Chapter 2 - Characters

This chapter provides vital information on the eight playable characters in Resident Evil Outbreak.

Kevin Ryman

Occupation		Police Officer
Age		31
Height		6’0"
Weight		197 lbs.
Description		He has a high-quality handgun at game start.
Personal Item		Special .45 Automatic
Special Actions		Kick (Circle + R1), Take Pot Shots (Hold R1, X)

Kevin is an excellent all-around character. He starts with a sturdy handgun (with special ammunition scattered around the scenarios) and possesses a robust kick that can push back zombies so he can make a quick escape instead of using valuable ammunition. The "Pot Shots" move enhances Kevin’s aim and damage when using his .45 handgun.

Mark Wilkins

Occupation		Security Guard
Age		52
Height		6’2"
Weight		222 lbs.
Description		He is strong with melee weapons.
Personal Item		Handgun
Special Actions		Guard (Hold R1, press Circle repeatedly), Full Swing (Hold R1, X)

Mark Wilkins is a burly security guard and, like Kevin, begins with his own handgun, which frees up other weapons for your NPC partners. Utilize Mark’s guard move to protect yourself against most enemy damage (though not virus infection). The full swing maneuver is used with melee weapons. Though he starts with a handgun, Mark is strong with melee weapons with his full swing maneuver.

Jim Chapman

Occupation		Subway Staff
Age		24
Height		5’9"
Weight		55 lbs.
Description		He will rarely be attacked by enemies.
Personal Item		Coin
Special Actions		Play Dead (Hold R1, press and hold Circle), Item Search

Jim lacks the weapon skill of Kevin the cop and Mark the security guard but he’s effective at playing dead! Jim Chapman’s special move is playing dead. He drops down onto the ground and nearby enemies ignore his presence. Note that it does increase your virus meter. Use it to skip past tougher enemies and avoid combat.

George Hamilton

Occupation		Doctor
Age		39
Height		5’10"
Weight		175 lbs.
Description		He can create many types of medicines.
Personal Item		Medical Set
Special Actions		Tackle (Circle + R1)

George comes equipped with a medical set, which converts herbs into various medicines and anti-viruses. If George is an NPC or part of your group online, hand over herbs to him to create antidotes, recovery medicines, and anti-viruses. Utilize the tackle move to push back enemies and avoid further combat.

David King

Occupation		Plumber
Age		Unknown
Height		6’0"
Weight		203 lbs.
Description		He can create new weapons using tools.
Personal Item		Toolbox
Special Actions		Lug Wrench Throw (Circle + R1), Continuous Knife Attack (Hold R1, repeatedly press X)

A plumber by trade, David King carries a toolbox to fix and create new weaponry. For instance, David can combine a lighter and the pesticide to create a flame weapon. You may also find broken weapons in some scenarios (like the broken shotgun in Below Freezing Point) and David can fix them. David’s special actions include the lug wrench throw (which tosses one of the lug wrenches from his toolbox) and the close-range knife attack.

Alyssa Ashcroft

Occupation		Reporter
Age		28
Height		5’9"
Weight		139 lbs.
Description		She is a master of unlocking things.
Personal Item		Lock Picks
Special Actions		Back Step (Circle + R1), Take Pot Shots (Hold R1, X)

Alyssa is the master of unlocking things. You’ll find locked cabinets, lockers, and doors within each scenario. Utilize Alyssa’s lock pick set to open the locked areas and recover the items inside. The back step helps Alyssa dodge nearby enemies and make an escape to conserve ammunition. She also features the pot shot ability, much like Kevin.

Yoko Suzuki

Occupation		Student
Age		20
Height		5’3"
Weight		127 lbs.
Description		She can hold more items at one time.
Personal Item		Knapsack
Special Actions		Escape (Hold R1, press and hold Circle)

Yoko’s claim to fame is her large knapsack: it holds four more items in addition to her normal four inventory slots. Thus she’s a great partner in online games. Your group can hoard more health items, more ammunition, and more vital items for the scenario. Perform Yoko’s escape maneuver to avoid enemies.

Cindy Lennox

Occupation		Waitress
Age		24
Height		5’9"
Weight		142 lbs.
Description		She can heal her friends.
Personal Item		Herb Case
Special Actions		Duck (Circle + R1)

Cindy, the waitress at J’s bar, carries an herb case that contains and can hold additional herbs. Like Yoko, Cindy is a great support party member. She can use her herbs on other party members. Use Cindy’s duck move to elude an attack and make a quick escape without wasting ammo or risking damage.
