1995 RE1 – GAME MANUAL Future STARS member Chris Redfield joins the U.S Air Force. WESKER’S REPORT 2: JULY 31ST REUC – WESKER’S REPORT EXTRACT ON “HER” Wesker returns to the Spencer Estate for the first time in four years. Birkin still heads the G-Virus project. The virus continues to mutate its host, creating a creature that resurrects from the dead. Lord Spencer is also spending less and less time at the facility and Wesker wonders what he has inn store for Umbrella. A new head researcher named John Howe arrives at the labs. The Lisa Trevor experiment is beginning to get violent and she rips the heads off careless researchers and wears them on her hunched back, it was because of this that her termination was decided upon. With the study of the G-Virus on track, she no longer holds any worth as a valuable specimen. After the termination of her vital signs is confirmed, her body is taken away to some unknown location at the instruction of the Lab Manager. 1996 RE – ARCHIVES REUC – S.T.A.R.S NOTES The Raccoon City branch of the Special Tactics and Rescue Squad {S.T.A.R.S} is founded by Albert Wesker. He is also Commander of the team. This elite group is designed to combat terrorism, organised crime and emergencies too difficult for the regular police officers to handle. Its members include a hand-picked group of specialists, the best of the best. The team’s funding is provided by grants from private corporations and most notably, Umbrella. REUC – RICHARD AIKEN’S LETTER Richard Aiken joins STARS and writes a letter to someone he is close to called Brigidette, who is concerned about him taking up such a dangerous line of work. He cites his main reason for joining is the fact he never got over the death of his baby sister, who was killed right in front of him by a criminal whilst he was a kid. He needs to protect people in order to quell the feeling that he should have died in her place. RE - ARCHIVES Future Umbrella Special Forces member Hunk undergoes his training at Rockfort Island. REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: APRIL Chief Irons receives $2,200 from Umbrella for services rendered. REOUT2 – EXPERIMENT PARTICIPANTS: MAY 14TH A number of Umbrella employees submit themselves for experiments with the T-Virus in Raccoon City’s underground labs. Yoko Suzuki is one of them. REDA – EXPERIMENT ALPHA LOG: AUGUST 26TH A condemned criminal code-named Alpha is transferred to an Umbrella waste disposal facility in the Atlantic to be used as a special test subject. REOUT2 – DAILY RACCOON: AUGUST 30TH A failed breakout takes place at the Douglas Prison. Outdated security and a poor infrastructure are to blame for the 4th such incident this year. The chief suspects are Kyle Brendan {34} and Derek Azula {31} are said to be the instigators of the plot. Azula’s lawyers refuse to comment. REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: SEPTEMBER Chief Irons receives a further $5000 in bribe money from Umbrella. REDA – EXPERIMENT ALPHA LOG: SEPTEMBER 26TH Subject ‘Alpha’ has been at the Umbrella facility for exactly one month. Today the experiment on him begins. Subject doesn’t seem aware of what is going to happen to him and appears to be very frightened. A metal rod is hammered into the subject’s frontal lobe in order to alleviate some of the pain. This is done purely for humanitarian reasons. REDA – EXPERIMENT ALPHA LOG: SEPTEMBER 29TH Day 4 of Alpha experiment. Subject’s eyeballs removed in order to observe reactions to external stimulation. REDA – EXPERIMENT ALPHA LOG: OCTOBER 9TH Day 14 of Alpha experiment. Muscle booster administered to subject. Confirmation of unusual development of muscles. Subject gained drastic amount of weight before the treatment. In the future consider using hampering items. RE0UT2 – COMET NEWS: OCTOBER 31ST Staff reporter Alyssa Ashcroft reports that the body of an unidentified male has been found in the Aimes River in the northwest Arklay Mountains. At least half a year has passed since the man died so the body has proved impossible to identify. However, powerful steroids, along with other drugs, were found in the body and police suspect foul play. The river has often been used as a dumping ground by local pharmaceutical companies and links to illegal activities in connection to that are not ruled out. REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: NOVEMBER Umbrella pays Irons $1500. REDA – EXPERIMENT ALPHA LOG: NOVEMBER 1ST Day 36 of Alpha experiment. Removal of eyeballs has resulted in subject acquiring an enhanced sense of hearing. It recognises precisely where a sound originates and its distance from that sound. REDA – EXPERIMENT ALPHA LOG: NOVEMBER 6TH Day 41 of Alpha experiment. The experiment has now been suspended as subject has escaped. Even without its vision, the subject is still extremely dangerous. Extreme care not to make noise should be taken when trying to capture it. REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: DECEMBER Chief Irons gets a massive $8000 from Umbrella this month for protecting their interests. 1997 RE - ARCHIVES Barry Burton leaves SWAT and joins the Raccoon STARS, recruiting his close friend Chris Redfield at the same time, who has become a drifter after being kicked out of the air force. REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: FEBRUARY Irons is paid $1800 this month. REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: MARCH Irons is paid $4000 this month. REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: APRIL Irons is paid $10000 this month. RE0 – TREATMENT PLANT MANAGER’S DIARY: MAY 10TH The manager is livid that regular industrial waste is being pumped into his plant when it should be Umbrella’s waste only. He cannot deal with this level of material. Plus they are receiving contaminated materials that they cannot process. REDA – OPERATOR’S NOTEBOOK: MAY 16TH An operator is transferred to the Dead Factory in Raccoon City where future Spencer Rain hijacker Morpheus Duvall is in charge as head of R and D. REDA – OPERATOR’S NOTEBOOK: JUNE 16TH At the Dead Factory, a minor accident occurs due to the sloppy supervision. The operator promises that if he is going to die, it will be as a human. REDA – OPERATOR’S NOTEBOOK: JUNE 24TH The operator is at odds with Morpheus Duvall, the supervisor of the Dead Factory. He pays more attention to worker health management and BOWS supervision than anyone else. He obviously doesn’t think this facility belongs to Umbrella and not him. The operator wants to leave but knows he can’t. RE0 – GAME: JULY Marine Lieutenant Billy Coen is on a mission with his troops in Africa. After acting out on unreliable intelligence his squad end up massacring the occupants of an innocent African village. After going against orders and trying to stop the killings, he is framed for their murder and convicted. RE0 – TREATMENT PLANT MANAGER’S DIARY: JULY 24TH The water treatment plant underneath Raccoon Forest is closed down suddenly. The manager is not surprised and does not care as long as he gets out of there. REUC – MEMO ABOUT BILLY’S PAST Jeff Hendricks of ‘War’s Power’ magazine writes an article about a possible cover-up of a botched US Special Forces mission in Africa. A non profit organisation has disclosed information that the alleged execution of 23 soldiers was actually the slaughter of 23 innocent local inhabitants. The US military has retracted its initial statements about the operation, and the world is in uproar over its involvement in the affair. An investigative committee has been quickly assembled to look into the incident, and the results of the enquiry are disturbing. The official line is that due to the extreme conditions encountered, one of the marines panicked and unintentionally killed the people. Hendricks adds that a cover-up is in progress and the marine, if he even exists, has been made a scapegoat. Dunell Marine Base, situated in the American heartland, continues to deny the media access to the facility. REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: AUGUST Chief Irons is paid a further $8000 this month. REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: SEPTEMBER Irons is paid $12000 this month from Umbrella. REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: NOVEMBER Irons is paid $10000. REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: DECEMBER Irons is paid $10000. 