Irons made a career in the Raccoon Police Department, and by early 1996 reached the rank of Chief of Police. This position put him in a very close relationship with Umbrella USA, a company which was not only a major employer in the city but was also performing top-secret military bioweapons research.

"Sherry!? I've been looking everywhere for you Sherry...Brave little girl to leave her house in the middle of this mess..."
— Irons after confronting Sherry Birkin and Claire Redfield at the Parking Garage of the Raccoon Police Station

Brian Irons (ブライアン・アイアンズ Buraian Aianzu?) was a Raccoon City police officer and Chief of Police of the Raccoon Police Department until 1998. Chief Irons had a violent history with women and is suspected of having been a serial killer. Irons was deeply involved in corporate corruption like other city officials, and took bribes from Umbrella U.S.A. to keep the company out of investigations. During the 1998 Raccoon City Destruction Incident, Irons suffered a mental breakdown and began killing fellow officers and refugees, and was killed violently either by Dr. William Birkin or a G parasite. Irons was a serial killer, though due to his position in the RPD and the destruction of the city, these murders were never investigated.

Biography

Early life

Before his police career, Irons is known to have gone through a university education. He was put under psychiatric examination after two incidents in which he was accused of violent aggression and sexual assault towards female students. Due to his excellent academic performance, however, these incidents were not criminally investigated.[2][note 1]

Chief of Police

Irons made a career in the Raccoon Police Department, and by early 1996 reached the rank of Chief of Police. This position put him in a very close relationship with Umbrella USA, a company which was not only a major employer in the city but was also performing top-secret military bioweapons research. This research went against the 1972 Bioweapons Convention, and involved illegal human testing. Every month starting from April 1996,[3] Chief Irons received between $1,500 and $15,000 from Dr. Annette Birkin, wife of Dr. William Birkin, which he used to fund his art habits, which he would place across the Raccoon Police Station.[4] Irons was also placed in charge of the Raccoon City Orphanage to disguise Umbrella's use of child test subjects. On the 6th and 16th of every month, he visited Umbrella's top-secret facilities to hold meetings with Umbrella's Raccoon City facility heads and was expected to use the police force to keep them out of investigation if needed. Under Chief Irons' watch, Umbrella donations led to the creation of the Special Tactics and Rescue Service, an elite law enforcement team comprised of scientists and ex-military personnel who could use their expertise to solve cases the rest of the RPD was not qualified or experienced to handle. Led by Dr. Albert Wesker, an Umbrella intelligence agent, S.T.A.R.S. was effectively Umbrella's private army. Whether or not Chief Irons knew Dr. Wesker was an Umbrella agent is unknown.

Taxidermy room (12)

Irons's secret Taxidermy Room.

Chief Irons harboured violent tendencies throughout his life, and did not hold these back during his time with the RPD. Irons is known to have threatened and committed a number of murders while with the RPD, though the identity of these victims is largely unknown. The earliest known possible victim was his secretary, who he hired in April 1998 and who disappeared the following June after uncovering evidence of bribes.[5] An Umbrella sewer facility manager was almost killed in August, when Irons threatened him with a gun.[6] In August and September, a total of eight young women were snatched from the streets and apparently murdered in the city's sewers, though no bodies were found by RPD search parties. All were described in local papers as being unmarried blonde women between the ages of 18 and 23.[7]

Mansion Incident

In May 1998 the mountainous Arklay Laboratory fell to a t-Virus outbreak, and in spite of its security personnel, mutants escaped and began killing a number of hikers and Raccoon City denizens on the city outskirts. Irons became highly stressed as a result of these attacks and Umbrella's failure to counter them, and was continually briefed by the Birkins as to the developments as well as their ongoing strain with the company.

Though S.T.A.R.S. survivors Chief Redfield, Jill Valentine, Barry Burton, Rebecca Chambers and Brad Vickers bore witness in various degrees to Umbrella's research and uncovered the nature of the attacks, most of the evidence was lost in the explosion. On the advice of Dr. William Birkin, Chief Irons had S.T.A.R.S. shut down to prevent them investigating the company and kept a close eye on their activities.[8] While it was too late to stop them telling the townspeople about their experiences, it was believed that the quiet destruction of left-over evidence would prevent anyone believing them.[9]

Raccoon City Destruction Incident and Death

By September 1998, the t-Virus made its way into the city through a number of channels. At the start of the month, Chief Irons' side of the deal worked the same, receiving a $10,000 bribe to prevent any police investigation of the city's underground, which was becoming an inevitability.[9] Things quickly began to change over the month, when the Birkins reported their suspicions of a plot by Umbrella HQ to recover Golgotha from their lab.

On 23 September, Irons was alerted to the leak of the t-Virus into the city's water supply. Overcome with this news, Irons finally broke down mentally. Believing himself to be infected, he began giving confusing orders to the police officers to ensure that the entire precinct die with him.

She was killed on the night of 29 September. Though accounts differ as to if she was killed in the Raccoon Police Station or the Raccoon City Orphanage, it is agreed he planned to turn her into taxidermy.

RE2make Chief Irons Death

"G" embryo bursts out of Irons chest.

Accounts as to how Chief Irons died are contradictory. In one account, he abducted the Birkins' daughter, Sherry, from the police station intent on retrieving her pendant. He forced another survivor, Claire Redfield, to bring the pendant to the orphanage when he realised she had dropped it. While there, he caught Sherry trying to escape and was splashed in the face with formaldehyde. While chasing her he was attacked by William, who had mutated from Golgotha infection, and planted a G-embryo in his chest. When Redfield arrived with the pendant, he was killed in front of her when the embryo bursts off of Irons' chest. In two other accounts, Irons absconded from the Raccoon Police Station with Warren's body to his killing room. There he was attacked by Dr. Birkin, either tearing him apart or implanting him with an embryo. In all three accounts he died in front of Redfield.

Notes
  1. While the English localization identifies Irons as a rapist, the original Japanese script is much vaguer, only describing Irons as being involved in acts of violence.
