009 - Metal Man
"Kuku, Time to cut you into two"
He has the honour
of being the first robot master built by Dr. Wily
himself. Metal Man is just as fast and agile as
his predecessor was, however he does have an advantage
over Cut Man. His skill and precision with the
Metal Blade are also great as he able to cut through
anything faster than Cut Man. This has made Metal
Man overly confident in his abilities to the point
that he allows his enemies one free shot at attacking
him before he destroys them with a shower of Metal
Blades.
He's a particular favourite of
Dr. Wily as Metal Man is always fast at working
which only serves to stoke his ego. So much so
Metal Man boasts about "masterful" skills
making him an annoyance and a burden for any robot
master he's paired up with. During quiet times
in between missions Metal Man sometimes forgoes
the Metal Blade and tosses frisbees around. However
he has grown to dislike dogs as they always fetch
and steal his frisbees.
Weakness:
Oddly enough Metal Man's greatest weakness is
his own weapon. His armour is light and fairly
think thus making him vulnerable to a cutting
weapon; destroying him in little as one hit. Proving
the old saying: "You can dish it out but
you sure can't take it."

010 - Air Man
"Who are you?! I'm gonna blow you awayyy!"
Dr. Wily originally
designed Air Man to blow away garbage from the
street, but since he sought to destroy Mega Man
he redesigned Air Man to use the power of the
winds. Through a large fan on his body to take
in vast amounts of air and several powerful fan
blades in his buster then discharge the air take
in the form of hurricane force winds or even create
power tornadoes with his Air Shooter to sweep
enemies up.
Air Man is quite proud in his
work as a wind bringer and is confident that all
enemies and obstacles in his life can be blown
away. However Air Man is also fiercely competitive
and doesn't take kindly to those who try to usurp
his role. Already he has several rivalries with
such "upstarts" Wind Man and Cloud Man,
despite his being older he always strives to outdo
them both and prove his worth to Dr. Wily.
Weakness:
Protection of the main fan blade was not in Air
Man's design thus he has to be weary of what he
draws in. Should any of his fan blades be damaged
he will become a sitting duck in battle
DWN
011 - Bubble Man
"I'll take you to the ocean floor."
As 75% of the Earth's
surface is covered in water it would seem prudent
that Dr. Wily design an underwater exploration
robot to assert his dominion over the seas. Thus
Bubble Man was born, however a design flaw made
Bubble Man extremely awkward and unusable on land.
Not only that he lacks agility under the waves
he more than match for a land based robot who
challenges him in the water. While light as air,
Bubble Lead can hit an enemy like a lead weight
and just in case he has buster weapon should he
run out of Bubble Lead material.
Despite all his flaws, Bubble
Man is cheery and optimistic and doesn't let the
world get to him. He doesn't even mind that Wave
Man gets all the dangerous assignments. However
the one thing Bubble Man absolutely hates is ocean
pollution and those that commit it (humans) and
their champion (Mega Man). Also of note Bubble
Man has discover many shipwrecks as well as much
treasure however he developed poor spending habits
and runs out of money as soon as he finds it.
Weakness:
Bubble Lead is dependent of an external pack to
feed the bubble maker the material needed. Should
it be cut Bubble Man shoulder be easier to dispose
of
DWN
012 - Quick Man
"You think you can keep up with my speed?"
Impressed
by Elec Man's hyperactive fighting style Dr. Wily
used his design and improved upon it to create
the fastest robot master in his collection. Under
his own power Quick Man can maintain a cruising
speed of 70 km/h run at about 150 km/h for short
bursts and that's with his own two legs. Quick
Man lacks Elec Man's raw power, however he has
a rapid-fire boomerang launcher on his left arm,
and he's well armoured thus he can collide into
other robots his side without damage to himself.
(But damaging the enemy in the process)
Despite having an ego and
not being very quick to listen, Quick Man unlike
many robot masters can be reasoned with as long
as he sees it's in Dr. Wily's best interests.
Weakness:
In a closed space Quick Man's speed could be bane
as he tends to be unable to stop himself from
running into a wall or an enemy because he has
little room to break. Also due to a software conflict,
Quick Man has no defence the Time Stopper
DWN
013 - Crash Man
"Never met a building I couldn't tear down."
