Where did Lisa Trevor come from?

the introduction of Lisa Trevor was one of the biggest changes from the remake of the first Resident Evil. Originally released for the GameCube in 2002, this version reworked the original title of PlayStation 1 like a gothic horror, departing (slightly) from the B-film footprint of the franchise’s precursor. In addition to the focus on a very heavy and tense atmosphere, the Capcom modified some scares and added enemies to ensure that even veterans of the saga were on their toes.
That’s where it comes in Lisa Trevor, a narrative arc that was added for the remake. At the pace that the player explores the tenebrous Spencer Mansion, begins to hear strange noises, like guttural moans and dragging chains. To this day, the first appearances of this mysterious figure are chilling – especially when it reveals itself for the first time, and attacks the unprepared player.
The character showed up only in the remake of Resident Evil and in the derivative Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, released for the Nintendo Wii in 2007 (and later for the PlayStation 3). His past, which can be discovered through various text documents, explains that Lisa Trevor is an important figure for the franchise.
victim of the corporation Umbrella, she was the guinea pig that carried the virus Progenitor (which originated the T-Virus), underwent a series of inhuman tests, and also patient zero of the G-Virus, responsible for the monstrous mutation of the scientist William Birkin. The presence of the virus in her organism is so strong that, in addition to the grotesque look, she even managed to survive her own execution, and take refuge in the Arklay Mountains, where Spencer Mansion is located.
