CHECK
ALL ITEMS
When you obtain a new item, always remember to look at
it with the "Check" command on the status
screen. Remember, it's always best to rotate the item
so you can check it from different angles.
TRY TO PUSH OBJECTS
If you face an object and then press and hold up on
the directional button, sometimes you will be able to
push it.
You may find hidden rooms and items this way.
USE THE QUICK TURN
You can turn 180 degrees instantly by pressing the
Cancel button while holding the directional button
down. This is a very effective move when you attack
the enemy and then want to turn around and run.
USE THE MAP SCREEN
When you are lost or are unsure of what to do, check
the map screen. You can easily tell where you've never
been and can see which doors you have unlocked.
CLIMB/DESCEND
You can climb/descend some objects. To do this, face
the object and then push the Action button.
SECURITY BOXES
The items you store in a Security Box in the prison
area cannot be accessed through an Item Box. Make sure
you remove all important items from a Security Box
before exiting a room.
I CAN'T TAKE THE GOLD LUGERS FROM THE PROJECTION ROOM.
You cannot release the trap by yourself. After certain
events occur, you will be able to release the trap and
obtain the Gold Lugers.
I CAN'T ENTER THE BIO-EXPERIMENT ROOM
Once the shutter near the bio-experiment room shuts,
you can't open it until the ventilation process
completes due to the in-room air pollution problems.
I CAN'T CLIMB THE LADDER IN THE BEDROOM.
You will need to place a pair of items onto the two
music boxes. Then you will have to...
I CAN'T SEND LOADS PROPERLY WITH THE SORTER
The sorter judges which room each load will be sent to
by an item that is posted on the load. You should
check an already sorted load in the room you would
like to send your load to and then...
CHARACTER SWITCHING
When your player character changes, make sure to leave
enough weapons and ammo for the others.
REUSED ITEMS
While you are playing as Chris, there's an occasion
where you'll need to use the same item you used when
you played as Claire. If you get stuck, remember what
you did in Claire's story.
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF TRAPS
During the game, there are many traps that may
jeopardize your life. These traps can possibly work to
your advantage if you know how to use them...

File 05-Pass Number Memo --
The
emergency door lock system in the biology experiment
room can be released with the 4 digit pass number. I
hope you haven't forgotten about that already. I have
just received an order from the system administrator
requesting us to change the pass number periodically.
What bothers me is that you often lose important
memos, pass numbers or even chemicals... So, in an
attempt to solve that problem, I came up with an idea.
You know the red human skeleton picture at the back of
the biology experiment room? I have decided to use the
number signed on the picture as the pass number. If
you happen to lose the memo, just look at the picture.
Well, I don't think you would ever need to use the
emergency pass number, anyway. But just in case, now
you know. Take it easy, Mr. Careless!

File 06-Memo to New Master --
Sir
Alfred,
Congratulations on your succession as master of the
Ashford family. I hereby present you with an
earthenware vase, according to the Ashford family
tradition. As you may know, this tradition first began
when a butler presented a golden tea cup as a
commemorative to Veronica. As founder of the Ashford
family, her intelligence and beauty are legendary. The
second and third masters, Stanley and his son Thomas,
were also presented with similar tea cups. It was
their hope to achieve glory as Veronica did before
them. The position of family master then shifted from
Sir Thomas to his twin brother Sir Arthur. It then
went to Sir Edward, your grandfather. That was when
the Ashford family enjoyed its golden age. It was also
Sir Edward's achievement that established the large
chemical enterprise, Umbrella Inc. However, when Sir
Edward passed away and your father Sir Alexander
succeeded the position, the glorious Ashford family
gradually began to sink...I sincerely hope that the
Ashford family regains its glory with your guidance,
just as this vase continues to shine eternally.

