NO. 11 EXCELLA GIONNE
The Gionne family Excella grew up in is one of Europe's most famous trading families.
Moreover, since her grandmother was from the Travis family, TRICELL's founding family, her family could be called one of venerable lineage.
Since she was born and raised in a prestigious family, she harbored a deep sense of pride, with her formidable beauty giving her a tendency to look down on those around her (particularly men).
If she were merely an attractive heiress, however, she'd never have reached her current position.
Excella's true essence lies in her brilliant intellect.
In addition to a talent for management she inherited from her father, she skipped grades to major in genetic engineering at university and her talents were highly valued by her grandmother's family business, TRICELL, with her becoming a member of the TRICELL Pharmaceuticals Department at the mere age of 18.
Despite being talented and coming from the founding family though, she herself was still from the minor Gionne family.
She was issued only one of dozens of in-house research teams.
Given her personality and the fact that she abhored being beneath others, this must've been considerably humiliating for her.
It was during this time she was approached by Albert Wesker.
Having taken notice of her talent and temperament, Wesker provided Excella with information on the t-Virus and others he possessed.
This became Excella's surefire arsenal.
With the information and technology she brought to the table, TRICELL's bioweapons development accelerated rapidly.
Furthermore, the collapse of Umbrella, which had boasted the top share on the bioweapons market, was a blessing that allowed TRICELL to smoothly expand their own market share.
It also simultaneously elevated Excella's influence as the most significant contributor to development, and before long her words and actions began influencing even the policies of the entire Pharmaceuticals Department.
This was exactly what Wesker wanted.
Next, Excella demanded the managing director position of the TRICELL Africa Branch.
Using the bioweapons business as a springboard, she employed skilled use of flattery and extortion to successfully obtain this post.
It's easy to imagine Wesker instigated her drama to assume the post of Africa Branch managing director.
Wesker sought to take advantage of Excella's romantic feelings for him, using her and the TRICELL Africa Branch as components of his "Uroboros Project."
The first thing she did when she took office as the Africa Branch managing director was reopen the previously abandoned "Umbrella Africa Laboratory."
This laboratory had been built by Umbrella for the purpose of researching the Progenitor Virus and was an absolutely essential facility for the Uroboros Project's success.
After restoring the lab, she secured research funds for studying the Uroboros Virus while using one of her pawns, Irving, to trade in bioweapons.
Then the Uroboros Project reached its final stage.
Although she dreamed of becoming the queen of the coming new world upon the project's completion, she was administered the Uroboros Virus at the hands of the man who was to be her king, Wesker.
The Uroboros Virus began going out of control when it rejected Excella's genes. She transformed into a giant Uroboros as a result of the virus, which burst through her body and ended her life.

NO. 11 エクセラ·ギオネ
エクセラが育ったギオネ家は、ヨーロッパでも名の通った貿易商の一家である。
また、祖母はトライセルの創業者一族であるトラヴィス家の出身であるため、由緒ある血筋の一族の出身と言える。
名家で生まれ育ったその出自ゆえにプライドが高く、さらにはその美貌から周りの人間(特に男性)を見下す傾向が強い。
だが、ただ見た目が良いだけの富豪令嬢であれば、彼女が今の地位につくことはなかっただろう。
エクセラの本質は、その明晰な頭脳にある。
父親譲りの経営の才能に加え、飛び級で入学した大学では遺伝子工学を専攻、その才能は祖母の実家が経営するトライセルからも高く評価され、わずか18歳の時にトライセル製薬部門の一員となることとなった。
だが、いくら創業者一族出身で才能豊かとは言え、彼女自身は傍流のギオネ家の出身である。
社内で何十もある研究チームの1つを与えられたにすぎなかった。
人の風下に立つことを良しとしない彼女の性格を考えると、これは相当な屈辱だったに違いない。
そのような時に彼女に接近してきたのがアルバート·ウェスカーである。
ウェスカーは、彼女の才能とその気性に目を付け、自らが持つt-ウィルスなどの情報をエクセラに提供した。
