Ifrit

From Devil May Cry Wiki

"My name is Ifrit. Fool who awakens me shall pay dearly with fires of hell."
― Ifrit, Devil May Cry

The Ifrit is a living Devil Arm, the Flame Gauntlets with hellfire hotter than a volcano[1], appearing in Devil May Cry. It can only be wielded by one who can conquer it, but it is able to grant its wielder increased power.[2]

Ifrit the Fire Devil

Dante finds Ifrit on an altar in the Garden, and it speaks to Dante of its anger at being awakened.[3] It flies through the air and shackles his arms, but he subdues it.

After that point, Dante can channel Ifrit's power, enhancing his attacks with fire and allowing him to take the form of a horned, spiked demon.
