Hmm, it seems there has been quite some discussion around this supposed caped robot and his team. Apparently, various heroes are preparing to go after them. Not many people or robots need a hired gun anymore, but maybe this could be my chance to get a new job!
Everything is a game for jolly Top Man. Life is a bowl of cherries that Top Man is gulping down after being dared by one of his Spin Fiends. He doesn't take his work too seriously, being naive to Wily's heinous intentions. Top Man is just here to dance, spin, and maybe fight a robot, if that is what he has to do. He is put at odds with all work no play robots like Shadow Man or Proto Man, but often goofs around with Gravity Man, seeing who can go through their stages fastest.
Snake Man's job is too use his Search Snakes to map out and scout areas he is sent too, but this feature is often used for espionage when in combat. Due to the constant observation from the outlines, he has become detached from those around him. Snake Man looks upon others cynically, even his own brothers and Dr. Wily. The only hobbies Snake Man has outside of his work is caring for his robo-snakies in his stage and stalking Toad Man, just to elicit a frightened response. Snake Man uses a whistle like sound similar to that of a pungi to give commands to both his Search Snakes and his robo-snakies.
If he has just discharged, Spark Man seems like a relaxed, slow going robot. However, when Dr. Light and Wily were designing Spark Man for high output and input charges, they had to design power sources around the personality chip on his core. This means as Spark Man gathers more and more electricity, he starts to become erratic and anxious due to the electrical interference to his personality chip. Spark Man has been taught how much electricity he can withstand be measuring his electrical interference levels before burning himself out. Spark Man will eventually get to the point where he will be desperate to discharge on anything with his Spiked hands for fear of his own life. In long term situations he can control his current easily. However, in short term high power situations, such as combat, he is a ticking time bomb that only his opponents can delay.
Due to his alien origin, Shadow Man had to have almost six full months of reprogramming done by Dr. Wily all under Dr. Light's nose. Wily has left parts of Shadow Man's original program that seem aid in making strategies for combat, but this sometimes leads to conflicts with his new programming, creating minor glitches. Shadow Man is fully aware of his disconnect to the fellow third generation robots, but Shadow Man does not care. He focuses solely on the mission given by Wily and nothing else. As a matter of fact, Shadow Man only seems to only trust and interact with Wily, as he feels it his responsibly for being reactivated by him.
Needle Man is a perfectionist to the point that people have labeled him OCD. What seems random and overly complicated to others has a completely reasonable algorithm or formula too it, and Needle doesn't understand why other robots can't see them. Needle Man uses these seemingly pointless attack patterns when firing his Needle Cannon, but it is planned for each possible way the opponent could try to counter. He knits as a past time, but not crocheting. Knitting is precise work, unlike crocheting, which seems too unorganized too him.
Magnet Man can be described as incredibly loyal and faithful to those he knows well. The problem is, he is often take advantage of his gullibility, as he can pretty easily be tricked into relationships. He's able to turn his magnets on and off at will, so he is not constantly getting attracted to robots like some assume. Magnet Man is not really a romanticist either, but he plays it up when someone makes an attracting joke. Unlike his brethren, he struggles on whether to serve Light over Wily. It is a very polarizing decision to him.
Someone who has to constantly look at himself has to love his own face, but Gemini Me-err, Man, goes beyond that; he is obsessed with himself. However, only the first Gemini Man truly has personality. The clones are more like echos or reflections of the original. He's not necessary narcissistic, either. He has a good deal of respect for his fellow third generation robots and even some Light bots like Mega Man and Elec Man. The only thing Gemini Man loves almost as much as himself is playing tricks, which tends to come naturally when having clones. Mirror Pranks? Check. Costume Pranks? Check.
Contrary to popular belief, Hard Man is not dumb. He is soft spoken and a gentle giant, not always seeing the need to talk. Any time Hard Man isn't being asked to do manual labor, he enjoys forming ceramics with clay he can find in his canyons. He is closest friends with Heat Man, their more easy going attitudes complementing each other. Hard Man often will transport any ores Heat Man wants to smelt, and Heat Man fires any ceramics Hard Man has formed in return. Although this isn't really incorporated into his battle strategy, he loves fighting films such as the "Rocky"s and the original "Karate Kid".
Well, looks like you got me. It doesn't matter, I had two very good fights. I commend you, Ninja Man.
Ummph... this may be my final attack.
I was (pant)... hoping you'd do (pant)... try that again.
Urgh... this isn't working! Chto bol'.
I need to interrupt the flow of his attacks. Dive Tackle!
You insult me for reusing moves, but then you steal my own! What a hypocrite... whatever.
Ha! I may not be able to pivot my head well, but it's made of Ceramic Chitin! Why else do you think I tackle robots head first! Now, how about something new?
Man, that's going fa-
Oof! I am not appreciating this disadvantage I have. Let's even the odds: Rain Flush!
The only thing I am surprised about is that you thought I would fall for my own strategy. Dive Twister!
Not a wimp? Hmm, who would be better than me!
What good is speed if your attacks can't land?
Alright, you ready to fight... Ninja Man, was it? I warn you know, don't expect all of your hiding tricks to work on me! Salt Water!
Well, that creates quite the draft. Anyway, are there any volunteers on visiting one of these areas?
I'm interested in heading to this "Pipe Scrapheap", but I'd feel better if someone joined me. Any tak-
I would be MORE than happy to assist Dustbuster here if you allow it, doctor.
I will allow this. Go quickly, you two.