The Ashford family's
most important secret is kept at this lab. As a safety
precaution, I have installed a self-destruct device in
the control room and have placed the activation code
inside the computer. Once inputted, all door locks
will be released to provide easy access to escape
routes. By using the elevator that directly connects
to the hangar, one should be able to escape from the
lab easily. Please remember that I have used the name
of my beautiful ancestor for the activation code.
Glory to the Ashfords,
Alexander Ashford

File 08-Alloy Report --
Although we planned
to utilize the enhanced anti-decay alloy called
"Deploid" to create the storage capsule of
the new B.O.W., we have had to cancel the plan. This
is primarily based upon the fact that despite its
excellent resistance to all kinds of liquid including
strong acid, it easily dissolves when soaked with a
mixture of the two chemicals, "Clement A"
and "Clement E". Due to the lethal nature of
the new B.O.W., we cannot be too careful in choosing
the material for their storage capsule. We have
instead decided to use Deploid to create the plate
portion of the "Eagle Plate", which shines
in indigo-blue.
CLEMENT INFORMATION
The a type is used for gun maintenance and possesses
no conspicuous characteristics. However, the E type
will change its color to blue at a certain
temperature.
(It is an odd coincidence that the temperature is
exactly the same as the date of completion of this
training facility.)
Based upon our analysis of the E type, we believe that
Clement possesses more features. As new information is
learned, we will update this file.

This room stinks of death. Based upon the information
I've found, I believe that I'm far south of the
equator.
Lucky for me that Bob in the bunk below me, is one of
those interesting types of guys...
May 16th
Today Bob told some crazy story of why he was put this
place with me. Bob said that he used to be an
attendant of the head of this place. This
"boss" named Alfred supposedly placed him in
here because of a tiny little mistake.
What does that mean? What's going to happen to me?
May 20th
Without warning, a group of military men took Bob to
the building behind the guillotine stand. At midnight,
I'll sneak out of here to see him. I've been hearing
that anyone taken to that building never comes back.
On top of that, there are these REALLY large plastic
bags constantly being removed from that place. I'd
better pray for Bob...
May 21st
I was wrong. I shouldn't have gone there. What is
going on in there?! All I could hear was some insanely
creepy laughter and the sound of Bob screaming! I
don't know what to do. I can't stop thinking about
it...
Is that going to happen to me?! I can't let it... I
just can't...
May 27th
Since my last entry, all of my fellow inmates have
been taken to that building! I know that I am next...
It's obvious that we were all here to be used as
Alfred's guinea pigs. There's no way out! What am I
going to do?!...

File 10-Anatomist's Note --
There is a demon in my mind. I can't control the
fierce impulses that the demon sometimes drives me to
act upon. It is a brutal ceremony. With the demon next
to me, I enjoy watching people agonize in pain,
screaming and convulsing repeatedly as they die...
But, Sir Alfred was kind enough to acknowledge me, and
has given me the facilities, chemicals, and
"equipment" necessary to study everything. I
must never betray Sir Alfred's kindness. It is
especially critical that no one discovers the sacred
place that only he and I know about. I swear, the
basement of this medical building will be kept secret.
Of course, I keep the key to the sacred place
with me at all times... Even if an outsider sees it,
they will never be able to tell that it is the key. I
must remember that my life ends when I lose Sir
Alfred's trust.
--
File 11-Secretary's Note --
Four years have passed since I began serving Sir
Alfred. He doesn't trust anyone! Even though I am his
attendant, I am still strictly prohibited from
entering his private house! What is his problem
anyway?! They say he lives with his twin sister Alexia
in his private house on the hill. Occasionally, I've
seen someone standing by the window of the house. It
might have been Alexia, whose extreme beauty is often
talked about. I once asked Sir Alfred about
this, but it only enraged him. Even though I am his
attendant, he will not show me any lenience. If I ask
about her again, I could put my life at risk. After
all, it is a mystery why he so desperately tries to
keep his private life with Alexia a secret.

