History Characters / ResidentEvilMonstersIrregulars

* KickTheSonOfABitch: Yawn is why most of the depraved Arklay research staff is dead, viral outbreak notwithstanding. When the outbreak hit, it went out of control and ate most of the researchers and made the mansion its home.

* ArmorIsUseless: They're animated suits of armor but not all that durable, which can probably be justified by how ancient they are. They are, however, difficult to stagger due to being non-sentient.

* OptionalBoss: He attacks Leon directly when he calls for the elevator. He can either try and kill the Verdugo... or HoldTheLine and run away on the elevator as soon as he gets a chance. Killing him is worth it at the very least, as the Verdugo drops the Crown Jewel; when combined with the Crown and Royal Insignia treasures, it forms the Salazar Family Crown, the most expensive treasure in the game sold at 400,000 pesetas.

* WasOnceAMan: The Remake has a note that reveals that the Verdugo that chases Leon was originally a castle servant and scientist named Isidro Uriarte Talavera.

* DualBoss: The Bella Sisters are always seen as a duo, except for one appearance in the ''[=RE4=]'' remake in the mines where only one show up, but alongside a Dr. Salvador.

* RecurringBoss: After the initial scripted boss fight, different El Gigantes are fought throughout the course of 4. Only Ndesu is one-of-a-kind and never seen after 2-3 in 5.

* ArmorIsUseless: Averted. Napads are effectively NighInvulnerable unless you manage to blow off their armor or get the right angle and accuracy to target their gaps. Noga-Oklop and Telo-Krljusht J'avo are completely bulletproof where their armor covers them.

* HealingFactor: Averted; despite being a C-Virus B.O.W., and despite being super tough, it lacks even conventional healing ability. Six months later, it still sports the wounds Jake and Sherry gave it with a mining drill. A file mentions the C-Virus didn't even regenerate its lost right arm prior, prompting ArtificialLimbs to compensate.

** Averted with most general Plaga hosts; it's the fact you can't tell that they're infected that makes them scary, with the only tell being their eyes giving off a red glow in dark conditions. This is played straight over a longer period of time, as the host's skin begins to turn deathly pallid and their eyes become cataracted over, suggesting the body eventually dies and begins to decay at some point after the Plaga takes full control.
** Played straight when Plaga expose themselves in response to damage. Most generally emerge from the neck, bursting the head in the process, but upgraded versions can burst through the entire upper body and create a massive jaw on human legs.

* NothingIsScarier: Little is known of how they came to be. All that's said is they were the result of ''especially'' horrific human experimentation that involved insects. [[AvertedTrope Averted]] in the remake, which explains their origin.

* ArmorIsUseless:
** They're animated suits of armor but not all that durable, which can probably be justified by how ancient they are. They are, however, difficult to stagger due to being non-sentient.
** This is completely [[AvertedTrope averted]] in the remake. The actual suits of armor are completely impervious to damage and can only be harmed by attacking an exposed Plaga emerging out of their armor.

* RecurringBoss: After the initial scripted boss fight, different El Gigantes are fought throughout the course of 4. Averted with Ndesu, who is one-of-a-kind and never seen after 2-3 in 5.

* DropTheHammer: The Brutes wield sledgehammers as their primary weapon and their swings are so strong that Leon will have to evade rather than parry it with a knife.

* FacefulOfAlienWingWong: In the remake, the Drain Deimos that grapple Jill can implant parasitic larvae into her stomach, causing an InterfaceScrew that lasts until she takes a Green Herb.

* AnArmAndALeg: A file mentions the man that became Ustanak lost his right arm in a lab accident. This led to its replacement with detractable and weaponized prosthetics.

* ShotgunsAreJustBetter: One of its arm cannons is essentially an oversized shotgun.

* SwissArmyAppendage: It has a lot of accessories for its artificial arm, including an ArmCannon, an EpicFlail, [[PlayingWithSyringes a syringe]], [[ThisIsADrill a drill]], and WolverineClaws.
* TranquilFury: After Carla's death, a file mentions it may have this or [[DespairEventHorizon sheer sadness]].

* BeastOfTheApocalypse: This is HAOS's intended role - should it reach the surface, it would begin spreading the C-Virus in a similar way to the Lepotica while rapidly spawning smaller clones; this would rapidly result in the C-Virus spreading worldwide, collapsing society and causing TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt.

* ImplacableMan: Takes multiple rounds of fire and battles to take down. And even then, it only dies from Piers's final attack and the base explosion.

* WorfHadTheFlu: As noted, HAOS was prematurely released to fight the heroes since Carla was killed beforehand. What Chris and Piers fight is nothing compared to what it could be at full strength.

* AxCrazy: Typical J'avo suffer from a bad case of this, having been driven psychotic from the infection and consequently lashing out at anything that crosses their path. However, the Neo-Umbrella operatives are much more restrained.

* BaldOfEvil: The Zealot Ganados, when not wearing hoods or helmets, are invariably shaven bald and tattooed on the skullcap as a sign of their devotion, which adds to their unsettling appeal. This includes the [[BaldWomen female Zealots]], in the remake.

* MythologyGag: Her ability to infect her victim's with hallucinations and cast the areas they're in blue balefire, are nods to ''Resident Evil 4's'' cancelled "Hook Man" iteration.
