Marguerite Baker (Resident Evil 7)

Of all the Baker family members, she is the most visibly inhuman, having received Eveline's "gift," sporting demonic eyes and gaining the ability to control mutant insects. Despite her frail appearance, Marguerite possesses superhuman strength and speed. Her speed is demonstrated by her chasing down an escaping Mia Winters: upon spotting Mia, she is able to outrun her, and also proceeds to lift her by the neck, and later dragging Mia by the legs with minimal effort in the tracking space at the end of the video. She also demonstrated a similar burst of speed when, after discovering Clancy was missing from bed, she rushed to the next room and began lifting him, though Clancy temporarily stunned her by stabbing her in the neck.

Like the rest of the Baker family, she possesses the ability to regenerate from damage, though she is far from invincible. When stabbed by Clancy, she only reacts with irritation, though she struggles to try and pull the knife out of herself. When severely wounded by Ethan, she is covered in a strange liquid that damages Ethan's health and later appears in a greenhouse with massively enlarged limbs. In this state, she gained the ability to crawl along walls like an insect and would use this ability to ambush Ethan. More disturbingly, her lower abdomen becomes a swollen hive of insects that she could use to unleash swarms towards Ethan, but it would cause her considerable pain if Ethan successfully damaged her. Even before her transformation, however, she can emit a centipede-like creature from her mouth. She first demonstrated this to Zoe in an attempt to show off Eveline's "gift," and later if she catches Clancy out of bed.

In the final stages of her illness, as she began to embrace Eveline's "gift," Marguerite adopted a darkly religious and fanatical outlook on private matters, making a "shrine" out of the D-series skull folder, accepting Eveline's D-series arm as a "fortune gift," and threatening horrific retribution upon anyone who dared touch these gifts, even her own daughter.

She also seems to have a great fondness for insects, at least post-infection, to the extent that she takes offense at anyone using phrases that imply insects get hurt. This is implied in Jack Baker when, upon stating his intentions to "crush [Ethan] like an insect," he then worries whether Marguerite heard him say it.

Marguerite was once a caring, loving, zealous, kind, and traditional housewife who became distorted under Eveline's "gift," turning into a demented, sadistic, insane, and psychopathic shell of her former self. Even when she was initially infected by Eveline's gift, she showed some hints of her former nature, where she gently tells Zoe to come out of hiding to meet Eveline (a noticeable contrast to her treatment of Mia in a similar situation later, where she was very hostile, even when trying to find her), and visibly hesitates to harm Zoe and even fights Eveline's control long enough for Marguerite to give Zoe a key to the family car so the latter can find help.

Marguerite still attempts to treat her "guests" with care, only to serve human organs and Eveline's corrupting gift as meals. When her food is refused or she is challenged, her sweet facade drops, revealing a violent and unbalanced individual who threatens in the most disturbing ways imaginable. In some cases, she even reacts violently towards an individual simply to vent her anger over an unrelated event. This was best demonstrated during the Bedroom DLC, where she marches into Clancy's "room" and proceeds to repeatedly stab him nearly to death due to extreme rage from an argument with Jack Baker, stopping only when he arrives to apologize for his previous behavior.

Marguerite lives in a delusion where she is convinced that she is being the best she can be, and as such cannot understand why her precious guests refuse to eat or constantly try to escape. This only worsens her anger, complete with psychotic episodes as she chases Mia while screaming about her guests' ingratitude.

Ethan didn't get far from the encounter before realizing he needed Marguerite's lantern to progress further on the second floor. Upon returning to the hole, however, he witnessed an elongated arm belonging to the now-mutated Marguerite snatch the lantern through a small underground passage, which led her to take refuge in a greenhouse. After Ethan followed her and confronted her in the greenhouse, he finally delivered the fatal blow to Marguerite, causing her to calcify and leave her lantern behind.

