C-Virus

Revision as of 06:27, 1 July 2015

The C-Virus is a virus that features in Resident Evil.

History

The C-Virus was developed in 2001 where it was designed by Dr. Carla Radames who specialized in virology and bio-weapons in order to impress his employer Derek C. Simmons. It was a viral strain developed from the Progenitor Virus with the T-Veronica Virus used in its development. Dr. Radames managed to remove the T-Veronica Virus need for a host to enter into a hibernation state in order for it to co-exist with its host. The resultant virus was designated t-02 and the G-Virus virus genome was added into it as the next step in its evolution. Carla had attained that sample of the virus through the regular blood samples taken from Sherry Birkin allowing her to complete this part of the developmental cycle.

Overview

Infected subjects entered into a state of intense febrility where their body heat increased exponentially and following damage sustained on the body it would regenerate from wounds whilst becoming even hotter. As such, whilst a J'avo may heal or mutate damaged limbs or body parts but the body heat generated would increase to the point that they succumbed to their wounds whereupon the corpse burst into flames. Some of those infected exhibited similar symptoms when entering into the Chrysalid state where their bodies engulfed into flames before the hardened cocoon encased them entirely.

Notes

• In the novel Biohazard to the Liberty (2002), an unrelated virus known as the C-Virus was created by Umbrella researcher Dr. Robert Chang that mutated the host to their psychological needs and instilled a desire to achieve perfection.
