most important character in RE

[TheSelfishGene]

For the in game universe: Albert Wesker.

For marketing the series to new people: Leon, Dr Salvadore, Albert Wesker and Alice.

[Becky's Butt]

Pft. His voice isn't half as funny as Kendo's.

[Jill's Boob]

Wesker. He's always in the background, manipulating things. Prolonging the bioterror.

(Plus, I didn't know I could vote for more than one. D'oh!)

But my favorite RE character, besides Chris, is the anonymous trucker from the intro of RE2:

"That guy's a maniac. Why'd he bite me?!" (His voice is hilarious.)

[Ridley W. Hayes]

No Dario Russo on the list?

No random choper pilot on the list?

damn, i forgot to put birkin up there, oh well im not starting this again for the third time, just vote other if you think Bikin is the most important.

[Stars1356]

I voted for Wesker because he seems to connect all the games together. Chris and Jill would also be important because they are still fighting Wesker and bioterrorism.

[The Dude]

I voted for Barry because he's awesome, and will be an important figure in the salvation of mankind at a later date...what?

[Biohazard EX]

Yeah, but Marcus was ruined with that stupid white robe. Even though it was technically the leech queen. Just the idea that Marcus treated the leeches like his children, made him seem kind of lame.

[Becky's Butt]

Well I said that. But Marcus had a lot to do with the T-Virus too being he created it and all. Hell, he was a founder of Umbrella. But he's not that important to the plot overall.

[Biohazard EX]

Birkin was the lead researcher on the T-Virus, which makes him integral to the backstory.

[Becky's Butt]

Well, Birkin had a lot to do with the backstory of the series as well as REZero and 2. But, being dead and whatnot, he can't influence the plot anymore.

[Jill Lover]

Billy Birkin? O_O

What about good 'ol Barry!?

[Vector]

I voted Chris, Jill, Wesker, and Other. Seems like people are forgetting Billy Birkin.

[Jill Lover]

Sooo damn right up there. She might not be the most important, but she's on the list of the important characters from the series, and that's enough saying.

[Biohazard EX]

What's this? No 400 votes for Leon? How odd...

I voted for Jill for two simple reasons:

1. She was there during the mansion incident. She witnessed Wesker's crisis (his turning point), and she witnessed the mansion blow up.

2. She was there during the Raccoon City outbreak and witnessed the destruction of Raccoon City.

Jill was there during the two most important games in the entire series.
