The Tony Redgrave theory

[Devil Kid]

well i kinda forgot what his name meant.was he some resident evil guy or was he gonna be the character to RE4?so if you guys would like to refresh my memory about him.please do.

I think that was the name for Dante in the DMC novel, used to cover up his real name...

 

[Tony_Redgrave]

Who called?
My name, comes fron the Devil May Cry novel as stated above. Dante used that name to escape the Sparda legacy when he was young.
Also in Ebony you can see the letters "For Tony Redgrave By .45 Art Warks"
Probably as a memento or something since the story wasn't able to blend with the games^_^

well yea as tony_redgrave stated in the novel and manga it is dantes "name". pretty cool lol

 

[Trish67]

yes Tony Redgrave is Dante's Alias from the DMC novel

 

[Zeke Axel]

Well actually, he was supposed to be called Tony Redgrave in the Original DMC.
But later they decided to change the name to Dante.
But the name still remains on Ebony for that reason.

And in the novel it's more of an easter egg.

they were originally going to use him as a character in a resident evil game, as devil kid was pondering, but figured this was the better choice. and ohh boy was it a better choice!

Is there any explanation to why the same inscription (For TONY REDGRAVE/ By .45 ART WARKS) is on Luce & Ombra ?

It is just for reference purposes as far as we know now, but future knowledge could make things different. Anyway the thread is locked as it's really old.
