Concept and creation

Characters

Mega Man

DLN-001 Mega Man, known in Japan as Rockman(ロックマン, Rokkuman) is the main protagonist of the original Mega Man series. Dr. Light originally created him to be a lab assistant named Rock, but he was modified for combat after Dr. Wily reprogrammed the original Robot Masters to take over the world. His Variable Weapons System allows him to copy the weapons of other Robot Masters and use them as his own.

Dr. Light

Voiced by (English): Antony Holland (Captain N: The Game Master), Jim Byrnes (90s TV series), Randall Wiebe (Mega Man X8, Mega Man Maverick Hunter X and Mega Man Powered Up), Michael Mislove (Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite), Doug Stone (Mega Man 11), Garry Chalk (Mega Man: Fully Charged), Rick Overton (Secret Level).

Voiced by (Japanese): Tomohisa Aso (Mega Man Maverick Hunter X and Mega Man Powered Up), Nobuo Tobita (Mega Man 11)

Doctor Thomas Light, known in Japan as Doctor Thomas Right(トーマス・ライト, Tōmasu Raito), is a scientist and roboticist and the creator of Mega Man and several other robots, such as his Robot Masters, and he considers them his own children; as such, he can be considered the father of Mega Man, Roll, and Proto Man. Dr. Light is an idealist with a big heart, but he's naive and gullible at times, especially when it's about his rival, Dr. Wily. Despite being a pacifist and disliking violence, he reluctantly recognizes that using force can sometimes be necessary. He plays a supporting role throughout the series, often developing new equipment to help Mega Man in his battles. He died prior to the events of the Mega Man X series, which is set 100 years after the original series, but his legacy continues through his last creation, X, and he maintains a supporting role through enhancement capsules that contain upgrades to X's systems along with messages relayed by holographic projections of him. He also appears in the "Navi Mode" of Mega Manand Mega Man 6 in the Mega Man Anniversary Collection to provide gameplay hints to Mega Man.

Dr. Wily

Voiced by (English): Ian James Corlett (Captain N: The Game Master), Scott McNeil (90s TV series), Dean Galloway (Mega Man Powered Up), Keith Silverstein (Mega Man 11)

Doctor Albert W. Wily(Dr.ワイリー, Dokutā Wairī) is a mad scientist and the main antagonist of the series. He was Dr. Light's colleague when they were university students; driven by jealousy towards Light and his achievements overshadowing his own, he reprogrammed Light's robots, except for Rock and Roll, to assist him in taking over the world. However, Rock, who was upgraded and became known as Mega Man, defeated him. Wily returns as antagonist in subsequent titles of the main series, each time with a different scheme, only to ultimately be defeated and surrender to Mega Man.

Wily has also played a major role in the backgrounds of other characters in the series. He repaired the prototype for Mega Man, Proto Man, and in Mega Man 7 used the knowledge he gained from the process to create his answer to Light's work, Bass. After Bass proved to be unreliable, Wily refined his design, creating Zero, who, in the Mega Man X and Mega Man Zero games, is a hero working alongside Light's last creation, X. Though Wily died prior to the events of the Mega Man X series, his legacy continues through a virus which Zero initially carries and is later transferred to Sigma, resulting in the creation of the Sigma Virus and most of the Mavericks.

According to artist and producer Keiji Inafune, Wily's name and design are inspired by Albert Einstein, and he was initially conceived to appear as a tall, thin scientist with a mustache, glasses, balding hair, and lab coat. As development on Mega Man progressed, Inafune redrew Wily to match the in-game sprites, making him shorter and removing the glasses from his design. Inafune has expressed disdain for this design, stating in a 2003 interview that if an artist approached him with similar work, he would reject it and demand better. With the production of Mega Man 2, Inafune decided to redraw Wily's design completely, aiming to tie into the common perception of a mad scientist. After making his design slightly taller and with elongated hair and chin, Inafune was satisfied with the alternations and kept the design consistent for later appearances of the character. Since the beginning of the Mega Man X series, Inafune wanted to add Dr. Wily to the story, leading to Mega Man X4 revealing that he created Zero to set the climax of the series. Wily often is shown moving his eyebrows up and down when he appears in most of the games, usually seen in the prologue cutscenes to the castle levels.

