Description
Edit
Agni is the red sword with power to control fire, while Rudra is the blue sword with power to control wind.[1][2] The headless demons that wield them also match this color scheme.
Story
Edit
Dante comes across the brothers in the Firestorm Chamber. They are at first cordial to Dante, discussing how to be "gracious hosts", but when he demands to be let through their gate, they attack. After Dante defeats them, they ask to be taken with him as Devil Arms, and Dante agrees on the condition that they remain quiet...which they repeatedly fail to uphold, for which they are punished.
Strategy
Edit
They are adept at fighting together, though they can be tricked into hurting each other. However, once one host is defeated, the other will go for the fallen sword, allowing him to become more powerful.
Background
Edit
In Hinduism, Agni is the god of fire and Rudra is the god of the storm, thought to be an early form of Shiva. Agni is also thought to be the accepter of sacrifices and Rudra is also thought to be a god of diseases.
