Kennedy and Claire Redfield who were trying to escort Sherry to safety.
Biography
Mission Preparation
Following the demise of the UBCS, Article 12 of Umbrella's Internal Emergency Procedures was enacted, and all materials and personnel still within the city were placed under the command of Colonel Sergei Vladimir.[1] When it was discovered Delta Force had infiltrated Umbrella's facilities, Col. Vladimir prepared an SH-60B Seahawk for B.O.W. deployment.
Raccoon City Destruction Incident
T-00 was dropped near the Raccoon Police Station with its own assignments. It had two orders: first, to eliminate any police survivors,[1] and second, to locate the G-Virus.[2][excerpt 1]
Exploring the station, he located and killed Ben Bertolucci. T-00 then ran into survivors Claire Redfield and Leon S. Kennedy, and stalked both of them through the police station. T-00 managed to grab Leon when the officer tried to exit the parking garage, but was briefly incapacitated when he was hit by a SWAT van driven by Ada Wong, before the van exploded, allowing Leon and Ada to flee. He then briefly pursued Claire when she came through the parking garage, chasing her through the streets of Raccoon City. Following her to the nearby orphanage, T-00 ambushed Claire and Sherry Birkin. Chasing them through the basement of the orphanage, T-00 managed to corner them within an elevator leading to the sewers. While attempting to tear the elevator open, T-00 was ambushed and seriously injured by a mutated Dr. William Birkin.
Whether T-00 survived the encounter with Dr. Birkin or not is unknown.[note 1] However, a T-103 with similar orders to T-00 was encountered within the sewers under the station by Ada, then proceeded to harass Kennedy in the NEST's Greenhouse. It later mutated into its Super Tyrant form after suffering serious injury as the facility began to self-destruct. It battled Kennedy on a cargo elevator, and was killed by an anti-tank rocket thrown to him by Wong, which destroyed its entire upper body.

Further notes
- T-00 has been given a number of nicknames over the years. Claire refers to it as "Mr. X" in the novelization of Resident Evil 2, along with "Doctor Evil". "Mr. X" was also used in other U.S. merchandising for Resident Evil 2, such as action figures and comic books. In the English version of Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, it was nicknamed "Trenchy" by Leon, though he calls him "Coated Bastard" (コート野郎) in the Japanese script.
- In the original Resident Evil 2, once the T-00 is downed players will be able to pick up ammunition on certain occasions by examining his body. This only works in the story mode.
- The inclusion of a fedora to the T-00's outfit in the remake was to emphasize its intended purpose for covert operations. The T-00 was also made physically shorter for the same purposes, as it now appears more human from a distance.[3]
- In the remake, the T-00 has a more tempered personality. During its pursuit of the player, it'll frequently crack its neck and show subtle signs of irritation when presented with resistance or receiving damage. This temper is shown if the player shoots off his hat, causing him to charge for the player, instead of his usual walking pace. While in its Super Tyrant form, it will roar furiously at the player multiple times during their final encounter with it.
- In the 2019 remake, there are technically two T-00's. While the first one is killed by William Birkin, a second appears in the sewers, presumedly tasked with recovering the G-virus sample carried by HUNK's team, before making his way to the NEST to try and recover the G-virus sample there, while also attacking Leon and Ada.
- T-00 originally only chased and followed the character used in the B Scenario and would not be seen entirely by the other character in the A Scenario.
- Additionally, the T-00 would lose its coat after falling in a smelting pit. In Claire B, the Tyrant is chasing Sherry Birkin for the G-Virus within her pendant, allowing Claire to toss it into the smelting pot with the Tyrant joining the pendant shortly. In Leon B, Leon is cornered by the Tyrant and is rescued by Ada, who fires multiple shots to the Tyrant's face, eventually causing to fall into the pot, but it is able to wound Ada severely.
- The T-00's final encounter would also be near the emergency train itself, obstructing the B Scenario's character from boarding the train after they finish connecting the plugs to open the railway's gate. Like the remake, the Tyrant would be blown to bits by a Rocket Launcher tossed in by Ada Wong.

- ↑ Due to the remake's contradictory nature, it is uncertain if these are two separate T-103s, or if Claire's encounter is non-canon. Nor is it certain how these relate to other tellings of the same story by Noboru Sugimura and Shōtarō Suga.
