Summary
Dr. William Birkin (ウィリアム・バーキン) was a virologist who worked for Umbrella Pharmaceuticals in the 1970s-1990s. The head of the Golgotha Virus research project,[4] he turned against the Umbrella Corporation after failing to achieve a promotion to its executive. The company's attempts to prevent an unauthorized deal with the U.S. military served as a catalyst for the events of the Raccoon City Destruction Incident. He was the husband of Annette Birkin and father of Sherry Birkin.

Intelligence: Doctor William Birkin was a child prodigy and a promising researcher for Umbrella who developed many bioweapons, including the T and G-Viruses. However, after injecting himself with the G-Virus, he slowly succumbed to a mindless, animalistic fervor who thought only of survival and reproduction.
Weaknesses: As he succumbs to the G-Virus, Birkin slowly loses all his intelligence. The G-Virus is only compatible with those closely related to him by blood; in his case, this is only his daughter. As he transforms, severe injuries will ultimately cause him to mutate into a giant, mindless blob that can barely move.
Note: Except the Resident Evil 1 remake, all other remakes that include RE2 and RE3 Remakes are considered an alternate timeline of the main Resident Evil canon. As proved here.
