Compassionate character making case for staff (6)

I have ?U?A?E and i think the answer is humane. Whole thing means compassionate and man means staff, don't quite see where the hue comes in apart from 'casing' man.

Many thanks, I'd like an explanation please, if it is as above, I think it's a weak clue.

HUE is "character" and it "makes a case for" (surrounds) MAN (meaning "to staff")

character = hue.
HUE is "character" and it "makes a case for" (surrounds) MAN (meaning "to staff")
I thought hue could be cast= case
Staff= Man = Humane??

Many thanks. Well Ive learnt something today, never too old! I always thought of hue as a shade of colour, but I suppose yes that ties in with character.
