Baron Dante is a frog-like wizard and the main villain of Croc: Legend of the Gobbos and Croc 2. He seeks to capture the Gobbos and kill Croc to conquer the Gobbos' island. He has small, devil-like henchmen named Dantinis, which aid him on his quest to rule the island as well. He has many of the similarities of Bowser.

Video game appearances
Croc: Legend of the Gobbos
In the original Croc game, Dante is first seen in the intro when he and his henchmen, the Dantinis, invade the Gobbos' island and captures them, including the Gobbo King. He is then seen in all of the introductions every boss fight in which he transforms innocent, little animals into fighting machines to prevent Croc from getting to his island. However, every single one of them has failed to do so, and Dante was forced to fight Croc himself, three times as a matter of fact. After his defeat in round three, the evil Dante screamed a death cry, spun around, and disappeared just like that, leaving Croc to rescue the Gobbo King. However, once Croc recovers the eight hidden jigsaw pieces scattered across the islands, and reveals the secret fifth island, Dante is revived as a crystaline monster that Croc must fight again. Upon defeat, he shatters into many crystal fragments, and Croc keeps one to prevent his revival (this may be resonsible for his missing eye in Croc 2).
Croc 2
In the introduction of Croc 2, we see a Gobbo scientist stumble onto a ritual held by the Dantinis that has somehow resurrected the evil Baron. Again he faces his nemesis, Croc, but again fails.
Theme music
The theme song of Baron Dante consists mainly of an organ and is heard in the intro when he invades Gobbo Island, when he fights Croc in round two, and when Croc fights him once more as the Crystal Baron on the secret island.
