the ways of the world outside his kingdom. Because of his magical prowess and feats he's done in the name of the rebel army, he's known as Dante of the Revolution(革命のダンテ, Kakumei no dante).

As the main protagonist, Dante's point-of-views allows the reader to experience the many conflicting emotions of the characters in the world of the story, giving them a sensation comparable no other. Because of his past, his kind nature, his leadership, his desire to be a just king, and his need to help others around him, even if it means putting his life on the line, he has unknowingly attracted the friendships and love interests of various characters in the series, whether minor or major, or changed the world views of others in a positive light, sympathizing with him and joining his cause. This reference has been jokingly made by his older brother Erebus, stating that his life is like that of a typical hero in some tale, always paving a way to new possibilities to many new horizons.
