|| Kevin Ryman ||

__________________
|Basic Information\
-------------------

- Occupation: Police Officer, Raccoon City Police Department (R.P.D.)

- Vitality: 2300 points

- Viral Infection Rate: 1.19% per minute, 84 minutes to 100%

- Personal Item: 45 Auto
A more powerful weapon than the usual handgun, but ammo for this weapon is
scarce. Kevin's custom weapon gives him the advantage in boss fights, so
reserve its usage until encountering a worthwhile foe.

- Extra Item: 45 Auto Magazine
An extra clip of ammunition for Kevin's personal 45 Auto. Hold the L1 button
to quickly reload the 45 Auto. The magazine can be refilled by combining it
with 45 Auto Rounds.

- Bio: Officer Ryman works for the Raccoon City Police Department. He
possesses superior athletic abilities and is an outstanding shot. A all
around good guy, he's a dyed-in-the-wool optimist who doesn't dwell on petty
matters. His happy go lucky personality sometimes works against him. He has
failed the S.T.A.R.S. selection process twice.

- Characteristics: Kevin is the fastest of all the characters, which is
useful for hurrying through scenarios in the fastest possible time. His
powerful custom 45 Auto and unique unarmed attacks make him an excellent
character choice for beginning players and action oriented players alike.

________________
|Special Actions\
-----------------

- Kick
Hold the R1 button and press Cancel to execute a swift kick. Use it to knock
enemies backward just as they are about to attack. When used properly, it
creates enough room to aim a firearm or prepare a knife attack. The kick can
also be used to kick down locked doors and open locked wall panels.

- Critical Shot
Hold the R1 button for a long moment while equipped with a Handgun or the 45
Auto. Soon, Kevin will readjust his aim. If you wait to fire until after
Kevin has readjusted, his aim is better and the resulting shot causes more
damage to an enemy. This is not effective for rifles.

- Elbow Tackle
Hold the R1 button and press Circle when no weapon is equipped. Kevin lunges
further and knocks down enemies more easily with this move than other player
characters can accomplish with standard Tackle attacks.

==================
|| Mark Wilkins ||
==================

__________________
|Basic Information\
-------------------

- Occupation: Security Guard

- Vitality: 3000 points

- Viral Infection Rate: 1.31% per minute, 76 minutes to 100%

- Personal Item: Costume Handgun
Mark's personal automatic is similar to the other handguns found commonly
throughout the game. Although Mark's Custom Handgun inflicts slightly less
damage per attack, the barrel has been modified to inflict more damage at
longer range.

- Extra Item: Handgun Magazine
An extra clip for Mark's Handgun, this clip enables faster reloading. Hold
the L1 button to quickly reload Mark's Handgun. The Handgun Magazine can be
refilled by combining it with Handgun Rounds.

- Bio: Currently working for a security company in Raccoon City, Mark is a
Vietnam veteran. Approximately 50 years old, his robust strength has not
diminished. He has tasted the emptiness of war and now, more than anything,
he just wants to live in peace.

- Characteristics: Mark, who possesses the highest vitality points, is the
strongest character in the game. On his own, he can move heavy objects that
normally require two players to move. Due to his size he is the second
slowest player character in the game, and he cannot hide inside lockers or
closets.

________________
|Special Actions\
-----------------

- Guard
Hold the R1 button and press Cancel to guard against enemy attacks. Mark can
fend off common attacks from most frequently encountered foes. However, his
virus meter still increases due to the contact. Strong attacks from unique
boss enemies may still cause damage to Mark even while he is guarding.

- Full Swing
Hold the R1 button while equipped with a melee weapon that swings, such as an
Iron Pipe, Long Pole, or a Crutch. Continue holding the R1 button until Mark
raises the melee weapon higher than usual. This indicates tat Mark is ready
to perform a "full swing", causing more damage than the normal melee weapon
attack.

|| Jim Chapman ||
=================

__________________
|Basic Information\
-------------------

- Occupation: Subway Transit System Employee

- Vitality: 1800 points

- Viral Infection Rate: 1.43% per minute, 70 minutes to 100%

- Personal Item: Coin
While hanging around a location that is free of enemies, select Jim's coin
and use it. Jim produces his coin and flips it into the air. The result is
displayed on screen. Each time the coin comes up "Heads", Jim's rate of
critical hits increases 10%. Therefore, if you flip the coin three times in a
row and achieve "Heads" each time, Jim's critical hit rate rises by 30%!
However, if the coin comes up "Tails", the bonus is reset to 0%. Used wisely,
the Coin can turn Jim into a real killing machine!

