Resident Evil: Every Raccoon City Survivor EXPLAINED
3. Leon S. Kennedy
A rookie cop on his first day, Leon S Kennedy had no idea what was to follow once he entered Raccoon City. Upon arrival in the city, he is seemingly tied to one Claire Redfield throughout their nightmare, but not before being separated in the RPD. Thanks to one hungry zombified truck driver with a mouth full of burger.
He soon finds out that the city isn’t in the best place and is quickly briefed by Marvin, one of the last standing RPD cops. For a first assignment, this is a tough one as he has to deal with hundreds of zombies, fend off William Birkin and run from Mr X.
All whilst tiptoeing around Lickers.
Never venturing too far from the walls of the RPD he would discover the Umbrella Corporation was behind all this and escape via the NEST with Claire and Sherry. This was all on his first day.
After intense questioning by the US Government, he would work for organisations such as US-STRATCOM and DOS as Leon devoted his life to a cause he didn’t know existed until after the destruction of RC. Somehow most of his B.O.W encounters eventually end up with him bumping into Ada Wong, they have to stop meeting like this.
Alongside Chris Redfield, he has become one of the most featured Resident Evil protagonists.
