"{{Nihongo|'''G"'''|G|jī}} is the name given to any mutant created through the infection processes of the [[Golgotha Virus]], whether as the Patient Zero or their descendants. For convenience, only these descendent will be referred to as "G" here. These "G"s come in two varieties. The first is the immediate offspring of the Patient Zero, which mature from embryos into tumour-scarred humanoid forms if rejected by a human parasitic host. The second is their own descendants, which remain in embryonic form and cannot develop further.
   
  +
==History==
A '''"G"''' is the product of the [[G-virus]] which, when compatible with a host's DNA, uses humans as carriers for its offspring. Incompatible hosts will instead reject the seed, which will grow in its own way.
 
  +
The only known occurrence of Gs was during the [[Raccoon City Destruction Incident]] that took place in September 1998. [[Monica]], a researcher on the G-Virus R&D Team, was parasitised by a G-embryo that crawled down her throat when she was attacked by a Giant Moth in the [[NEST]]. Not genetically compatible, it rejected Monica and tore out of her chest. The creature matured into its adult form within minutes,<ref>''Resident Evil Outbreak'' (2003), scene: "[[Turn Table Goes Up]]".</ref> but was soon killed by a group of survivors on the surface.
 
==Forms==
 
===G-imago===
 
The ''G-imago'' is a small, slimy creature produced by adult "G". G-imago themselves can be created in either of two ways. A first-generation "G", such as [[William Birkin]] or [[Curtis Miller]], will hunt down humans it believes to have the potential of carrying its offspring as hosts to the parasites. If the carrier is of the same blood-type as the implanter, they are destined to merge with the parasite and evolve into an adult "G" similar to the original. G-imago that are not compatible with the host's blood-type will instead be rejected within a few minutes of implantation and tear through the host's chest to escape. They will then live independent of the host and mutate into a G-adult.
 
 
G-imago can also be reproduced by these failed "G", but do not have the ability to mutate any further than their young state.
 
 
===G-adult (compatible)===
 
"G" that are either compatible with their parasites or injected themselves with the G-virus when human will evolve into this state. These adults have the potential of mutating any number of times in order to take advantage of situations. No G-adults created through blood type-compatibility have been witnessed.
 
 
Both first-generation "G"s William Birkin and Curtis Miller showed an impressive ability to evolve into forms deemed somewhat necessary. In 1998, Birkin would mutate several times in an attempt to use the environment around it to defeat Leon S. Kennedy and Claire Redfield, or simply escape - more agile or resilient forms, for example.
 
 
A problem with these adults is that their evolution is not entirely coordinated - William Birkin failed to re-evolve any lost traits and, after constant attempts to repair his body after battle, he was rendered a mere blob.
 
   
  +
Dr. [[William Birkin]], who infected himself with the virus after being shot, hunted for human hosts to carry his embryos. The only confirmed parasitism was that of his own daughter, [[Sherry Birkin|Sherry]], who was a genetic match. Though he also interacted with [[Brian Irons]] and [[Ben Bertolucci]], among presumably others, it is not known if he parasitised them or simply killed them.
===G-adult (incompatible)===
 
G-adults mutating from G-imago incompatible with their hosts form into a somewhat-human appearance, with their back covered in tumoural growths (some of which evolving eyes on for protective purposes). G-adults will not evolve any further, though are able to reproduce. These G-imago however, do not possess the ability to mutate at all.
 
===Trivia===
 
*The evolution of the G-Embryo is similar to that of the evolution of the xenomorphs from the Alien franchise as the creature is implanted into the host and impregnated then the creature bursts out of the host killing it in the process and eventually grows into something bigger and stronger.
 
   
  +
During the events of the Raccoon City outbreak, the G-virus would leak into the city's sewer system. This resulted in G-infested cesspools forming in various areas and tunnels in the sewers. These G-infected areas developed tumorous growths that spawned multiple imperfect G forms and their embryos, which then ran rampant through the tunnels.<ref>''[[Resident Evil 2 (2019 game)|Resident Evil 2]]'' (2019), [[Bottom Waterway]]</ref>

"G" ( ?) is the name given to any mutant created through the infection processes of the Golgotha Virus, whether as the Patient Zero or their descendants. For convenience, only these descendent will be referred to as "G" here. These "G"s come in two varieties. The first is the immediate offspring of the Patient Zero, which mature from embryos into tumour-scarred humanoid forms if rejected by a human parasitic host. The second is their own descendants, which remain in embryonic form and cannot develop further.

History

The only known occurrence of Gs was during the Raccoon City Destruction Incident that took place in September 1998. Monica, a researcher on the G-Virus R&D Team, was parasitised by a G-embryo that crawled down her throat when she was attacked by a Giant Moth in the NEST. Not genetically compatible, it rejected Monica and tore out of her chest. The creature matured into its adult form within minutes,[1] but was soon killed by a group of survivors on the surface.

Dr. William Birkin, who infected himself with the virus after being shot, hunted for human hosts to carry his embryos. The only confirmed parasitism was that of his own daughter, Sherry, who was a genetic match. Though he also interacted with Brian Irons and Ben Bertolucci, among presumably others, it is not known if he parasitised them or simply killed them.

During the events of the Raccoon City outbreak, the G-virus would leak into the city's sewer system. This resulted in G-infested cesspools forming in various areas and tunnels in the sewers. These G-infected areas developed tumorous growths that spawned multiple imperfect G forms and their embryos, which then ran rampant through the tunnels.[2]
