Further notes

The Hypnos-T Type was an experimental model of Tyrant seen at Sheena Island's "Tyrant Plant". It is named after the Greek God of Sleep, and the accompanying word "Υπνος".

History

The Hypnos project was the brainchild of Commander Vincent Goldman, a eugenicist and fierce Umbrella supremacist. The main variation between this Tyrant and other models was the inclusion in its genetic make-up of the Hypnos gene, a modified genetic strand that, when implanted into an organism, would kill the weaker cells through natural selection, leaving only the strongest to keep the organism ongoing and encouraging the reproduction of the better cells. The process was repeated hundreds of thousands of times day and night for three weeks.[1][excerpt 1]

A neurotransmitter known as "β Hetero Nonserotonin" was also necessary for its creation.

Activation

Once awakened, it proceeded to kill either Andy Holland, UT Commander, or the commander of the Sheena Island base, Vincent Goldman, depending on the ending the player gets. Either is killed while while talking to detective Ark Thompson, before turning its attention to him. After a brief conflict in a small corridor, the creature was knocked unconscious.

Unbeknownst to Ark, the creature was still alive and continuing to mutate. These mutations granted it greater muscle mass, much larger claws on its left hand, an enlarged jaw, and sharp teeth. Nearly defeated in a second encounter with Ark on a Helipad, the creature began to mutate again.

Hypnos-T Type fought a long, grueling battle with Thompson, but in the end it was destroyed when it leapt upon Thompson's escape helicopter, at which point a sidewinder missile was launched into its abdomen. Seconds later, another missile was launched against it, detonating both and killing it once and for all.

    "タイプの異なる多くの細胞を闘わせ、 生き残ったもの同士をまたぶつけ合う……勝ち残った細胞の持つ優秀な遺伝子を選び出し、 タイラントの遺伝子に組み込むことで最強のB.O.W.を造り出す……ビンセント司令官は独自に新型B.O.W.の開発計画を進めていた。約3週間にわたって数十万回もの遺伝子選抜が行なわれた。昼夜の区別なしに続く実験に、 科学者たちが睡魔に襲われた一瞬のうちに、 とある細胞が他の細胞をすべて淘汰する。科学者たちはこの細胞の遺伝子をヒュプノス(眠りの神)と名付けた。この計画によって従来のタイラントよりさらに小型で強力をB.O.W.の試作品が完成したのだ。"
