Some sections are illegible.) 8 miles north of Raccoon City, in the Arklay Mountains, lies our comp ny's Managment Training facility. It was shut down years ag . Now, w are conductin a preliminary tudy into the re-opening of the faci ities. First Investigation Unit is alre dy onsite and opening th investi ation, I want yo r team to provide suppo t. The following orders re Will m Bark and 1s i ves gat o Un t. ..... (The rest is torn and unreadable.) ================================================== Notice To All Supervisors When closing the dining car, supervisors are asked to switch off the automatic doors after ensuring all the staff have vacated the car. The main automatic door power switch is located on the roof of the fifth car, Inspections will take place when the train is garaged. After inspections is completed, use the ladder at the rear of the second of the dining car. Umberella Corp Maintenace Department ================================================== Passenger's Diary July 14th Orders came from boss today. Looks like we're in charge of investigating the remains of the Arklay Mountains laboratory. We're moving in two groups, with us as the intial group, assigned to stand checking what's left of the abandoned experiment. July 16th Unfortunately,the test production of the B.O.W. (Type -Y139) had to be suspended because of this investigation. It's the same with the Type -Y139. There's still so much we don't know about responses to the crustacean virus. There's a lot of interesting research left...Depending on the species and nurturing conditions, only minute doses of "T" bring about remarkable changes in solidity, size, multiplication of internal toxins and brain development. If these effects can be controlled, a weapon could be produced. But the sudden development of the shell results in corresponding fragility. Certain areas become exceedingly weak. Problematically, one of these areas is the head carapace. This lab we are going to... Were they pursuing the same research? It would certainly help to find data and samples that help us in our research. July 19th The day is finally apporaching.. I am growing more anxious. The Raccoon City newspapers and TV stations are full of reports about bizzare murders in the suburbs. It can't be the virus, can it? If it is... No, I can't think of that now. I have to concentrate on this investigation and make sure it runs smoothly. ================================================== Brake Operation Manual Using the Brake control, the following steps are neccessary to operate the brakes: Step 1: Activate the controls - Brake controls are loacted in the following locations: First car Driver's compartment - Rear deck of the fifth car. To activate the system,you must insert the magnetic card into the device in the fifth car. This will supply power to both sets of controls. Step 2: Enter Rear Deck code Enter the rear deck unit to release the lock. After this, the Driver's compartment code can be input. Step 3: Enter Driver's compartment code - Enter the code for the Driver's compartment unit to remove the lock. Upon completion of these steps, the manual brakes will be available for use. ================================================== Note From The Conductor The keycard for the driver's compartment is in my bag as always. But I need the other guys key too often to open the damn thing. But it looks like I've lost it somewhere. If it was a normal key, someone is sure to turn it in, but the key is different. I'll look for it too, but it you happen to find it, please hand it in. Thanks in advance. ================================================== Regulations For The Trainees Training Facility Mission: - This training facility will raise a new generation of model employees to serve the future of Umberella Corp.

James Marcus, Director, Umberella Coporation, Managment Training facility. ================================================== Notice To All Staff (This document is very old. Much of the writing is illegible.) Regular meetings of the Vaccine Records Research and Infectious Agents teams will be held. Both meetings are Security Level 5, and will be held in the following locations: - 1F W operations control room. - 2F SE meeting room. The entry code shall be: "8:15" Thank you. ================================================== Marcus' Diary 1 December 4th We finally did it....the new virus! We have called it the "Progenitor". I want to carry it back and start detailed invesgations immediately. March 23th Spencer says he's going to start a company. Well, I don't care, as long as I can continue my research into "Progenitor". He can do what he likes.. August 19th Spencer keeps asking me to be the director of his new training facility. Maybe it is because of the business but he is becoming intolerably pushy. But maybe I can turn this to my advantage. I need a special facility to properly to explore all this virus' secrets. A place where no one will get in the way... November 30th Damn that Spencer! He came to complain to me again today. He thinks of "Progenitor" as noting more than a money-spinning tool. Fool! But his influence continues to grow, it can only be bad for my research. If I'm to properly develop "Progenitor", I must strengthen my own position, too. September 19th At last.. I've discovered a way to build a new virus type with "Progenitor" as a base. Mixing it with leech DNA was a breakthrough I needed.. I call this new virus "T", for "Tyrant". October 23rd It's no good! I can't hope for real progress experimenting on mere rodents. Only humans can be a proper mammlian subject for the experiments. Otherwise, I will never get any real progress... November 15th Someone seems to suspect something about my experiments...But, perhaps