Ethan Winters

Ethan Winters is a character from the Resident Evil fandom.

Character
Ethan was an American systems engineer, who married his wife, Mia, in 2011. An ordinary, run-of-the-mill kind of guy, after Mia goes missing for three years and is discovered to be alive in 2017, Ethan goes to find her. He unknowingly enters into the world of bioterrorism, beginning with the Baker House Incident in Dulvey, Louisiana. Ethan and Mia were rescued by the Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance (B.S.A.A.) and were placed under witness protection in Eastern Europe.

Despite being infected with the Mold, a fungal superorganism Ethan encountered in Dulvey, he and Mia welcomed their daughter, Rosemary, in 2020. However when Rose was 6 months old, she is kidnapped and taken to a remote mountainous village. It’s there Ethan once again shows his selflessness and determination he showed back in 2017 for his wife to this time search for/rescue his daughter. Ethan was successful in saving his daughter, but also gave his life in the prosses when his body began breaking down, unable to repair itself from a fatal wound. Through sheer willpower alone, Ethan kept himself together until he knew Rose was safe.
