| - Tyrant T-001 (also refered to as the Proto-Tyrant), an experimental subject, served as the prototype for the later Tyrants. While the t-001 was scheduled to be destroyed, it was released during the viral infection in the subterraanium facility. Shortly thereafter it met S.T.A.R.S. officer Rebecca Chambers during the events of Resident Evil Zero in the B4F Turntable Room., and while classified as a failure, it was nonetheless a powerful opponent. Shortly after Rebecca entered the elevator, the Tyrant recovered and followed Rebecca and Billy. They managed to fight off the beast and "kill" it again. However, its' T regenerative capabilities were underestimated by both Rebecca and Umbrella, and it managed to reach the Marshaling Yard above the underground Laboratory via the train elevator during a fight with Albert Wesker. It's regenerative capabilities also helped it recover and it attacked Wesker again, before being killed for good. Unlike its successors, the T-001s' spinal column was exposed due to its mutations, leaving it extremely vulnerable to small-arms fire from behind. Furthermore, its nervous system was far more primitive than its successors, leading to the T-001s' primitive behaviour lack of coordination, and random twitching.
- Upon discovering a target, the Proto-Tyrant quickly approaches and attacks with its abnormally developed claws. The claw on its right arm developed into a shape reminiscent of an equestrian's spear while its left arm developed into a smaller form with several large claws. Its body suffered severe decomposition as a result of the virus corroding the body, with its skin marred with lesions, missing skin and necrotic patches. Like the final model, it also possessed an exposed heart on its chest, and even its spine became exposed as its skin decayed and fell off, making it vulnerable to attacks from the front and back. Despite the imperfections in its appearance, its physical functions were equal to the completed model. It possessed astounding vitality and aggressiveness which were reminiscent of the completed model's form following removal of its limiter. Despite its combat abilities being inferior to the completed model, it was still a deadly organism. However, its lack of intelligence rendered it uncontrollable. Despite its inferiority in several aspects, it could be said that its high level of ferocity and frank brutality made it somewhat more deserving of the name "Tyrant" than its successor.
