Sparda was a mighty demon swordsman who is known as the "Legendary Dark Knight". Two thousands years ago, he "woke up to justice" and alone defeated Mundus and his legions. Sensing his power and grown too strong when sealing the netherworld, he intentionally sealed himself and his demonic power. Later, he escaped his prison under unrevealed circumstances, quietly reigned over the human world, and continued to preserve harmony. Eventually, a few centuries before the beginning of the series, he also contended against Argosax with help from the Vie De Mari clan before sealing himself and Argosax once more, after which he somehow managed to escape yet again. After this, before his death, he resurfaced in the modern day and married a human named Eva, who gave birth to his two sons, Dante and Vergil.
