Mutation 1

An aggressive mutation caused claws to sprout from its hands and increase its muscle mass. It moves much faster and is resistant even to explosives. This specimen was killed when it was hurled out of an airborne transport plane.

Mutation 1 After being shot Birkin injected himself with the G-virus. The effects were instantaneous and caused his whole body to mutate, including a Tyrant-like claw on his left arm. He promptly slaughtered the USFU team sent to kill him, leaking the T-virus in Raccoon City’s sewers in the process.

Mutation 2 After suffering substantial injuries a large aggressive mutation was induced. A new cranium was formed encased in dense bone matter. Muscle mass and claw size also increased. Two new forearms protruded from his stomach

Mutation 3 The forearms have fully developed and Birkin’s entire body is encased in armour similar to that of advanced Lickers. The new cranium is also more fully developed. His long reach makes him a formidable opponent.

Mutation 4 The cascade mutation effect causes Birkin’s body to fall lower down the evolutionary ladder, reverting to a sextupedal form. The powerful arms now serve as leg making Birkin capable of leaping twenty foot into the air. The claws have suffered a huge growth spurt forming a dense cluster round the mouth; perfect for impaling its enemy. There is no longer any humanoid resemblance left.

Mutation 5 After suffering multiple wounds and going though several rapid aggressive mutations Birkin’s DNA begins to break down under the stress and his body becomes a huge amorphous blob. Its sheer mass is its greatest weapon making it very difficult for any firearms to have any effect on it. Birkin was killed in when one of Umbrella’s trains self-destructed. Teams from HCF recovered the body.

Nemesis Nemesis is one of the deadliest BOWs ever created. Part of the Tyrant Project, the NE-T virus was used in its conception at the main Umbrella Facility in Paris. The first Nemesis was created when the NE-Alpha was inserted into the spine of a T-103. This was the Nemesis T-type. The parasite stimulates the T-virus cells and catalyses the formation of new brain cells. This allows the parasite to gain control of the host’s brain. In effect a second brain is formed, with all lower brain operations including control of the major organs and motor functions. Over time the NE-Alpha parasite will take over all bodily functions. Four compatible subjects were found, but during the mutation process one of the Nemeses maintained the ability of independent thought. Whether it was the parasite that was responsible or the host was never found out as the subject tried to escape and was destroyed immediately. The remaining Nemeses were given inhibitors that would limit the NE-Alpha’s growth when it reached maturity. This new modified Nemesis was classified the Nemesis T-02. Due to the fact that only 1 in 60,000,000 people have DNA that is compatible with the virus, Nemesis is an extremely rare BOW. It was a minor miracle that a compatible test subject was found at all. For all intents and purposes Nemesis is completely indestructible. Most conventional weapons have no effect on it and explosives only succeed in rendering it unconscious. It uses the same ‘scent’ program as the T-103s, enabling it to hunt down targets over large distances. Unlike other Tyrants, Nemesis is sentient. As it actually has a concept of what its mission is, it is able to improvise in situations. It is also able to use weaponry. In the Raccoon City incident Nemesis was issued with a modified C90-CR rocket launcher, which was used to great effect. Standing over nine feet tall, Nemesis wears the standard trench coat issued to Tyrants, which hides a mass of tentacles capable of infecting victims with the NE-T virus. The NE-T virus affects the central nervous system of the victim and can cause mild paralysis. If the victim should die, the NE-T virus contains enough T-virus cells to reanimate the victim, which increases the chances of the T-virus being spread. Unlike the T-103s, Nemesis is extremely agile, capable of jumping several storeys and outrunning any human. Its strength exceeds that of a T-103. Nemesis was killed during the Raccoon City incident by STARS member Jill Valentine. The circumstances that resulted in Nemesis’s death were extreme, and highly unlikely to be repeated. Regardless the loss of Nemesis was a huge blow to Umbrella and there is little chance of finding another compatible host.

Mutation 1 Nemesis was designed to secrete a substance that would increase its cell metabolism in order to counter any heavy attacks and recover from wounds. The downside would be more increasingly unstable mutations. After falling unconscious in a fire, Nemesis’s trench coat was burned off and its rocket launcher destroyed. The extreme pressure put on the body caused a spontaneous mutation effect seen with G-Types and Crimson Heads. Nemesis’s tentacles extended in length and the loss of the trench coat allowed greater mobility. Its attack patterns include wrapping its tentacles around its victim and throwing them against walls.

Nemesis After being decapitated, losing an arm and finally being boiled in large vat of acid in the Umbrella Waste Disposal Facility, which was designed to break down industrial waste, the remnants of Nemesis crawled to the nearby body of a T-103 and ingested some of the remains. The apparent infusion caused an extremely violent mutation. Its reaction was similar to that of a G-Type with new appendages being spontaneously generated. It also suffers from the same ‘devolution’ effect with each mutation; Nemesis reverted to a quadruped form and would have no doubt broken down into an amorphous blob had the mutations continued. An interesting chemical reaction also took place. Its unstable metabolic rate will cause a conflict between the T-virus and Nemesis-T virus cells. Nemesis can use this to its advantage by projecting a highly acidic compound of T and NE-T virus cells, capable of infecting anyone who comes into contact with this substance. Its acid and tentacle attacks are less effective than its previous attack patterns, but still lethal nonetheless. It is interesting to note that Nemesis continued to pursue its mission goal of eliminating all STARS members even when near death, and when mutations should have substantially altered its brain.

Mutation 1 The T-Veronica virus had now been fully incorporated into her body giving her the ability to mutate at will. She generated an insect-like exoskeleton around herself. Her blood has mutated into a substance that combusts on contact with air, which will injure anyone in the vicinity if they inflict damage on her body. This means that she has overcome the weakness of pyrosensitivity that all other BOWs suffer from. She can also control the T-virus infected ant hive using pheromones.

Mutation 2 After being attacked Alexia absorbed a tentacle into herself and mutated into something reminiscent of a queen ant. Her huge mass makes it difficult to inflict damage. She also produces small insect-like creatures that will attack enemies in the area and protect her.

Mutation 3 After being injured Alexia lost control over the hive. The main body was destroyed by the ants, but her upper body detached itself and mutated into a dragonfly-like creature. Very fast moving and spewing flaming ichor she was killed by a STARS member with a prototype anti-BOW weapon. Her remains were incinerated in the Antarctica base self-destruct.

Mutation 3 The leech queen continued growing, aggravated by an aggressive mutation caused in response to damage done to it by personnel in the area. It uses its acid spit to wound targets before crushing them with its massive girth. Unfortunately this BOW is extremely photosensitive and therefore not practical as a weapon. It was destroyed in UTF’s self-destruct.
