Nemesis
Nemesis T-Type
The inability to control the Tyrant during the Mansion Incident alerted Umbrella's bioweapons research team that improvements needed to be made. The European office, under direct orders from Umbrella headquarters, came up with a brand new project designed to correct previous mistakes and improve on existing strong points. In the Number 6 Laboratory, they began research on a project they hoped would turn every other Tyrant idea on its ear. That was the beginning of the Nemesis Project.
Their goal was
not to improve the Tyrant, but to create a whole new life form that could be injected into it,
increasing its intelligence far beyond what was thought possible.
The result of this project was the NE-a, a Bio Organic Weapon (B.O.W.) with highly
increased intelligence. This was the birth of the creature known as Nemesis. Nemesis was
then injected into a Tyrant's spinal cord on the cellular level, whereupon it began to feed
on the T-Virus and used it to spread throughout the Tyrant's entire system. After finishing
the formation of its unique brain, the creature then began to make changes on its host's
entire nervous system. This way, Tyrant's entire thought process would be left in the hands
of the Nemesis, and its actions could be controlled completely from the outside.
The Nemesis T-Type was the result of injecting a mass-produced Tyrant with Nemesis, creating a
new type of B.O.W. that would carry out orders faithfully and precisely. Furthermore, its improved
intelligence allowed it to make its own decisions without the need for constant direction, and to
operate complex weapons that would have been impossible before. Finally, to protect it from bullets
and explosions, and to provide a fail-safe if it went out of control for any reason, it was wrapped in a
specially made long overcoat before it was sent off to fight.
Thanks to the Nemesis's secretions, the regenerative powers of the Nemesis T-Type were far above
that of standard B.O.W.'s. But injuries or damage that required regeneration came with a heavy price,
requiring strange and awkward-looking mutations in the thing's body. Its second form is a perfect
example of this, having been stripped of the top half of its overcoat and changing at an accelerated
pace. Its tentacles, which were already partially visible during its first form, now begin to develop at
an alarming rate. And the mutations did not stop there.
Although the Nemesis T-Type was able to overcome the intelligence-decreasing secondary effects of
the T-Virus, it couldn't overcome the destabilizing effects. Eventually it went on a mindless rampage,
the same as the Tyrant had before it. The destruction of its shared Tyrant's brain activated its defensive
instincts and prompted yet another major mutation. Its third form was the result. With the cells from
the two creatures now opposing each other, the mutations kept going until the entire creature had
reached a gigantic size. And as its brain worked to protect its predatory abilities, it eventually mutated
into a giant, all-consuming digestive organ. Add to that the large bubbles of acidic blood that had begun
to form on its back, and it had lost all resemblance to its original form.
The Nemesis T-Type is first unleashed
on Raccoon City, complete with orders
to eliminate any S.T.A.R.S. officers
on sight. Upon spotting a target, the
creature utters "Stars..." and attacks.
The Nemesis T-Type was created to be a
fighting machine, capable of using all kinds of
weapons. It's so skilled with them that it can
take down a fast-moving rescue helicopter
with a single shot from a rocket launcher.
Nemesis T-Type First Form
The original form of the Nemesis, created from a Tyrant base and made to be a new form of B.O.W. The secretions from the Nemesis Cells give the creature its unique, creepy appearance Its main weapon is a rocket Launcher.
Nemesis T-Type Second Form
A mutated form of Nemesis, uninhibited by the coat that helped keep it in check. The increased number of tentacles is a result of regeneration after severe injuries in a previous battle. It has even greater attack abilities than it did while in its first form.
Nemesis T-Type Third Form
This is its final form, the result of its survival instincts overriding its attack programming. It has transformed into a giant digestive organ whose main purpose is to hunt for prey. It spews poison all around it. The giant bone protrusions extending from its chest area are its main distinguishing characteristic. Its intelligence has decreased severely, but it still attempts to carry out its mission to destroy all members of S.T.A.R.S.
