| ~ Marc Antony after emerging from Cleopatra's mouth. |
Marcus Antonius, commonly known in English as Mark Antony, or Marc Antony in the game, is a minor antagonist in the 2010 video game Dante's Inferno, where he acted as the boss of the Circle of Lust, along with his lover Cleopatra. He was a former Roman politician and general that was sent to Hell for his sins.
He was voiced by Lewis MacLeod, who also voiced Protoboy, among other villains in Robotboy, Zaid in Horizon: Zero Dawn, and The Entity in Mr. Hopp's Playhouse 3.
History[]
Marc Anthony summoned by Cleopatra.
After he committed suicide, Marc Antony was sent to the second Circle of Hell, Lust, along with his lover, Cleopatra, where he became a hulking Demon. After Dante managed to reach the top of the Carnal Tower and faced off against Cleopatra, the former Egyptian queen released Antony from within her, where he had been placed as part of a deal she had made with Lucifer.
He asked that she let him have Dante, to which she agreed. Marc Antony then began to fight the crusader, but despite his great strength and Cleopatra supporting him with her magic, Antony was defeated.
When he lay motionless on the ground, Cleopatra came over to mourn him, but she directed her attention to Dante shortly afterwards.
Powers and Abilities[]
Marc Antony possessed great strength and fought with a large sword that could be charged with flames, as well as a Roman shield. He was also able to send out a chain of swords that shot up from the ground, stomp on his foes with a fire charged foot, and slam the ground with his sword to send out a fiery shockwave.
Trivia[]
- Like in the game, in real life Mark Antony was a supporter of his mother's cousin Julius Caesar and one of Rome's greatest generals. He later traveled to Egypt, where Cleopatra seduced him and led him to desert Rome and join Egypt in her war against Emperor Augustus.
- Antony's wife Fulvia is also in Hell as a Damned Soul, and can be either condemned or absolved by Dante.
- While both Antony and his lover Cleopatra are suicides, as well as guilty of multiple other sins, they ended up in the Circle of Lust due to lust being their major and definitive sin, which was motivation of their worst actions and the consequent bloodshed it brought about.