これらは、エクセラの確かな武器となった。
彼女がもたらした情報と技術により、トライセルの生物兵器開発は飛躍的な発展を遂げた。
さらに、生物兵器市場でのトップシェアを誇っていたアンブレラの崩壊という幸運も重なり、トライセルは順調にシェアを拡大していったのである。
そして、それは開発における最大の功労者であるエクセラの発言力も同時に高めていき、いつしか、彼女の言動は製薬部門全体の方針さえも左右するようになっていた。
これは、ウェスカーの狙い通りの結果でもあった。
次にエクセラは、トライセル·アフリカ支社の支社長のポストを要求。
生物兵器事業を材料に甘言、恫喝を巧みに使い分け、まんまとこのポストを手中にするのであった。
このアフリカ支社長への就任劇がウェスカーの差し金であったことは、想像に難くない。
ウェスカーは、エクセラが持つ自身への恋愛感情を利用し、「ウロボロス計画」にエクセラとトライセル·アフリカ支社を利用しようとしていたのだ。
彼女がアフリカ支社長に就任してまず行ったのは、すでに遺棄されていた「アンブレラ·アフリカ研究所」を復活させることであった。
この研究所は、アンブレラにより始祖ウィルス研究のために建設されたもので、ウロボロス計画完遂のためには絶対に必要な施設である。
研究所復活後は、手駒の一つであるアーヴィングを用いて生物兵器の売買を行い、研究資金の確保をしつつウロボロス·ウィルスの研究を行っていった。
そして、ウロボロス計画は最終段階を迎える。
彼女自身は計画終了後に訪れる新世界での女王の地位を夢見ていたが、王となる男、ウェスカーの手によりウロボロス·ウィルスを投与されてしまう。
ウロボロス·ウィルスはエクセラの遺伝子を拒絶すると暴走を開始。体を突き破ったウィルスにより巨大なウロボロスに変貌した彼女は、その生涯を終えた。

EXCELLA GIONNE
The Gionne family is well known and respected throughout Europe for their successful export-important business. Her grandmother being from the Travis family, the founders of Tricell, has endowed Excella with quite a noble and storied lineage. Blessed with model-like beauty and raised in such an aristocratic family has led her being haughty towards those around her, especially men.
But it was neither Excella's looks or family background that got her to where she is today.
Gifted with a keen intellect and inheriting her father's business acumen, Excella quickly breezed through school and enrolled in a unversity at a young age. There she majored in genetic engineering, and her talents were recognized by her grandmother's family. With her connections she was able to enter Tricell's pharmaceutical division at the age of eighteen.
Although she was a gifted member of Tricell's founding family, she was still a Gionne, an offshoot of the famed Travis family. Even with all the research teams at Tricell's disposal, she was only given one.
Excella viewed this act as a slight.
While steel feeling indignant over this affront, she was approached by Albert Wesker.
Wesker's interest in Excella was piqued by her intelligence and character. It was at this time he provided her with all the information he had concerning the T-Virus and other research. Excella was now armed with the tools to make the advances to her career that she desired.
She used the information and technology she obtained from Wesker to advance Tricell's bioweapons division exponentially.
In a fortunate turn for Tricell, Umbrella, who had previously dominated the weapons market, had gone bankrupt, greatly increasing Tricell's sway in this area.
Thanks to Excella's efforts in expanding Tricell's market share, she was given more of a voice within the company. Before long, she was making key decisions that would affect the fortunes of the pharmaceutical division.
That was precisely as Wesker had intended.
Excella then set her sights on the position of CEO of the Tricell Africa Division. Her adroit use of flattery and intimidation soon landed her that powerful position.
It is now believed that it was Wesker who suggested Excella take over Tricell Africa. He exploited her romantic interest in him, and was able to use both her and Tricell Africa to further his Uroboros Plan.
Excella's first order of business as Tricell Africa's CEO was to restore the abandoned Umbrella Africa Research Facility. As the facility where research on the Progenitor virus had been carried out, its use in the completion of the Uroboros Plan was vital.
Following the facility's restoration, Ricardo Irving was employed to sell bioweapons in order to secure funding for the research being carried out on the Uroboros Virus.
As the Uroboros Plan was neared completion, Excella began to fancy herself as the queen in the new word order that would follow the plan's execution. Unfortunately for her, those dreams were dashed when the man that was to be her king injected her with the Uroboros Virus.