1998 REUC – T.A.L.O.S PROJECT PROPOSAL REUC – T.A.L.O.S NOTES With the Arklay Lab close to the success of a T-002 Tyrant, progress towards marketable BOW is moving along nicely however, in order to satisfy the varying needs of Umbrella’s clients’ research and development into new BOW must be increased. The main problem the researchers have found to date is the lack of control in T-Virus based weaponry with sudden cellular mutations being the main problem. The European 6th Lab has had some success in using organic parasites to achieve more control, an example of this is the Nemesis project, which is able to carry firearms and be programmed with distinct orders. However, Arklay labs believe they can achieve a more consistent result by using electronic chip connections to brain cells. They also toy with the idea of arming their future tyrants thanks to these electronic chips which would help it protect its natural abilities while maximising its manoeuvres in field situations. The potential for these enhancements is fast becoming a reality and when complete, could make the tyrant the ultimate, all in one combat package. The proposal then is the TALOS; Tyrant Armoured Lethal Organic System. This bio weapon will use a standard tyrant as a base, while adding remote computer control capabilities via a chip implanted in the brain. Its cardiovascular system is artificially improved to give it mobility unthinkable in a natural organism. It is planned that the body will be armoured in a special metallic alloy that will not only help it defend itself from missiles and other projectile fire, but it will also restrain runaway T-Virus mutation. Researchers will also plan to equip the finished product with weaponry to allow it to respond to distant targets. The name comes from a bronze giant from Greek mythology. A very early prototype will be developed at Arklay over the course of the year but due to unforeseen circumstances development will be shifted to Umbrella’s base in southern Russia. REOUT2 – ADMINISTRATOR’S DIARY 1/2: JANUARY – MARCH Albert Lester, the ex-administrator at the hospital in Raccoon Forest, returns to the city after five years of absence. He is still haunted by the death of his wife Dorothy. He visits the old hospital, now shut down for five years. All evidence of the Umbrella experiment is gone. He comes across a curious plant growing in the basement and its toxins make him hallucinate. He begins to believe that the plant is the reincarnation of his dead wife, Dorothy Lester. He begins to feed her, hunting birds, dogs and other animals in the region. The plant grows rapidly in size and he decides to stay with her, forever. As the plant continues to grow, he begins to hunt humans with an axe. He waits by a cabin and leads hikers and passers-by to the hospital. REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: JANUARY Chief Irons paid $5000. REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: FEBRUARY Chief Irons paid $2800 REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: MARCH Chief Irons paid $3300. RE3 – MERCENARY’S DIARY: MARCH 1-10 A falsely accused soldier on death-row somewhere abroad is tortured and forced to give a false confession but has a miracle on the day of his execution when he is bought by Umbrella who put him on an intensive six month training programme in order to join their specialised UBCS unit. RE2 – GAME: MID MARCH Ada Wong’s boyfriend John mysteriously disappears. He had been working at Umbrella’s branch office in Chicago. REOUT2 – BOTONIST’S NOTEBOOK: MARCH 15TH Two botanists hiking through Raccoon Forest discover an abandoned cabin. Inside they find strange tropical flowers and strong vines. The hiker is convinced he has discovered a new species. REOUT2 – BOTONIST’S NOTEBOOK: MARCH 18th The botanist and his colleague, Rick, decided to set up camp in the cabin so that they could begin some research and take samples. He notes that it is imperative the site remains a secret. REOUT2 – BOTONIST’S NOTEBOOK: MARCH 19th The botanist notes that it appears as if the plants and vines have a will of their own and that they move as if controlled by intelligence. They have blocked up the only door to the cabin, blocking their escape. REOUT2 – BOTONIST’S NOTEBOOK: MARCH 20TH The two men cannot escape the cabin, yet they have a week’s worth of food left and a satellite phone as a last resort. They decide to just wait for now. However, Rick swears he can sense a human presence besides theirs in the cabin. The botanist thinks he is just hallucinating. He has also managed to drop and break his phone. He just wants out now. Searching around, they find a room that appears to be a pharmacy. There is a tank full of chemicals where the vines around it have begun to wilt and decay. The botanist injects the substance into a knob-like protrusion emanating from the vine on the wall and it kills it, allowing them to escape. However, they encounter a strange man wielding an axe, it is Albert, the hospital’s former administrator. He kills both of them. REOUT2 – DAILY RACCOON: APRIL 2ND Recent tests of the municipal water system and local streams in and around Raccoon City have revealed shockingly high levels of dangerous toxins. It is a significant increase in level of contamination has prompted many to demand a thorough investigation into local environmental protection laws. RE2 – SECRETARY’S DIARY A: APRIL 6TH Raccoon Police Chief Brian Irons’ secretary accidentally moves one of the statues on the second floor of the RPD building. When Irons finds out he is furious and gives orders never to touch the statues again. RE2 – SECRETARY’S DIARY A: APRIL 7TH The secretary learns that Irons art collection is full of rare pieces, literally worth hundreds of thousands of dollars and wonders where he gets the money to pay for them.

REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: MAY Umbrella continues to buy Irons’ services with another $2,500. REMAKE – KEEPER’S DIARY: MAY 9TH The keeper at the Spencer Mansion plays poker with Scott and Alias from security and Steve from research. Steve was the winner, but the keeper suspected he was cheating. REMAKE – KEEPER’S DIARY: MAY 10TH The keeper is assigned to take care of a new creature. He remarks how it looks like a skinned gorilla and that feeding instructions were to give it live animals. He throws in a pig, and the creature seems to play with it…tearing off its legs and pulling out the guts before it actually starts to eat it. RE2 – SECRETARY’S DIARY A: MAY 10TH Chief Irons arrives with a new piece of art; a disturbing painting depicting a nude person being hanged. The secretary is appalled by it and disgusted to see Irons constantly leering at it in delight. RE0 – GAME: MAY 11TH In one of his first actions in his revenge against Umbrella, James Marcus infiltrates the Spencer mansion and scatters the T-virus, disguising it to look like an accident by the careless researchers. REMAKE – KEEPER’S DIARY: 05.00AM The keeper cannot sleep when Scott suddenly bursts into his room wearing a biohazard protection suit. He says there has been an accident in the basement lab and tells the keeper to put a suit on as well.