GamesRadar praised that "Dr. Wily brings a certain flair to his evil schemes". IGN praised Dr. Wily as a "hopelessly persistent" video game villain, who returned despite his failure at the ending of each Mega Man game, concluding that "in a realm dominated by forgettable villains, Dr. Wily's staying power is a true testament to both his fictional tenacity and his popularity amongst gamers since the 8-bit days of the 1980s." Destructoid editor Chris Carter attributed the appeal of the character in part to the recurring grovelling of Dr. Wily after each defeat, allowing the player to "revel in your enemy's defeat", and considered this trait "as iconic as it is an in-joke".

Proto Man

DLN-000 Proto Man, known in Japan as Blues(ブルース, Burūsu), was the prototype of the robot master, and Mega Man's ten-eleven year old older brother. He first appeared in Mega Man 3 under the name Break Man working for Wily (albeit disloyally). However, at the end of Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters, Dr. Light reveals that Proto Man's energy system has a fatal defect, causing him great pain and shortening his lifespan. He also appears in the "Navi Mode" of Mega Man 3 in the Mega Man Anniversary Collection to provide gameplay hints to Mega Man.

Character designer Keiji Inafune stated that "We wanted people to be unsure whether Proto Man was a friend or a foe. On one hand, he'd seem like a rival to Mega Man, but at the same time he'd seem like a comrade." Several anime characters Inafune used to watch inspired Proto Man, with the glow from his eyes being inspired by Break Man. The design also involved his shield being a "cool factor" and a sign of his superiority over Mega Man. Higurashi considers Proto Man and Rush to be the main attractions of Mega Man 3, while Hideki considers Mega Man 5 as a "Blue"'s Trap, resulting in major focus when making illustrations focusing on him. For Mega Man 8, Kaji had difficulties in making the illustrations, leading Inafune to revise the ones from Proto Man.

The absence of Proto Man in Mega Man 11 has been criticized. Mega Man 11 producer Kazuhiro Tsuchiya explained his exclusion in the game, stating that "What we struggled with the most was how to develop a clear and engaging story that builds upon the previous installments while appealing to a wide range of players; new players picking up a Mega Man game for the first time, those who may have forgotten the series' backstory, and the hardcore fans who remember the events of 9 and 10 as though they happened yesterday. After the long gap between 10 and 11, we decided to focus on sharing an untold story that touches on the past of Dr. Light and Dr. Wily."

Bass

Voiced by (Japanese): Keiko Nemoto (X DiVE)

SWN-001 Bass, known in Japan as Forte(フォルテ, Forute), is a robot Dr. Wily designed, who was constructed based on research conducted on Mega Man with the intention of matching his power, being a more advanced model of Robot Master compared to Mega Man. He is powered by the energy Bassnium, the most powerful form of energy on Earth, which Wily discovered by mistake. He seeks to defeat Mega Man and be acknowledged as the world's strongest robot, and as such frequently rebels against Wily when he feels he is standing in the way of his goals. Despite this, Bass has worked with Mega Man several times, though usually for his own purposes.

Bass wields the Bass Buster, which originally functioned similarly to the Mega Buster, albeit with slightly different shots. As of Mega Man & Bass, however, it has lost its ability to charge shots in favor of an increased rate of fire and the ability to fire upwards and diagonally. Unlike the Mega Buster, its bullets do not travel through solid surfaces without equpping a specific upgrade. Like Mega Man and Proto Man, Bass can also copy the weapons of Robot Masters, with his body changing colors to reflect the weapon currently equipped. He can also combine with his robotic wolf Treble(ゴスペル, Gosuperu; Gospel) for the Treble Boost, allowing him to fly and shoot more powerful projectiles from the Buster.

He is playable in Mega Man 10, being added through DLC, where he retains his dash and rapid-fire, multi-directional arm cannon. In the game's re-release as part of Mega Man Legacy Collection 2, Bass is instead unlocked by either completing the game or by using a secret code at the title screen.

In Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters, where Zero makes a cameo appearance, Bass seeks to destroy him to prove that he is stronger than all other robots, as Wily says that he is a creation that could surpass him.

Roll

Voiced by (English): Robyn Ross (90s TV series), Angie Beers (Mega Man Powered Up), Erica Lindbeck (Mega Man 11).

