Svetlana Belikova
Voiced by: Wendee Lee, Eriko Kawasaki (Japanese)
The president of the Eastern Slav Republic.- Badass Boast:
- She delivers one to Ada when the latter realizes that the rumors of her being a former instructor are true.Ada: So... it's true what they said about you being a former instructor.
Svetlana: Former? I still am an instructor. - She also hands out a boast to Leon when he is holding her hostage during the standoff under the palace.Svetlana: Do you have any idea who you are pointing your gun at?
Leon: Let me see... you're the Beekeeper?
Svetlana: The Beekeeper?
Leon: The person who released the Plaga.
Svetlana: Just as I thought. You haven't a clue. I am the President... of this country.
- She delivers one to Ada when the latter realizes that the rumors of her being a former instructor are true.
- Big Bad: The villain of Damnation.
- Dark Action Girl: She has a military background, and the skills to take on Ada (and Leon) in a fight.
- Faux Affably Evil: As expected for a political figure, she can conduct herself with charm and good manners when necessary. She's actually a stone-cold, ruthless dictator that will crush anyone she considers useless.
- Good Scars, Evil Scars: Has a painful-looking burn scar on her back.
- Karma Houdini: Zig-Zagged: She gets away with her life, but she's deposed as President and her plans for entering the international stage are irrevocably ruined.
- No Celebrities Were Harmed: She's totally not Yulia Tymoshenko.
Really. - President Evil: A classic example of the Soviet type.
- Punch Catch: Pulls one off with Ada during their fight.
- Rank Scales with Asskicking: She demonstrates this by easily defeating Ada Wong, who is often portrayed as one of the strongest and most calculating characters in Resident Evil. She also rather easily defeats Leon (in heels and a skirt no less) and then tosses him several meters across the room effortlessly.
- Retired Badass: Formerly a combat instructor. Not so retired after all.
- Tranquil Fury: While telling Leon exactly who and what she is. She's clearly angry, but maintains her cool while doing so.
"Buddy" / Alexander "Sasha" Kozachenko
Voiced by: Dave Wittenberg, Nobuyuki Hiyama (Japanese)
A resistance fighter aiming to take down the Eastern Slav Republic's government by any means necessary.- Anti-Villain / Anti-Hero: Depending on your point of view, he is either a Type III Anti-Villain or Type IV Anti-Hero.
- Expy: He has an uncanny resemblance to Ark Thompson, the hero from Resident Evil Survivor.
- Fire-Forged Friends: Downplayed.
Word of God says that he and Leon do not become friends exactly, but they do start to understand each other's point of view. - Life-or-Limb Decision: He lets Leon shoot him to kill the parasite taking over his body, leaving him paralyzed.
- The Minion Master: Purposely infests himself with a Plaga Queen to gain control of the Lickers for his assault on the Presidential Palace.
- Start of Darkness: His rage at the government stems from when they blew up the school where he was a teacher along with his fiancée Irina, killing her and his students, and claimed the school had been a front for the rebels. He joined the revolution soon after.
JD
Voiced by: Val Tasso, Shintaro Ohata (Japanese)
A resistance fighter and friend of Buddy's.- Big Fun: 99% of his dialogue is comedy gold; and has a bit of a paunch from all the junk food he eats.
- Eagleland: JD is openly fascinated with America, with an idealized view of the country born from its pop culture and junk food.
- Not in This for Your Revolution: He's in it for his friend, Buddy.
- Plucky Comic Relief: He's an upbeat and funny guy, in comparison to the grim dealings going on around him.
- Resist the Beast: He resists plaga infestation long enough to tell Buddy that he only joined the revolution because he wanted to "have fun with you and my friends."
- Tragic Monster: Infected with a Plagas, and barely able to maintain control long enough to talk to Buddy one last time.
- Your Head A-Splode: And get replaced with a Plaga monster
