Chris Redfield is a video game character appearing in the Resident Evil video game series. He is a main character in the original Resident Evil and Resident Evil Code: Veronica, and has also appeared in the various comic book adaptations and novelizations of the games.

Background

A strong and intelligent young man from New York, Chris originally served as a pilot for the United States Air Force. After being discharged for insubordination in 1995 - specifics are never given - he descended into life as a drifter. It is rumored that his discharge was due to defiance of orders in order to save the life of a comrade. After meeting Barry Burton, he was recruited for the newly-created S.T.A.R.S. Alpha Team. Marked by his skills as a marksman, Chris serves as the team's pointman.

Mansion incident

In July, 1998, Alpha Team was deployed to Raccoon Forest to investigate the disappearance of Bravo Team. In their search of the area, Alpha Team discovered Bravo Team's helicopter and the remains of their pilot. Shortly afterwards, the team was attacked by zombie dogs. After witnessing the death of fellow member Joseph Frost, Alpha Team was abandoned by their pilot and the remaining members fled into a nearby mansion.

Upon further investigation of the residence, Chris and the others discovered that the entire mansion was infested with undead beings and mutants. Moreover, the team also discovered the remains of their Bravo Team compatriots. Chris met with a survivor of Bravo Team, a medic named Rebecca Chambers. With her help, Chris managed to overcome some of the tougher obstacles in the mansion.

Together, they discovered that the mansion was actually a front for a top-secret facility owned by the Umbrella Corporation that has been harvesting secret "Bio-Organic Weapons" developed from the T-Virus. In addition, their team's captain, Albert Wesker, intentionally led S.T.A.R.S. to the mansion in order to test the BOWs performances. However, it seemed that Wesker was taken out by his own creation, the Tyrant, who went after Chris. After defeating the Tyrant, Rebecca activated the self-destruct system and the two escaped along with fellow survivors, Jill and Barry.

After returning to the Raccoon Police Department, Chris and the remainder of S.T.A.R.S. requested a full-scale investigation of Umbrella's activities. The team's request was denied by the chief of police, Brian Irons, and very few people believed their unlikely story. Without any other alternatives left, Chris and the others travelled to Europe to investigate Umbrella's main headquarters,and remained hidden until December of 1998.

Rockfort Island/Antarctic Lab incident

Chris would remain underground until December 1998, when he received an e-mail from Anti-Umbrella supporter Leon S. Kennedy, informing him about his sister Claire's captivity on Rockfort Island, an Umbrella-owned island. Upon his arrival on the island, Chris met with the prison's warden, Rodrigo Juan Raval, who knew of Claire's whereabouts. Rodrigo was killed shortly thereafter, after being swallowed (and vomited back up) by a giant worm. Chris also met with his former commander, Wesker, who was surprisingly alive and well despite his apparent death during the mansion incident. Wesker now held a grudge against Chris for foiling his plans during that time.

After narrowly surviving his encounter with Wesker, Chris managed to be reunited with his sister. Together, they confronted and defeated the true head of the Ashford clan, Alexia Ashford. The Redfield siblings escaped from the island through a jet, but not before Chris was attacked once more by Wesker. The battle reached a deadlock, and realizing neither had time to finish the confrontation, both went to their own escape routes. The two have vowed to defeat one another, solidifying their rivalry.

Afterwards, Chris continued his Anti-Umbrella activities until Umbrella's shutdown by the American government. His current doings are unknown at this time.
