Protagonist (Re:CODE Online)

The **Protagonist** is the playable protagonist of *Resident Evil Re:CODE Online*. In the opening cutscene, twin siblings escape the Rockfort Island prison block. The player gets to choose either **Dylan** (male) or **Rachel** (female) as the protagonist and Protagonist's Sibling went on separate paths. Depending on the player's choice, the Protagonist sets out on a journey to the newly rebuilt Raccoon City and reunite with the Protagonist's sibling.

Although players can choose the name they want to be referred by, the Protagonist's Sibling refers to the Protagonist by their real name, regardless of their custom name.

## Appearance

The Protagonist is a female with twin-tailed light brown hair and blue eyes. She wears a black and dark blue Rockfort jacket with a grey hoodie and a pink dress. The male version of the Protagonist, by default, has short light brown hair and blue eyes. He wears a black and dark blue Rockfort jacket with a grey hoodie and a red shirt underneath and black pants with metal knee pads.

## Personality

The Protagonist's personality is determined primarily by the player themselves through dialogue options.

Their personality can range from stoic, humble and helpful to boastful, lazy and short-tempered. Regardless of the player's in-game decisions, all of the playable characters view the Protagonist in a positive light. There are instances of single speech options or similar options which give a glimpse at their personality overall. They will take on any job as long as they get paid for their services.

Due to their experiences in Rockfort Island, the Protagonist is immediately on guard at the mere mention of them. They also show significant concern for their sibling, as their initial goal was to find and rendezvous with them. Even after becoming aware of their situation, they still ultimately resolve to see the world for themselves.

As shown during multiple cutscenes the protagonist is seen engaging in friendly exchanges with their crew members and trusted associates such as Andy Anderson and Rico Dawnes. During the Umbrella Hideout Lab Raid, when the crew assembles to tackle the finale, the squad leader will pretend to shut the door on the last crew member before allowing them in with a silent laugh. When Andy calls the crew to discuss the Inferin Heist Job, he dances in front of them, asking if he looks like a model to which one of the protagonists plays along and agrees with a minor dance of their own. During the same heist when Andy discusses stealing the Ducati motorcycles from the automobile shop, the crew are seen humored by Andy's ditsy actions and trying to hide their laughter by turning away from him. After setting up their penthouse, Rita Revant, known as Rose Anderson, gives a tour to the protagonist, once they reach the office Rose will clarify she keeps the illicit actions done in the penthouse secret with "Hear no evil, see no evil." In the B.O.W. Factory Raid initial cutscene, the player uses Rico's pen as support when he's explaining his extremely detailed and meticulous plan to the group. The pen is later taken away when Rico finishes by Rita Greco. The player also appears to enjoy Mark Lambert rapping on the microphone in Shooting Star Records Studios during the mission TerraSave Chronicles - Medicine Capital.
