* ''Comments'': The original fic was marred by occasional OOCness and the main character has some serious {{GaryStu}} moments, especially towards the end, but it is nonetheless a fun (though long) read. This was not good enough for the author, who looked back on what he originally wrote and [[OldShame realized these were problems]] and struck out to publish a rewrite of the fic: ''Darkness Arises: Reborn'' which, while having a similar plot, is going in some very different directions from the original fic to be something almost entirely new (though it ''is'' a {{Remake}} after all). Jake, while still fairly {{Badass}} has yet to show his pre-existing {{Gary Stu}} colors and is much less heavy handed with his character development this time. This troper is also proud to say that he is actually Metal Harbinger's beta reader and played some part in these "improvements."

* Synopsis: A group of OC's get stranded in Arklay Forest right as S.T.A.R.S Alpha Team arrive to investigate the "cannibal murders" and get caught up in the horror as well as dealing with a traitor... in more ways than one.
* Comments: I was looking for some Resident Evil fanfics and stumbled across this gem. I was instantly hooked and had to read the whole thing. It has sequels for 2 and 3 which are both completed with a break half way through 3 to lead into 2, just like in the games. A version for Code Veronica is currently in progress.

* Comments: Well done body horror. Each chapter is its own experiment into the experiences of major character infected and does a good job providing disconcerting descriptions of the changes and their thoughts at what is happening to them. It's not ''pleastant'', but it's very good you're interested in the unsettling transformations endemic to the series.

* Recommended by {{Tropers/Mad Midnite Dreams}}
* Pairings: Slight Wesker/OC, parody style
* Synopsis: It all started with some prank phone calls…it all goes to hell from there.
* Comments: Seeing as I’m a part of this, perhaps I’m biased…hmm. Hilarious cracktastic fun, although many characters are OOC, this is intentional, for humor. A few minor spelling mistakes, two OCs, and an OC/Wesker pairing, for the sake of humor. Also, the first chapter is done in script style, although you can skip it without concequence.

* ''Comments'': The Matt and Kate are flawed and human enough that they only distort the plot for comedic purposes. It lampoons the canon character's nonsensical choices as well as Flanderizing them to a degree, and the Umbrella Corporation's extravagant malevolence and odd architectural choices. However, it includes serious moments that rely on quality of writing and drama to carry the story, including some UST between the two OCs and touching moments between canon characters. It subverts, averts and lampshades most of the series' tropes and includes some well-written fight scenes. Written in 2009, including mythology gags about [[ResidentEvil3 RE3]] and [[ResidentEvilDeadAim Dead Aim]], it is finished, but on a cliffhanger at the outro of [[ResidentEvil0 RE0]].

* ''Synopsis'': Follows Kenneth Feng, a young intern at the RPD who finds himself in the background of both the game's canon, as well as with the OCs of several other author's fan characters, resulting in an unusual fan-made {{Expanded Universe}} that's [[YourMileageMayVary arguably]] BetterThanCanon.

* ''Synopsis'': AU from the end of RE 5, where Sheva dies, Jill remains Wesker's puppet,and they escape from Chris to release Uroboros once again...in USA. Soon the virus spreads all over the world, however, it isn't Wesker's victory, more like his complete failure (replace hords of zombies from movies with [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel packs of Uroboros]]. Have fun!). The story describes lives of Jill, Chris, Wesker and Claire (a bit) AfterTheEnd, focusing on their thoughts and emotions.

\n* Just finished this. Absolutely amazing, writing is brilliant and characters are very deep and emotional. First thing first though, definitely AU and pretty heavy OOCness (as was noted above) especially from the middle to the end of the story. However, this works heavily in the story's favor, as it helps develop the characters into people so much more richer and realistic than whatever the game presents us with.

\n*Thirding. I just devoured this thing. The above description is accurate, however. Say yes if you like angst, symbolism, screwed-up Jill/Wesker goodness, and AU interpretations that dig deeper into the characters than canon does. Say no if you dislike OOCness, oppressively gray moods (it's post-apocalyptic), fanfic that takes itself (too?) seriously, and fanon details that screw with the canon timeline just enough to make the whole story - even the pre-RE5 bits - taste like AU. Still a solid rec from this troper.

\n* Hmm I'm second, but somewhat relunctantly. Portions of the fanfic are very well written, almost haunting, and can give some interesting insight on Jill and especially Wesker. But somewhere around chapter 10 or 13 it takes a bit of a nose dive and slows down considerably with occasional highlights of good writing with huge revelations. The characters are OOC, terribly so with Chris who has been interpreted into a bit of a dirty cop. Wesker starts to become rather mood swingy around this point and just a little StalkerWithACrush though this may be the point. Jill is also not herself, but it's implied this is because of prolonged time around Wesker. So it's a mixed bad of very good and for some very bad. The characters have been derailed, slowly, but this may have been the intention of the author. YMMV though, it's still worth the read for the first set of chapters.

* Synopsis: After discovering the salvaged body of Albert Wesker being revived by Tricell, Sherry breaks her old captor/caretaker out of the corporation's grasp, becoming an international fugitive in the process.
* Comments: It seems to be developing rather nicely. Everyone seems to be in character, and it's nice to see a (somewhat) softer side of the super-villain that is Wesker.
