Uriaș

Uriaș is a giant mutated Lycan that appears as a boss in Resident Evil Village. Originally the chief of the isolated mountain village where the game takes place, he was implanted with a Cadou parasite by Mother Miranda and turned into this troll-esque beast.

The name "Uriaș" is derived from the Romanian term for "giant".

History
As part of her research into developing a superhuman host for the consciousness of her daughter Eva, Miranda created the parasitic Cadou based on the Mold and implanted several villagers with these nematodes. Most of the test subjects mutated into Lycans, but one subject grew to enormous size and possessed immense strength. This creature, dubbed "Uriaș", became Miranda's enforcer and the alpha of the Lycan pack.

In 2021, Ethan Winters came to the village in search of his kidnapped daughter. Shortly after arriving, he was attacked by the Lycan horde with Uriaș leading the charge. Before the monsters could make the kill, they retreated back to their lair, called by a signal from Miranda, who had taken an interest in Ethan and wanted him alive.

Later on, after Ethan had obtained three of the flasks containing Rose's crystallized body parts, he entered the dilapidated stronghold where the Lycans had made their den. After fighting his way through many Lycans, he confronted Uriaș in the depths of the old fortress. After a heated battle, Ethan managed to kill the giant, who crystallized upon death.

Appearance
Uriaș stands at 20 feet tall, wearing a dirty grey coat, shirt, trousers and boots. His head is mostly covered by a thick mane of grey hair, with only his face unobscured. He wields a large, metallic war-hammer, the head of which is adorned with spikes and stained with blood.

Abilities

 * Superhuman Size and Strength - Uriaș possesses great strength as he can lift his heavy metal hammer without much effort and can also pick up and knock down large stone beams. He is also surprisingly agile for a creature of his size, though understandably not as agile as a regular Lycan.
 * Heightened Endurance - Uriaș is capable of withstanding a considerable amount of physical punishment. He can shrug off handgun and shotgun fire with ease, but is more vulnerable to Magnum rounds and explosives.

Variants
Uriaș is not the only giant Lycan mutation created by Miranda; two other giants - Uriaș Drac - reside in the village while the Uriaș Străjer guards the cavern containing the Megamycete.
