Claire has adept skill in hand-to-hand combat and firearms use, most of which were taught to her by her older brother, Chris. Claire also has knowledge in making and customizing motorcycles, two of which she personally owns, and lockpicking.
Weaknesses:
Like many from her world, Claire is effectively human, being able to be killed by diseases and conventional means.
Likewise, she is not enhanced or mutated in anyway, generally relying on the skills and wits she has to survive and handle situations.
Claire also seems to share her brother's penchant for attracting trouble and diving head first into the most dire of situations, even if it means risking her own life.
Though Claire is adept with combat and weaponry, she is not formally trained in either aspect, usually winging it and not nearly as skilled as more seasoned fighters.
Claire's head strong and out-spoken nature also tends to get her into trouble more than she would care to admit.

Personality:
Claire seems to share many traits of her brother, Chris. Like him, Claire grew up quickly after the loss of their parents, some could even say she grew up faster than most. Though still young, Claire is already quite mature, responsible, and level headed despite barely being an adult, but is known to be quite trouble prone as well. She is head-strong and stubborn, sometimes being one that tackles situations head on, without completely thinking things through, and without concern for her own safety. Usually, Claire has good intentions and is actually quite compassionate yet determined, sometimes being a little too brash and fearless.
Overall, Claire has a caring, kind soul, trying to help those who are unable to help themselves and often serves as a sort of sisterly role. Though, Claire is one that can be both calm and level headed to being quick to anger and holding a grudge, sharing Chris' determination and disapproval of those that carry out injustices. If need be, Claire will take matters into her own hands, willing to go outside laws and authority to get what she needs, showing a fierceness and stubborn streak that puts her at odds with authority, friends, and allies alike depending on the situation. That said, Claire is unrelenting in her pursuits, being one to strive to find every answer she can and isn't afraid to speak her mind.
Brave, thoughtful, loyal, and having something of a biting, quippy attitude, Claire is a true friend and looks out for herself and those she is close to. Even with strangers, Claire is one to form strong, lasting bonds and tries to get to know and understand others.
History:
Claire grew up with her older brother Chris after their parents died; with this event, the two developed a very close bond. When Chris joined the U.S. Air Force, she was introduced to his new friend, Barry Burton, and he became a close family friend. After high school, Claire attended university, where she developed her interest in motorcycle customisation, owning two motorcycles herself. Claire also specialized in lockpicking, becoming an expert with skill. After Chris moved to Raccoon City with Burton to serve in Special Tactics and Rescue Service (S.T.A.R.S.), Claire would occasionally visit her brother to learn hand-to-hand combat and firearms training. He also gave Claire a golden lighter and his S.T.A.R.S. knife.
In July 1998, S.T.A.R.S. suffered heavy casualties during an investigation in the Arklay Mountains. Having obtained evidence this was linked to illegal activities by the industrial giant, Umbrella, the unit was disbanded and the survivors kept under close observation by the corporation. Fearing what may happen to his sister, Chris left for Europe to investigate Umbrella on his own, refusing to tell her of his whereabouts. After weeks of not hearing from her brother, Claire left her college in late September for Raccoon City to find out where he was. She stopped at the Mizoil Gas Station in the outskirts on September 29, unaware of the zombie outbreak that engulfed the city for several days. Claire quickly discovered the zombies when investigating the inside of the convenience store to see Daniel Cortini getting his throat ripped out by one of them. Upon leaving she was saved by Leon S. Kennedy, who had also stopped at the station. After driving towards the city, they were separated by a fiery accident, but they both fought their way to the Raccoon Police Station for shelter. Leon and Claire soon discovered the station had collapsed due to the outbreak of the t-Virus, being that the only unzombified police officers were the injured Lt. Marvin Branagh, Elliot Edward, and Police Chief Brian Irons.
While navigating the police station's underground tunnels, Claire found Sherry Birkin, the daughter of William and Annette Birkin. They later crossed paths with a psychopathic Chief Irons, who kidnapped Sherry for her pendant. Irons was later killed by William, who had injected himself with the G-virus and turned into a mutant Annette called "G". Sherry and Claire reunited, but after the elevator drop with G Birkin, Sherry was implanted with the "G" larvae. She was sealed in the waste storage vault for safety by her mother who continued the research on her daughter while trying to find the vaccine. Children of a G-virus carrier are more likely to accept a G-virus embryo, and Sherry would have faced death if she was not cured.
Claire reunited with Sherry and carried her to the underground laboratory for treatment on her mother's insistence. Fighting mutants throughout the lab, Claire obtained a vaccine to stop Sherry from mutating into "G". When the facility's self-destruct system was activated, Claire and Sherry escaped on a train with Leon. "G" survived the final battle with Claire and attacked the train during the ride; Leon and Claire teamed up to defeat "G", and the train car it attacked was disconnected and sent hurtling back into the imploding lab.
Following on from her experiences in Raccoon City, Claire went out in search for her brother. Believing him to be at Umbrella Europe's Paris Laboratory, she infiltrated it in December and was captured by the facility's security forces. Taken to Rockfort Island by Rodrigo Juan Raval, Claire's arrival coincided with a sabotage operation conducted by HCF, a paramilitary group under the command of Albert Wesker. The saboteurs succeeded in releasing the t-Virus and B.O.W.s across the island, and Umbrella's local paramilitary forces were wiped out. Feeling sorry for her, Raval released Claire from her cell, though believed she would eventually die anyway.
On the surface she met Steve Burnside, a seventeen year old who was interned following his father's betrayal of Umbrella for selling company secrets on the black market. The two searched for an airport to escape the island, but were repeatedly hampered by Alfred Ashford, 7th Earl Ashford, the island's commander, who believed Redfield to be linked to the saboteurs. Before they found a plane, Claire was able to get in contact with Leon via a computer; Leon, who had gained employment within the U.S. government's covert Anti-Umbrella Pursuit and Investigation Team, got in contact with Chris and sent him her location.
Escaping to the Antarctic, Claire and Steve discovered Umbrella's Antarctic Base had fallen to a t-Virus outbreak brought there by the retreating Rockfort personnel. During their search of the facility, they found it was located several miles from an Australian polar observation base, and made plans to take control of a truck to drive there. The two ran into Alfred, who had followed them, but in their fight with him he was shot and fell off a ledge, where he was able to awaken his sister, Alexia, who had acclimated to mutation from t-Veronica infection through cryogenic stasis. After an encounter with the Nosferatu, Claire and Steve found the truck and drove off. They were soon after set upon by plant-like tentacles, which knocked the truck over, and the two were dragged back to the base as Alexia's prisoners.
But is before Alexia could enact her revenge that Claire was seemingly saved by a mysterious dark entities, dragging her through a portal to Median.