REMAKE: KEEPER’S DIARY: MAY 12TH The keeper has been wearing the biohazard suit for a day now. His skin is grimy and feels itchy all over. He notes how the dogs have been looking at him funny all day and decides to screw them and not give them any food today. This makes him feel better. RECVX – PRISONER’S DIARY: MAY 13th A new prisoner is transferred to the prison on Rockfort Island. He notes how the room stinks of death and believes his location to be far south of the equator. The prisoner in the bunk below him is Robert Dorson, former attendant to base owner Alfred Ashford. REMAKE – KEEPER’S DIARY The keeper at the Arklay lab visits the infirmary complaining of a swollen and itchy back. The doctor bandages him up and tells him he doesn’t need to wear the suit anymore. He still doesn’t feel any better however and decides all he wants to do is sleep. REMAKE – KEEPER’S DIARY: MAY 14TH The keeper finds another big blister on his foot and ends up dragging it all the way to the dogs’ pens. They have been quiet all morning. He realises that some of them have escaped, and wonders if this is their revenge on him for not feeding them for three days. If any of the higher-ups find out, he will be in big trouble. RE3 – MANAGER’S DIARY The disposal system at the Dead Factory is completed but is not 100% stable yet due to complications with the gas used to destroy the cells of the guinea pigs. REMAKE – KEEPER’S DIARY: MAY 15TH RE1 – KEEPER’S DIARY The keeper has a day off and decides to go and visit his girlfriend Nancy. But he is stopped from leaving the estate’s grounds by armed guards. He isn’t even permitted to make a phone call. REMAKE – PLANT 42 REPORT The plant in point 42 of the Spencer mansion is growing at an incredible rate. Researchers believe the chemicals in the water of the flooded Aqua Ring could be responsible. REMAKE – KEEPER’S DIARY A researcher tries to escape the Spencer facility and flee into the forest. He is shot to death by armed guards to prevent any possibility of the virus leaking out of the estate. REMAKE - MAY 16TH The keeper hears the rumours of what happened to the researcher the previous night. He complains that his body feels hot and itchy and that he is sweating all the time now. He scratched the swelling on his arm and a piece of rotten flesh dropped off. He worries what is happening to him. RECVX – PRISONER’S DIARY Robert Dorson tells the new prisoner at Rockfort that he used to be Alfred Ashford’s private attendant until he was imprisoned for a tiny little mistake. RE1 – SCRAPBOOK: MAY 17TH 22:00PM A 20-year old woman’s body is found by a passer-by on the left bank of the Marble River in the Cider district of Raccoon City. According to the police report, it appears to be a grizzly or wolf attack due to the teeth marks along her mutilated arms and left foot. Since she wore a hiking boot on her other foot, it is determined that she was attacked and then fell into the river. Police are hurrying to identify her. REMAKE – KEEPER’S DIARY: MAY 19TH The T-Virus reaches advanced levels of infection in the Keeper. He writes barely legible scribbles that his fever has gone but he feels itchy.

By this time, the plant has killed many staff members. REMAKE – ORGANIC CHEMISTRY LAB EXPERIMENT The surviving researchers try to find a way to fight back against plant 42 using a mixture of different chemicals. RECVX – PRISONER’S DIARY: MAY 27TH The prisoner is now the only one left in the barracks on Rockfort. He knows he will be next to go to the guillotine building. This is his last diary entry. REOUT2 – “MONEY SCOOP”: JUNE 1ST Journalist Alyssa Ashcroft writes an article about a recent inquiry into the finances of 67-year old Elliot Martin, chairman of the local zoo’s board of directors. The inquiry has revealed shocking news. The trade of rare orchid specimens is prohibited under the Washington Treaty. But Martin has repeatedly defied this ruling, according to an anonymous tip from within the zoo. If this is true, many questions will arise regarding the funds derived from these sales. Is the new flora exhibit truly a place for children to dream and learn, or an illegal money-making scheme? REMAKE – RESEARCHER’S WILL: JUNE 3RD Researcher Martin Crackhorn writes a farewell letter to his lover Alma whilst he can hear the zombies moaning and banging on the door of his study. He is infected and can feel himself turning. He decides to end his own life before he becomes a zombie. RE3 – MANAGER’S DIARY: JUNE 7TH At the Dead Factory, the amount of guinea pigs coming in for disposal is increasing. The system isn’t running smoothly but the laboratory staff is not interested in the manager’s opinions. REMAKE – RESEARCHER’S LETTER: JUNE 8TH John Howe writes a letter to his girlfriend Ada Wong. He is infected with the T-Virus but as far as he knows she isn’t. He wants her to take material from the Arklay Labs, destroy it and expose Umbrella to the press. He also asks her to kill him if she finds him as a zombie. RE2 – SECRETARY’S DIARY B The secretary is cleaning up Chief Iron’s room when he bursts in with a furious look on his face. She thinks Irons was going to hurt her. He throws her out and locks himself inside. REOUT2 – RACCOON TODAY: JUNE 10TH Local newspaper Raccoon Today runs a story about an illegal art ring. Defunct local art museum “Rams”, which closed last February, has allegedly sold some 200 stuffed wildlife specimens on the auction block. Sculptures, paintings and other pieces have been accounted for and have been sold to private collectors and legitimate museums, but no information concerning the stuffed specimens has emerged. The police are demanding the auctioneer relinquish an inventory list confirming their whereabouts as such specimens are banned from sale by auction and there are rumours some specimens are endangered species. RE2 – SECRETARY’S DIARY B Irons is still locked up in his office and rumours are starting to spread around the RPD about his increasingly bizarre behaviour. RE2 – SECRETARY’S DIARY B: JUNE 15TH Irons’ secretary discovers his dirty secret and now realises his life is in danger. This is her last diary entry. RE1 – SCRAPBOOK: JUNE 16TH Hikers and joggers are claiming to have seen monsters in the Arklay Mountains. They are reportedly the same size as large dogs and usually run in a pack as wolves do. They are surprisingly fierce and hard to hurt although reports indicate they won’t attack unless woke up and provoked. People are advised to keep out of the Arklay Mountains unless they are looking for a dangerous thrill. RE1 – UNOFFICIAL EVENTS: JUNE 20-30TH Rebecca Chambers joins the STARS Bravo Team REMAKE – SUICIDE NOTE: JUNE 22ND Two researchers at the Arklay labs are still alive and holed up inside the Guardhouse.

RE2 – SEWER MANAGER’S DIARY: JUNE 28TH The sewer manager meets up with a colleague called Don Weller and they chat after work. Don is sick. He is sweating like a horse and keeps scratching his body. REUC – RECLAMATION PROJECT NOTES: JULY Umbrella decide to start an operation into reclaim the old Umbrella Training Facility that had closed down in 1978 and bring it back into operation. Supplies and human resources are to be divided into two batches. William Birkin and Albert Wesker have been put in charge of this project. RE2 – SEWER MANAGER’S DIARY: JULY 7TH The manager notes that Chief Irons has been visiting the labs quite regularly lately. He is looking very grim and the manager has sympathy for him, putting his moods down to Dr Birkin’s impossible requests. RE1 – SCRAPBOOK: JULY 9TH The Special Tactics and Rescue Squad {STARS} led by Albert Wesker are officially assigned to the investigation of missing people in the Arklay Mountains. The RPD block the road leading to the foothills in the Arklay Mountains due to the continuing reports of missing people. The RPD with the help of the STARS teams are to conduct a search for the missing people, although they expect difficultly due to the huge expanse of the region. There are still frequent reports of sightings of grotesque monsters in the area. REMAKE – FAX: JULY 10-20TH The Sanitation Division receive a fax from Umbrella’s Raccoon Disaster Contingency Committee reporting on the damage done buy the T-Virus at the Arklay Labs. It indicates more than half the researchers are now dead and that the BOW is roaming freely about the compound. It also recommends taking action against the police and STARS now that they have been assigned to the case. RE0 – PASSENGER’S DIARY: JULY 14TH William Birkin begins the reclamation project investigation into the old abandoned Umbrella Training Facility in Raccoon Forest as Umbrella is toying with the idea of possibly re-opening the facilities. There are to be two teams, with the passenger in the initial one, assigned to start checking out what is left of the abandoned experiment. RE0 – PASSENGER’S