Derek C. Simmons (file)

Derek C. Simmons, 46 years old, is an aide to the president of the United States. He is a ruthless perfectionist, a personality well disposed to rising to a high echelon of power in government. He is the current head of The Family, a secret fraternity of powerful movers and shakers that have manipulated the development of the Western world for centuries. This organization will do whatever is necessary to ensure stability and world order. Fearing the ensuing chaos that would result from President Benford's plan to reveal the truth about the Raccoon City Incident, Mr. Simmons orchestrates his own bioterror attack where the president would be but one of many casualties.
