Disclaimer: I own neither the Devil May Cry of Capcom nor the Bard of Avon.
And Trish's weapons deserve thanks too, because if they weren't so good she might start wearing full-body armor like Dante in 1 and 2.
Fear no more the
heat of the sun
Nor the cold winds bitter rages.
Home art gone
and ta'en their wages.
Golden boys and girls all must
Like
chimney sweepers.
Come to dust.

Dawn – Nightmare Beta/Gamma
It had been taken out of the mass, now a small whole instead of a minor part, planed as a replacement for the uncontrollable Nightmare, which obeyed the Emperor's programming save when it ran wild and the seals were needed, a shock of pain and light to control it.
It had been glad to not hurt what was once itself. But it wasn't that anymore. It had been improved, perfected even. And it wasn't a mass of madness.
The human-looking one had also been meant as a replacement, when the original was destroyed. The makers had had a rude awakening.
Day – Luce
They had fought, and they had lost, and now served the new Master. That was the code. Strength was all. They had knelt before him and asked how to serve him, the women they possessed made beautiful as the fools had wished.
Images. He had said that was all they were. But then he had learned of these new things called 'guns' and had adorned them with them, to lend their hosts their power and beauty, as always.
At least they had felt his hands, then. Though they had wished for more, as the other succubus did from the son.
Dusk – Ombra
They had fallen when he fell, the Dark Knight. The golden one the Knight had adored gathered them up and put them in a box as mementos. When the lid had closed, that was when they had mourned.
When it was opened again… but the golden one fell as well, they slipped from her grasp, blood red as her shawl as she died to protect their moon-pale children. As she fell on top of them, then they had mourned.
The one in red had thrown them aside and they mourned their unworthiness.
They would protect this one till she died.
