Umbrella B.O.W Files: Leech Zombie



Classification

Accidental B.O.W: "Leech Zombie"
Base Organism
: Human / Leeches



The Leech Zombie or "Leech Man" was a B.O.W. that appeared in Raccoon City during the biohazard caused by the t-virus in September 1998. It is a human corpse controlled by a mass of leeches.

History

The creature appeared in Raccoon General Hospital, where a member of staff was taken over by a mass of leeches which then began to control his body. The leeches then passed onto a different host, a doctor named Hursh.(It is unknown how many Leech Zombies there had ever been, though there had been at least two. At the time that a small group of survivors entered the Hospital to obtain medicine and healing items, at least one existed.)
Eventually, the leeches were killed after being lured into a high-temperature room.

Attributes

The Leech Zombie was extremely nimble, and was able to crawl through the hospital's ventilation system allowing it to appear in almost any section in order to reach prey. After catching prey it would begin to suck their blood. It had only minor intelligence and would ignore prey in favor of more readily available sources of blood. Though it was essentially just a cadaver with leeches, the Leech zombie was significantly stronger as any normal zombie. Leech zombies should not be confused with the Mimicry Marcus, which are individual masses of leeches who assume a humanoid shape.