it's just my imagination. Well, if anyone does get too close, they may find themselves unexpectedly "assisting" in my research! January 13th At last, they are ready. My wonderful leeches! Those of low intellgence, they will never have the privilege of tasting this sense of joy and satisfaction! Now, finally, I can move against Spencer. Soon, I will control everything... January 31st The devices I set to protect my work have been disturbed, it appears someone came looking for "T" and the leeches. Fool. No doubt it's Spencer's group. February 11th Today, I again found evidence of tampering around the entrance to the labs. If that is what they're after, I must find a suitable way to deal with them. Perhaps I should have William and Albert smoke out the pest.. Those two are the only ones I trust. Apart from the beloved leeches, of course, But Spencer.. It wouldn't end there.. Would it? I will announce "T" at the next directors meeting and collect my just rewards.. ================================================== Assistant Directors's Diary September 2nd A useless bunch of trainees, as always. Where does headquarters find these idiots? We did get a couple of decent ones, though, so can't complain I guess, William and Albert, they might have a future. September 25th Scholar Will, Pratical Al, They really are opposites. And they are always competitive in everything they do. There is something useless and cruel about them both.. October 7th Got a sudden call from the director, it was to tell me to encourage a rival between those two! It's the first time since this training facility was built that Director Marcus has ever shown interest in anything other than his research. Well, whatever, orders are orders. I'm going to have them tearing at each other's throats. ================================================== About Power Regulator Due to the recent lightning strike, the power regulator continues to be inoperative. I wouldn't really matter about the power, except for the fact that the boiler room equipment is on the same grid. The equipment is so run down, I'll probably have to have it fixed up all the time. If you wish to exit rapidly, set the indicator to 70. Check first though that everything is connected to the chain. ================================================== A Verse Of Poetry The Moon bows to the Earth, The Earth swears loyalty to the Sun, And the great Law of the Sun Governs all things, This itself is the keystone, The pointer of glory, All our hands cannot open the door to heaven. ================================================== Management Trainee's Diary What is that Director Marcus is researching all the time? And what's with his weird interest in leeches? Interest? Seems more like love at times.. Rumor has it that there's something dangerous about those leeches. It is true that when Dennis just touched one, he got ill with a fever. Again today.. There were those horrible moans. Beyond that door, "let sleeping dogs..." No way I'll go near them. Even if the Director tells me, I no way want to end up like Dennis. That poor bastard. Scratching and scratching. Makes me itch just watching him. Must maybe go IF can but hwo Dennis gone, I go Hungry.. Help.. Mom. ================================================== Microfilm Image An image resulting from overlaying microfilms A and B. Numbers appear on the seats of the Conference Room. ================================================== Inmates List Correctional Institute Inmates List: - Mathews, K.

(Transported individuals to be deleted from the records). ================================================== First Investigation Unit Notes We are searching the facilities, and it looks like a lot of chemicals survived. Fortunately, the storage tanks are still full. We have just started and there is still a lot we don't know, but it appears that the chemicals can be mixed to produce new substances. The chemicals are scattered all about. Not because of the accident, more a result of a plain investigation. When we reopen the facilities, we have to develop a system for dealing with these chemicals. (Something is scrawled on the back of the note.) - Red + Blue = Sulfuric Acid - Green + Red = Stripping Agent ================================================== Marcus' Diary 2 (This page has been torn out.) Trouble is unlikely, but I closed my babies up in the special capsule. But it won't be safe if I hold it onto myself. I'll hide it in that place. "To hide a leaf, put it in a forest"... To open the capsule, the special stripping agent is necessary. No way Spencer's lackeys could figure how to make it.. ================================================== Old Photograph (There's something written on the back of the photograph). To James, To commemorate your graduation, 1939. ================================================== Investigator's Report Dr. Marcus, Co-founder, with President Spencer, of the Umberella Corporation, disappeared 20 years ago. The results of his research have been kept under wraps for all that time. The reason became clear here at the Training Facility run by Dr. Marcus.. Well, not here exactly, but underground. When we ventured below, we understood.. There we found evidence of Dr. Marcus' research into the T-Virus prototype called "Progenitor". The evidence of years of hideous experiments that used company employees as guinea pigs. We cannot know how many were forced to become subjects, but based on the evidence, no less than twenty individuals were involved; some of them taken deliberately to keep the corporation's secret safe. Where the Doctor is now I don't know, but considering the recent rapid growth of the Umbrella Corporation, I can't imagine the research is continuing. No..his experiment lives