TerraSave

Prime universe
(Capcom's primary storyline)

"Because 'Terr' doesn't have to end with 'rist.'"
— 2011 motto

TerraSave is a non-governmental human rights organization introduced in Resident Evil: Degeneration. Claire Redfield happens to be one of the prominent members of TerraSave, along with Curtis Miller.

Functions

Its primary functions are to provide aid, both through supplies and manpower, during bioterrorism and medical-related incidents, monitoring medication distribution, ensuring safe drug development and research facilities, in addition to organizing mass protests against corporations and governments.^[1] Its members have overwhelming political and public support. Much of the organization's other functions are unknown; however, it is known to be linked to several government-related organizations (e.g., the U.N. World Health Organization, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, etc.) Additionally, TerraSave took in children who were orphaned by Bio-Terrorism as its wards.

History

TerraSave was formed as a result of 1998 Raccoon City Destruction Incident, when it became clear that governments and corporations covered up man-made disasters in efforts to gain profits.^{^[1]}

Terragrigia Panic (2004)

TerraSave members were present at the site of the outbreak before its eventual destruction. Among those deployed were Gina Foley and Neil Fisher, the latter of which rescued Natalia Korda, then a 3-year-old child, after her parents had died.

WilPharma Scandal (2005)

TerraSave originally came into conflict with WilPharma Corporation when one of its members and an anti-WilPharma extremist, Doctor Curtis Miller, was publicly arrested following heated allegations of WilPharma conducting illegal experiments. Because there was no proof at the time, TerraSave officially disassociated itself from Miller. Later, however, TerraSave found photos of WilPharma's latest human test subjects; the result of their clinical tests on humans conducted in India. All of the victims had been exposed to the t-Virus. As a result, TerraSave demanded that WilPharma immediately release the results of their tests. TerraSave's scathing accusations hurled at WilPharma caused the company's stock fall sharply and its public relations degraded to the point it had civilian members establishing picket lines outside it's Harvardville facility and the local airport (in the hope to confront the politician Senator Ron Davis; who gave his full and questionable support to the corporation, and had arrived for a pharmaceutical conference).

Harvardville (2005)

In 2005, in an effort to save WilPharma, one of its employees, Frederic Downing, unleashed the virus on different areas around the world as a twisted sales pitch to General Miguel Grandé, the head of the Republic of Bajirib and a sponsor of terrorism. In India, Downing himself acted as the black market broker who supplied the virus, with the company claiming its "human testing" was really an attack made by terrorists who somehow got a hold of the virus. This would allow WilPharma to regain its political standing as the U.S. Government, using the covertly-developed vaccine, solving the crisis with a minimum amount of casualties. To restore its public image, Downing also unleashed the t-Virus on the Harvardville Airport, which would in turn be crushed by the U.S. Marine Corps protected by WilPharma's vaccine, and the outbreak itself would be blamed on Miller. Then WilPharma would claim the hundreds of civilian lives were lost due to TerraSave effectively backing them into a corner and forcing them to withhold the vaccine from the nearby population, making TerraSave appear to be at fault for the outbreak's casualties.

The plan would ultimately come undone when TerraSave member Claire Redfield, with the help of U.S. agent Leon S. Kennedy, exposed Downing's scheme, which resulted in the bankruptcy of WilPharma.

Kijuju Autonomous Zone (2009)

TerraSave members were present in Kijuju Autonomous Zone to help the civilians after the Kijuju Autonomous Zone Incident. Among those deployed were Gabriel Chavez and Pedro Fernandez, where they reportedly had to run away from the infected in the area.

HQ Attack and Fear Experiments (2011)

In 2011, the NGO's headquarters were attacked by an unknown paramilitary force. Claire Redfield and some of her co-workers, including new hire, Moira Burton were kidnapped and taken to a deserted prison on an island. The kidnapped members are used as test subjects by a bioterrorist who is calling herself the Overseer. This was later discovered to be an act of betrayal perpetrated by TerraSave manager, Neil Fisher, who secretly held allegiance to the now defunct F.B.C. With the aid of Barry Burton and the BSAA, Claire and Moira survive the incident.

Idol Survival investigation (2014)

TerraSave was eventually deployed to Sonido de Tortuga Island in order to investigate suspicious activity being reported on the island. The operatives included Claire Redfield and Inéz Diaco.
