Alfred Ashford in Resident Evil: Code Veronica

Alfred is a main antagonist in Resident Evil– Code: Veronica. He is command of the Antarctica Base. He is the twin of Alexia Ashord, both of whom were created through genetic experiments. He helped his sister put herself in stasis, but in her absence, Alfred’s mental stability deteriorated. He formed a second persona, Alexia, and wears women’s clothing to commune with his absent sister. It is also reported that the game hints at an incestuous relationship between the twins.

A video of him as Alfred is below.
