Also known as the Umbrella Research Center. The Umbrella Management Training Facility was built along with the Ecliptic Express rail system and the Arklay Research Facility within the Arklay Mountains and was completed in August 1968. It's purpose was to train future officers, executives and researchers of Umbrella, who would be the future of the company. The facility's first General Manager was James Marcus, one of the co-founders of Umbrella. Despite being head of the facility, Marcus cared very little about the actual training of staff. Instead, the facility was used by Marcus as a research lab for the Progenitor virus, and many Progenitor B.O.W.s were created here, such as the Eliminator and Plague Crawler. The training facility was also the site of the genesis of the T-virus after it's successful development by Marcus in January 1978. However, after the successful seizure of the virus the facility was shut down the following July. Despite this, Marcus remained behind and continued his research in the abandoned facility. Ten years later in 1988, Marcus was assasinated in an effort to obtain his research. With his death, the facility was abandoned completely for another ten years. During this time, Marcus' prized leeches managed to resurrect his will in the form of the Queen Leech. Soon, the facility became infested with the leeches, along with countless abandoned B.O.W.s. This facility is also where Albert Wesker and William Birkin began their careers, and the two were the only ones to ever attract the attention of Dr. Marcus, who took a personal interest in them. The two would later retrieve a sample of the T-virus for Ozwell E. Spencer shortly after it's completion, leading to the facility's closure. In 1998, Umbrella commenced the Reclamation Project under the leadership of Albert Wesker and William Birkin. However, the first investigation unit was wiped out by the leeches infesting the facility while the second investigation unit on route to the facility on the Ecliptic Express was also wiped out in the middle of the Arklay Forest by the same leeches. As Wesker and Birkin watched events unfold behind the scenes and discovered Marcus' involvement, Wesker left to rejoin the S.T.A.R.S. Alpha Team while Birkin set off the self-destruct sequence in the facility, rendering the birthplace of the T-virus a mass of rubble on the morning of July 24th. |
