I'm curious as to where the name Redgrave comes from. Is that an actual real-world name? Is it another language for something? Or is it something else? Just curious.

The emblem certainly gives away what he's he's about. Not against it, although I assume that it's impossible to tell that the "blood" is actually blood, beyond the fact that it's red and drop-shaped.

If this guy is supposed to be a vampire, then I would have thought a cape or a cloak of some sort for clothing... but the subtle route is good too.

A martial arts instructor as a parent seems like a strange family relation for someone who's based on dudes who lived in castles and came out at night to bite people in the neck...makes sense from the hand-to-hand combat standpoint, at least.

Enthusiastic, intelligent, polite, and... sadistic? That last one seems a bit out of left field, but again, vampire. So I guess it can work? Personally I'd have it to where it's a side of himself he either isn't fully aware of that comes out when he's REALLY getting into the action, or something he tries his best to keep hidden behind the nice guy persona.

Those weapons... is it wrong that I'm envisioning the Deadric gauntlets and greatest from Skye in here? Because that's what I'm getting here, and it's amazing.

Now, last part is the Semblance. The Semblance itself is cool, but... there's an issue. The purpose of the Semblance is to leech headroom physical contact/attacks. Grimm... do not have Aura. And the purpose of a Hunter is first and foremost, to fight Grimm, not other Hunters. So in a standard mission scenario, the Semblance is useless, unless he intends to throw one of his comrades under the bus in order to replenish himself. Have you considered this? I did, Pyrrha's Semblance do not have much use against Grimm too, so I went ahead with it. As for the weapon design, think daedric armor of Elder Scroll series + DMC3 Beowulf's greaves + DMC4 Gilgamesh's gauntlet.