12-D.I.J. Diary --
December 27th
Today, a woman in red was taken to my home on Rockfort
Island. I wonder what she did to deserve such a fate?
I've lived here for so long and have seen so many
people taken to the prison, but rarely have I seen
someone released alive... Out of nowhere, these
strange soldiers appeared with weapons in their hands.
I suppose that the master of the island is being
attacked by an opposing organization. Since I was
worried about that woman in red, I ran to her prison
but she was not there. I wonder if she is related to
the attack on the island... When I reached the
military training facility, the master of Rockfort
Island was chasing the woman in red. I got careless
and was almost killed under a shutter. However, thanks
to my natural agility, I managed to escape from the
danger and went outside. I guess I should be thankful
for my nature skills... When I heard the self-destruct
announcement and saw the emergency signal, I knew that
I had to get off of the island. Was this all HER
doing? I didn't have time to think about it because I
had to hurry to the hanger of the transportation plane
to escape... On my way to the transportation plane, a
huge monster appeared in front of that woman in red.
It broke through the fences like they were made of
paper! Although I wanted to see what happened to the
woman in red, I decided to run to my destination...
Even with all the explosions and fires, the
transportation plane took off with us on it. I thought
that I was safe. But somehow, that huge monster got
onto our plane. With help from me, the woman in red
was able to drive the monster out of our plane. She is
indeed a woman to be respected... I can't believe it!
Our transportation plane landed at an Antarctic
transportation base. Worse yet, the crews who took off
with another transportation plane before us, have
scattered the T-virus here. Now this base is just like
the island, where zombies and monsters wander
around... I won't be able to survive long in a place
like this! I must find a way to escape from here as
soon as possible!! I will give up on that woman in red
and will start searching for another way... As I was
resting in the darkness, I sensed someone approaching.
They're right next to me! The door was closed and I
couldn't escape, so I just kept banging on the door
like a maniac. Suddenly the door opened, so I ran for
it! But then I realized that I should not be afraid,
so I looked back. I found myself staring at the woman
in red... Finally, I found a blond haired man in sun
glasses. It seemed he was going to escape in a
submarine. I felt that it was my last chance to escape
from this crazy place of white terror. So just before
the submarine hatch closed, I successfully sneaked
into the submarine. That is my story of how I survived
from that insane world of horror.

File 15-Hunk's Report --
Attn: Mr. Alfred
Ashford, head of the facility.
Today at 16:32,
I arrived successfully from the Umbrella transport
base with the large-scale B.O.W. capsule. Extreme care
was taken during transport, and all 108 check points
were confirmed condition "green", in
accordance with standard procedures. It is currently
being stored in a freezer. There's one thing that I
don't understand. We are normally assigned to special
missions. Why were we ordered to transport a frozen
capsule this time? I understand that this may be
classified as top-secret, but without knowledge of the
contents, our safety could be at risk during the
transport. This is especially important if the
contents are potentially harmful.
We would like to ask you to provide us with more
information, should we be assigned similar missions in
the future. I still remember the good old days that I
spent here in the military training center. Nothing
has changed since then. We will gear up for the next
mission, today at 23:00.

October 30th
When I joined Umbrella Inc., I thought that I would be
able to live care-free for the rest of my life, being
employed by this huge corporation. It's a joke that I
ended up being a driver at a place like this. I asked
for a position change, but they completely ignored me.
It feels more like a prison! Work is extremely
demanding, and there's nothing fun about it. I'd
rather be dead!
November 3rd
My hard-earned vacation was canceled suddenly. I heard
they failed to secure enough manpower due to a mistake
made by the facility head, Alfred. That fool doesn't
deserve forgiveness. He doesn't even treat us like
human beings!
November 5th
I heard an interesting story from a guy who's been
working here for over 8 years. He must be awfully
patient...
He says that there is a man who has been confined for
over 10 years, locked up in a cell located deep below
here. People call him "Nosferatu" and are
deathly afraid of him. What an absurd story!
November 10th
At midnight I woke up to an ominous growling sound
that seemed to be coming from deep under ground... I'm
so pathetic to have been frightened by such a foolish
story. Then again, I suppose anyone would have a hard
time maintaining their sanity if they were confined in
a place like this!!

