The legendary dark knight who defeated the Devil-king some 2000 years ago. When sealing the netherworld, sensing his power had grown too strong, he intentionally seals himself in as well.
~ Sparda's description

Background

Sparda is a character from the Devil May Cry series. Known as the Legendary Dark Knight, Sparda was a demon from the Demon Realm who once served as the right-hand of the Dark Prince, Mundus. However, as the Demon Realm began to invade the Human Realm, Sparda woke up to the truth and turned against his former allies, defeating Mundus and sealing away the Demon Realm.

Now in the Human Realm, Sparda shed most of his demonic power and settled down for the next two millennia. Eventually, he fell in love with a human woman named Eva, with whom he had two sons, Dante and Vergil. Before his death, Sparda passed onto his sons the Rebellion and Yamato swords. After his death, Sparda would be revered as the legendary savior of mankind.

Equipment


  • Rebellion: This large sword is one Sparda wielded long ago, which held the ability to fuse together Human and Demon power. Rebellion is a magic blade, though its true power has not truly awakened until Dante's confrontation against Vergil atop the Temen-ni-gru. Sparda gifted this sword to Dante before his disappearance.
  • Yamato: This blade is one Sparda wielded with deadly accuracy, long ago. It is said that his speed of his techniques are simply too fast for the human eye to come up with when wielding this blade. This sword was previously used by Sparda to seal away the pathway between the Human and Demon Realm, before he gave it to Vergil as a memento before his disappearance.
  • Force Edge: This sword was used to defeat Mundus and seal the gateway of the Underworld for two millennia. When combined with the two Amulets gifted to Dante and Vergil, the Force Edge reaches its true form as the Devil Sword Sparda. As a memento before his disappearance, Sparda gifted this sword to his sons.
  • Devil Sword Sparda: The legendary Sword of Sparda is the true form of the Force Edge, the actual blade used to defeat the Emperor of the Dark and prevent the entrance of the Underworld into our realm. The Sparda only assumes its true form after the Perfect Amulet is found. This weapon contains Sparda's demonic power, can be extended into a long spear-like weapon, and it can even take on a scythe shape.

  • Luce & Ombra: A set of dual handguns designed for rapid-fire action, which Sparda used long ago. After knocking an enemy into the air, Sparda can hold it in the air and "bullet juggle" it by constantly firing until the enemy disintegrates. Because of their ease of fire at a rapid rate, Luce and Ombra are Sparda's go-to firearms.

  • Perfect Amulet: A double-sided ruby pendant that allows for entry into the Underworld. It can also be used for awakening the true form of the Force Edge blade, transforming it into the Devil Sword Sparda. Sparda held this Amulet for centuries during his time on Earth, eventually gifting it to his human wife, Eva, who then gave two halves of it to their sons.
