Versus Series: Resident Evil Ladies "fatal" 4 way.

In this Versus Series, I will take 4 lovely and bad ass ladies of the Resident Evil series. Each lady featured will have been in more then 2 games (Which leaves out certain characters). Lets get started.

 Rebecca Chambers (RE0 and RE1): Rebecca was a member of STARS (Special Tactics And Rescue Service/Squad) Bravo team. Graduated college at 18 years old and joined STARS at the same age. She had the least experience of any member of STARS. She was assigned too rearguard however she was eager too please and would take any assignment without hesitation. In July 23 1998 she was with Bravo team when they where sent too investigate murders of people in the Arklay Mountains. In route there chopper crashed and set out too search the area. They found an MP vehicle over turned and MPs dead. They search the vehicle and find a dossier of Ex marine Billy Cohen whom is scheduled too be executed for "killing" 23 people. Bravo team separates too search for Billy. Rebecca finds a train and decides too investigate. When on the train she fights the undead and eventually finds Billy. She "places him under arrest" but Billy brushes her off. Rebecca meets Billy again and asks her too join up with him. She brushes him off and decides she can handle it on her own. She ends up unable too handle her situation on her own and Billy saves her. Billy again asks her too join up and she reluctantly agrees. After killing a giant scorpion and discovering the train is out of control and unsuccessfully stop it they find themselves in a secret training base of Umbrella. The duo work and kill there way through the base and eventually escape. Rebecca takes Billys dog tags and sets off for another mansion while Billy is let go. When at the other mansion Rebecca rests from her ordeal but is haunted by nightmares. She finds other STARS Alpha team members. She along with Chris Redfield uncover the true player behind the scenes. She along with Jill Valentine and Chris escape the second mansion. After that she went too work for the BSAA as an advisior in 2005. She also did missions for the BSAA and help stop bio-hazard outbreaks across the world. Rebecca is one of the few surviving members of STARS.

 Jill Valentine (RE1, RE3 and RE5) was a member of Delta force before joining STARS. She was assigned too Rearguard of Alpha team because of her already well-developed skill set. She is also a expert in bomb disposal. She toke part in the Mansion incident, surviving with Barry Barton, Chris and Rebecca. Two months later he was in Raccoon City when the city fell too the T-virus. With the city full of zombies Jill had too fight too survive. Along the way being hunted by a Umbrella weapon called "Nemesis" which was after the remaining STARS members. Jill hide in the police department building but found getting around hard because of the surviving police officers had blocked off sections of the building. The "Nemesis" returns and Jill defends herself. She has too leave the police station in order too find someone named Carlos. She finds him and they work together too leave the city. While trying too escape Jill is infected with the T-virus and is unconscious for 2 days. After waking up and thanking Carlos for saving her life they continue too find a way too escape. By that time the Nemesis was fully mutated and determined too kill her. Jill finally kills the Nemesis and escape with Carlos after Barry comes back for them. The city is destroyed by the US government. After that she toke part in operations too destroy Umbrella once and for all. In 2003 she and Chris finally did so after a long and gruelling operation in Russia. After that Jill, Chris and 9 others founded the BSAA. From 2004 too 2006 Jill toke part in various operations in containing and ridding the world of biohazard outbreaks. In 2006 Jill and Chris got a good tip about the whereabouts of Oswell E. Spencer one of the founding members of Umbrella. When they find him he is dead and Albert Wesker (their former boss) killed him. Jill saves Chris from death by sacrificing herself by tackling Wesker out a window. Jill and Wesker are presumed dead. Jill and Wesker survived but Jill was severely injured. Wesker finds out the T-virus being inside her and uses her for experiment and keeps her in cryo-sleep. In 2009 Chris and Sheva are in Africa and find Jill with Wesker. She is under Weskers control via mental manipulation. Chris and Sheva save Jill from Weskers control. Jill helps Sheva and Chris kill Wesker and taken back too the BSAA for tests and recovery.

 Ada Wong (RE2, RE4and RE6) little is known about "Ada Wong" prior too 1998. However she is a spy and works for mysterious companies and with her own objectives in mind. She will play anyone too get what she wants or too complete her objectives. Ada makes her first appearance in 1998 in Raccoon City after the city falls too the T-virus. She is looking for her boyfriend. He lost his life when the T-virus took over the city. She was sent too Raccoon City too find the G-virus from William Burkin (whom had injected him with it and became no longer human). She met up Leon S. Kennedy, a rookie cop with the RCPD and ask him too help her find a reporter. They end up finding the report in the RCPD jail locked in a cell. He doesn't give them anything for a way out of the city through the sewers. When the reporter is fatally wounded by Burkin he gives up all he knows about what is going on (helping Ada with her objectives.) Ada saves Leons life twice but not before being seriously wounded herself. He ends up getting the G-virus and escapes the city before it is destroyed by a missile. In 2004 Ada was sent too Europe by Albert Wesker so they could get a sample of the Las Plagas. While there she met up with Leon again who was on a mission of his own. Wesker orders him dead but Ada "doesn't always play his rules" and lets Leon go many times. Ada ends up retrieving the Las Plagas sample and leaves the island (while helping Leon in the process.) In 2011 Ada was in Eastern Europe as an agent for the BSAA. She mets up with Leon again and together they help stop a viral outbreak there. In 2012-13 Ada was in the North Atlantic Ocean when she discovered the US will suffer a bio-terrorist attack, followed by China and every major city on Earth. Ada then heads too Tall Oaks Cathedral and meets up with Leon and Helena. Together the trio fight their ways through Tall Oaks and other nearby places. Eventually Ada completes her objectives and takes another job.