and continues to grow in the dark. Those things, the "fruit" of his research, they fill this facility. (The rest of the notebook pages are missing). ================================================== Leech Growth Records February 3rd, 1978. - Administrated "T" into 4 leeches. Their will to survive leads them first to parasitism and predation, then they breed and mulitply. Such single minded biology makes them attractive candidates for bioweapons research. Afterwards, no major changes observed. February 10th, 1978. - 7 days since the adminstration of the "T". Rapid growth to double former size, signs of tranformation emerging. Spawning successful, they double their numbers in an hour, but their ravenous appetites lead them to cannibalism. Hastened to incease food supply, but lost 2. March 7th, 1978. - Provided them with live feed, but lost half when the live food fought back. However, the leeches are learning from experience, and are beginning to exhibit group attack behavior. They are also ceasing cannibalism. Their evolution is exceeding expectations. April 22nd, 1978. - The leeches no longer exhibit individual behavior, even when not feeding, they move as a collective. They consume everything I offer with remarkable efficiency. - April 30th,1978. An employee has stumbled onto my experiments. Can a human be a food source? How will the leeches respond? June 3rd,1978 - A day worthy of commemoration. Today they began to mimic me! Surely they recognize their father.. Wonderful children, No one will take you away.. ================================================== Laboratory Manager's Diary Today, under Director Marcus' orders, I changed the platform entry code. Later I asked him what the source of the entry code was. He told me it was based on something significant in his childrens growth. But, the Director is a loner, he isn't married and he sure doesn't have any children.. What could he mean? ================================================== BOW Report Research to date has shown that when the Progenitor virus is administrated to living organisms, violent celluar changes cause a breakdown in the system, Furthermore, no satisfactory method has been found to control the organisms for use as weapons. Clearly, greater co-ordination at the cellular level is essential to enable further growth. I conducted a number of experiments in an effort to find a breakthrough. This is my report: Insecta - Perhaps because of these ancient animals have been genetically stable for millenia, when administered with the progenitor virus they exhibited only explosive high-energy growth and increased aggressivness. It is extremely difficult to envision using them as a BOW. Amphibia - Injecting a frog with the virus resulted in an increase in leaping power and abnormal tongue growth. However, no change in mental ability is observed. Furthermore, an abnormal resulted in the test subject randomly attacking all moving objects. Usefulness for BOW is limited. Mammalia - The progenitor virus was merged with the monkey's cellular DNA, resulting in an increase in fertility. The resulting young exhibited improved aggressiveness and some increased mental capacity. (As a side effect, the visual power was lost, but this offset by an improvment in hearing ability). However, they were unsatisfactory as weapons. It does seem that no progress can be made without making humans as the base organism. ================================================== About Battery Fluid Battery Fluid - The fluid used in batteries is a diluted solution of mixed water and sulfuric acid. Both must be of high purity. When fully charged, battery fluid should have specific gravity of 1,280 + 0.010 at 20 degrees. Battery Acid Purity - Take care that dilute sulfuric acid solution is of sufficient purity. ================================================== Investigator's Report 2 We should have finished with this dump long ago. When this is all started, did anyone expect that there would be guns blazing away like this? We weren't told a thing about creatures attacking us at the briefing.. Guess they were a surprise to the head honchos too. The things in the woods.. just starting attacking people. That had to be planned. Someone deliberately scattered that virus, no doubt about it. But the guards, our fellow soldiers, they must be still around.. Well, whatever. Don't have to worry about that anymore. What I've got to worry about whether to use the last bullet on myself, or on a friend.. That's the only decision I have to make. ================================================== Treatment Plant Manager's Diary 5/10. - Damn it! Why is normal industrial waste being delivered here? This is an Umberella Coporation facility. We can't deal with this volume of material. Plus they're sending us contaminated materials that we can't process. What are we supposed to do with it? 7/24. - Well, looks like they're closing it down. Not surprising, using it like they did. Had to be done, but.. It was pretty sudden. It's not like they cared until now. Anyway, as long as I get out of here, I don't care what they do. ================================================== Gate Operation Manual To open the heliport in case of an emergency, follow the procedures below: Removing the lock: - There are four locking mechanisms in the room which must be activated in this order: - 1. Southwest Side. - 2. Northwest Side. - 3. Southeast Side. - 4. West Side. Turn each of the mechanism's handles to unlock the gate. ========================================================== ========================================================== CONTACT DETAILS E-mail: scott@halfblood.com Msn: scott@halfblood.com Feel free to e-mail me with any questions about the FAQ and game that you may have.
