Allyson

Help! Somebody Help Me!

Allyson is a minor character that appeared in Resident Evil 5.

Biography
Allyson arrived in Kijuju around November with her boyfriend. There, she met Adam; a miner. During a date, a man in sunglasses was complaining in the bar over foreigners living in the region, and that the Kijuju natives must drive out the "invaders". His views led to a bar fight in which Adam and Allyson escaped and hid. The next morning, Allyson told Adam that she would be leaving with her boyfriend.

Attempting to Escape
While Kijuju began to shift into madness and Adam began to ostracize himself within his home, Allyson returned to him again for protection. Sleepless, fearful of the situation that had presented itself and unable to find her boyfriend; she takes up residence with Adam. However, as the situation outside began to worsen, the relationship between the two became strained with Allyson becoming frustrated with Adam's seeming lack of interest in their escape. During the night, Allyson escaped into the streets of Kijuju searching for escape on her own leaving a regretful Adam alone with his fears.

Capture
After Chris and Sheva heard DeChant calling for backup, they witnessed her capture. She was thrown on the floor behind a fence as the two watched. She tried to crawl away, but was grabbed from the hair by a Caucasian Majini and dragged away. Allyson and the Majini had disappeared from view by the time the two BSAA members arrived behind the fence.

Death
Later she was seen bursting through a balcony door and screaming for help, only to be pulled back inside by the same caucasian Majini who captured her earlier. The agents hurried up to the building to save her. She fell against Chris, seemingly in exhaustion. As Chris attempted to comfort her, Allyson gripped a strap on his back as the parasite expelled from her mouth reaching toward Chris and wrapping its petal like lips around his face. Sheva shot at the now infected Allyson, she jumped back, evading the bullet, and then went on to attack the two of them.

Her body was killed by the agents with a gory headshot, but then a Cephalo-type Plagas erupted from her throat (this was the first Cephalo encountered in the game series, and the first that the two agents have ever seen). Her corpse, still controlled by the Plagas, continued to attack the two; After the agents had done enough damage to the Plaga, it exploded, and her body dropped, never to rise.

Appearance
Dressing as though of upper or middle class; she had long clean blonde hair, clear white skin, and wore a silk dress and high heels. Upon death she had an ivory relief, which can sell for a high price.

Strategies
She counts as a miniboss, in the same vein as the Chainsaw and Big Man Majini but she does not have more health than most other Majini (One handgun bullet is enough to blow off her head) and she still has normal strength. After the Cephalo (Worm-Like razor that emerges from her throat, covering her head) appears she regains her health and now she has a stronger, longer ranged attack. She can be a bit difficult for first time players.
 * To keep her from getting closer shoot her in the leg, this will stop her movement and keep her from grabbing you. (This only works BEFORE the Plagas emerges from her throat).
 * Keep your distance because once the Cephalo appears, she will have a long ranged attack.
 * Once the Cephalo appears, shoot it, not her body. The Cephalo is the actual parasite, shooting the body rather than it will do little to no damage.
 * Once the Cephalo appears she can move and attack at the same time, and now shooting her in the leg won’t halt her. Keep shooting the parasite and keep a distance.
 * Do note that soon after the fight has started, Majini will start to appear through each of the two doors leading into the building, disposing of her quickly, or getting into a more open space is recommended.
 * You can prevent fighting the Cephalo if you break her neck.

Trivia

 * Allyson's role had been a mystery stemming from her first appearance in an early image of Chris holding her body as she lean weakened against him. It was highly speculated on her actual role, many believing her to be Sherry Birkin from Resident Evil 2. or a clone of Alexia Ashford from Resident Evil: Code Veronica.