Sequelae Marguerite's death also marked the death of all her insects. Later, Jack learned of Marguerite's death and, while fighting, Ethan in the boathouse began sobbing and calling her name. While Ethan was later encased by Eveline, he had a vision of Jack, who revealed that his family, including Marguerite, were all victims of Eveline's mind control. He then vowed with Ethan to "free" his family from Eveline. After Ethan killed Eveline, he acknowledged that the Baker family were simply victims of Eveline's possession—as much victims as he and Mia.

Ethan Winters, Mia's husband, arrived at the Baker house a month after the Sewer Gators incident in response to an email he had received from Mia while under Eveline's control. Sometime after Ethan and Mia reunited and both were captured by Jack, Mia escaped captivity[[]4 4][[]5] and recorded a message for Ethan while she was trying to evade a pursuer, Marguerite, who was also aware of Zoe's collusion in her escape attempts. The chase led to a tracking space in the old house, where Marguerite would corner Mia and capture her.

Marguerite then prepared a meal of various human flesh for the Baker family, as well as her "guest" Ethan, in an attempt to "welcome" him into her lifestyle. However, after Ethan rejected and spat the food on Jack, trying to force her to feed it, Marguerite was shocked and panicked, causing Jack to lunge at her and force her to leave, which she did, visibly angry and upset, and manically screaming that he wasn't eating her food.[[]6]

When Ethan entered the second house in search of the D-series arm that could create the serum, Marguerite encountered him once more, relentlessly attacking him with her insects as she chased him throughout the old house. Eventually, she halted Ethan's progress to the second floor and trapped him in a deep hole where she sent her insects to attack him, but he was able to fight off the insects and wound her enough to make her fall into the hole. She desperately clung to her lantern, however, as she was enveloped in a puddle of insects.

planning for him to join their "family." While she wasn't present in the room, Clancy discovered several puzzles he would need to solve to escape, but in the process caused loud noises that forced him to return to bed as the Baker matriarch returned. Marguerite would bring more food and become more ant-like, as Clancy refused to eat the food. Eventually, Marguerite returned to the room just as Clancy was about to escape, leading him to attack her and stab her in the throat, which incapacitated her and allowed him to escape capture.

Eveline slowly infected Mia and the Baker family with her mold. Marguerite consulted a doctor, who advised her to return for further tests, as they had found mold on her skull during an X-ray.[[]2 (2)] She planned to return to the doctor, but Eveline's infection would consume her before she could, and the newly possessed Marguerite would now see her infection as a "gift." She hid the D-series Arm in Eveline's room to keep it safe, as it could be manufactured as a serum to eliminate the "gift" in a victim's body.

As a result of the infection, Marguerite gained the ability to produce and control mutant insects that hatched from Eveline's molds.

As the infection's grip on them grew stronger, the family withdrew completely from community life, leading villagers to declare them dead and label sightings of infected family members as supernatural phenomena. In reality, Marguerite and her family were capturing people and turning them into Molded, which would add to the "family" Eveline wanted. They kept a list of the people they killed and turned, as well as newspapers reporting the dramatic increase in disappearances.

The family also turned to cannibalism, with most of the food Marguerite cooked being human body parts harvested from her victims. Zoe fled the house and hid in the family's trailer, where she guided kidnapped victims to escape. Marguerite and the family were aware of her "betrayal," however, and began to harass her.

In June 2017, three years after Eveline's arrival, the American TV paranormal investigation series Sewer Gators investigated the house as a possible location for an episode, resulting in the murders of producer André Stickland and presenter Pedro Walken.[[]3 (s)] The crew's cameraman, Clancy Jarvisele, was handcuffed to the bed in Jack and Marguerite's room, while Marguerite greeted him and forced him to eat her food,

Marguerite was the matriarch of the Baker family, which consisted of her husband, Jack, and children, Lucas and Zoe. They lived on a large plantation in the Louisiana swamps, comprising a mansion and an older house, with mines and a dock nearby. In 2014, the Baker family found Mia Winters and Eveline, who had been washed ashore after a shipwreck, and decided to take them in. Unbeknownst to them, Eveline was a bio-organic weapon possessing telepathic powers and obsessed with having a family of her own.
