Ashley Graham
Encyclopedia : A : AS : ASH : Ashley Graham
Ashley Graham is a fictional character in the video game, Resident Evil 4. She is the daughter of the U.S. President during the events of the game and is kidnapped by a mysterious organization during a homecoming trip. As Leon S. Kennedy, it is the player's objective to determine Ashley's whereabouts and rescue her from her captors.
When the player is with Ashley, it is their duty to protect her from any incoming enemy and prevent her from being taken away. The player can give commands, too.
Background
In 2004, Ashley Graham was kidnapped by Jack Krauser, a mercenary working for Osmund Saddler of Los Illuminados, while coming back home from her college in Massachusetts. She is taken to a remote village somewhere in Europe, where she is apparently held for ransom by Los Illuminados.After receiving intelligence about Ashley's whereabouts (leaked by Ada Wong), the U.S. Government sends agent Leon S. Kennedy to investigate the area. He discovers that the local villagers are actually members of Los Illuminados, converted to their beliefs through parasitic organisms known as Las Plagas. Leon discovered Ashley in a church on the outskirts of the village. Shortly afterwards, the two met with the cult leader, Osmund Saddler, who revealed that Ashley (as well as Leon) was administered with one of the Plaga parasites and that Saddler was planning to return Ashley to the President in order to infiltrate and destroy the U.S. Government from within.
After escaping Saddler and the villagers, the two found their way into Ramon Salazar's castle and later, into Osmund Saddler's island complex. Ashley would repeatedly be recaptured by Los Illuminados during Leon's mission and subsequently rescued each time. Within the island complex, the two found a laser surgery machine built by Luis Sera with the purpose of removing a Plaga internally from its host's body. Leon and Ashley used the machine on themselves, destroying their Plaga parasites and thus, removing Saddler's only leverage on them.
After Saddler was eliminated, Leon and Ashley made their escape from the collapsing island via a jet ski left by Ada. Ashley offered Leon to come over to her place and do some "overtime", which Leon rejected. They supposedly returned to civilization.
Trivia
- If the player climbs up a tall ladder and Ashley follows, the player can jump down before she reaches the top and try to look up her skirt, she will cover herself and angrily inquire to what the player was trying to look at. Also, if the player leaves Ashley on a ledge or any high location and try looking up her skirt, Ashley will try to cover up and react the same way. Logically, Ashley will not respond with her alternate outfit because she wears a pants suit rather than a skirt.
- If an explosion causes Leon to topple on top of Ashley, she will call him a "pervert".
- Carolyn Lawrence voices Ashley, but claimed never to have seen or played the game yet.
