List of Mavericks
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of the fictional boss characters (Mavericks) found in the Mega Man X series. Mavericks are usually based upon animals (although there are a few Mavericks that aren't based off of animals, like Mega Man X4's Split Mushroom and Mega Man X8's Optic Sunflower.)
[edit] Mega Man X
[edit] Armored Armadillo (Armor Armarge)
- History - Armored Armadillo was in the 8th Armored Division of the Maverick Hunters under Sigma. He had always been a model soldier who adhered to the orders of superior officers, so when Sigma revolted, he followed him unconditionally. He was later destroyed as a Maverick. In Maverick Hunter X's Vile mode, he admitted having pity for Vile because of his tendency to break orders.
[edit] Storm Eagle (Storm Eagleed)
- History - The previous leader of the Maverick Hunter's 7th division (Air Force), he was a noble and upstanding Reploid. Prior to Sigma's revolt, he attempted to engage and stop Sigma, but was forced into subordination (likely by infection, though by his own words, it seems to be out of duty. But these words are questionable as they were said with much reluctance.) He could spit out bits of junk that turned into four little birds in Maverick Hunter X.
According to events depicted in the Day of Sigma OVA included with Maverick Hunter X: Storm Eagle was stationed at the Missile Base several days prior to Sigma's revolt. Sigma, for his own reasons, restationed Eagle elsewhere as his grand plans for rebellion went underway. It is most likely that Eagle, unlike Penguin, did not know of Sigma's rebellion beforehand. He is seemingly a good, well respected friend of X and Zero. Vile, however, is far from his friend, as the out-of-control former hunter has admitted always having hated Eagle for some reason. His voice actor is Tommy James.
[edit] Spark Mandrill (Spark Mandriller)
- History - A Maverick placed in charge of an energy factory by Sigma, Spark Mandrill was a lazy, pompous reploid who preferred to allow his subordinates to do the work while he consumed electricity.
Mandrill was originally a member of the 17th Elite Unit of Maverick Hunters, having great strength, but lacking in intelligence. Despite Mandrill's lack of intelligence, he was one of the few Mavericks that seemed to agree with Sigma's way of thinking. He, however, did not know exactly why he agreed with Sigma, hoping that battle would clear his mind. During this battle, he was destroyed by X.
- Special note: Spark Mandrill was featured in the episode "Mega X" of the 1994 Mega Man cartoon by Ruby-Spears alongside X and Vile. He is portrayed as a strong silent type and worked very well with Vile. He only had three lines of dialogue and spoke with a Russian accent. Mandrill's abilities were similar to his game counterpart, being able to charge electricity and send it across the ground by punching the floor, though he never used his dashing punch or acrobatic skills. His colors were also more subdued than in the game, being mainly a dark brown and tan scheme.
[edit] Boomer Kuwanger
- History - Boomer Kuwanger was in the 17th Unit of the Maverick Hunters under Sigma, and the older brother of Gravity Beetle, who also belonged to the 17th Unit. Kuwanger is a nihilistic and cynical robot; it was out of spite for the humans that when Sigma revolted, he went Maverick with him. Kuwanger took over the city's symbolic tower and turned it into a fortress. His voice actor is Ethan Cole.
According to recently released "Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X", Kuwanger is an old friend of X, which friendship was naturally broken when Kuwanger went Maverick. Kuwanger was one of the few Mavericks that saw potential within X, as no ordinary B-class hunter could improve this quickly. As Kuwanger loves a good fight, he persuades X into fighting him by exclaiming that Maverick Hunters are designed solely for combat.
Note: In the English version of "Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X," Boomer Kuwanger was renamed Boomerang Kuwanger. Kuwanger is a portmanteau word between kuwagata (which is Japanese for "stag beetle") and boomerang with an "er" suffix.
[edit] Flame Mammoth (Burnin' Noumander)
- History - An immense, powerful Maverick from the 4th Land Battalion of the Hunters. He was ordered by Sigma to occupy a lava factory, Flame Mammoth was proud of his size and power. His arrogance led to his defeat at X's hands however. He also had a bad relationship with Chill Penguin. His voice actor is Gerald Matthews.
[edit] Sting Chameleon (Sting Chameleao)
- History - Sting Chameleon was in the 9th Special Forces unit of the Maverick Hunters under Sigma. He was always sly and was not trusted by the other Hunters in his unit. When Sigma revolted, Chameleon went Maverick with him, in order to prove his power. However, according to the manual included with Maverick Hunter X, Chameleon had directly prior suffered a crushing loss against Sigma, more than likely influencing his decision to join the Mavericks.
Chameleon by his own accord holds great respect for those he considers stronger than himself, which he admits to Vile right before their encounter in the canonically questionable Vile Mode included with Maverick Hunter X. His voice actor is Roger Rhodes.
[edit] Launch Octopus (Launcher Octopuld)
- History - Launch Octopus was in the Maverick Hunters under Sigma as a member of the 6th Fleet, and was a friend of Squid Adler. When Sigma revolted, he went Maverick with him to prove the beauty and grace of his attack style. Octopus used his powers to attack the marine city.
[edit] Chill Penguin (Icy Penguigo)
- History - Chill Penguin was in the 13th Polar Region unit of the Maverick Hunters under Sigma. He grew bored of being stationed in the South Pole, so he chose to go along with the revolt, finally having something interesting to do. He had a bad relationship with Flame Mammoth, and was destroyed as a Maverick. In battle, he could create penguin statues out of ice.
According to events depicted in the Day of Sigma OVA included with Maverick Hunter X, Chill Penguin kept the news of Sigma's planned rebellion a secret as Sigma worked closer to his desire. At that time, Chill Penguin operated directly under Sigma in the 17th Elite Unit. His voice actor is Dean Galloway.
[edit] Mega Man X2

