Leon S. Kennedy
Leon debuted in Resident Evil 2 (1998) as one of the game's two protagonists, along with Claire Redfield.
In the story, he is a rookie cop who arrives in town just after the T-virus zombie outbreak started, and he meets Claire by chance when she is being chased by zombies.
They escape to the Raccoon City Police Department and manage to find a way to get into the sewage system, and arrive at the Umbrella Corporation underground research complex responsible for the viral outbreak.
Leon meets Ada Wong, a mysterious woman eventually revealed as a spy seeking a sample of the G-virus.
During the final confrontation against the T-103 Tyrant that pursues the characters, Ada tosses down a rocket launcher, allowing Leon (or Claire, depending on the scenario) to kill it.
In the end, Leon faces and kills the mutated William Birkin, and escapes from the self-destructing facility along with Claire and Sherry Birkin.
An epilogue obtained after completing Resident Evil 3: Nemesis reveals that Leon later joined the U.S. federal government.
In Resident Evil Code: Veronica (2000), Claire contacts Leon to relay information to her brother Chris while stuck on Rockfort Island.
Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles (2009) features re-imaginings of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil: Code Veronica, as well as a new midquel scenario set in 2002 and involving Leon and Jack Krauser on a mission to search for Javier Hidalgo, an ex-drug lord who had been reported to be approaching Umbrella.
Leon was the protagonist of Resident Evil 4 (2005).
In 2004, Leon is a special agent assigned to rescue the U.S. President's daughter, Ashley Graham, who is being held somewhere in Europe.
Her kidnappers turn out to be part of a cult known as Los Illuminados, which has taken control of the local villagers using parasites known as Las Plagas.
As he searches for Ashley, Leon is also captured and injected with Las Plagas.
With help from Ada and an Illuminados researcher Luis Sera, Leon is able to remove Las Plagas from his body and rescue Ashley while confronting the cult.
At the climax of the game, Leon kills the cult leader Osmund Saddler, but is forced to give a Plagas sample to Ada, who escapes in a helicopter, leaving Leon and Ashley to escape using a PWC.
Leon is one of the protagonists in Resident Evil 6 (2012), alongside Chris Redfield and Jake Muller, and Ada in the final fourth scenario.
While the game has four playable characters with different storylines, Leon was described as the "main main character."
In the game, Leon escapes from Tall Oaks, another American town overrun by zombies, following a bioterrorist attack that killed the new U.S. President Adam Benford.
Leon teams up with a fellow survivor and President Benford's bodyguard, the Secret Service agent Helena Harper, to expose the conspiracy that led to the incident.
In the later parts of the game, Leon reunites with a grown-up Sherry Birkin, who has become an operative for the U.S. government's Division of Security Operations, and the also returning Ada Wong, and works to save the world from a global outbreak.
Leon also appears in several non-canonical games in the series.
He stars alongside Barry Burton in the Game Boy Color-only Resident Evil Gaiden (2001).
Along with Claire, Leon is one of two playable characters in the browser and mobile game Resident Evil: Zombie Busters.
In the third-person shooter revisiting the Raccoon City incident, Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City (2012), the players control Umbrella operatives sent to kill any survivors, and certain actions can lead to Leon's death.
He is also a player character in the Heroes mode of this game.
