Hunk
“
This is war, survival is your responsibility.
”
Special Agent HUNK is the codename of an Umbrella Security Service Commando, leader of the ill fated Alpha Team in the service of the Umbrella Corporation.
HUNK is highly prestigious and has a considerable reputation, as on the incredibly dangerous missions he and his men are normally sent on, HUNK is often the only one who returns alive, always successful. As such, HUNK is regarded as Death incarnate; or simply "Mr. Death", to which he believes is true as "The Death Cannot die". It is unknown what has became of HUNK following the fall of Umbrella. HUNK has been featured as a behind-the-scenes character in the series, but has a considerable effect on history. HUNK and his team were ordered to journey to Raccoon City and recover a sample of G-virus, a very potent mutagen. The Umbrell Corporation ordered the team to recover the virus from William Birkin, the virus' creator, who was secretly conspiring to deliver the virus to the U.S. government.
HUNK and his men infiltrated Birkin's lab in the outskirts of Raccoon City, only to find Birkin was ready for them with a loaded handgun. HUNK initially tried to reason with the paranoid scientist, but Birkin was adamant in not surrendering his life's work. One of HUNK's comrades suddenly became startled when Birkin knocked an item off a table, and opened fire on Birkin, hitting him in the right torso several times. HUNK berated his subordinate for nearly damaging the virus, and left Birkin's workstation with samples of the virus. With their main objective complete, the team headed into the sewer to reach their extraction point.
While en route, they were confronted by Birkin, who had injected himself with a sample of the G-Virus shortly after his confrontation with HUNK. Birkin, now a horrifically-mutated monstrosity named "G", relentlessly pursued the commandos and exacted revenge. After finishing off HUNK's team, Birkin crushed several vials of t and G-virus from the spilled-open sample case, and subsequently sewer rats spread the virus throughout the city via the sewer network.
Only HUNK survived Birkin's attack. He was unfazed by his comrades' demise, and focused his efforts on returning a sample of the G-virus to Umbrella. After regaining contact with his team's helicopter pilot, HUNK arranged to meet him on the roof of the Police Station. Hunk used limited ammunition wisely and with his cold-blooded attitude he managed to reach the roof top without any hesitation.
As he made his way to safety, the open channel of HUNK's radio picked up a wide variety of transmissions e.g. the police's doomed attempts to fight the zombies, the last broadcast of a surrounded radio station, advertisements for various Umbrella products, and even the dying pleas of Goblin 6, a fellow USS Commando, being overrun by the zombies and creatures, with HUNK refusing to assist her, due to strict orders. After making his way through the precinct, HUNK reached the roof, set off a flare, and was extracted by helicopter and successfully escaped Raccoon City.HUNK is a playable character in the The Mercenaries minigame in Resident Evil 4. His appearance differs from Resident Evil 2, as he now wears an elongated gas mask with red eyeholes (which was to be his canonical appearance from then on). He also has a radio maski-taped to his back. He is armed with customized TMP, which bears remarkable resemblance to Krauser's TMP used in the fight against Leon, the difference is that Hunk's has a folding stock. It does not look like Leon's or Ada's Steyr TMP, but rather a new design, a Brügger & Thomet MP9. It has a large, rectangular laser, mounted to the right of the barrel, with a wire running to the foregrip as well as the previously mentioned folding stock, a foregrip with an extension, a non-protruding barrel, and a slightly elongated magazine. The Stats for HUNK's TMP are:
He is also armed with 50 extra TMP rounds, three Hand Grenades, and a First Aid Spray. This light load keeps Hunk's case very open and uncluttered, with an extra 42 spaces free (10x4+2}, although it is unlikely that his case will be filled completely during the course of a mission. HUNK has 7 bars of life, and can take a fair beating, but is not by any means the most resilient Mercenary. Only Ada is weaker, with 6.5 bars. He can take 5 hits from normal villagers before succumbing, and only 3 from stronger enemies, such as stun-baton wielders and Garrador strikes.
HUNK also has two special moves, like every other Mercenary. When an enemy has taken a hit to the head and is stumbling, he uses the powerful Neckbreaker move, which instantly kills the suspect with a powerful neck-snap. This is capable of killing the two Bella Sisters instantly, but it cannot be used on the other bosses, including J.J., Super-Salvador, and the Garradr. When an enemy gets hit in the calf or kneecaps and falls to their knees, HUNK can use the Riot Kick, a single, powerful kick which can knock an enemy back several yards. Although this can break up a group of enemies, it is usually not a one hit kill, which makes the Neckbreaker the preferred move. Since HUNK's TMP burns ammo quickly, a skillful player must rely on HUNK's takedowns more than any other character to survive, HUNK also does NOT have a knife, thus a player cannot simply slash a Ganado in-order to perform a neckbreaker move.