DIARY: JULY 16TH Because of the training facility investigation, test production on B.O.W type 139 is suspended. RE3 – MANAGER’S DIARY At the Dead Factory in Raccoon City, the manager complains that there are too many bodies to dispose of and that the quality of the liquid medicine preventing possible infection is not good enough. RE0 – PASSENGER’S DIARY: JULY 19TH The passenger is growing more anxious as the day is approaching that they will arrive at the training facility. The Raccoon City TV stations and newspapers are full of reports of bizarre murders in the suburbs. The passenger wonders if it could be the virus, but dismisses that thought immediately. RE0 – FIRST INVETSIGATION UNIT NOTES: JULY 20TH The first Umbrella investigation team have arrived on site and set about restoring the power and installing some CCTV. The team are searching the facilities and report that a lot of chemicals are still intact and that the storage tanks are still full. They also note that the chemicals are scattered all over the facility due to simple plain miss-management and that when they re-open the complex, a proper system must be put in place for storing them. RE2 – SEWER MANAGER’S DIARY: JULY 21ST The sewer manager enjoys a few rare drinks, fed up with the stress of how he earns his living working in the sewers. RE0 – INVESIGATOR’S REPORT In the bowels of the training facility, the team uncovers evidence of just how ruthless Marcus was and his experiments using as many as 20 company employees as test subjects. The investigator wonders that with Umbrella now rapidly rising to one of the leading corporations in the world, if Marcus’ research is continuing elsewhere. The ‘fruits’ of his research infest the training facility. RE0 – UNOFFICIAL EVENTS With Umbrella personnel now on the site, James Marcus releases his leeches into the training facility, infecting everyone who comes into contact with the Tyrant virus. REUC – SEALED LETTER TO SERGEI VLADIMIR Senior Umbrella execs {White Umbrella} from around the world presumably including Spencer and Sergei hold a private television conference to discuss the Arklay disaster. A response has been decided upon and X Day has been scheduled for July 24th. REMAKE – MAIL FROM CHIEF OF SECURITY: JULY 22nd 2:13AM Albert Wesker is faxed his orders from White Umbrella. He is to lure the STARS teams to the mansion and have them fight with the BOW to record combat data. He is also to obtain two embryos of each BOW except for the Tyrant, which he is to dispose of. He is then to destroy the complete facility, wiping out all evidence of Umbrella’s actions. REUC – SEALED LETTER TO SERGEI VLADIMIR Spencer sends a private letter to Sergei who is at the Russian base. He notes how the mail for X-day procedure has already been sent and that the instruction is to destroy the Arklay Labs. However, a prototype BOW resides there by the codename of TALOS and Spencer feels it has the potential to become a very powerful BOW given time and so asks Sergei to fly to Raccoon to recover it before the mansion is destroyed. He notes how these are dangerous times for Umbrella and the Arklay outbreak presents an ideal opportunity for those to take advantage of this misfortune. He thanks Sergei for being so loyal and says he had to send a private letter because all traditional correspondence channels would be monitored. It appears that Spencer could be having suspicions about Wesker and his true motives here and so Sergei flies to Raccoon City immediately. RE0 – COURT ORDER FOR TRANSPORTATION RE2EX – REBECCA’S REPORT Ex-marine Billy Coen is found guilty of first degree murder. He is to be transferred to the Ragithon base where he will be executed upon arrival. RE0 – INVESTIGATION ORDER It appears the first team at the Training Facility, have run into trouble and called HQ for assistance. William Birkin orders a second investigation team to provide support. They will be transported to the facility by train on the evening of the 23rd. RE0 – INVESIGATOR’S REPORT 2 The investigator reports that the mission is going to hell and that they should have finished with the training facility long ago. They have been attacked from all sides by zombies and other BOW’s. They were not told they would encounter these creatures at the briefing and concludes that HQ obviously didn’t know about them either. He wonders if there is a connection to the murders in the woods and concludes that it must have all been planned and that someone deliberately scattered the T-Virus. The members of the investigation team as well as the guards and soldiers accompanying them have all been infected. All the investigator can do now is deciding whether to use his last bullet on himself or a friend. RE0 – EXECUTION ORDER Convict Billy Coen, is chained up inside the back of a MP truck ready to be transported to Ragithon to serve out his sentence. He is escorted by two members of the Military Police. They set off on their journey, having special permission to take the blocked roads through Raccoon Forest. REO – INTRO: RACCOON FOREST: 20:17PM An Umbrella owned luxury express train, the ECLIPTIC EXPRESS; is travelling at high speed en route to the old abandoned Umbrella Training Facility located deep within the forest. It carries members of a second investigation team, as ordered by William Birkin, to assist a first team who are already on site to conduct preliminary reviews on the possible re-opening of the complex. As the train speeds through the forest, it is watched by a mysterious figure that stands alone on top of a cliff. One of the passengers notices something outside his window and suddenly, the train is attacked by a swarm of leech-like parasites that attach themselves against the exterior of the transport. Soon the train is overrun. RE0 - UNOFFICIAL EVENTS The MP vehicle is attacked by a pack of Cerberus dogs whilst travelling through the forest and both the MP escorts are killed. Billy Coen manages to escape and seeks refuge on a nearby stationary train. RE0 – UNOFFICIAL EVENTS STARS Commander Albert Wesker gives the go-ahead for Bravo Team to begin their search for missing hikers in the woods before going off to meet William Birkin at the underground lab beneath Raccoon City. THE MANSION INCIDENT: 23RD-25TH JULY 1998 RE0 – INTRO: APPROX 22:17PM STARS Bravo Team is making initial sweeps through the forest as part of their on-going investigation into the brutal murders that have recently plagued the community, their mission, search and rescue and location of possible occult hideout. STARS Bravo Team: Enrico Marini – Team leader. Forest Spyer – Marksman. Richard Aiken – Communications expert. Kenneth J. Sullivan – Field Scout. Edward Dewey – Pilot. Rebecca Chambers – Medic. Kevin Dooly – Co-pilot. RE0 – INTRO REUC – TRAIN DERAILMENT INTRO Whilst flying over the forest, the Bravo helicopter suffers unexpected engine failure and pilots Edward Dewey and Kevin Dooly are forced to make an emergency landing. They manage to report the emergency over the radio before communications are abruptly cut off. The helicopter is a wreck but all the team survive the crash unharmed. Enrico orders them out to secure the area whilst Kevin remains inside to try and repair some of the damage. Whilst scouting around the woods they find a wrecked MP escort vehicle and the bodies of two military police officers. As Enrico peers down for a closer look, there is slime running down the side of the vehicle. Rookie Rebecca finds a file on convict Billy Coen, who was on his way to be executed. Edward concludes he must have murdered the men and escaped. Enrico orders the team to split up and look for him. As they head off into different directions in the thick forest, Rebecca finds the Ecliptic Express, standing stationary on the railway tracks. She goes to investigate alone as a heavy rain begins to fall. RE0 – GAME REUC – TRAIN DERAILMENT 1: INTRO The train is eerily quiet and the only sound is that of the rain pattering against the windows and roof. There are bodies everywhere, none of them are moving. She calls out for survivors but it is to no avail. There is a dead leech on the floor and she pokes it around with a gun, not noticing that a corpse has risen up behind her. RE0 – GAME The silence is broken by a radio belonging to one of the passengers. A news report is being broadcast and as she reaches down to switch it off; a zombie rises up from the chair next to her. Whirling round, she comes face to face with the stench of death. She tries to retreat but there are two more behind her. Aiming her gun, she has no choice but to shoot. It takes multiple shots to bring them all down and Rebecca is left shaking, were they not already dead? Moving on up the train she investigates a couple of passenger compartments and learns that the train belongs to Umbrella Inc, and that the passengers