Sergei Vladimir
the head of Umbrella's armed forces
A former Colonel of the Soviet Union military, Sergei retained that title as a nickname after
being discharged by the army.
Following the fall of his homeland, he approached the Umbrella Corporation and quickly became
one of the company's top executives. He became personally acquainted with Umbrella founder
Ozwell E. Spencer, who began to rely on Sergei as a loyal and effective enforcer.
Sergei subsequently formed and led Umbrella's militia, the Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure
Service, as well as Umbrella's internal espionage organization, Monitor.
