If we're using Dante's version of Hell/Limbo, then Limbo was reserved for virtuous pagans. This usually meant people who were generally good but had no knowledge of Christianity and therefore, can't go to Heaven but aren't condemned to Hell.

In short, according to Dante, people who would be in Limbo are Virgil, Homer, Socrates, Aristotle, etc. All of these people lived before the time of Christ and therefore, had no knowledge of Christianity, etc.

In traditional Christian beliefs, Limbo is a place for those who were not baptized and therefore cannot enter heaven but are not guilty of any personal sin deserving of punishment. This concept is not universally accepted among Christian denominations.

What is limbo?

Limbo is supposedly a place of the in-between. its not heaven nor hell, apparently if you are injured and bleeding badly or have a fast paced, life threatening disease and you go to limbo, the blood will stop flowing or the disease will stop progressing. So practically when you are in Limbo, you are an immortal unless the gates of heaven or hell draw you in from either side of the Limbo Plane. It's also a dance played by taking turns crossing under a horizontal bar or stick.