File 17-Alexander's Memo --
My father, Edward,
discovered the mother virus in cooperation with Lord
Spencer, who was also a nobleman. They studied it for
the purpose of military use. Eventually their study
took shape. They named a variation of the mother
virus, the "T-virus". To camouflage their
research, they established Umbrella Chemical, Inc. I
majored in biogenetics and have been involved with a
top secret project, supporting my father's research.
However, my research went through a difficult phase,
and my father died in the middle of the project. We
are now at a major disadvantage against other
researchers, as there is great competition in the
field of T-virus research. I have disgraced the
honorable name of the Ashford family that our great
ancestor Veronica established. If nothing is done,
Umbrella will be taken over by Spencer. I must
expedite the project to its fullest, without being
detected by Spencer. After much thought, I decided to
establish a large-scale advanced research facility. It
will be
located in the transport terminal that I created by
using the abandoned mine in the Antarctic. Within the
facility, I'll have a room built. It will be similar
to the design of my mansion, the legacy of the late
Trevor. I will be able to cherish my sweet memories
there... For security purposes, this confidential
project will be given a code name. It is the name of
the beautiful ancestor of the Ashford family,
"Veronica" whom I wish to revive so badly. I
am confident that the result of my research will be as
glorious as her name, and that honor will be restored
to the
Ashford family once again.

File 18-Butler's Letter --
Sir Alfred,
Please forgive me, as I must tell you of my abrupt
departure by leaving this letter. I first served your
father, Lord Alexander, and have for so long shared in
the joys and sorrows of the Ashford family. Lord
Alexander disappeared unexpectedly 15 years ago, then
an accident during an experiment took the life of our
dear Alexia. You were forced to become the master of
the family at a very young age, and nearly lost your
sanity from the sorrow of having lost all of your
family members at once. There was nothing I could do,
and I felt powerless.
I first thought that I should kill myself to
apologize. I then realized that it would be an insult
to our dear Lord Alexander and Alexia, in the other
world...

File 19-Confession Letter --
Alexia, my sister, is
a genius and possesses unmatched beauty. She is
everything to me. I would overcome any obstacle and be
willing to risk my life for her. For Alexia, I must
revive the glorious Ashford family which fell during
the era of my father, Alexander. Together, we will
restore our family name. Once that has been achieved,
I'll build a palace where only nobles may gather. I
cannot allow the unwashed to see my dear Alexia, to
whom my life is devoted to. She reigns the world as
queen, with I as her servant. That is my dream, and
how sweet it will be. Those accomplishments will be
the proof of my love toward Alexia. It is the purpose
of my existence. All other people are meaningless, and
they shall soon prostrate themselves before Alexia and
I.
Devoted to my beloved Alexia,

File 20-Passage Memo --
The underground
passage which leads to the mansion where Alexia and I
live, has been badly damaged. Although I can never
allow the unwashed to see Alexia, I cannot go on using
the underground waterway that those local people made,
either. Oh yes... I think I'll have those prisoners
build a bridge. It must be a gorgeous bridge that
befits the perfection that is Alexia. Of course, I
must kill everyone who's involved in the construction
of the bridge after it is done, so that no one will
know about the existence of our mansion. But that is
okay, as I have no problem executing such matters.
Once the bridge is completed,I'll seal the mansion
entrance door at the end of the under-ground waterway.
The entrance of the waterway is locked by the diorama
trick, ensuring the secrecy of our mansion.

File 21-Veronica Report --
After many long years
of research, I finally identified the inheritance
element that administers the intelligence of man. I
even succeeded in manipulating the absolute value of
intelligence artificially, by recomposing the base
alignment of the element. I then sampled the gene of
our great ancestor, manipulated its element, then
implanted it into the unfertilized egg of a surrogate
mother. What I didn't expect was that twins, a boy and
a girl, were born. The boy had higher intelligence
then normal, but not high enough for him to be
considered a genius. However, the girl had unmatched
intelligence that easily allowed her to be classified
as a genius. She was exactly what I had been looking
for, the revival of our great ancestor. I already
determined their names; the girl's name, Alexia, and
the boy's name, Alfred. I'm certain that Alexia will
elevate the name of the Ashford family to extreme
glory.