onboard were part of an investigation team en route to the Umbrella Training Facility located deeper in the forest. But whatever has happened to them, there doesn’t seem to be anyone left alive. Near the front of the train she finds the body of the conductor, his throat has been torn out. As she is checking the body, the convict, Billy Coen, sneaks up behind her. He has an icy demeanour and is not happy to see her, especially when he learns she is a STARS member. He moves off and mocks her when she threatens to arrest him. After he has gone, Rebecca jumps in shock as one of the windows suddenly caves in and a bloodied figure comes crashing through. It is Edward Dewey, and he has been badly wounded. He tries to compose himself but it seems to be too late for him. He manages to tell her she needs to be careful and that the forest is full of zombies and monsters, then he dies in her arms. Not having any other choice, Rebecca leaves his body and moves on back up the train. In the next carriage, there is no sign of Billy and Enrico calls her on the radio. The signal is bad and he asks where she is, it appears the rest of the team are still outside in the storm. He warns her that they have found papers in the wrecked MP truck that say Billy Coen killed as many as 23 people. He warns her to stay alert and that Coen wouldn’t think twice about killing her. Then she loses the signal before she can give him her location. As Rebecca checks out the dining car, Billy sneaks up on her and suggests they team up to escape as there are some pretty freaked out things on the train. Rebecca scoffs at the idea and moves on alone, heading up the stairs and onto the second floor of the train. At the top of the stairs all is quiet, Rebecca thinks she has found a survivor, an old man sat alone at a table, however, this turns out not to be the case as his head falls off right in front of her. The body then dissolves into hundreds of leeches and advance towards her in a bid to consume her. It is only thanks to Billy who races up the stairs to check on her do the leeches make a hasty retreat. As lighting flashes and thunder rages in the rainstorm outside, Billy and Rebecca spot a mysterious figure dressed in white robes stood on a hill. He is singing and the leeches seem to be under his command. Before they can act however, the train suddenly starts up and moves down the track, leaving Rebecca stuck with Billy and stranded from the rest of Bravo Team. In a bid to find out who is driving the train, they make for the driver’s compartment. At the front of the Ecliptic Express, two Umbrella Special Forces members codenamed Delta Team are in charge of the train. One radios through to base, where William Birkin and Albert Wesker are monitoring their progress. They report they have gained control of the train and Birkin cannot understand how the T-Virus was leaked, contaminating both the mansion and a train that is almost three miles away. Wesker says it is irrelevant and that they must make sure no knowledge of this gets out. He orders Delta Team to destroy the train but the soldiers are killed by the leeches before they can respond. Meanwhile, Rebecca and Billy fight their way back through the train, including fighting a huge mutated scorpion and find themselves in the driver’s cabin, it is now empty. REUC – TRAIN DERAILMENT 2 As they recover from their ordeal and get their bearings, Richard Aiken calls Rebecca on the radio asking where she is. Rebecca replies she isn’t exactly sure, but she can see an entrance to a building up ahead. Richard tells her he is on his way through the forest to the Spencer Mansion and she can meet up with him there. As more zombies close in on them, they retreat into the sewer and emerge into the Training Facility. RE0 – GAMEPLAY The place is an old relic and looks as though no one has been here for a long time, yet all the lanterns have been lit up. A large portrait of the first facility Director, James Marcus, looms from the top of the staircase. As they approach, Marcus’ recorded voice rings out around them, “Attention, this is Dr Marcus. Please be silent whilst we reflect upon our company motto. Obedience breeds discipline, discipline breeds unity, unity breeds power, power is life.” Back in Raccoon City, As Wesker and Birkin continue to monitor their progress an unknown man hacks into their signal claiming to be none other than James Marcus, who had been murdered 20 years ago. He reveals that the biohazard in the Spencer Lab was no accident, it was him. He also confesses to contaminating the Ecliptic Express. He burns with revenge on Umbrella. Wesker and Birkin are speechless. Rebecca and Billy begin to search through the training complex; it is filled with the wandering corpses of Umbrella’s investigation teams. As they penetrate the ancient rooms, they discover evidence of the conspiracy surrounding Dr Marcus and the origins of the T-Virus, apparently it was created using leech DNA which may explain why the leeches seem to be everywhere. REUC – BEGINNINGS 1: JULY 24TH EARLY AM Now well into the middle of the night, Birkin is becoming agitated as he watches Billy and Rebecca on the monitors. He can’t deny the evidence any longer, now that the resurrected Marcus has caused all this damage, the T-Virus will inevitably leak into Raccoon Forest and could be the start of a full-scale biohazard. Wesker says this could mark the beginning of the end for Umbrella. Birkin is furious and asks Wesker if he can really just walk away from this, after all, their research isn’t complete. Apparently though, he can. RE0 - GAMEPLAY Rebecca and Billy are becoming quite a team to help each other to survive, so much so that when Enrico calls for a mission update, Rebecca lies and says she has not yet found Billy. At the Raccoon City lab, Wesker and Birkin are pondering over the mystery man’s claims. If it is somehow true and Marcus is still alive, then Sir Spencer’s career will be over, not to mention their too. Wesker decides it is time to leave Umbrella for good. The T-Virus project is completed and all they now need is live combat data. Birkin is disgusted, refusing to comply until his G-virus project is completed. Wesker shrugs, he will follow his initial plan and lure the STARS members into the mansion, their superior combat training making them perfect test subjects. Birkin decides in the meantime he will get rid of Marcus by finding and setting off the training facility’s destruct system, that should also get rid of any active T-Virus in the area and prevent further infection. REUC – VIRUS MEMO Just before Wesker leaves the lab, Birkin gives him a special virus for his own personal use should it come to it. It is a prototype from one of the mutation stocks that possesses a unique characteristic. Tests on animals have shown them to be revived up to 70% stronger due to enhanced muscular and circulatory systems. The virus is designed to combat death and has a 90% success rate, although it has not been tested on humans yet. RE0 - GAME Eventually Rebecca and Billy make their way outside the training facility and across a huge lake to a church, underneath which houses Marcus’ lab and private chambers. After becoming separated, Rebecca rides an underground cable car back towards the outskirts of Raccoon City, where she bumps into Enrico. He says the other Bravo’s have found a mansion in the forest which Umbrella uses for research and he is heading to rendezvous with them there. He wants Rebecca to join him but she wants to find Billy. He reluctantly lets her go. Although just minutes after he has gone, Rebecca is ambushed by a prototype Tyrant that has escaped. Because it is not yet 100% operational, she is able to take it down. Rebecca takes a lift to an underground water treatment plant. Marcus watches her on camera and decides she no longer amuses him. REUC – BEGINNINGS 1 After leaving the Raccoon Lab, Wesker contacts Birkin via radio to tell him he is going to return to the training facility before departing. He wants to get a first hand look at the carnage Marcus has been causing before concluding whether they have to scrap the reclamation project. RE0 - GAME Whilst exploring the water treatment facility, she finds Billy, washed up in the sewerage water and barely alive. They move on, and eventually encounter Marcus. When he attacks them however, the queen leech inside of him breaks his mould and mutates. After a tense fire fight, they manage to knock it down and escape. REO – GAME: DAWN REUC – UNOFFICIAL EVENTS Wesker meanwhile, has made his way through the training facility and has deemed the facility a total loss, he then relays this to Birkin over the radio. William Birkin activates the self destruct sequence at the water treatment facility which is also wired up to the training facility in Raccoon Forest. The Queen Leech is