History Characters / ResidentEvilVillage

* AllTakeAndNoGive: This is her relationship with the Four Lords and the village as a whole. Not only does she command the loyalty of her high-ranking subordinates (sans Heisenberg), she is also revered as a guardian deity among the common folk. Yet all she gives in return are false promises of power and protection- while secretly displaying no true love for them and having them all killed when they no longer serve her any purpose.

[[folder:Mother Miranda (SPOILERS)]]

* HiddenVillain: For the ''entire'' Resident Evil franchise. Everything ties back to Miranda. Yet no one, not even the employees of the Umbrella Corporation, the inhabitants of Raccoon City, or even Chris Redfield for that matter, knew about Miranda or that she was the teacher of none other than Oswell E. Spencer, the man who would go on to found the Umbrella Corporation (using the sigil of the Four Houses in the village as his company logo to give reverence to her) and ultimately be the cause of every bioterrorism threat several decades after his own death. Knowledge he never would have obtained if not for being taught by Miranda and inspired by her research into the Mold, keeping in contact with her years after to inform her of his research into viruses. It wouldn't be until decades after Umbrella's destruction and the Baker Incident in ''Resident Evil 7: Biohazard' that Chris Redfield would at last become aware of her, as Miranda had been secretly conducting her experiments and keeping them contained in the village she ruled for over a century. Miranda is also the mother of Eveline, the bioweapon faced by Ethan Winters in ''Resident Evil 7: Biohazard'. As a result, [[BigBad Miranda has been the villain behind every event in every game in the entire series.]]

All knwoledge he never would have obtained if not for being taught by Miranda and inspired by her research into the Mold and keeping in contact with her years after to inform her of his research into viruses. It wouldn't be until many years after Umbrella's destruction and the Baker Incident in RE7 that Chris Redfield would become aware of her, as Miranda had been secretly conducting her experiments and keeping them contained in the village for over a century. Miranda is also the mother of Eveline, the bioweapon faced by Ethan Winters in RE7. As a result, [[BigBad Miranda has been the villain behind every event in every game in the entire series.]]

* ComfortingTheWidow: Severely averted. Anton brutally insults her by calling her a "stupid, wailing bitch" and saying that soon everyone will be dead like her husband, rubbing more salt in the wound.

* CatchPhrase: "MY EVA!"

* AdorableAbomination: She's a fungal HumanoidAbomination like her parents, but is absolutely huggable both as an infant and as an adolescent.
* AllGirlsLikePonies: After Michael gifts her with ammo at some point in the ''Shadows of Rose'' DLC, she [[DeadpanSnarker snarks]] that she expected a pony.
* AmbiguousSituation: Though she expresses uncanny levels of familiarity with Ethan and Eveline herself shows up in Ethan's NearDeathExperience in the finale, it's unclear how much of Eveline is actually within Rose; it could range anywhere from two consciousnesses sharing the same body to both having unified as one. ''Shadows of Rose'' reveals that [[spoiler:she has ''nothing'' of Eveline within her and didn't even know who she was before her trip through the megamycete.]]

* CursedWithAwesome: She hates her powers as it alienated her from others her entire life, and her quest to get rid of them composes the story of the ''Shadows of Rose'' DLC. Yet, the same powers she hates are crucial to proceed in her journey deep within in the Megamycete's consciousness- and are what allows her to stand against [[spoiler: Eveline and Mother Miranda.]]

* DeaderThanDead: She can make sure that not only will you die, there is no chance whatsoever that you'll ever come back. Specifically, [[spoiler:she can destroy a consciousness through her Mold powers. Miranda finds this out the hard way.]]

* GirlyRun: Her default running animation whenever she has no weapon equipped.

* SuperMode: [[spoiler:When facing Mother Miranda's OneWingedAngel form, Rose reclaims her powers, and remains in a perpetual state of incredible power while facing her down. The white streaks across her skin and her eyes never stop glowing white throughout the fight.]]

* TomboyishBaseballCap: Wears a swanky black baseball cap as a teen.

* FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler: Is set up as having gone through this in the ''Shadow of Rose'' DLC, with him acting as a major antagonist to Rose. Ultimately subverted as this Duke is just a malevolent projection created by Mother Miranda [[BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind in the Megamycete]].]]

* AffectionateNickname: Being her handler as well as one of the few people she is friends with, Canine/Dion Wilson is nicknamed by Rose as K.

* TheAce: The BSAA considers them the best of the best; and it ''really shows''.

* TheBigGuy: Lobo is the team's heavy weapons expert; lugging around an ''LMG'' like it's nothing. He's also a ReligiousBruiser from the American South, and ''huge'' physically.

* AllTakeAndNoGive: This is her relationship with the Four Lords and the village as a whole. Not only does she command the loyalty of her high-ranking subordinates (sans Heisenberg), she is also revered as a guardian deity among the common folk. Yet all she gives in return are false promises of power and protection- while secretly displaying no true love for them and having them all killed when they no longer serve her any purpose.

* CastingAShadow: After going OneWingedAngel, she can envelop the arena she fights Ethan in with a veil of darkness to hide her attacks.

* EvilOldFolks: Given that her child was born as far as back as ''1909'', she could be in the vicinity of ''140 years old''. While her true form looks rather youthful thanks to Mold manipulation, she disguises herself as a creepy old hag to spy on the villagers.

* SatanicArchetype: She is a [[{{Pride}} prideful]] being whose ultimate goal is to subvert death for selfish reasons, not caring how much suffering and death she has to cause to fulfill this. To the villagers, she is revered as a DarkMessiah that keeps the monsters at bay, only for her to allow them all to die when they are no longer of use to her. To her "false children" the Four Houses, she acts as the progenitor to all of them, much like how people believed monsters like vampires and werewolves are the products of Satan's works, and while [[HollywoodSatanism they all bow to her as their master]], she doesn't seem to value them as anything more than the by-products of her experiments. Her animal motif is that of corvids -- one of many animal types associated with the Devil -- and [[DarkisEvil she is associated with black and darkness]], literally oozing mold from every pore as the story goes on. Her default form evokes imagery associated with that of a FallenAngel sporting eight blackbird wings, and her outfit has a HolyHalo that sports a visible crack in her OneWingedAngel form.

* ScienceWizard: She is the one who originally discovered the Mold colony (dubbed the Megamycete) under the village and used it for her experiments to bring her daughter back from the dead.

* AceCustom: They all wield highly decked out CoolGuns, customised with countless attachments and modifcations.

* WorthyOpponent: After her mortal death, Miranda has come to grudgingly respect Ethan for his perserverence, in spite of regarding him as a "pest" for his continued interefence in her schemes. However, Rose earns her outright ''admiration'' for growing up to inherit her father's courage and determination, as it makes her a strong girl who is even ''more'' worthy vessel for her daugther Eva to reincarnate into. Understandably, neither Ethan ''nor'' Rose returns this respect.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Lacks footwear despite the harsh environment outside. Possibly due to his sedentary nature and the fact he's larger than most average humans.
