Leon S. Kennedy
Also known as: Rookie, Agent Kennedy
Rookie cop whose first day in Raccoon City ended in zombie apocalypse, now a weary government agent who keeps surviving the unsurvivable. Decades of bad luck and worse one-liners make him the franchise's fic magnet.

3k works
A rookie cop fell for a mysterious woman in a red dress during the fall of Raccoon City, and twenty-five years of games have kept them circling — Ada always working an angle, Leon always letting her go. Canon refuses to resolve them, making the spy and the agent one of gaming's longest-running doomed flirtations. Fic finally gives them the conversation Capcom won't.