still not dead and pursues Rebecca and Billy up a freight elevator shaft as they make a bid to reach the surface. REUC – BEGINNINGS 1 INTRO REUC – BEGINNINGS 2 With the self destruct counting down, Wesker decides to make his escape and plans to exit via the train tunnel where the wreck of the Ecliptic Express still lies. Something he didn’t plan for however, was encountering Sergei Vladimir by the wreck of the train. He is with one of his enhanced T-103 ‘Ivan’ bodyguards and is in town to recover the TALOS prototype from the mansion before it is destroyed. He asks Wesker where he thinks he is going, the calm STARS commander replies he is moving onto his next mission. Sergei taunts him that the reclamation project was his mission, and he has failed. Is he going to walk away without taking any responsibility for this failure? Wesker still remains calm and simply replies that the T-Virus is leaked and that the training facility will blow up in order to dispose of it. Sergei continues to taunt him, suggesting that maybe he needs a little reminder of just who is in charge. He sets his Ivan bodyguard on Wesker. RE0 - GAMEPLAY Once Rebecca and Billy reach the surface level, they find the queen is pervious to daylight and so they open the roof up to destroy it. They then run out into the forest as the whole facility begins to explode behind them. REUC – BEGINNINGS 2 Wesker manages to weaken Ivan, when the facility suddenly explodes above them, knocking Sergei back and giving Wesker an opportunity to make his escape. Sergei does not seem to be bothered as they have the TALOS retrieval to take care of. RE0 - EPILOGUE Rebecca and Billy emerge back into Raccoon Forest. They rest on the top of a hill. Below, they can see the Spencer Mansion, remote and ominous looking. Rebecca officially declares Billy Coen dead and they part, taking his dog tags. He watches her head towards the mansion to meet up with her team, and then he turns and vanishes into the woods. REUC – NIGHTMARE 1 INTRO Rebecca makes it to the Spencer Mansion to rendezvous with the rest of Bravo Team. However, she cannot find anybody and the mansion is eerily quiet. She goes to the guardhouse and rests on the bed in one of the dormitories. She soon falls into a deep sleep. REUC – BEGINNINGS 2 EPILOGUE Wesker rendezvous with the STARS Alpha Team, he realises now that Sergei Vladimir is in town, and there is no time for delays. REUC – DARK LEGACY 2 REUC – RED QUEEN NOTES Umbrella’s new state or the art artificial intelligence defence system Red Queen goes online. The AI is contained within UMF 13 yet it has unrestricted access to the entire Umbrella network for administration, monitoring and carrying out certain procedures. This additional functuality is a failsafe, but in most circumstances, Red Queen is in the background performing only its primary monitoring function. In emergencies, it will serve a more active role and protect sensitive systems and data from intrusion along with cleaning up hostiles. It is self-aware and can take these measures based on its own judgement. RE1 – MANUAL: DAY The remaining members of STARS Alpha Team arrive in Raccoon City late in the day. REBIRTH – UNOFFICIAL EVENTS: NIGHT Contact has been lost with Bravo Team for nearly 24 hours now and Wesker has been given authorisation to take in Alpha Team to search and locate the Bravos and bring them home safe. STARS ALPHA TEAM: Albert Wesker – Commander. Team leader. Barry Burton – Weapons specialist Chris Redfield – Marksman Jill Valentine – Machinist Joseph Frost – Vehicle specialist Brad Vickers – Pilot Brad Vickers preps the helicopter and they take off at dusk, heading away from the city lights and towards the forbidding Raccoon Forest, the source of all the recent murders and disappearances. REMAKE – INTRO Alpha Team are focusing on the areas shortly before they lost contact with Bravos chopper. After a few initial sweeps, it is Jill who spots the ominous sight of the wreckage. It confirms their fears that the helicopter has indeed crashed. They land nearby. Aware that they are now in the danger zone, Brad keeps the engine hot whilst the others step out into the warm, summer night, weapons primed. The chopper however, appears to be deserted, indicating that the team survived the crash. Joseph steps into the wrecked cabin. He has a shoulder-mounted cam to record everything. The interior is a wreck and what is more suspicious is that the Bravo Team appeared to have left the scene without most of their equipment and the heavier weapons. Looking closer, Joseph finds bloodstains and when he peers into the cockpit he makes a gruesome discovery. Kevin Dooly, the Bravo Team’s pilot. He lies dead in his chair, his face mutilated and one of his eyes scratched out. Joseph jumps away in disgust. Wesker orders his men to fan out and search the surrounding area. The forest is eerily quiet and there is no sound of any local wildlife. Suddenly, Joseph is attacked by a pack of Cerberus dogs, and Jill can only watch in terror as they tear the STARS member apart. Chris grabs Jill and the dogs give chase. Thanks to covering fire from Barry and Wesker, they manage to get away. But Brad loses his nerve in the helicopter and takes off without them. They have no choice but to run for a strange house in the distance. But Chris is lost somewhere outside. Jill, Barry and Wesker sag into the main hall of a grand mansion. Jill wants to go back outside for Chris but Wesker tells her it would only end in her death. They hear a sudden gunshot and Wesker sends the two Alphas to investigate whilst he secures the main hall. REMAKE – JILL GAME Jill and Barry enter the next room which turns out to be a magnificent dining room with a grand oak table stretching across the room. It is uninhabited, yet a fire burns fiercely in the grate at the far end. As Barry makes his way over, Jill peers out of the windows, suddenly put on her guard by a rumble of thunder. Barry calls her over, he has found something. There is a pool of blood by the fire, it is fresh. Barry hopes it doesn’t belong to Chris or one of the Bravo’s. He wants to investigate further and asks Jill to check out the other door in the room. It leads into a corridor with a few doors, all are locked. She turns back and heads to the other end of the corridor and round the corner. There is something there. A man appears hunched over a fallen figure. Jill isn’t sure what is happening at first, until the figure takes a huge bite out of the other’s neck. Jill reels in horror as she realises the dead person is Kenneth Sullivan from the Bravo Team. The figure turns towards Jill, blood dripping from its mouth. She cannot comprehend what is happening as she staggers backwards, the thing lunging at her with decaying arms. As lightning flashes through the window, she fumbles for the door handle and stumbles back into the dining room. She screams at Barry about a monster and he whirls at the sound of her voice. Raising his colt, he pumps three .365 rounds into the thing, the zombie, and it collapses to the cold, marble floor. Barry wonders just what the hell it is and Jill tells him the creature has killed Kenneth. Before doing anything else they decide to report back to Wesker. Before they leave however, they hear the sound of a closing door and notice the thing’s body has disappeared. Back in the main hall, lightning flashes, the storm must be over them now and to make the joke even worse, Captain Wesker is nowhere to be seen. Jill and Barry call out to him but there is no answer. Jill has a quick check up the stairs but it is empty. There is no evidence lying around for what could have happened to him. It seems the STARS team is being picked off one by one and now only two of them are left. They decide to split up to look for him. Barry will check the dining room again and Jill will try the door on the opposite side. They agree to meet back in the main hall if anything happens. Warning each other to be careful, they reluctantly go their separate ways. Whilst exploring the eastern wing of the house, Jill enters a bathroom, where she is horrified to find a zombie in the bathtub. It lunges for her, falling onto the floor where she repeatedly stamps on its head. She is then sick in the toilet. REUC – NIGHTMARE 1 Rebecca is still fast asleep in the guardhouse having a horrible nightmare about the Yawn. She is awoken by Richard Aiken, who is investigating the guardhouse. He is glad to see her though she doesn’t say anything about Billy. She tells him Edward is dead. Richard replies that things are not much better on his end either. The rest of Bravo Team is either in hiding or they are already dead. They decide to head back to the mansion to see if they can find Enrico. REMAKE – JILL GAME Moving on through the eastern wing, Jill checks the next room where she falls victim to one of the