Now Viewing: william_birkinTag type: Character One of the main villains of Resident Evil 2. He also makes an appearance in Resident Evil Zero, Umbrella Chronicles and the Darkside Chronicles retelling of Resident Evil 2, and Operation Raccoon City. He is a blonde mad Umbrella scientist who developed the G virus. He is close friends with the equally malevolent Albert Wesker and is the father of Sherry Birkin. Annette Birkin is his wife. He began to clash with the higher ups of Umbrella during the development of the G virus and decided to sell it to the US Government, calling for the US military to pick him up. Unfortunately for him, HUNK and his fellow Umbrella Security Service members arrive first and Birkin is effectively killed during the confrontation. Just before he dies, Birkin injects himself with a sample of the G virus and mutates into a large monster that proceeds to slaughter anyone who gets in his way and searches for a host to propagate his species. He becomes a recurring boss throughout Resident Evil 2 and mutates into increasingly monstrous forms with each encounter. There does not seem to be any of the old Birkin left in his monstrous form although he occasionally groans, "Sherry," which Sherry mistakes for William being attacked by a monster. Sherry is unaware of her father's misdeeds and doesn't seem to realize that the monster she and Claire have encountered multiple times is actually her father. He is voiced by Diego Matamaros (Resident Evil 2), and T.J. Rotolo (Umbrella Chronicles, Darkside Chronicles, Operation Raccoon City) Other Wiki Information Last updated: 09/13/12 8:20 PM by jojosstand This entry is not locked and you can edit it as you see fit. |
