**Captain Dexter Grif**, is a simulation trooper, member of Red Team, and the Reds and Blues. In the web-series *Red vs. Blue*, he is voiced by Geoff Ramsey, co-founder of Rooster Teeth.

He serves as a secondary protagonist in *A Soldier's Debt* and *Shattered Eclipse*.

## Appearance

### Physical Appearance

Out of his entire team, Grif is described as the least appealing. He is a man in his mid-twenties with fair skin, brown hair and brown eyes, the latter of is described as rather nice by his friends. He also has a full beard purely by his choice.

#### Weight

Throughout both *Red vs. Blue* and the *RvBvRWBY* series, Grif has been described by his peers and enemies as being overweight, fat, and borderline obese. In *A Soldier's Debt*, it is revealled that he was overweight during the events of *Retribution* and and continued toe be until 2555 when he slowly became fit. However Grif could never be seen overweight due to his armor and bodysuit.

### Armor

Like the rest of the Reds and Blues, and other characters affiliated with the UNSC, Grif wears a suit of armor that grants him protection, deflection of bullets (to a degree), and shields. His armor color is orange, but is often mistaken to be yellow, which angers him.

#### Main Timeline

##### Retribution

Grif wears a simple suit of armor given to him by Project Freelancer. The armor was link to a black body suit that allowed free movement and a HUD.

##### Insurgence

By 2555, Grif was wearing new armor that appeared to be more bulkier in appearance. The visor was also more reddish-orange in color.

#### Remnant Timeline

##### A Soldier's Debt

In preparation for their mission to Remnant, Grif and the rest of the Reds and Blues donned new armor. This new armor was based off of the armor they wore in *Retribution*. Each plate was made of a plastoid material that was as tuff as the original metal used in their armors. The color was an amber orange with a stripe of cobalt blue on the chest plate in honor of Epsilon. Both shoulderplates also held the symbols for Red Team, and the Reds and Blues.

## Personality

Grif is the cynical loud-mouth of the Reds, being self-centered, immature, occasionally stupid, acerbic, and lazy. With respect to personality, Grif is fairly brash and has a flair for the melodramatic. He is quick to make silly theories or insults, even toward people who could clearly kill him without hesitation. Grif is also cowardly, easily scared and would rather run away from a battle than deal with it. Although he admits to being lazy, when his sister arrived in Blood Gulch, he said he would try to maintain his status as a good-for-nothing slacker, but nothing would stop him from beating her up and sending her back home.