mansion’s infamous traps. She is in a small reception room, where a fine antique shotgun hangs on the wall. It is loaded and in working order, so she takes it, unknowingly triggering a mechanism on the wall. However, when she leaves the room, the door locks behind her and the ceiling begins to lower. Finding the other door locked also, she begins to panic, calling out for help. Meanwhile, for some unknown reason, Barry happens to be in the corridor outside and can hear her screams. He comes to her aid, blowing the door open with his colt. The ceiling is almost on top of her and he manages to drag her out just in time. She is thankful, yet wonders why Barry is here when he was supposed to be investigating the west wing. He says he just had something he wanted to check. He tells her they must get back to looking for Wesker and Chris and they split up once more. REMAKE – UNOFFICIAL EVENTS Meanwhile, outside the mansion in the thunderstorm, Chris Redfield has managed to evade and survive the Cerberus dogs. He manages to get into the mansion via a back door. REUC – NIGHTMARE 2 Having come back to the mansion, Richard and Rebecca are on the second floor of the main hall, when they notice something out of the main windows. Two unknown figures appear to be leaving the mansion and heading out into the forest. This is Sergei Vladimir and his bodyguard Ivan. They have retrieved the TALOS prototype, as per Spencer’s orders. As they reach the forest, they are attacked by a pack of Cerberus dogs, which Ivan calmly dispatches. REMAKE – CHRIS GAME After coming across some zombies and realising the house is no safer inside than out, he begins to search for his comrades and finds a note from Wesker pinned up against the wall. He has left some ammo in an adjacent room and has gone on ahead to look for a way out. So someone else is alive at least. REMAKE – JILL GAME Jill meanwhile, has moved upstairs and has emerged onto the second floor balcony. Barry is here, and is startled to see her. He shows her what he has found and points to the corpse of Bravo Team’s marksman, Forest Spyer. He appears to have been dead for a while and looks like he has been pecked to death by crows. Jill can’t believe it and is beginning to wonder if the whole team has been wiped out. Barry takes Forest’s grenade launcher and hands it to Jill before they split up once again. REUC – NIGHTMARE 2 Richard and Rebecca are on the second floor western terrace when they are suddenly attacked by a swarm of crows. Richard fires a few rounds into the air to frighten them off. Rebecca is very upset, and now believes they are the only ones left alive, they still can’t find Enrico. Richard tries to cheer her up when without warning; they are ambushed by the Yawn, a huge snake mutated by the T-Virus. Together they manage to fend it off and retreat, though the snake relentlessly pursues its prey throughout the Western Wing of the house. Eventually, they come to the library, where all seems quiet until the yawn finds them once more. Richard saves Rebecca only to be caught in the snake’s jaws himself. Rebecca manages to wound it badly enough for it to drop Richard and slide off out of sight. Richard is still alive though his right arm is covered in bites and it looks like he has been poisoned. They get up and move to look for help but Richard is too weak and they collapse in a corridor on the East Wing of the mansion. REMAKE – CHRIS GAME Meanwhile, Chris has found a key and managed to unlock a few doors around the mansion. He has dispatched a few undead, but his ammo is low. However, on the second floor, he finds two survivors, rookie medic Rebecca Chambers and communications expert Richard Aiken, both members of Bravo Team. Richard is badly wounded however, and appears to have been bitten by a poisonous snake. He is delirious and warns Chris to get his team out of the mansion before it’s too late. Rebecca says that there is an infirmary on the first floor where there is some serum. Chris hurries to get it. Five minutes later he is back and Rebecca administers it to Richard. He gives Chris his radio before his eyes close…But he is ok, Rebecca says he is just unconscious. They decide to move him to a safer place. They reach the first floor infirmary where Richard lies asleep on the bed. Rebecca stays with him whilst Chris moves on to search for the others. REMAKE – JILL GAME Meanwhile, Jill and Barry find a file that begins to offer some brief clues as to what has happened here. There appears to have been an accident with some sort of virus, although there appears someone has been trying to destroy evidence. Barry goes on ahead; he seems to be acting suspiciously. REMAKE – CHRIS GAME Meanwhile, low on ammo, Chris returns to the infirmary where Rebecca patches up his wounds. Richard is still sleeping. Rebecca plays a grand piano in the bar which unlocks a secret passage revealing some clues about the mansion’s dark past. Apparently, the former owners were not too happy about people finding out their secrets. REMAKE – JILL GAME Jill finds the key to the mansion attic where she is attacked by a giant mutated snake. However, a recuperated Richard arrives to aid her with his assault shotgun. Together they manage to fend it off. REMAKE – CHRIS GAME Chris meanwhile has reached a crypt in the garden where a zombie elder slumbers. After defeating it he finds an emblem in its coffin which releases the lock at the back door. After leaving the main grounds he receives a garbled radio message from Wesker. He cannot make much of it out but there is a warning to keep out of the woods outside the mansion, too late. REMAKE – JILL GAME Jill too has gone through the back door and takes shelter in a small cabin and is surprised to find a warm fire burning in the grate. Suddenly, the door opens and she whirls round. Something monstrous appears out of the shadows; a hideously deformed creature with a hunched back bound in shackles. It is Lisa Trevor; she has been a test subject here for over 30 years and has been wandering around the grounds since the accident. She knocks Jill unconscious. REMAKE – CHRIS GAME Meanwhile, Chris has reached the Guardhouse. It too also houses zombies. He finds a lot of research papers indicating the scientists here were very interested in the STARS. He finds a secret passageway down to a flooded aquarium. Richard is there waiting for him. But the aqua ring is not empty and they are attacked by sharks. Richard sacrifices his life to save Chris from a huge mutated great white named Neptune. Chris manages to escape and he and Rebecca encounter and destroy Plant 42. He then runs into Wesker, who is startled to see him alive. He says he got separated from Jill and the others. He orders Chris to go back to the mansion and try to find a way to get into the locked rooms they haven’t checked yet, while he searches the rest of the guardhouse. Wesker meanwhile, has released the MA-121 hunters from their cages and they know prowl the mansion, unbeknownst to the other survivors. On his way back up to the mansion, Chris receives a call on the radio from Brad. It seems he is still above in the helicopter circling the estate for them. The radio is broken however and Chris cannot reply to his message. REMAKE – JILL GAME Meanwhile, Jill has regained consciousnesses and finds herself at the mercy of the abdominal Lisa Trevor. She manages to escape her grasp and flee into the garden. In the main courtyard she discovers a secret tunnel behind the waterfall which gives access to an underground network of tunnels. It is down here that she comes across wounded Bravo Team leader Enrico Marini. She cannot believe he is still alive yet he is wary of her. He tells her of a traitor amongst the STARS and that they have been set up by Umbrella. Jill thinks it could be Barry, as both she and Wesker have noticed has been acting strange all night. Enrico however, strongly suspects Chris. However, before they can do anything Enrico is shot and killed by an unseen assassin. Jill immediately takes off after her assailant, and runs into Barry. He claims he heard someone’s voice in the tunnels. Together, they power up and ride the elevator to the lower levels of the catacombs. At the bottom, they hear a ghostly moan. Barry tells Jill to go on ahead while he secures the elevator. Jill runs into Lisa Trevor but manages to evade her. Upon returning to Barry however, he abandons her and rides the elevator up on his own, leaving her stranded. REMAKE – CHRIS GAME Meanwhile Chris has returned to the mansion on Wesker’s orders only to find it infested with a new type of creature. The hunters are extremely dangerous reptilian creatures, capable of decapitating a human with their sharp claws. He can hear screaming, it sounds like Rebecca and he wonders if she is upstairs. He races to the second floor and finds her fending