In the manga, he was reprogrammed and brought back onto the side of the Maverick Hunters.
[edit] Blizzard Buffalo (Frozen Buffalio)
- History- Blizzard Buffalo was an artist and a service Reploid for a ski resort when he was corrupted in DopplerTown. His skills with his hands continued, though, but were put to use as a Maverick.

[edit] Mega Man X4
[edit] Web Spider (Web Spidus)
- History - Web Spider was a Guerrilla warfare expert who worked with Zero in the special #0 Class Unit until he turned to work for Repliforce. When confronted by Zero, the crimson Hunter begged his former friend to stop the violence and help end the coup, but Web Spider refused, forcing the hunters to destroy him..
Attacks
- 50% to 100% Health - Drops down anywhere from above and casts Lightning Web, then climbs back up again. If you get caught in the web, the Spider's next drop would be either touching you or close to you to inflict more damage.
- 0% to 45% Health - Web Spider drops on the centre of the chamber and draws out four mega webs for him to crawl over. He then releases four tiny spiders that can walk left or right and climb walls. He then casts two Lightning Webs after the release. The cycle continues until he reaches 0% Health.
[edit] Cyber Peacock (Cyber Kujacker)
- History - Cyber Peacock was a cruel Maverick hacker who set out to destroy the global information network, and used his hacker abilities to read X's data as he progressed through cyberspace.

[edit] Split Mushroom (Sprit Mushroom)
- History - Split Mushroom was a Maverick who used the Repliforce War as a scapegoat to cause havoc, enjoying every minute. When Split Mushroom was confronted by X and Zero, he refused to reveal who his commanding officer was, but Split Mushroom did say that he was ordered to terminate X. The conflict seems to raise doubt that his ultimate allegiance was really to the Repliforce and was perhaps, instead, directly to Sigma. Split Mushroom failed to defeat X and Zero and was destroyed.
Attacks
- Introduction Attack - Split Mushroom clings to a wall and creates 6 soul bodies, then jumps up to the top of the chamber to create an image of himself while the soul bodies attacks the player. When the image is creates, the two Mushrooms settle in both edges of the chamber.

