Background
Vergil is a major antagonist of the Devil May Cry series. He is the brother of legendary Devil Hunter, Dante, and the byproduct of the love between a human woman, and the legendary demonic knight named Sparda. As half-Demons, Vergil and Dante have been gifted extraordinary powers.
After experiencing the trauma of his mother's death, and his own abandonment, Vergil sought only power, and pursued his need to kill Dante for their fundamental differences in morality. Through suffering defeat after defeat, however, Vergil was eventually enslaved by the Dark Prince, Mundus, and turned into the mindless Nelo Angelo.
Eventually escaping his enslavement as the Dark Angel, Vergil's body reached its limit, and as such he used his Yamato blade to divide his human and demon selves, thus creating V and Urizen. After a long adventure, V reunited with Urizen, and Vergil returned to his full strength once again, this time finding opposition in the form of his estranged son, Nero.

Attack Potency: High Mass Star level (Has been depicted to be able to face Sanctus.

Although Vergil is part human, and thus does have a definable limit on his stamina, he is still beyond regular humans. Vergil is capable of fighting through dozens of areas filled with hostiles, that he defeats in extremely acrobatic manners, without taking a break or showing any signs of fatigue)
Range: Standard Melee, Extended Melee with Yamato
Intelligence: Genius in combat (Vergil is extremely intelligent in the field of combat, capable of instantly adapting to the fighting styles of massively different varieties of demons.

Equipment
- Yamato: Vergil's primary weapon is the Yamato sword, which he wields with deadly accuracy. 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. The Yamato was given to Vergil as a keepsake by his father, the Legendary Dark Knight Sparda, and was previously used by Sparda to seal away the pathway between the Human and Demon Realm.
-
Yamato
- Amulet: A keepsake amulet from Vergil's birth-mother, Eva. It possesses mysterious power that is released when fused with Dante's identical amulet.

- Beowulf: These gauntlets and greaves use the heavenly power of flash to strike down demonic entities with holy retribution. Although extremely powerful, the Beowulf set requires that Vergil get up close and personal with his target. However, the punches and kicks he can deliver with this set leave even the toughest enemies reeling!
-
Beowulf
- Force Edge: Force Edge is a memento from Vergil's father, the legendary Dark Knight Sparda. The 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.

Beowulf
- Mirage Edge: A weapon shaped from Vergil's own infernal energy. There's something about this blade—its shape and attacks—that resembles Force Edge, the sword his father wielded so long ago.
-
Mirage Edge
- Red Orb: A magic red stone of crystallized demon blood. Red Orbs are most often obtained by defeating enemies. They can also be found by smashing furniture, or they may fall out of the thin area when Dante lands on hard-to-reach surfaces. Red Orbs can be used as currency to buy upgrades for the firepower of weapons, and to purchase new actions for Devil Arms. Items such as Vital Stars and Devil Stars can also be purchased with Red Orbs.
-
Red Orb
- Green Orb: A magic green stone of crystallized demon essence. When Dante absorbs a Green Orb, his life is restored. Defeated enemies sometimes drop Green Orbs, but only if Dante's life gauge is partially empty and the combo meter is a high level when the enemy dies.
-
Green Orb
- White Orb: A magical white stone of crystallized devilspirit. When Dante absorbs a White Orb, power is replenished in the Devil Trigger gauge. White Orbs are located in rate spots on the map.
-
White Orb
- Blue Orb: A magic blue stone of crystallized life power. It boosts one's maximum life. Each Blue Orb extends Dante's life meter by one segment, allowing him to sustain more damage before dying. Blue Orbs can be obtained by collecting four Blue Orb fragments.
-
Blue Orb
- Purple Orb: Orbs that can be purchased through the shop menu. Each Purple Orb extends Dante's Devil Trigger gauge by one segment. The longer the Devil Trigger gauge extends, the longer Dante can remain in Devil Trigger mode.
-
Purple Orb
- Gold Orb: Gold Orbs allow Dante to continue if killed during a mission, without having to restart the mission from the beginning. Yellow Orbs are sometimes found on the map, and they can also be purchased from the shop menu by spending Red Orbs. Dante can only purchase three Yellow Orbs ever.
-
Gold Orb
- Vital Star: A spiritual stone made using alchemy. They come in two variants; Vital Star S, which restores a small amount of life, and Vital Star L, which restores a large amount of life.
-
Vital Star
- Devil Star: A spiritual stone made using alchemy that restores a large amount of magic power. Devil Stars can be found in certain locations, or purchased through the shop menu.

Notable Techniques
- Dark Slayer: A Style used by a warrior fallen from grace. The power of darkness gives birth to new weapons and skills. Vergil's Dark Slayer Style acts much like Dante's Trickster Style, though it also focuses greatly on teleportation as a means of evasion, and summoning swords as projectiles as opposed to using firearms.
-
Dark Slayer
- Judgement Cut: An incredibly fast attack utilizing the space-cutting powers of the Yamato. Simply through Vergil opening and then closing the Yamato, the enemy becomes overwhelmed by a slew of sword slashes. This works from no matter how far away Vergil is from his foe, this proving extremely deadly.
-
Judgement Cut
- Summoned Swords: Vergil hurls magically generated swords at the enemy. They home-in on the enemy and can be spawned as frequently as Vergil desires. He can also summon multiple of these teal blades to circle him, essentially creating a barrier around him.
-
Summoned Swords
- Stinger: When wielding the Force Edge or Mirage Edge, Vergil lunges forwards and spears the enemy. This move is a great way to approach enemies swiftly and knock them off balance, so that other attacks may follow. Dante usually follows-up Stinger by stabbing repeatedly at a rapid pace, which is referred to as Million Stab. Vergil's Stinger is quicker but has less range than Dante's.
-
Stinger
Other
Weaknesses: Vergil is extremely overconfident and overly-obsessed with defeating Dante. As stated by Dante himself, Vergil's main weakness is his inability to cope with his losses and acknowledge his trauma, which has led to him abandoning his human self in the past. This is further extended with Nelo Angelo, as him seeing Dante's Amulet in any fashion causes for him to have a violent mental breakdown.
