Bosses are enemies that fight you at the end of a level or at a significant point in the story.
A boss fight is a culminating challenge that pits the player against one or more enemies representing a greater threat and/or difficulty than those previously faced. These scenarios typically feature unique antagonists.
A new type of Virus introduced in Resident Evil 6.
The head of a group of devout people who follow their crazy beliefs. Can often be dangerous.
Cults don't necessarily have to be evil or out to destroy the world, but in video games it's usually safe to assume so.
Diseases are medical conditions that have a negative effect on one's body. Some games revolves around a disease.
The last boss you face in a game, usually representing the final climax of the game.
The villagers infected by Las Plagas in Resident Evil 4. "Ganado" is a Spanish word meaning "cattle".
Parasitic lifeforms, often extraterrestrial, that live on or inside other beings. When the time is ready, they burst or leap out from their hosts. Which is usually not beneficial to the host.

The Las Plagas-infected villagers from Resident Evil 5. "Majini" is a Swahili or Zigula word for "evil spirit". "Majini" comes from the swahili word "Jini" and as such Majini is the plural form of the word Jini.
The ability to influence and control the thoughts of others.
An opponent that typically appears around the halfway point in a level. Mini-Bosses are more formidable than the average opponent, though normally not as tough as the end-level Boss.
Some substance, organic or other wise that alters perfectly normal creatures into something else. Often times the agent in question is some form of virus or parasite.
A small closed community, with people who generally dislike foreigners. Sometimes they're inbred, sometimes they want you dead, sometimes they worship Cthulhu, and sometimes it's "all of the above".
Regeneradores were experimental bioweapons created by Los Iluminados, a Spanish militant organisation. Regeneradores were known for their enhanced regenerative abilities, allowing them to regrow large portions of their body if destroyed.
In Resident Evil 5, Uroboros is an adaptation of the Las Plagas parasite.
This is a place of special vulnerability. Particularly used in boss fights or when simply fighting Giant Enemy Crabs that cannot be defeated by usual means.
