Robot Master

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

In the original Mega Man series, the term "Robot Master" refers to a special kind of robot or android that possesses a very advanced level of artificial intelligence.[citation needed] There are roughly one hundred thirty six Robot Masters. According to series canon,[citation needed] the Robot Master AI system is jointly credited to Dr. Thomas Light and Dr. Albert Wily. 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" (except for the Genesis Unit, which uses two digits).

Robot Masters have AIs vastly superior to the smaller, minor robots within the Mega Man universe.[citation needed] This, even more than their generally humanoid appearance (Sniper Joes are also humanoid in appearance, yet obviously inferior to Robot Masters) is what separates Robot Masters from other advanced robots. They often are designed with a particular strength or element in mind, thus allowing them to thrive in specific environments. Robot Masters tend to be programmed with human-like personalities and quirks, advanced enough to fool most people into believing them to think and act of their own accord. However, this is not true, as the Mega Man X series states X as the first robot to truly be able to think for himself. Robot Masters have a certain capability of thought and will—this allows them to be decisive on the battlefield, yet cannot generally operate beyond certain guidelines. There have been some exceptions, but every one of these occurrences has been explained in some way—such as the robot being faulty to begin with or could have malfunctioned due to damage incurred.

Another telling feature of a Robot Master is their special "weapons", which are generally specialized for that robot and his environment.

NOTE: Some of these Robot Masters have NetNavi counterparts in the Mega Man Battle Network series. The ones that have them will be noted.

It must also be noted that the term "Robot Master" is not used in Japan.

[edit] List of Robot Masters

DRN is the series code for Light Labs, literally standing for "Dr. Right Number". The code has remained the same despite the fact that "Dr. Light" is the official English spelling of his name (in the first game, he is referred to in the U.S. manual as "Dr. Wright").

[edit] DRN series

[edit] 000-008 (Mega Man)

DRN-000 Proto Man Blues (ブルース) Proto/Blues Buster, Proto/Blues Shield Yes
DRN-001 Mega Man Rockman (ロックマン) Mega/Rock Kick (as Mega/Rock), Mega/Rock Buster (as Mega Man/Rockman) Yes
DRN-002 Roll Roll (ロール) Roll Swing Yes
DRN-003 Cut Man[1] Cut Man (カットマン) Cut Man was originally designed for land reclamation work; particularly deforestation.[2] His battle abilities center around his advanced jumping abilities and the pair of boomerang-like shears on his head.[3] As revealed in Mega Man: Powered Up, he is easily fooled, and can turn his scissors into a more shuriken-like weapon. Cut Man also made a prominent cameo in the Captain N: The Game Master episode "Mega Trouble for Megaland", albeit with a completely different design and misnamed Cuts Man, and was one of the only two Robot Masters to appear in every episode of the Ruby-Spears Mega Man cartoon. Cut Man is shown as a red-pink and white robot master with white shears on his head. He also has a cameo appearance in the Sega Saturn version of Mega Man 8 where he can be fought for a Bolt. Rolling Cutter[4] (ローリングカッター) Yes
DRN-004 Guts Man[1] Guts Man (ガッツマン) Guts Man was also designed for land reclamation work, but was created specifically for construction of public works. By far the strongest of any robot, Gutsman is able to lift objects of up to 80 tons over his head and hurl them at his foe with startling accuracy. In Mega Man: Powered Up, he's a little dim-witted, but always well-meaning robot. He is also the only other Robot Master to appear in every episode of the Ruby-Spears Mega Man cartoon. Guts Man is a giant robot with yellow and red armor and a large square jaw mouth. Super Arm [4] (スーパーアーム) Yes
DRN-005 Ice Man[1] Ice Man (アイスマン) Originally designed for the exploration and mapping of regions far below the temperature that humans can withstand, Ice Man also supervises transportation of supplies to various research teams on the continent. Afterwards, he got the job of transporting materials in frozen food warehouses. He has the ability to shoot waves of super-chilled air from his mouth which is laced with liquid nitrogen, that then crystallizes into a projectile. Mega Man: Powered Up reveals Ice Man to possibly have a bipolar disorder. Ice Man resembles a hooded Inuit. Ice Slasher [4] (アイススラッシャー) Yes
DRN-006 Bomb Man[1] Bomb Man (ボンバーマン Bomber Man) Bomb Man was also designed for land reclamation work. He and Guts Man were originally intended to work as a pair, with Guts Man functioning as a foreman. He can make various forms of explosives, most of which are deadly. Bomb Man is an orange robot with a black spherical body and red mohawk head. Hyper Bomb [4] (ハイパーボム) Yes (renamed BlasterMan.exe in the English dub of the anime)
DRN-007 Fire Man[1] Fire Man (ファイアーマン) Fire Man was designed for waste management work; in particular, incineration. He can withstand temperatures in excess of 8000 °C. Fire Man attacks by surrounding himself in a circle of flame and shooting balls of fire with impressive destructive properties. Fire Man is a red and grey robot with a torch-like head. Fire Storm [4] (ファイヤーストーム) Yes (known as TorchMan.exe in the English dub of the anime)
DRN-008 Elec Man[1] Elec Man (エレキマン) Elec Man was designed to oversee and control atomic energy power plants. At the time of his creation, Elec Man was often hailed as Dr. Light's greatest creation and boasts superhuman calculation speed and razor-sharp judgement, as well as a physical agility that would not be matched for some time. He is very conceited and egotistical, but is otherwise very responsible and competent. His mode of attack centers around him throwing electrically charged wires and later, compressed balls of electric energy. Elec Man is a black and yellow robot with a yellow mask around his eyes. Thunder Beam [4] (サンダービーム) Yes

