Sherry Birkin
Sherry Birkin is a 26-year-old U.S. agent working under the direct command of a U.S. presidential aide. She is one of only a handful of people to survive the Raccoon City Incident in 1998. During the incident, Sherry was infected by the G-Virus. While she survived exposure to the virus itself, the U.S. government took her into custody to monitor how the virus would affect her physiology. Thus began her time as human guinea pig, poked and prodded by curious scientists and government officials.
In 2009, she was inexplicably offered a position as a special agent in the employ of the United States. She quickly assented in order to escape her life of forced imprisonment, even though in practice she was still under the watchful eye of the government.
She lacks the experience of more seasoned agents, but she can still hold her own against Jake Muller, and she's capable of providing the emotional support he has lacked for most of his life. In spite of the tragedy she has witnessed, she still believes implicitly in the good of people.
