Curien’s mad experiements are on the loose throughout the entire mansion grounds that you will encounter in the first game of the series. Not only they are created to kill, they also have names as well.
“Yes!… these are the kinds of breakthrough results that are possible when experiments are carried out scientifically, without undue mushy sentiment for the human test subjects or other ridiculous ethical qualms…” (journal entry) ~ Dr. Curien
Sam (TYPE A-1)
The most orthodox zombie. You will encounter him at various locations.
Well in a group because they are infested, and if you let your guard down, may also be enclosed. Their appearance is not only one type. The main method of attack is to bite.
Curien’s Notes: The Sam series is where it all got started. The rotting-zombie stagger, the dangling intestines, the lovely cyanotic blue – in some way I consider it to be my masterpiece. That’s why I made so many of them. I’ve given them free run of the DBR grounds, and am sure they’ll greet you with great hospitality in the best Curien tradition.
Nail (TYPE A-2)
His damage pattern is as same as Sam, but he can move more quickly. He is often suddenly appear from the shadows. In many cases, he strike while rush, or bite you. You will see him at every stage except the final stage.
Cyril (TYPE A-3)
His weapon is the hatchets of two in both hands. His damage pattern is as same as Sam. He strikes with a hatchet or throws it from a distance. You can shot it down. He goes away after throwing own hatchets.
Kageo (TYPE B-1)
Zombie whom the skin has mummified. The character design is modeled on a Japanese. Main method of attack is to bite or strike. He beat on the left hand or right hand or both hands.(at random) His motion is slow.
Curien’s Notes: After my experience with those gloppy Ebitans, I decided to try out something a little drier for a change. So I cooked up this Kageo series, loosely based on a Japanese model I ran across in a trade journal. They seem to favor humid spots, to keep from drying out, and they like to attack by biting. But then, who among us doesn’t?
Bourbon (TYPE B-2)
He looks green because his whole body is wrapped in moss. He is often suddenly emerge from behind a pillar. Dank place is liked by them. His stamina is more than Kageo. The main method of attack is strike with both hands. In some cases, it’s better for you to shot the hand than the head.
Ebitan a (TYPE B-3)
His whole body is corrupt, the skin is sore. He can live in water. Therefore the advance of corruption of his body is early. Main method of attack is to bite. He rush to the player, or jump from the water.
Curien’s Notes: I don’t know exactly what happened here – I was really just puttering around the lab, seeing what I could come up with, and the Ebitan series is the result. I like to consider it a learning experience, not a mistake. Granted, they’re hideously ugly and they melt – but they have some flaws as well. For one thing, I can’t keep them out of the swimming pool.
Ebitan b (TYPE B-4)
He lost the lower half of the body because his body is rotten than Ebitan_a. He is hanging on the ceiling of the passage. Or slash you with a knife from above. He has the ability to defend own face from your attack with a knife.
Robert (TYPE D-4)