off a hunter in the library. As it corners her, Chris kills it with his shotgun. Rebecca is shaken but thankful. Chris tells her to use her better judgment and to stay out of sight whilst he goes on ahead. They have to find the others. Rebecca stays behind whilst Chris returns to the main hall, having found the two emblems that unlock the door beneath the stairs. Venturing down into the bowels of the mansion he hears gunshots. Climbing down a ladder he emerges in a huge tomb and finds Captain Wesker embodied in combat with a huge creature, the mutated Lisa Trevor. Wesker slaps home a fresh clip and invites Chris to help him out. Together they drive the creature away by opening up the stone sarcophagus in the centre of the room. It ignores the two STARS officers and takes the skull of the occupant inside the tomb and then kills itself by hurling off the edge of the chasm. Wesker reloads and tells Chris to go on ahead whilst he checks out the area a little further. REMAKE – CHRIS GAME: JULY 25TH PRE-DAWN UNOFFICIAL EVENTS Chris emerges into another section of the garden where he uncovers the secret entrance leading to an underground laboratory. Once inside he uncovers proof that all the creatures loose on the estate are the result of experiments authorised by Umbrella. He also discovers that Captain Wesker is working for them! However, he is hit from behind and knocked unconscious. REMAKE – JILL GAME REMAKE – CHRIS GAME REUC – MANSION INCIDENT 3 Meanwhile, Jill has also stumbled across the labs. Using three MO discs, she finds Chris locked up in a cell but she can’t get him out. He tells her Wesker is the traitor. She runs into Barry, who apologises for leaving her and together they take the elevator down to the main experiment room. As they enter, Wesker is waiting for them. Hiding behind one of the cultivation tanks, he injects himself with the mutated virus Birkin gave him the previous night. As Wesker steps out to Jill it seems her suspicions about Barry are confirmed when he suddenly holds her at gunpoint. After it is revealed that Wesker has been with Umbrella all along and that STARS have been set up for this whole incident, Wesker orders Barry to go to the heliport and later mocks Jill that the threat on Barry’s family was just a bluff. Wesker shows Jill the Tyrant, before attempting to shoot her but Barry is in their first and puts two rounds into Wesker’s shoulder. He apologises to Jill after learning that Wesker’s threat over his family was just a bluff. Semi-conscious, Wesker unleashes the tyrant before Barry can stop him. The Tyrant turns on Wesker and spears him through the chest, tossing his lifeless body aside; it turns upon Jill and Barry. The Tyrant wounds Barry, knocking him out, leaving Jill to take it on alone. After a brief battle, the monster is felled. They decide to make their escape and head back up the elevator. After freeing Chris from the cells they find Rebecca, who says she has been tracking Chris since she saw him in the garden. She tells them that with all the BOW running loose and T-Virus infection, they should blow the labs up. As the others head for the surface, Rebecca heads to the lab to activate the triggering system. REUC – REBIRTH 1 Albert Wesker opens his eyes, he is alive. Taking off his shades he stands up, blood running from multiple wounds over his body, yet he feels no pain. The virus is working. Looking round, he see’s the Tyrant is on the floor, apparently dead and that someone has set off the self-destruct system. He needs to change his plan and secure his escape. Moving to the computer, he attempts to download all the combat data on the BOW but finds that due to the emergency conditions, all the data has been backed up to the mainframe system UMF-13. When he tries to access the mainframe he finds his access privileges have been revoked thanks to Umbrella’s new AI Red Queen. Wesker concludes this must be the work of Sergei Vladimir after their unpleasant meeting at the training facility the night before. Now the plan has definitely changed, he had better secure his escape, and then he would deal with Umbrella later. In order not to run into Chris and the others who have likely gone to the helicopter landing pad, Wesker elects to take a route back through to the mansion and walk straight out the front door. REMAKE: JILL GAME REMAKE: CHRIS GAME As the countdown to destruction continues, Jill receives transmissions over the radio from Brad, he is running out of fuel and that this is their last chance to give him a signal. They quicken the pace. Barry and Rebecca stand guard to lay covering fire as Chris and Jill ride up the elevator to the helipad to signal the helicopter. REUC – REBIRTH 2 Back in the mansion, Wesker encounters Lisa Trevor blocking his exit. She is somehow still alive despite him and Chris filling her with bullets some hours earlier. They stand off in the main hall before Wesker eventually shoots down the great chandelier above which comes crashing down on her, allowing him to get out the front door. REMAKE: DAWN The others manage to reach the helipad where they use a flare to signal Brad in the helicopter but as he tries to land the tyrant is back for one last battle. Brad drops a rocket launcher down and Chris uses it to blow the creature to hell. They then board and escape as the mansion and labs go up behind them. REUC – REBIRTH 2: EPILOGUE Wesker uses his new found strength to sprint away through the forest as the mansion goes up in flames behind him. UNOFFICIAL EVENTS: JULY 25TH DAY The survivors return to the RPD to be met with a mixed and bemused reception. 8 out of their 13 man elite squad dead, including Commander and leader Albert Wesker. Convict Billy Coen also believed to be dead, his body not recovered. They are ordered to take time off to recover from their ordeal, giving Umbrella time to plan their next move before the survivor’s formal reports are submitted. REUC – TRAIN DERAILMENT 3: EPILOGUE Billy Coen completely disappears after the incident. He is never heard from again. RE2EX-JILL’S REPORT Jill immediately makes a report about Umbrella’s bio-weapons programme found at the Arklay Labs. UNOFFICIAL EVENTS: JULY 26TH RE - ARCHIVES The STARS are officially removed from the investigation into the brutal murders recently plaguing the community. Reports citing the unit may be disbanded after the deaths of several team members including branch Commander, Captain Albert Wesker. RE3 – MANAGER’S DIARY: JULY 29TH At the Dead Factory, the functions of the disposal system are decreasing yet the number of bodies is increasing. The infection level has increased and the antibodies the workers are taking are not strong enough against the mutated T-virus. Some of the workers have become infected and the manager keeps a gun on him at all times. He wants to weep and remembers to keep one bullet for himself should the worst happen. RECVX/RE4 – UNOFFICIAL EVENTS: AUGUST-SEPTEMBER WESKER’S REPORT ADA’S REPORT Although assumed dead, Wesker joins ‘The Organisation’, a rival agency of Umbrella, using the combat data he gathered on the Tyrant as a way to gain membership. There he meets a spy named Ada Wong and informs the organisation of William Birkin’s G-Virus project. The group order him to acquire a sample and Wesker and Ada join forces and began to plan how they will make their move. REOUT2 – SECRET FILE: AUGUST Chief Irons receives $10,000 for services rendered by Umbrella. REOUT1 – RESEARCHER’S DIARY A researcher based at Raccoon Hospital is annoyed that he has to trudge through the sewers to get to the underground lab every day. Birkin and that pig of a Chief! He understands the reasoning due to it being a location few people would investigate, but he still refuses to go until he is provided with a boat. RES – HOW TO EXTRACT BETA HETERO NONSEROTONIN WESKER’S REPORT 2 REUC – WESKER’S REPORT EXTRACT ON THE TYRANT PLAN At an Umbrella owned island somewhere far away in the sea, workers at a factory have seemingly found a solution to the lack of available hosts suitable for the tyrant programme. Currently, the research stands at only 1 person in every 10000000 tested will have the correct adaptability to become a tyrant due to keeping the carrier’s intelligence to a certain level; the rest will simply turn into a zombie. However, research on Sheena Island has found that a material found in one of the human brain’s elements called Beta Hetero Nonserotonin which is produced by the pituitary of people at the latter period of developing their secondary sex characteristics can be injected in large doses into the host to help them keep that inner intelligence in order to become a Tyrant. The compound only exists in active cells, it cannot be extracted from a dead brain and thus the best way to extract it is to cut open the subject’s skull without using anaesthesia.