DLN-002 Roll(ロール, DRN-002 Rōru) is Mega Man's younger "sister"; a female robot designed for housekeeping instead of fighting. She plays a supporting role in the first game and a more substantive role in subsequent sequels. Her name was never mentioned until Mega Man 3, which marks her return, where her entry in Dr. Light's robot list is shown during the ending. She also appears in the "Navi Mode" of Mega Man 2 in the Mega Man Anniversary Collection to provide gameplay hints to Mega Man.

She is usually depicted with blonde hair worn in a ponytail and wearing a red dress and mary janes. In Mega Man 8, she wears a black and red dress with red boots and a green ribbon in her hair. Despite not being designed for fighting, she appears as a combatant in the fighting games Marvel vs. Capcom and Marvel vs. Capcom 2, as well as in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, and Mega Man Powered Up. Alternate versions of Roll appear in two other Mega Man spinoff series: Roll Caskett in Mega Man Legends, and Roll.EXE in Mega Man Battle Network. Roll also appears in other Mega Man media, including manga and Mega Man.

Roll has proved popular amongst fans, who have created various ROM hacks and fangames to place her in the main role as a female counterpart to Mega Man. Theresa Romano from The Mary Sue said Roll had been the sole female robot in the franchise's universe to have made a lasting impression on the Mega Man fandom. She observed that Roll is notable for her constant character redesigns through the games or the animated series; for Romano, the most memorable iteration was the Ruby-Spears series version, whose arm could transform into different household appliances. Joshua Scullin from University of Washington Tacoma saw Roll as a better female character than the ones featured from Nintendo Entertainment System games as she is not reward for the main character but instead a powerful character on her own. However, her weaponry was still called out for her distinctive weapon. In Gaming Disability: Disability Perspectives on Contemporary Video Games, Roll is seen as a clean up messes in a more common approach to women in the 1980s in contrast to the heroic exploits of her brother, Mega Man.

Rush

Rush(ラッシュ, Rasshu) is Mega Man's robotic dog and sidekick. He was created by Dr. Light to be an all-around support unit and is first introduced in Mega Man 3. He can transform into various forms, including Rush Marine, which transforms him into a one-seated submarine, and Rush Jet, which transforms his legs into jet engines that allow him to fly. He also has the Rush Coil, a spring that pops out of his back and helps Mega Man reach higher platforms that he normally cannot access. Other games have him transform into a motorcycle and a drill car, and in the fourth and fifth Game Boy games as a spaceship. In later games, the Rush Adaptor allows Rush to attach himself to Mega Man and merge with him by using specific adaptors, allowing him to float, shoot more powerful blasts, and launch his arms as projectiles. In some games, such as Mega Man 7 and Mega Man 8, Rush can be used to obtain items, such as health. His name is derived from another Capcom game, The Speed Rumbler, which is known as Rush & Crash in Japan, while the pronunciation of his name is similar to Lassie.

Supporting characters

Auto

Auto, known as Rightot in Japan, is a robot that Dr. Light created to replace Rock's role as lab assistant due to him being unable to fulfill that role after becoming Mega Man. He is introduced in Mega Man 7, where he provides Mega Man with upgrades and parts. In Mega Man 8, Auto assists Mega Man in the Rush Jet scenes, using a rocket launcher and a propeller in his head that allows him to fly. He also appears in Mega Man & Bass, creating upgrades for the player in exchange for 'bolts' dropped by defeated enemies. He returns again in Mega Man 11 as Dr. Light's lab assistant, helping Mega Man by creating new parts for him from bolts collected from enemies. He, or a robot resembling him, makes a cameo appearance in CD versions of Mega Man X3, watching TV in the background of the FMV intro for Volt Catfish's stage, making him the only robot from the classic series to also appear in the X series.

