Gene

Biography
He is the older brother of Dante. He is a Shadow Knight, and is responsible for Dante being forgotten by their parents and their entire village. He first appeared in "Don't Drown!" when he was talking to Vylad about Phoenix Drop. In "The Lord's Journal," he and Sasha knocked Aphmau out while she was reading the old lord's diary. He has appeared a bit throughout the the first season, mainly in talking to Sasha in the  Nether.

He had become the head guard of his village, Boboros, but through trickery and deceit, though still he loved his brother. Dante respected and looked up to him, even though he knew how Gene got his position. Around when Dante was 12 years old, Gene fell in love with the daughter of his Lord. A little before this, he discovered that he has the power to alter anyone's memories. He confessed his love to the girl, but she didn't return his feelings. He planned to break into her room at night, and alter her memories so that she loved him. It almost worked, but Dante told the guards of Gene's plan, and Gene was sentenced to execution. He found out his brother told on him when he was sentenced, and sworn revenge. After that, he returned as a Shadow Knight, and erased everyone's memories, even their parents'. When he came to Dante, he said, "I'm going to you leave you to rot. No one here is going to remember you. Not even our mother or father. So now, you're wander this world alone. Someone needs to remember," and left his brother by himself.

When Zenix returned to the Nether, Gene released all the prisoners, but with the active Nether Portal he loses the betrayer who killed his own Shadow Knights, Vylad.

Gene later informed the Shadow King about Laurance and Zenix's rebellion weakening in Season 3 and, when Aphmau, Katelyn and Garroth were in the Nether, attacked Laurance under Shad's order while he went off after Aphmau. After Zenix appeared and saved Laurance, he retreated from Laurance's fort.

Later in Episode 7, he was summoned to Shad's chamber about the death of the Heart of Darkness and was ordered that Zane must be killed for stealing the relic and that it could fall in Aphmau's hand while gathering all of the relics to defeat Shad.
