Bio:

Sheva is an agent with the B.S.A.A. West African Branch. She is assigned to the current mission to assist Chris Redfield, who is unfamiliar with the area. A versatile fighter with extensive experience, her ability to use firearms is on par with Chris. Her highly conditioned body allows her to pull off physical attacks that Chris could never do.

At the age of 8, Sheva�s parents died in what appeared to be a factory accident. She later joined an anti-government guerrilla group where she learned that what happened to her parents was much more than a simple accident. The factory was the location of a final test of one of Umbrella's many B.O.W.'s. With the help of the government's army, Umbrella erased Sheva's village and its inhabitants once the test was complete.

Sheva remained with the guerrillas through her childhood. She was 15 when she was contacted by American operatives to stop Umbrella from selling a B.O.W. to the guerrillas. With Sheva's help, the operatives stopped the deal and apprehended the Umbrella salesman. The man who initially contacted Sheva offered her a chance to start her life again in America. Sheva accepted. Within months, Sheva was speaking English like a native and enrolled in a university two years later. After graduation, her benefactor suggested she join the B.S.A.A. While Umbrella had dissolved years before this, Sheva's hatred of Umbrella and all others like them led her to join the B.S.A.A. Sheva was assigned to Josh Stone's unit for eight months for training. Upon completion of her training, B.S.A.A. chose her to become an agent.

Sheva is assigned to work alongside Chris throughout Kijuju to keep the natives from becoming hostile over the fact he's an American. The two are sent to locate a weapons dealer named Ricardo Irving. They manage to track him down, but Irving manages to escape with the help of a mysterious cloaked woman. Chris finds files left behind by Irving with information on his old partner Jill Valentine. Sheva, seeing that she and Chris are outnumbered, pleads with Chris to retreat. Chris tells Sheva how his long-time partner Jill died during a mission to arrest Ozwell E. Spencer of the Umbrella Corporation. Sheva changes her mind once she learns of Jill and sees Chris' determination to find her.

Chris and Sheva trail Irving through sewers and an oil refinery. They manage to track down Irving with the help of Josh Stone, Sheva's friend and mentor. When Chris and Sheva corner Irving on his ship, he injects himself with Uroburos. Chris and Sheva manage to take him down after a difficult battle. With Irving dead, Chris decides to disobey orders to search for Jill, who he now believes to be alive. Sheva accepts Chris' decision and continues her role as his partner.

The pair make their way to abandoned underground research facility formerly used by the Umbrella Corporation. Eventually they discover a large room filled with human bodies contained in pods. Chris uses the computer to locate the pod where Jill would be stored. When they discover the pod Jill was in to be empty, they are threatened by Excella Gionne via video screen. Sheva recognizes Excella as the head of the Tricell Pharmaceutical Company's African division and is outraged to discover that Excella and Tricell are part of the horrible experiments performed at this facility. Sheva also realizes that Excella lied about not knowing where Jill was.

The two track Excella from the facility to underground ruins, though she eventually escapes with the help of the mysterious cloaked woman. This woman is revealed to be none other than Jill herself by Albert Wesker. Together Chris and Sheva are able to remove the mechanism controlling Jill. Jill reveals Wesker's plan to spread Uroburos worldwide and pleads with Chris to stop Wesker.

Sheva and Chris follow Excella and Wesker to a large ship, where they corner Excella. Excella escapes, but not before spilling a briefcase full of vials. Sheva picks up one and takes it with her. Eventually, the two reach a pile of corpses and a weakened Excella. Wesker injected Excella with the Uroburos virus. Excella morphs into a horrible monster and attacks Chris and Sheva.

After disposing of Excella, Chris and Sheva set out after Wesker. On the way, Jill contacts Chris to explain the source of Wesker's strength -- the Uroburos virus. Jill explains that an overdose of the virus would kill Wesker. Sheva realizes that the vial she picked up from Excella briefcase is the virus.

Chris and Sheva rush to Wesker's hangar to confront him. Though powerful, Chris and Sheva outsmart him and inject the virus into his neck. With his body weakening and the two B.S.A.A. members on his tail, Wesker escapes to his jet. Chris and Sheva climb in through the cargo hold to stop Wesker. Mid-flight, Chris opens the cargo hold, sucking Wesker out the back of the jet. A celebration of Wesker's demise is short-lived when Wesker grabs Sheva's leg in an attempt to take her with him. With Chris' aid Sheva is saved and Wesker falls into a volcano.

Severely injured, Wesker has no choice but to use Uroboros on himself and attack the two with amazing strength. After a lengthy fight, Wesker is shot down into the molten magma while Chris and Sheva escape with Jill and Josh. Wesker, however, is not one to give up, and grabs the helicopter leg with his tentacle-like arm. Once again, he is quickly demolished by the combined forces of Chris, Sheva, and a pair of rocket propelled grenades.

Trivia: Sheva is playable through online co-op and offline split-screen. When the game is beaten once, the player can play through the single player game as Sheva with Chris as the AI partner.

She is the first left-handed character in the series. This was done by the developers so that the camera would go over her left shoulder to aim, opposite of Chris, during split screen.

Sheva's tattoo, a tribal design with the word "shujaa" in the middle, means "warrior" or "hero" in Swahili and "brave" or "courageous" in Arabic.

Sheva's character model was based on Australian actress Michelle Van der Water, but her voice and motions were performed by Karen Dyer.