Beat

Beat is a robotic bird that Dr. Cossack created to provide additional support to Mega Man during the events of Mega Man 5 and has since appeared in many Mega Man games. Several of the games require the player to obtain a certain number of Beat Plates in order to use him. Beat homes in on enemies, providing damage by charging them; however, in Mega Man 6, he does not attack bosses. In Mega Man 7, Mega Man 9, Mega Man 10 and Mega Man 11, he rescues Mega Man, as well as Proto Man in Mega Man 10, from pits. In Mega Man 8, he can assist Mega Man during the Rush Jet sections by dealing damage on contact and dashing in a straight line when he fires a charge shot, and also provides him with an energy barrier in Mega Man & Bass that makes him temporarily invincible to damage except from instant-death hazards. He assists Duo and Proto Man as a temporary invincibility power-up in Power Fighters.

Dr. Cossack

Dr. Mikhail Sergeyevich Cossack is a Russian colleague of Dr. Light, who appears in Mega Man 4 as the main antagonist. However, it is later revealed that he was being blackmailed, as Wily kidnapped his daughter Kalinka. After Proto Man rescues Kalinka and the truth is revealed, Dr. Cossack stops working for Wily and becomes an ally to Mega Man. In Mega Man 5, he helps him in his quest to save Dr. Light, powering up his Mega Buster into the Super Mega Buster, improving its charge shot. He's the inventor of several industrial and military robots such as Tundra Man fron Mega Man 11, and he also created Beat, a robotic bird that he gave to Mega Man as a gift to thank him for stopping Dr. Wily when he had kidnapped his daughter. He also appears in the "Navi Mode" of Mega Man 5 in the Mega Man Anniversary Collection to provide gameplay hints to Mega Man.

Duo

Duo is a robot from outer space who was designed to preserve the universe's peace and justice. Duo was formally introduced in Mega Man 8, where he is battling a robot powered by Evil Energy. After crashing to Earth, Dr. Light repairs him and he becomes an ally of Mega Man. After eradicating the Evil Energy on Earth and saving Mega Man's life when he gets infected by leftover Evil Energy, he thanks him and departs Earth to continue his mission in other parts of the universe. He later appears in Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters, which was released before Mega Man 8 but set six months after its events, as well as Mega Man Battle & Chase and Rockman Strategy.

Eddie

Eddie, originally known as Flip Top in early Western manuals, is a robot that Dr. Light created as a "walking suitcase", who first appeared in Mega Man 4. He is usually sent to help Mega Man by providing recovery items, and can also fire bombs from his head while assisting Mega Man in the Rush Jet sections of Mega Man 8. Starting with Mega Man 7, Eddie only appears in the shop and no longer gives items to Mega Man.

Kalinka

Kalinka Cossack is Dr. Cossack's daughter, who Proto Man kidnapped on Dr. Wily's orders to force her father into unwillingly declaring war against Mega Man on Wily's behalf. However, Proto Man later rescues her before Mega Man confronts and defeats Cossack in his citadel. Kalinka also appears in the "Navi Mode" of Mega Man 4 in the Mega Man Anniversary Collection to provide gameplay hints to Mega Man. She is named after the Russian folk song Kalinka.

King

King is a robot who appears in Mega Man and Bass as the apparent main antagonist. Declaring himself the king of all robots, he seeks to eradicate humanity and establish a world populated only by robots. After either Mega Man or Bass defeat him, it is revealed that Dr. Wily had programmed him to form a rebellion. While King seemingly dies after this revelation, during Mega Man's ending it is revealed that he survived and is now a wanderer, like Proto Man. He then apologizes for his actions and wishes to meet up with Mega Man peacefully.

King wields several weapons, including a battle-axe and a shield which can absorb attacks and fire them back as a laser beam. He also has the ability to merge with other vehicles to form King Jet Robo and King Tank Robo, the penultimate bosses of the game.

Tango

Tango(タンゴ) is a green robotic cat and one of Mega Man's allies. Tango can roll himself into a buzzsaw and dive into enemies until all in-area enemies are defeated, he falls into a pit or spikes, or his energy is expended. He appears in Mega Man V, Rockman & Forte Mirai kara no Chōsensha, and as a cameo in Mega Man 10 in the item shop when playing as Proto Man. His name is derived from the music genre tango.

Reggae

Reggae is a robotic bird and Dr. Wily's pet, who appears in a Japan-exclusive drama CD, Wily & Right no RockBoard: That's Paradise, and in Rockman & Forte: Challenger From the Future as a weapon for Bass. His first appearance outside Japan is in Mega Man 7, where he appears if an invalid password is entered. He also appears in Mega Man 10 as shopkeeper when playing as Bass. In Archie Comics' adaptation of Mega Man, he has a more prominent role, usually mocking Dr. Wily's failures in the "Short Circuits" section. His name is derived from the music genre reggae.