The following Robot Masters are from Mega Man Powered Up. Their actual numbers are not known, but their presence at the time of the first game would logically make them part of the DRN series.

[edit] DWN series

DWN is the series code for Robot Masters that have been built or modified by Dr. Wily.

For each game from Mega Man 2 through Mega Man 8, Capcom ran a Robot Master design contest. Nintendo Power magazine ran a similar contest, but only for Mega Man 6. The DWN series is the result of these contests. The original designer's name is listed in parentheses at the end of each entry.

[edit] 009-016 (Mega Man 2)

Name Short Description Weapon NetNavi Counterpart
DWN-009 Metal Man (メタルマン) Metal Man was designed by Wily as a modification of Cut Man's design. Unfortunately, due to an error in design, Metal Man developed a strong weakness to Mega Man's Mega Buster. His weapon, the Metal Blade, is a buzzsaw-type projectile that easily slices through most materials, including his own body. Metal Man is red and gold, with a white sawblade on his head and gold antenna, giving him some resemblance to Optimus Prime in Transformers. (Masanori Satou) Metal Blade (メタルブレード) Yes (known as HeavyMetalMan.exe in the English dub of the anime)
DWN-010 Air Man (エアーマン) Air Man resulted from Wily's experiments in creating Robot Masters that did not use the same internal architecture as the general humanoid model. He can create a wall of small tornadoes that fly forward and block projectiles. Air Man is essentially a giant fan connected with two arms and two legs. His eyes are above the fan, since his head is fused with his body. (Yuji Kanazawa) Air Shooter (エアーシューター) Yes
DWN-011 Bubble Man (バブルマン) Wily designed Bubble Man for underwater combat, but due to an error in design, Bubble Man's internal buoyancy system made it impossible for him to swim or walk properly, hampering his underwater mobility. This mistake has apparently been fixed in Mega Man: The Power Fighters. Bubble Man's weapon is Bubble Lead, bubbles that roll forward along the ground. Bubble Man is a green diver with a bubble shooter arm. (Takashi Tanaka) Bubble Lead (バブルリード) Yes
DWN-012 Quick Man (クイックマン) Quick Man was designed by Wily as a modification of Elec Man's design.

Flash Man is a blue and yellow robot master with a translucent dome on his head and a white dial on his right arm. (Tomoo Yamaguchi) Time Stopper (タイムストッパー) Yes
DWN-015 Heat Man (ヒートマン) Wily, utilizing the schematics of Fire Man, created Heat Man as a high-temperature combat robot. Heat Man's armored container is impervious to temperatures in excess of 12000 °C, but to be fully effective, he must remain sealed. This gives his body a rather amusing Zippo lighter shape: he looks like a cigarette lighter with two arms and two legs sticking out of it. Heat Man's weapon, Atomic Fire, creates a slowly-growing flame that surrounds Heat Man's armored container. He may also ignite his body and hurl himself at opponents with startlingly destructive results. (Toshiyuki Kataoka) Atomic Fire (アトミックファイヤー) Yes
DWN-016 Wood Man (ウッドマン) Wily made Wood Man entirely of Hinoki Cypress. Wood Man also has a thin protective coating, but cannot withstand high temperatures. He has the ability to call together a razor-sharp Leaf Shield that can also be used as a projectile. He uses this shield in unison with a series of four more leaves that drift from the ceiling. Wood Man has a tree trunk body and trunk-like head. He beats his chest when summoning Leaf Shield. He, along with Cut Man, also has a special cameo appearance in the Sega Saturn version of Mega Man 8 where he can be fought, to a remixed tune of his stage music, for a Bolt. (Masakatsu Ichikawa) Leaf Shield (リーフシールド) Yes

