- "Didn't your daddy ever teach you how to wield a sword?" ― Trish, Devil May Cry
Trish is a mysterious woman who looks strangely like Dante's mother. She comes to Devil May Cry one night to meet Dante. There she electrocutes him, but with his demon powers he fights back. Trish is defeated, but tells Dante that she needs his help. She takes him to Mallet Island, where Mundus is planning to open the gate to the Underworld to cross over to the Human World. It is eventually revealed that Trish was actually created by Mundus as a lure to kill Dante at the island. At the end of Devil May Cry, Trish sympathizes with Dante after having tried to kill him during the battle with Nightmare. After being held hostage by Mundus, the demon king then tries to kill Dante by using a highly powerful beam from his third eye. However, Trish sacrifices herself by pushing Dante out of the beam's range and seems to be killed. Dante leaves her with the Sparda as a headstone. Later cornered by a greatly mutated Mundus, Dante hears his mother's voice, and Trish bursts through the wall in rays of energy to aid him. She lends him her power and Mundus is defeated. It is implied that she works with Dante at the newly-renamed Devil Never Cry.
In the anime, Trish is a freelance devil hunter, having left Devil May Cry to do her own work for awhile. She comes to visit Dante from time to time, leading her first appearance in the show to a fight with Lady when the human is hired to kill her. As it turns out, Lady's client was a demon himself and wanted to get rid of Trish because she was hired to kill him. Trish and Lady end up getting along and placing Dante into further debt by buying expensive clothing. Later in the show Trish does some investigative work from time to time to help Dante on his jobs. During the final fight with Abigal she and Lady coordinate attacks against lowly demons until Dante revives. Dante extends to her an open invitation to return to Devil May Cry whenever she wants near the end of Episode 4, which she declines at first, but judging by Devil May Cry 4, she eventually accepted.
In Devil May Cry 4 Trish poses as Gloria, the only female Executive of the Holy Knights, in order to spy on the Order of the Sword. She was able to quickly ascend the ranks by bringing the Sparda with her and giving it to Sanctus. Because of her looks and this suspiciously quick promotion, many members of the Order spread negative rumors about her; however, they also recognize her acrobatic and combat skills. Gloria's true identity as Trish is revealed after Nero fights Dante in Mission 10, and she later helps Dante by evacuating the town while he fights the Savior.
After Devil May Cry, Trish wields the twin pistols Luce & Ombra and the Sparda.

[edit] Combat
Though the player is never required to fight against Trish or Gloria, she is shown to have a combat style that relies heavily upon melee attacks. In Devil May Cry, she first fights Dante with a combination of hand-to-hand and the element of electricity. She also seems to be able to use this electricity to teleport from location to location. After the first game, she intersperses this style of fighting with usage of the Sparda and Luce & Ombra. Because she has already given the Sparda to Sanctus by the beginning of Devil May Cry 4, she only carries Luce & Ombra during this game. Her style of combat is unclear, as she is never shown fighting. However, in her disguise as Gloria, she wields two small blades, each of which folds in on itself. She appears to keep them tucked in the back of her thigh-high boots when they are not in use. Trish seems to favor a melee style here as well. The appearance of her character in Devil May Cry 2 is not story-driven, but rather an unlockable playable character for both Dante and Lucia's discs. In this game, it looks as if Trish has maintained her fighting style from the end of the first game. However, she can now utilize a Devil Trigger, which changes her avatar to have sunglasses and gives her the ability to fly.
