Further notes

Revenants were a type of human bioweapon engineered on Sein Island by the Uroboros research team under Dr. Alex Wesker.

History[]

A Revenant is created by stitching together various body parts into a humanoid figure before infecting the mass with Uroboros virus. This results in a living organism of humanoid appearance, able to move each body part like a walking marionette.[1][excerpt 1]

Following the demise of the research team in 2011, the Revenants were free to explore the ruined island. Though it is uncertain when precisely they escaped the mines, within six months they and other Uroboros mutants almost succeeded in wiping out all other life on the island. All Revenants are believed destroyed following a BSAA operation to sterilise the island.

  1. Excerpt from ULTIMANIA, p.268: "あやつり人形のような奇怪な動作で島内をうろつきまおる、いびつなフォルムの人影。これらは複数の死体のパーツをつなぎ合わせて造ったフランケンシュタインの奇怪のことき生命体であり、被験体が人格を破壊されて凶暴化したアフィルクテッドとは根本的に異なる存仕である。行動をつかさどっているのは人の脳ではなく、人体を苗床に増殖したウロボロス・ウィルスそのもので、この増殖能力を持つ嚢胞の“核”を破壊しないかぎり動きを止めることはできない。"
