The best Resident Evil character ever?

[Rakkoon]

Why don't you start throwing stones at her?

[Weskers Flag]

Okay Rakkoon./ In my opinion, Ada's a whore.
You don't share the same opinion, and I respect that. But, you also have to respect that I have a different opinion.

[Gradon]

Even if, in your opinion, Ada is a whore, it's quite illogical and immature...

[Weskers Flag]

How so?

And anyways, who ever said that being a whore was a bad thing?

[Mr. Spencer]

Well, my favourite protagonist would have to be Chris Redfield. I would give an honourable mention to Leon S. Kennedy in his RE2 incarnation, back when he a rookie cop. He had this wonderful 90s vibe about him. His hair, his clothing.

As for antagonists, I would have to vouch for Nicholai. He's somewhat underrated, even though he managed to screw everyone over throughout the course of RE3. Tried to kill Jill on a number of occasions, and all for the megabucks. I don't think he really cared all that much about Umbrella.

Again, honourable mention to Sergei Vladimir - who despite everyone's misgivings about him being a throwaway character scheduled to die just to make Wesker look good, was actually quite a sympathetic villain. Unlike most Umbrella officials, he genuinely lamented over the loss of those under his command. Yet all along he was being set up as a fall guy.

Oh, and Vincent Goldman from Survivor. Sure, Alfred murdered his own secretary and Marcus used people as test subjects, but Goldman killed children. With the right motive or the wrong mindset, anyone can kill a man, but it takes a certain kind of depravity to kill a child. What's worse about it is the fact that Goldman wasn't insane, he knew exactly what he was doing and why he was doing it.

Ambitious, yes. Paranoid, yes. But he wasn't insane. Think about it, the man murdered dozens if not hundreds of children just to further his own career. He was the man that Umbrella sent in to get the dirty work done, and Goldman had no qualms about doing so.

So, to summarise:

Protagonists: Chris Redfield, Leon S. Kennedy (RE2)
Antagonists: Nicholai Ginovaef, Sergei Vladimir and Vincent Goldman.

I think with Sergei, it would have been better if he weren't just made up in Umbrella Chronicles, but rather was at least mentioned in the other games.

[Mr. Spencer]

I don't know, I think they linked him in quite well. A lot of files connecting him with other characters in the series, such as Nicholai and Spencer. In fact, he was something of a friend to Nicholai. My own theory is that Sergei was the one who introduced Nicholai to Umbrella, offered him a career there and all that. When the Cold War ended, a lot of former Red Army soldiers were more or less stranded.

While most of them were reformed into a new army, a good deal of them ended up outsourcing themselves to other places. The collapse of the Soviet Union gave Umbrella an almost limitless supply of experienced, professional soldiers. Sergei joined shortly after, and most likely recruited a large number of ex-Soviet soldiers for his UBCS. Given his "friendship" with Nicholai, I imagine that Sergei recognised his abilities and gave him a place where he would make the best use out of them - Monitor. He was a member of the Russian special forces afterall, so his survival during Raccoon City isn't outside the realms of possibility. Nor is Jill's for that matter, being former Delta Force.

[Weskers Flag]

Hm. I didn't know that.

[Mr. Spencer]

Yup. Here's the corresponding file if anyone's curious.

-Letter from Sergei to Nicholai
Nicholai, I apologize for the delay in
responding

Your offer definitely has the potential
to turn quite a profit. However, the
price I had to pay was high and had
to be considered carefully.

I have not changed my mind about
relinquishing them. I understand that
these ten soldiers I've found alongside
with are nothing more than a number, a
price tag, to Umbrella.

I'm sure you are finding this all quite
amusing, Silver Fox, but this is a sad
day for me. I feared the day I would
have to make this decision.

After all, these men were all raised by
me and are a part of me. I can't help
but feel reservations about turning
these thinking, feeling human beings
into biological weapons and cursing
them to an eternity of living death.

However, I have made my decision
and will not waver. Progress is always
built on sacrifice. If we are to truly
restore our Mother into the great
country she once was, I am willing to
endure any amount of suffering and a
price in blood is still a small price to
pay.

If I have to cut down my very body,
it is a sacrifice I am willing to make.
I will wail and shed tears of blood
and rend every last flesh of regret
from my body if it means I can usher
in a new age.

My answer comrade is yes.
Silver Fox, your wish shall be granted.

Sergei Vladimir

What he's referring to exactly is still a subject for debate, but a few people are convinced that it's in regards to Sergei's ten clones.

[Weskers Flag]

Where did you find this?

[Bertha]

Even if, in your opinion, Ada is a whore, it's quite illogical and immature...

Thank you. I find it amusing that people always call Ada a whore but she's showing less skin than Jill. And she's a spy...she's supposed to be enticing to her contacts. She's the classic example of any Bond girl or Le Femme Nikita. If Ada was a whore, she would have been all over Leon, Ben, Luis, Krauser, Wesker, and any of the other males that appeared in the games she was with. Not including the terrible forced romance between her and Leon, she shows a bigger disinterest in most people.

[Mr. Spencer]

Where did you find this?

It's one of the files in Umbrella Chronicles.

[Weskers Flag]

Oh, I haven't found it, yet.

Also, can somebody tell me what an infraction is?

[Rakkoon]

I find it amusing that people always call Ada a whore but she's showing less skin than Jill.

I wouldn't call either a whore.

[Mr. Spencer]

Oh, I haven't found it, yet.

Also, can somebody tell me what an infraction is?

It's a warning.
