Carlos Oliveira

Lore & Background

Carlos Oliveira is a member of the Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure Service (U.B.C.S.), a private military company employed by Umbrella Corporation. He is one of three surviving U.B.C.S. members Jill encounters during her escape from Raccoon City, alongside Mikhail Victor and Nikolai Zinoviev. After Jill is infected with the T-virus by Nemesis and falls unconscious, Carlos finds her and takes her to safety within the Clock Tower. Three days later, he locates a vaccine for Jill's T-virus infection in a nearby Umbrella owned hospital, then returns and administers it to her, saving her life. Later, at an abandoned Umbrella factory at the edge of town, Carlos meets up with Jill and tells her that the U.S. government is planning to launch an experimental thermobaric missile into Raccoon City to eradicate the T-virus infestation. After Jill defeats Nemesis with a large prototype railgun, she meets up with Carlos and they escape the city via a helicopter. If the previous escape chopper was stolen by Nikolai, Jill and Carlos instead meet up with S.T.A.R.S. Alpha Team's weapons specialist Barry Burton, who helps them escape in his helicopter.

In Their Own Story

On September 28, 1998, Jill Valentine encounters three surviving members of the Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure Service (U.B.C.S.): Carlos Oliveira, Mikhail Victor, and Nikolai Zinoviev. After Nikolai explains that a rescue helicopter can be contacted if they reach the city's Clock Tower, the group works together to repair a cable car. When they are finished, Nikolai goes missing and is presumed dead. Nemesis corners the remaining members onto the car as they head to the tower. Mikhail sacrifices himself with a grenade, causing the car to crash into the tower's central courtyard and separating Jill and Carlos briefly. At the Clock Tower, Jill summons a helicopter by ringing the bell before being confronted by Nemesis, which destroys the helicopter and infects Jill with the T-virus. Jill manages to temporarily defeat Nemesis but falls unconscious. Carlos finds Jill and takes her to safety within the Clock Tower. Three days later, he finds a vaccine for Jill's T-virus infection in a nearby Umbrella owned hospital, then returns and administers it to her, saving her. After Jill regains consciousness on the morning of October 1, 1998, she proceeds towards the Raccoon Park and eventually reaches an abandoned Umbrella factory at the edge of town. Inside the factory, Jill meets up with Carlos, who tells her that the U.S. government is planning to launch an experimental thermobaric missile into Raccoon City. After Jill defeats Nemesis with a large prototype railgun, she meets up with Carlos and they escape the city via a helicopter. If the previous escape chopper was stolen by Nikolai, Jill and Carlos instead meet up with S.T.A.R.S. Alpha Team's weapons specialist Barry Burton, who helps them escape in his helicopter. At sunrise, the missile vaporizes Raccoon City.
