In the original DPC plot, both Dante and Jayce dealed with Slitherbrae (or sm close to it) at a young age. Jayce had problems with his serpent family and made a deal with Slitherbrae and made him take control and oof them (Jayce regretted.it). Jayce was also really grumpy and scary, and old lol. (Rose was old too) Dante got bitten, and had a fear of snakes after wards. Alto was going to be an orphan and was related to a goddess. Then the bite from Slitherbrae turned Dante into a big monster. They got rid of it but it made Slitherbrae come out and gather his goons. That also means Jayce (from deal), and he had to kill Rose. But Jayce isn't that bad and sent his zodiac to look after DPC (Snape patronus ahh). And later, a big battle, Jayce betrays SB and comes back to normal, Rose got revived from another villain that realizes what they did was wrong. And yah... you kinda see why I scrapped this.