- Extra Item: Lucky Coin
When Jim or any character possesses this item, the chance of critical hit
occurrence rises 5%, the durability of melee weapons becomes stronger, and
Handguns and Shotguns cannot be broken by a Hunter's attack. AIPC Jim rarely
agrees to trade this item for anything, and players controlling Jim should
hold onto the Lucky Coin rather than drop it in favor of other items.

- Bio: An agent with the Raccoon City subway, Jim is friendly and cheerful
but sometimes reveals a hesitant side. Although he means well, he talks too
much and sometimes bothers people around him. To his credit, he has strong
powers of intuition and is skillful at solving puzzles.

- Characteristics: Jim is an average person in a very unique situation.
Guided by fear and cowardice, his greatest skill is his ability to avoid
attacks by pretending to be dead. Although playing as Jim takes some getting
used to, a keen player soon realizes that the subway worker presents great
advantages as a character choice.

________________
|Special Actions\
-----------------

- Playing Dead
Hold the R1 button, the press and hold the X button. This causes Jim to fall
to the ground and remain motionless. Enemies will ignore him while he is
playing dead, so it is useful when surrounded. However, don't overuse this
skill, as the virus gauge increases more rapidly while he plays dead. By the
way, if an enemy lands on top of Jim or punched Jim on the ground, Jim can
still get hurt so be careful!

- Swing Combo
Hold the R1 button and press Circle to swing a melee weapon such as an Iron
Pipe, Long Pole or Crutch. Press Circle again the moment Jim finishes his
first swing to immediately perform another. This special action leaves Jim
breathless for a moment, so use it with caution.

- Item Search
Even when Jim enters a room for the first time, the positions of the items in
the room are indicated on the map by a question mark. The type of item is not
specified, however, until the item is examined. This unique feature enables
Jim to find items faster than other characters, especially hidden or unseen
items.

|----------------------------------------------------------------|
| Arm Swing            | 200-230 | 500-530 | 600-630 | 700-730   |
+----------------------------------------------------------------+

Strategy: Attack this boss as soon as possible but don't get too close to it.
Kevin and Alyssa type should use the potshot ability. Collect all the weapons
in this area but don't use them (Save it for stronger bosses). Use the
Handgun and Shotgun for this boss and ignore the small mutator embryo (focus
on the big guy).

===========
Giant Leech
===========

Vitality Points:
+----------------------------------+
| Easy | Normal | Hard | Very Hard |

|----------------------------------------------------------------|
| Poison Liquid        | 40-50   | 80-100  | 100-120 | 100-170   |
+----------------------------------------------------------------+

Strategy: Be careful of the poison liquid because it can poison you so have a
blue herb in your inventory before you attack it. Only attack when the Giant
Leech is not underwater. Avoid using tackle or melee weapon but tackling it
will cause 4 times the normal damage against the Giant Leech.

Strategy: Blast the monster with shotgun or handgun. Only attack her with
melee weapon when you don't have a choice but make sure you got something
like a spear or hammer.

|---------------------------------------------------------------|
| Direct Attack       | 160-200 | 180-220 | 200-240 | 260-400   |
+---------------------------------------------------------------+

Strategy: Run to the stairs and fight him there because he rarely attack when
he is standing on the stairs. Aim up to his chest and use melee weapon
because it does more damage. Remember never to stop attacking him because he
can use his instant kill move on you. Use knives and hammers on him.

==========
Thantos R
=========


Vitality Points:
+------------------------------------------------+
| Easy      | Normal    | Hard      | Very Hard  |
--------------------------------------------------
| 3500-7800 | 3800-8500 | 4000-9200 | 4200-10000 |
+------------------------------------------------+

Attack Power:
+---------------------------------------------------------------+
| Attack              | Easy    | Normal  | Hard    | Very Hard |
-----------------------------------------------------------------
| Arm Swing           | 120-150 | 250-280 | 300-330 | 450-480   |
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
| Kick                | 180-210 | 250-280 | 300-330 | 450-480   |
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
| Shacking Arm Blow   | 300-330 | 400-440 | 450-480 | 500-540   |
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
| Jump Attack         | 220-250 | 380-420 | 500-530 | 650-680   |
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
| Direct Attack       | 160-200 | 180-220 | 200-240 | 260-400   |
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
| Dash Attack         | 100-130 | 180-220 | 200-240 | 260-400   |
+---------------------------------------------------------------+

Strategy: Remember when I told you that save the powerful weapons later? Yeah
this is the final and the hardest battle for Showdown 1. Move and run
everytime he jumps into the air so he won't land on you. Use melee weapons
such as knives because it works better and faster. Many of Thantos's arm
attacks can be avoided by performing a tackle or special attack at the moment
it attempts to strike.