 Claire Redfield (RE2, CV, RE:Rev2) is the younger sister of Chris Redfield. Claire was trained by Chris himself and can more then handle yourself in hand too hand combat.In 1998 Claire went too Raccoon City too find her brother but found the city overrun by the city overrun with zombies. She heads too the RCPD building after being separated from Leon. After arriving she finds her brothers diary and he isn't in Raccoon City. She also comes across the corrupt police chief Brad Irons. He tries too killer but fails. Claire also finds Sherry Burkin and they both try too escape the city. Sherry however is infected with the G-virus and Claire must find a cure. Sherrys mother gives Claire the instructions too make the cure gives it too Sherry. Claire meets up with Leon and all 3 escape the city. 3 months later Claire looks for her brother in Paris but gets caught and transported too Rockfort island. The island is infected with the T-virus, she along with another prisoner they fight their way off the island but crash in Antarctica. She escapes along with her brother. Claire also went through other bio-hazard outbreaks after that.



I will now compare the 4 ladies physical abilities:
As of the end of RE1 Rebecca Chambers is 5ft 3in tall and weighs 93lbs and is 18 years old. Since she is a trained law enforcement officer Rebecca probably has above average stamina. But her strength is that of a average 18 year old girl. Rebecca also has problems with more powerful weapons like a shotgun or a heavy pistol, as the recoil knocks her back a step. But being an trained law enforcement officer means she can use them with skill.
As of RE5 Jill Valentine is 5ft 8in tall and weighs 123lbs and is 35 years old. She is in her physical prime and it shows. She has great upper and lower body strength. And great stamina and endurance. He is so strong she can do a chin up with one arm, a back flip from her knees and fire high powered weapons with one arm. She also has great reaction time and speed with great agility. Jill most likely could be an Olympic athlete if she wanted too be one.
As of RE6 Ada Wong is 5ft 8in tall and is 39 years old. She is in her physical prime but on the downward part. Like Jill Ada has tremendous strength, especially in her legs. She an do various acrobatics with ease and use most heavy weapons as well. She also skilled in hand too hand combat like Jill is.
As RE:Rev2 Claire is 5ft 6.5in tall and is 116lbs and is 34 years old. Claire was trained by her brother so she probably has above average stamina and strength. She is skilled in hand too hand combat and is a capable of using heavy weapons. She is in her physical prime and is good shape.

The Verdict: Rebecca is obviously out of this category as is Claire. So only Ada and Jill remain. Each lady is about the same physically wise but Jill is 5 years younger then Ada. After thinking for some time, I give Jill the slight edge in physical abilities over Ada and a edge over Rebecca and Claire.

I will now compare each ladies weapons. In Resident Evil, you start most games with a pistol (or handgun) and get other weapons. Each lady will get one weapon only in this versus series and it will be a handgun ONLY.
Rebecca Chambers uses a Beretta 92FS "Samurai Edge". The gun features custom grips (wood and sythentic materials), heavier Brigdare slide, target sights, slide catch and a stainless steel barrel. It holds 15 rounds in its magazine. It fires 9mm rounds.
In RE5 Jill uses a standard Beretta 92FS. Nothing special about it. As it just left the production line.
In RE6 Ada is using a Steyr M9-A1. Though she uses it in the mercenaries mini-game. But she is seen holding in a cut scene. It hold 16 rounds in its magazine and fires 9mm rounds. Most powerful handgun in the game.
In RE:Rev2 Claire uses a Makarov PM. It holds 8 rounds in its magazine and fires 9mm rounds.


The Verdict. Adas gun hold more ammo in the magazine then most others. Cuts down on reloading. Rebeccas is more customised, which can make it easier too handle. Claire is at a severe disadvantage with her gun. Jill is just using a standard from the factory handgun. The breaking point is Ada has more stopping power. Which in a firefight means everything.
Ada gets the edge in terms of handguns.

Now i will judge the girls on equipment they will use.
Rebecca uses a mixing set in RE Zero. However it has no combat benefits. However she is wearing something that is of great benefit. She is wearing body armour. It gets used in RE1 when Wesker shots her at point blank range and she lives. So obviously it works on pistols. However body amour only works when the people shooting at you do not know you are wearing it. But it is of a great benefit too Rebecca.
Jill has lock picks. While not used for combat it can help you get out of the line of fire quickly or too hide somewhere and a locked door is in her way. She "Master of unlocking" after all.
Ada has a grapple gun. It can be used too help her reach high areas quickly or traverse places quickly.
Claire has nothing. No really, nothing.

The Verdict: While Jill and Ada have equipment that help with their mobility, Rebecca has something that will give her protection. Rebecca gets the edge over Ada, Jill and Claire.

There will be no X-factor for this Versus Series. Anything that would done with it every character is about the same.

The Final Verdict: The place where the ladies will battle it out is the Raccoon City Police Department. Each has been there and there will be no home field advantage. It will be as it was when RE2 and RE3 but with no zombies. Some doors are locked and some are barricaded and unable too be opened. In terms of ammo, each lady will have more then enough ammo too last them. Their objective would too find a key too the roof in the police chiefs office, get on the roof and radio for an evacuation chopper too land in the street outside the front of the police station. First too get too the chopper is the winner. No one will die in this.

Claire will be the first one out, due too her weapon mostly thought in a fist fight she can hold her own. Rebecca will be around for sometime, her weapon and body armor will help her last. Jill and Ada will mostly be the two remaining ladies remaining. Adas weapon will give her an edge but when it comes too hand too hand combat, Jill is younger and is more well rounded physically. Both Jill and Ada will have crap beat out of them but only one person can board that chopper.

I declare Jill Valentine the winner of this Versus Series.