January 30th
There's a sealed room in the hallway located inside of
the Antarctic facility. I don't know what is hidden
there, but I do know how to get in. I can use the
three jewels that each one of our three family members
wear as proof of being a legitimate descendant of the
Ashford family. The only problem is, I do not know how
I can gain possession of my father's proof.
February 17th
I finally succeeded in entering that sealed room. I
never could have imagined that such an insane secret
existed regarding the birth of both Alexia and
myself...
I hate my father. That fool, Alexander... Now it is
obvious that we were merely created in an attempt to
cover my father's blunder. I can never trust him
again. I must regain the glory of the Ashford family
with my sister. I have nothing to be afraid of, as
long as Alexia is with me.
March 3rd
Alexia carried out the experiment on the human body
that we've been talking about. Our useless father must
be happy now, since he can finally contribute to the
Ashford family. The only thing we should be careful
about is that the butler, Harman, does not become wise
to our activities.
April 22nd
The experiment resulted in failure. Our father was
useless after all. Even worse, he turned into a
dangerous monster that is completely out of control.
We tied him down and locked him up in an underground
prison cell. However, Alexia seems to be close to a
solution. Beyond all my expectations, she now says
that she wishes to conduct the experiment on her own
body. On top of that, she feels she must be kept
asleep for 15 years in order to accomplish the
experiment. Thanks to that idiot, I can't see my dear
Alexia for as long as 15 years. Alexia is going to
sleep, with all of her trust relying upon me. Now, I'm
the only one who can protect Alexia.

File 23-Queen Ant Report --
After discovering the remains of an ancient virus
within the genes of a queen ant, I have been
concentrating on the research of ants. The ecosystem
of the ants seems truly ideal to me. There is one
queen ant in each anthill, and the soldier and worker
ants are the queen's slaves. They dedicate their lives
to the queen. The death of the queen ant means the
doom of the entire anthill. However, the soldier and
worker ants can be easily replaced as
long as the queen ant is alive. This is exactly the
same relationship between myself and the other
ignorant masses. I have succeeded in creating an ideal
virus by implanting the queen ant's gene into the
mother virus that Spencer found. I used my otherwise
useless father as a test subject. However, as I
expected, the virus caused a rapid change in his
cells, triggering the complete destruction of his
brain cells and body flesh. Furthermore, a special
type of poison gas was generated inside his body, that
the blue herb had no effect against. Because of this,
I created an antidote in in case of emergency, and
stored it inside of the weapon/chemical warehouse on
the B2 floor. I have decided to name this virus with
unimaginable potential, the "T-Veronica"
virus. When I find out how
I can utilize the power of this wonderful virus, my
great research will finally be complete.
Alexia Ashford
--
File 24-Virus Report --
Work continues on the "T-Veronica" virus
which I extracted from the queen ant. The more
research I conduct on it, the more I am impressed by
how much potential it has. I have finally implanted
the virus into my own body, and discovered how to
utilize its power. I will avoid making the mistake
that I made on my father. I will suppress the activity
of the virus at an ultra-low temperature, so that my
cells will change slowly. My calculations indicate
that it will take 15 years before my body will gain
immunity, and become able to coexist with the virus.
Until then, I have no choice but to trust the capsule
that I will be in, to that inept but loyal soldier ant
who is my brother. For me to obtain unlimited power,
some risks need to be taken. When I awaken, I will be
the queen... And the "T-Veronica" virus will
be unleashed upon the entire world by my children.
Every last creature on earth will exist to serve me.
At that time, the world will achieve the perfect
ecosystem. Just like the anthill, but on a much
grander scale.
