Biography
Mary Ann Arkham was a female human born as the daughter of Arkham and Kalina Ann where she inherited the blood of the legendary priestess who Sparda had slain to seal the Temen-ni-gru. However, at some point her father became obsessed with the legend and the possibility of obtaining Sparda's power, and slew Kalina Ann, his wife and Lady's mother. At this time, Lady disowned him and renounced her name before committing to the path of a Devil Hunter.
In a quest for revenge, she begins to climb the Temen-ni-gru in pursuit of Arkham. She first meets Dante just after his battle with Cerberus. She fires a missile from Kalina Ann at Dante, who dodges the missile and rides it around the chamber like a flying surfboard. After the missile blows a hole in the wall, Mary uses the new entrance to continue up the tower. She fights her way up through the tower, taking a different path than Dante. As she approaches the top, she is confronted by Arkham, who calmly asks her why she points a gun at her own kin. She then claims the only family she had was her mother and attempts to shoot him, but Arkham dodges her bullets and flips her off the side of the tower. She fires at him with her handguns as she falls, and one bullet grazes his cheek. Below, Dante, in devilishly proper timing, catches her by the ankle. She demands that Dante let her go, but Dante jokes that it would be waste if she were to end up as "just a pretty stain". She then shoots Dante in the forehead, and he drops her. By jamming the blade of the Kalina Ann into the wall of the tower, she manages to stop her fall only a short distance away. Dante peers over the ledge to express his outrage at being shot, so she shoots at him again. This time Dante catches the bullet in his teeth but leaves her be. This has her suspect of Dante being a demon. Still, without a name, she presses on. She does not see Dante again until Leviathan nearly falls on her. Not sure what to make of it, she draws her gun as the eye begins to move. In a fountain of blood, Dante bursts forth from the eye. He starts to walk away, following a sign left by Jester, but she stops him. The two exchange a few words but are attacked by demons. She and Dante stand back-to-back and fight off the demons. During the battle, Dante asks what her name is, to which Mary responds that she doesn't have one and that he can call her whatever he likes. Dante, in a rather dismissive way, replies "Whatever, Lady" before leaping away and leaving the rest of the demons for her to deal with.
Overview
Personality and attributes
In appearance, Lady was an attractive female human with dark, chin-length hair on both sides of her face and a fringe that reached her eyebrows. Her body was noted to hold many scars with the most prominent being the one across her nose. She came to be known as the Armed Hunter for Hire (高威力の重火器を操るデビルハンター Kōiryoku no Jūkaki wo ayatsuru Debiru Hantā?) and as the The Walking Arsenal (美しき銃武装 Utsukushiki Jūbusō?, lit. "The heavily armed beauty").
She was a no-nonsense type of woman, who will do anything to achieve her goals, which was nearly a complete opposite to the immature, boastful Dante.
Powers and abilities
Lady was born a normal human being with no supernatural powers. However, she came to be highly skilled in acrobatics and armed close quarters combat. She came to train in order to become a Devil Hunter where she specialised in hunting demons.
She carried an arsenal of weapons, including Handguns and a set of twin Machineguns.
Typically, she travelled on an extremely powerful motorbike, and used Kalina Ann's attached grappling hook to scale buildings.
