Marvin Branagh was an officer of the Raccoon City police department.
While still serving at the police station, Marvin rallied a small group of the collected survivors present to continue fending off the undead. Soon, the grim reality set in that nowhere was safe, as the police station was infiltrated by zombies and quickly became a death trap. Shortly before rescue arrived for the group, Marvin was fatally bitten across the chest by a zombie. Knowing he was beyond help, and a professional to the end, Marvin decided to remain behind, buying time for the others to escape and he locked himself in an office. Shortly after this he fell unconscious due to the injuries he had sustained and was later discovered by Jill Valentine when she fled into the police station to escape from a Nemesis. Jill did not attempt to wake him but noted the wounds he had received were,in fact, fatal.
Marvin remained injured and in the office until Claire Redfield arrived. By this time, Marvin had awoken and had since become the only surviving officer in the building, besides Leon of course. Marvin informed Claire of her Brother's involvement in the Mansion Incident with the other members of S.T.A.R.S.. Marvin lamented he and the other R.P.D cops didn't believe their warnings about the experiments of the Umbrella Corporation. He concluded by requesting Claire find the other survivors and forget about him, which Claire attempted to argue. Desperately, Marvin rose his gun to the teenager ordering her to leave, though she complied, she promised to return. As she left, Marvin locked the door behind her knowing what he would soon become.
A while later, Claire found a way back into the office just as Marvin succumbed to his wounds and transformed into a zombie and attacked her.
In the Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles scenario, 'Memories of a Lost City', Marvin once again portrays the role he carried in Resident Evil 2 [1] unlike the original game, he is found in the main lobby of the station and introduces himself to Leon and Claire with his full name. He jokingly welcomes Leon to his party and refers to himself as Leon's (would-be) boss. He requests the two go look for survivors in the other rooms while he remains in the lobby continuing to suffer from his wounds. While chasing Sherry toward the lobby, the two discover that Marvin had become a zombie and were forced to take him down.