[edit] 057-064 (Mega Man 8)

Mega Man 8 was the last game to hold a Robot Master design contest. The only Robot Masters from this game designed by the staff were Tengu Man and Astro Man.

Name Short Description Weapon NetNavi Counterpart
DWN-057 Tengu Man (テングマン) Tengu Man is an experimental weather-control robot modeled after the tengu. His attacks are Tornado Hold, which causes a small tornado and sometimes encases enemies in the vortex, and Tengu Blade, a blade that throws a whirlwind after being swung. He is extremely boastful and cocky. He reappears in Mega Man & Bass. His head resembles a hummingbird's to some extent. Tornado Hold (トルネードホールド), Tengu Blade (テングブレード) Yes
DWN-058 Astro Man (アストロマン) Built from abandoned planetarium parts, Wily intended Astro Man to hypnotize observers in the planetarium. By manipulating the dimensional space around him, Astro Man can create a virtual-reality subspace, an ability which makes him incredibly talented at hide-and-seek. Astro Man was not built for battle, resulting in the indirect nature of his attacks and his often cowardly persona. He reappears in Mega Man & Bass. Astro Crush (アストロクラッシュ), Copy Vision (コピービジョン) No
DWN-059 Sword Man (ソードマン) Wily once stole an ancient sword from a museum. The sword was so large, however, that he could find no use for it, so he made Sword Man to use it as a weapon. However, the sword was still too heavy for Sword Man to lift. For this reason, Sword Man's upper body and lower body were split, allowing them to move independently, and a gyroscopic stabilizer was installed in the upper half. His attack channels energy through the sword to cause a burst of flame. (Keigo Matsuo) Flame Sword (フレイムソード) Yes
DWN-060 Clown Man (クラウンマン) Wily stole Clown Man from the set of a cancelled science fiction show and remodeled him using props. His arms are able to extend several times longer than his own body. His attacks are electricity-based. His personality is fitting for his jester-like appearance. (Hiroshige Sakai) Thunder Claw (サンダークロー) No
DWN-061 Search Man (サーチマン) Using parts from a decommissioned security robot, Wily added an extra head to Search Man, intended to give him two brains. However, instead of adding to the abilities of this surveillance robot, the heads tend to watch (and squabble with) each other rather than look for intruders. Using guerrilla tactics, they try to ambush opponents with a barrage of missiles. (Yuuta Hata) Homing Sniper (ホーミングスナイパー) Yes
DWN-062 Frost Man (フロストマン) During Clown Man's remodeling, Wily went a little overboard ordering parts. Frost Man was built to use the extras. Wily had enough spare parts so that he could install an ice machine inside Frost Man, allowing him to produce icicle spikes on the ground in an attack called the Ice Wave. Although he shows limited intelligence, he seems to make ice sculptures as a hobby. Frost Man's body is based on an igloo. (Akifumi Nomura) Ice Wave (アイスウェーブ) No
DWN-063 Grenade Man (グレネードマン) Due to Grenade Man's faulty programming, he cannot discriminate between targets and allies, and tends to attack anyone and anything, including himself. His personality is that of a masochistic drill seargant. His attack, Flash Bomb, is a stunning concussion grenade. Like his name suggests, he is modeled after the grenade. (Kenichirou Komaki) Flash Bomb (フラッシュボム) No
DWN-064 Aqua Man (アクアマン) Aqua Man is the result of Wily's first attempt to build Frost Man's ice machine. Instead of scrapping him, Wily gave him a water tank and sent him to a water treatment facility to train. His personality is that of a showboating trickster. His attacks involve manipulating water. (Morito Kuriki) Water Balloon (ウォーターバルーン) Yes (known as SpoutMan.exe in the English anime dub and in the English version of Mega Man Battle Network 6)