Built on the same
premise as Bomb Man, Crash Man was one of Dr.
Wily's alternate designs. Heavily armoured and
with great leaping ability he's an above average
warrior. His Crash Bomb instead of bouncing off
any surface, drills or clings to the surface increasing
Crash Man's efficiency in combat. Unlike the reckless
Bomb Man; demolition is an art form to him and
he spend much time meticulously planning his demolition.
It's not to say Crash Man doesn't
have a wild side though. When assigned to combat-oriented
duties he releases his anger and becomes totally
unglued. Jumping around chaotically and raining
down Crash Bombs on his opponent. His either case
in demolitions or combat Crash Man sees himself
as the harbinger of Wily new order by tearing
down the old order making him one of Dr. Wily's
most dangerous robot masters.
Weakness:
Crash Man at times can be quite awkward since
he has no hands. In combat Crash Man jumps a lot
keeping his opponents off-balance, however he
is extremely vulnerable to wind while in the air
so the Air Shooter is the optimal weapon for dealing
with him
DWN
014 - Flash Man
"Time stands still for no one, except forme!"
Though Flash Man
can't true stop time itself; he it still able
to stop anything in his tracks. Equipped with
a powerful ‘Electromagnetic Flash Generator'
he can literally freeze any object for periods
of around 30 seconds, making it appear time has
stopped. Long term exposure to the ‘flash'
can even be damaging. To attack his opponent Flash
Man is armed with a rapid fire plasma cannon when
in truth he would rather shoot something with
a camera.
Fearing that Mega Man would defeat
Flash Man, Dr. Wily upgraded his robot master's
to be immune to Flash Man's Time Stopper. Giving
the displeased Flash Man much to complain about
how Dr. Wily has no faith in his abilities to
defeat Mega Man. He is still nice to his underlings,
whom are the only creatures that to him give him
the time of day. For some odd reason Flash Man
has an odd dislike for wig commercials.
Weakness:
Even with his Time Stopper, Flash Man is a poor
warrior that depends too much on his primary weapon
to get the job done. Like many of his fellow second-generation
robot masters Flash Man as a weakness to the Metal
Blade.
DWN
015 - Heat Man
"Hold on, I'll put on the fire in a sec."
Like many of the
robots from the second generation Heat Man was
based off a robot master from the first rebellion.
In his case Heat Man was based off Fire Man. Instead
he was equipped with a nuclear fission micro-reactor
to generate temperatures though impossible to
reach by his predecessor. By utilized a super-ceramic
compression blaster Heat Man can fire blasts of
nuclear plasma reaching a temperature around 12,000
degrees centigrade.
Despite all his power, Heat Man
doesn't really seem to care about Wily's goals
or anything else for that matter preferring to
live life at his own pace. So listless he usually
stays in a resting state letting his own underlings
to run the show. However when coerced into fighting
he'll fight fiercely until on of three scenarios:
1) His opponent leaves, 2) His opponent is destroyed,
or 3) He himself is destroyed. It doesn't matter
to him.
Weakness:
Like Fire Man before him his cooling system is
very delicate. Only unlike Fire Man who will burn
out, Heat Man will explode if is cooling system
isn't kept in check.
DWN
016 - Wood Man
"Allow me to show you nature's power!"
A frankenstein combination
of organic and mechanical parts, Wood Man was
an experiment with treeborg technology. Unlike
Plant Man, Wood Man lacks the ability to absorb
sunlight like a true plant his techno-organic
parts (similar to the wood of a tree) are able
to grow razor-sharp, impenetrable leaves on his
back to use as a shield or offensively by throwing
his shield at an enemy.
Wood Man loves nature and is sworn
to protect it as all costs (except if it's against
Dr. Wily's wishes though) and often goes on walks
through forests a rapidly-becoming rare thing.
He has shown kindness to all creatures robotic
and organic and his Plant Man's only friend. Both
share the same burning hatred of the human race
whom they blame for the continuing destruction
of nature. According to Wood Man, mother nature
doesn't need to make room for human progress.
Weakness:
Since Wood Man's internal parts are made from
cellulose (wood) his body burns easily and can
be destroy in as little as one hit from a charged
bolt of Atomic Fire. Wood Man also has a vulnerability
to the Metal Blade, because of those parts.
