COMMANDER SHEPARD
MASS EFFECTMARCUS FENIX
GEARS OF WARA grumpy and gruff soldier with a
good-natured heart and a foul mouth
who served in the Coalition Of Ordered
Governments. Considered a living legend
by his peers, Mr Fenix has fought many
battles with the Locust for a large
chunk of his life and taken part in many
successful missions. He’s extremely
loyal to those he loves, so much so
that he abandoned a mission in order
to save his father, Dr Adam Fenix. As a
result, he was convicted and sentenced
to 40 years in prison, of which he only
served four as his heroism was needed.
After being reinstated as a COG, Fenix
successfully led a resistance against
both the Locust and the Lambent and
brought victory to mankind.8

The greatest soldier this side of the Milky
Way, Shepard is capable of inspiring hope
to everyone he/she meets. After being
exposed to a Prothean beacon, Shepard
had visions of humanity’s downfall at the
hands of an advanced synthetic race
known as the Reapers. Every 50,000 years,
the Reapers arrive to wipe out all sentient
organic life, while leaving primitive speciesalive to evolve for 50,000 years, where they
return and start the cycle all over again.
These machines were more powerful and
intelligent than anyone in the galaxy, but
by rallying a band of loyal companions and
inspiring hope in civilisations throughout
the star system, Shepard was able to use
the combined might of the Milky Way to put
a stop to the Reapers once and for all.LEON KENNEDY
RESIDENT EVILLeon is as big a hero as they come. On his
first (and only) day on the job as a rookie
cop for the Raccoon City Police Department,
Leon did what most of us would never have
the courage to do. He arrived in Raccoon City
and found the place crawling with zombies.
Surrounded by the dead and insurmountable
odds, he stayed to look for
survivors and ended up
eliminating the threat to the
city. He then became
a special agent for
the US government
and rescued the
president’s
daughter from
a kidnapping.
Years later
he put an
end to
a global
terrorist
attack that
threatened to
turn millions of
people around
the world into
flesh-eating
zombies.JILL VALENTINE
RESIDENT EVILThe master of unlocking, Jill Valentine is
no stranger to adversity and has devoted
her life to eradicating bioweapons and
stopping anyone who wishes to use them,
particularly the sinister Umbrella Corporation.
She also has a personal vendetta against
ex-STARS captain Albert Wesker. Jill was
there when the first zombie outbreak began.
She fought alongside Chris Redfield and
Barry Burton during what is now referred to
as the ‘Mansion Incident’, which was the
start of exposing Umbrella’s evil actions.
Months later, while the rest of her team
left for Europe to investigate Umbrella, Jill
remained in Racoon City and survived a series
of confrontations with the powerful Tyrant
bioweapon, Nemesis.058 THE OFFICIAL XBOX MAGAZINEOXM INVESTIGATES
