Pirahnas that were administered the t-virus by the Sacred Snakes. 1 2
History
Initially encountered by Leon S. Kennedy and Jack Krauser during Operation Javier in 2002, these t-virus infected Pirahnas were one of many B.O.W.s utilized by Javier Hidalgo. During the Mixcoatl attack, hordes of them were released from Javier Dam, sealing the village's fate.
They were initially bred as fighting fish, and were used as one of Javier's death penalties for traitors. The creature itself is not a "real" B.O.W., but due to their considerable attack power they were commonly used against traitors to Javier's organization.
Attributes
Unlike normal pirahnas, these creations can survive out of water for a short period of time. They glide along the surface of the water and attack victims with heightened ferociousness by leaping from the water towards their prey.