Treble

Treble(ゴスペル, Gosuperu; Gospel) is Bass' equivalent to Rush, who, like Rush, can assume a jet-like form and fly in the form of an armored suit called the Treble Boost, which was created after Bass stole designs for the Super Adapter in Mega Man 7 and gives Bass limited flight capability and increased firepower. It also appears in Mega Man & Bass, where it also grants Bass invulnerability while its energy lasts, and in Mega Man 10, where it functions similarly to its previous incarnation, but without invulnerability. Its Japanese name of Gospel is likely derived from the musical genre gospel.

Met

The Met, also known as Hard Hat, is a construction robot wearing a hard hat with a plus sign on it. Mets usually wait below their helmet before attacking, as it is impervious to most of Mega Man's weapons. They appear in the various series with many different variations and forms, such as the Metall, Mettool, and Mettaur variants, but their look has largely remained the same. In the original Mega Man, another common enemy, the Picket Man, has a head similar to the Met, but with a full body, a shield, and a pickaxe. The Mets also appear in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U as a collectable trophy in both versions, as well as enemies in the 3DS-exclusive Smash Run mode.

Sniper Joe

Sniper Joe is a humanoid robot which Dr. Light built and which Dr. Wily later modified for infantry. They were built based on Proto Man and mass-produced for combat. Sniper Joes are a recurring enemy throughout the classic series, and most variants often operate machines such as walkers, gun turrets, jet skis, and helicopters. They wear a black visor and have a single red eye.

Yellow Devil

The Yellow Devil is a powerful combat robot which Dr. Wily created, and appears as the first fortress boss in the first game. Its body is made from a shape-memory alloy, allowing it to split into multiple pieces and reform elsewhere. At the center of its body is a single mechanical eye, which keeps the body together and is its sole weakness. The Yellow Devil is a recurring boss character throughout the series, with several successors and offshoots appearing in other games, such as the Yellow Devil MK-II in Mega Man 3, the Green Devil in Mega Man 8, and the Block Devil in Mega Man 10. Variants also appear in other series, including the Shadow Devil in Mega Man X5 and the Rainbow Devil in Mega Man Zero. The original Yellow Devil appears as a stage hazard on the Wily Castle stage in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It appears periodically through battles on the stage, attacking in the same manner as the original Mega Man. It is able to be defeated, producing a large explosion that harms all players except the one who defeated it.

Early Western media referred to the Yellow Devil as the "Rock Monster", a change made due to Nintendo's policies regarding religious figures and names. However, the "Devil" name has since been used in recent American releases. The Mega Man/Sonic the Hedgehog crossover produced by Archie Comics featured the Chaos Devil, a being combining the Yellow Devil with Chaos.

Mega Man Killers

The Mega Man Killers are a series of robots appearing in the Game Boy series, which Dr. Wily created to destroy Mega Man. They reappear as bosses in the Game Boy version of Mega Man V, as well as bosses in the DLC stages of Mega Man 10. They are named after notable music genres.

Robot Masters

Robot Masters are a special kind of robot mainly under Dr. Wily's control which possess advanced artificial intelligence. The system is jointly credited to Dr. Light and Dr. Wily, and most Robot Masters possess a unique identification code, consisting of a two-letter "series code" followed by one of N, No, or #, then a three-digit "serial number". They are generally humanoid in appearance, and often designed with specific purposes and human-like personalities and quirks. The list below is of the first six Robot Masters that Dr. Light built and Dr. Wily later reprogrammed, as well as two more that were added to Mega Man Powered Up to be consistent with other games.

In the Japanese version of Powered Up, Oil Man has a body the color of oil and large, pink lips. This was changed to a dark blue complexion and yellow lips in the Western release, with the Archie comic giving him a scarf that obscures his mouth, possibly due to association with blackface stereotypes. He is voiced by Atsushi Kisaichi in Japanese and Scott Roberts in English.Oil Slider O. Slider (オイルスライダー, Oiru Suraidā)Fire Storm
