Biography

 * NOTE: The following section contains information that appears in the Resident Evil novelizations, which have been classified as non-canon from the primary movieverse.

Rain was extremely volatile and confrontational personality; she used to be a member of the Los Angeles Police Department and had to prove her worth to the other members because of prejudices against her gender, thinking that a woman would not be good a policeman.

She was given an offer by Major Timothy Cain to join the force. She accepted due to her gender keeping her from being accepted in any SWAT teams. Rain was one of only two female members of One's commando team that went to The Hive to deactivate the homicidal Red Queen, the other being Olga Danilova.

The Hive
Bitch isn't standing now!

She was the group's most skilled marksman, and had at least one close friend in J.D. Salinas. She did not like Chad Kaplan, the only member of the group who had never seen action, and grew to blame him for the deaths caused by the Red Queen when he thought she had no more defensive abilities.

She, Matt Addison, and J.D. encountered the first zombie, who they thought was a crazed survivor. The infected woman attacked Rain, and Rain was bitten savagely on the hand, thus becoming infected with the t-Virus. She and J.D. soon shot the woman several times but scored no headshots, leaving the zombie still standing.

Rain and Matt Addison were attacked by a horde of zombies while waiting for their teammates. She sustained more bites over the course of the survivors' escape from the Hive, speeding up the rate of infection.

A tough young woman from the beginning, Rain was still determined to prove her worth as a valuable asset to the team of survivors. She taunted the zombies often and killed many of them, but was bit again when hesitating upon seeing a zombified J.D. After he bit her, she finally decided to put him out of his misery.

At the brink of leaving the Hive, they were forced to restart the Red Queen in the hopes that she would provide them with the information necessary to escape. The Red Queen promised to provide them with the four-digit access code only on the condition that Alice would kill Rain, which would keep the infection from escaping the Hive.

The Queen conjectured that the time elapsed since Rain's infection would drastically lessen the effectiveness of the serum, thus she would not allow Alice and the remaining survivors to leave, even though the anti-virus remained in a suitcase on a platform outside of the room they were trapped in.

Alice refused to comply with the Red Queen and silenced the Queen's urging to murder Rain with the blow of an Axe to the security monitor she was speaking from. They would have remained locked in the room had not Kaplan (who had been thought dead) fired the Queen's circuitry, which unlocked all doors in the facility.

Death
Rain and the other survivors managed to reach the train. Alice administered the anti-virus to her and hoped it would work. However, their troubles were not over yet, as they were forced to fight with the now mutated Licker. During their fight, Rain transformed into a zombie and lunged to attack, and Matt was forced to shoot her in the head, killing her instantly.

Retribution
Michelle Rodriguez (alongside Colin Salmon and Oded Fehr) will reprise her role as Rain in Resident Evil: Retribution as a possible enemy fighting against Alice and the remaining human survivors. Unlike her comrades, there are two clones of Rain, who of which have been dubbed "Good Rain" and "Bad Rain". According to an interview with the producers and director Paul W.S. Anderson, she, One and Carlos Olivera were "brought back from the dead" by Umbrella through means of cloning.

It is said that she will inject herself with Plaga parasites to gain superhuman strength and a flashback detailing Rain's life prior to the outbreak, will be revealed.
