"Maybe this is what I've always wanted: The world in flames, where only the dead remain."

Glenn Arias is a black market bioweapon salesman and an antagonist in Resident Evil: Vendetta.

Biography
A criminal wanted by Interpol, Arias filled in the gap in the bioterror playing field left by the dismantlement of TRICELL and Neo Umbrella, selling their leftover bio-weapons to criminals syndicates and terrorists across the world. He was also responsible for the creation of a type of B.O.W. that could distinguish friend from foe.

At an undisclosed time, a drone found Arias and dropped a bomb on him during his wedding to his wife, Sarah. The blast killed nearly all those present, including his wife save for Glenn himself, his friend Diego and his daughter Maria. Driven to madness at the loss of his wife, Arias swore vengeance at humanity, and developed the deadly A-Virus with the intent of eradicating mankind and "resetting" the world once and for all.

He was present in the mansion when it was infiltrated by B.S.A.A. SOU Captain Chris Redfield and the Mexican army unit. During the infiltration, Arias was confronted by Redfield after the death of his team, but Arias, taking advantage of the exhausted Chris who just jumped out of the window, easily bested him in combat and managed to escape when Chris was swarmed by zombies.

Arias ordered Maria and Diego to capture Rebecca Chambers after her university was attacked and the virus was unleashed at its grounds and realizing Chambers managed to survive and developed the vaccine to his virus.

He was later followed to New York by Chris and Leon Kennedy to save Rebecca where Arias and his allies initiated a viral outbreak within the city by unleashing a gaseous A-virus.

At his New York hideout, Arias is intrigued that Rebecca knows how his virus is able to make his B.O.W. attack anybody he chooses, but brushed off her statement that her comrades have the data to her vaccine that will put an end to his shady business. He later reveals to Rebecca the reason he wants her alive is because she looks strikingly similar to Sarah, and intent on making her his bride with Sarah's wedding ring. After proposing to Rebecca and getting rejected, Arias infected Rebecca with an even stronger strain created from her own blood.

Seeing Chris arrived at his headquarter to rescue Rebecca, Glenn Arias unleashed hordes after hordes of zombies to kill Chris. Chris however managed to kill most of the zombies from the 1st wave in an impressive display of shooting and assault rifle skills.

Seeing Chris successfully rescuing Rebecca, Glenn Arias confronted and battled Chris at the top of a skyscraper in both a gun battle and a close combat. After both men failed to shoot each other with their weapons, Arias closed in on Chris and attempted to hit Chris but was instead speared to the floor by Chris, both Chris and Arias fought each other to a standstill, with both men managing to disarm each other of his weapons. However Arias later gained an upper hand over Chris during the fight, landing several punches on Chris and shattering part of the glass floor. However, even the most powerful punch from Arias failed to knock Chris out as Chris quickly outlined that unfavorable situation and executed a Sumi Gaeshi Judo throw, causing Arias to smash through the glass mirror and falling to his apparent death, thus losing the fight against Chris. However, Arias survives and mutates into a tyrant-like creature after merging with Diego, his friend and bodyguard. Arias again fights Chris, managing to grab Chris and attempted to squeeze him to death but the timely arrival of Leon prevented this. Arias battled Leon but ended up getting kicked in the head by Leon in the process. Then Nadia and D.C arrived on the helicopter and Nadia killed Diego with a shot to the head from a rail gun. Arias attempted to bring down the helicopter but was rammed by Leon's motorcycle and injured by the subsequent explosions. As Arias hanged onto the building and the helicopter, he is finally killed by Chris when he shoots a grenade from a grenade launcher at Arias' heart and he dies in the explosion with all of his flesh, including his wedding ring, falling onto the ground.

In summary, Glenn Arias is a brilliant merchant, capable biologist who can engineer his own virus strains and an expert in close combat skill, displaying such talents in using rifle as a blunt weapon to block Chris's knife attack. Glenn Arias is also exceptionally good in unarmed combat, although his skill just wasn't good enough for him to defeat Chris Redfield.
