Linda was an Umbrella Corporation researcher. She worked in the commercial Umbrella facility in Raccoon City along with Carter.

Biography

During the outbreak, Linda returned to her laboratory to retrieve a sample of an experimental reagent, AT1521, to counteract the effects of the t-Virus.[1] Unfortunately, a lock down occurred in the building shortly after her arrival, cutting off Linda; Carter, and a group of survivors off from the exit,[2] trapping them in with a group of vicious Hunters.[3]

To protect themselves, Carter released a Tyrant stored in the lab and reprogrammed it to take on the Hunters. Linda was uneasy, but went along with the plan, which turned out good at first, but proved to have disastrous consequences.[4] The Tyrant rebelled, killing Carter, destroying the reagent sample, and knocking Linda off of a catwalk.[5]

She was later discovered by the other survivors alive, in the facility's waterworks,[6] before being washed down the sewers.[7] Despite this, she was able to make it to the Apple Inn, where she was shot in the leg by a U.B.C.S. mercenary named Arnold, under supervision of Tommy.[8]

With the help of the same survivors from before, Linda managed to escape from Raccoon City shortly before it was destroyed during Mission Code XX.[9] After the incident, she and Yoko Suzuki testified against Umbrella in court, contributing to its eventual downfall.[10]

Trivia

  • Linda's name and her occupation are actually recycled concepts from Resident Evil 1.5 concerning Ada Wong's original design.
  • She shares the original fate of Marvin Branagh in Resident Evil 1.5 by getting shot in the leg. She can be saved by getting to Rodriguez's chopper in time or after defeating the Nyx. However, Marvin's fate in Resident Evil 1.5 is unknown.
