Age at the Reunion: Let's say 36.
Backstory I've Worked Out So Far: We're going full classic DMC canon, whoo! Dante'll hail from (a reboot take on) the end of the anime series, running a devil hunting/supernatural detective agency called Devil May Cry with his (business) partner Trish, a demon. They were on the outs for a while, but well, there was that whole Abigail situation recently, so Trish is back to stay, at least for now.
He's not the absolute best in the world at writing anyone, but he'll probably have wound up randomly showing up at the homes of whoever stayed in contact with him, every now and again.
He's mellowed a lot... in his way. He's been white-haired for nearly twenty years, and he's just relaxing off a small bout of 'being nailed to a cross and left for dead in the demon world by an ancient, powerful demon called Abigail some asshole demon conjured back into the world while he wasn't watching'. He's better now! Bounced back in style. But that was a thing.
He found out what he was and who a long time ago, and lost his brother - with whom he'd been fueding for some time - when Vergil choose to remain in the demon world. All of that's been out in the open for a long time, though he doesn't talk about Vergil a whole lot and probably never has.
Anders has been living in the Devil May Cry building for years, and Kathy may as well have moved in by the time the reunion happened. He's cool with this.
(Warning: last three links are to clips from the anime for context and, well, it's DMC. There's a lot of blood.)
How Your Character Can Fit In: Frequent visitor, pen pal who occasionally has to call to yell at him for not responding often enough, long-suffering 'he showed up that one time', or hell, maybe you were involved in any of his bouts of demon-fighting over the years. Who knows? Hell, loads of people have probably cycled through crashing at DMC for a while. I'm open.
ETA: Almost forgot to mention, but he hasn't aged since hitting 25. He got away with it for a while, but it's starting to show.