When the conflict arose between the Repliforce and the Maverick Hunters, he actually seemed happy about it.

In the manga, he murdered Blizzard Buffalo in front of X's eyes, then proceeded to beat X to a bloody pulp.
[edit] Slash Beast (Slash Beastleo)
- History - Slash Beast was a Repliforce warrior who wanted more than anything to be the top fighter in the organization. He was one of the strongest reploids and a very fast one.

Sigma convinced him to go Maverick for the chance to fight against X and Zero. Magma Dragoon suffers and dies at the hands of X and Zero in the end. (He has been known to use Hadoken and Shoyruken attacks, from the Street Fighter game, also by Capcom.)
Dragoon has often been thought to be based of Akuma, as he wears Akuma's monk beads and has Akumas diving kick.
Attacks:
- Hadoken: A fireball attack, has a crouching and kneeling variation
- Shoryuken: A rising uppercut attack, his fist is covered in flames whilst doing so.
- Diving Kick: A diving kick. His foot is covered in flame whilst doing so. Possibly based off Akuma's "Gou Rasen" kick.

- History - Axle the Red was created by a rare and mysterious mutation that spontaneously formed from a nature control unit, a Reploid and the Sigma Virus. His home was a jungle. When Axle the Red was requested by X and Zero for the Orbiter Engine, Axle the Red was stubborn. Axle the Red was labelled as a Maverick, afterwards, and he was destroyed by the duo.
[edit] Dark Dizzy (Dark Necrobat)
- History - Dark Dizzy was created by Sigma three years before the events of Mega Man X5 took place. He escaped from Sigma's control and had been hiding until the Colony started to crash. Sigma forgot about his existence, not giving any credit to his fighting ability. He took control of a planetarium that was actually a space lab. When approached by X and Zero to get the Fuel Tank from him, he refused to take orders from anyone, be it Sigma or the Maverick Hunters. It was this that made him labeled as a Maverick and destroyed.
[edit] Duff McWhalen (Tidal Makkoeen)
- History - Duff McWhalen was the chief of the oceanographic museum and held rank as Captain of the maritime security force. He would always be in arguments with the Repli-Sea Force, but was not a violent Reploid. More stubborn and reckless than downright vicious, Duff challenged X and Zero to a duel when they came seeking use of "his" ocean for hydrogen, and so he was destroyed.
[edit] Grizzly Slash (Crescent Grizzly)
- History - Grizzly Slash loved to fight, and would sell the weapons of his defeated opponents. He was always an illegal arms dealer, but the Hunters never saw that as a threat and didn't hunt him down. When they needed a Crystal Ball that he had, they decided to take action and send X and Zero to get it. He was infected with the virus, but still looked down his nose at the Hunters, thinking of them as oppressive and fascist. Requesting to fight X and Zero while he still had control over his mind, he was defeated. He made a cameo appearance in Mega Man Maverick Hunter X in the OVA, The Day of Sigma.
[edit] Izzy Glow (Shining Hotarunicus)
- History - Izzy Glow was a genius scientist in laser technology. But because of his fear of his experiments being used as weapons, he closed himself off to the world in his lab and never let his laser technology see the light of day. When he was confronted by X and Zero, he was already infected by the virus and requested to be destroyed so that he could rest in peace. He held the Laser Device.
[edit] Mattrex (Burn Dinorex)
- History - Mattrex used to be a part of the disaster countermeasure scene, and used this to his advantage by hiding a secret cache of weapons in the mountain that he was stationed. When confronted by X and Zero to give them the Booster, he showed aggressive paranoia and suggested they fight, and he was defeated and destroyed as a Maverick.
[edit] The Skiver (Spiral Pegacion)
- History - Skiver was a young high-ranking official in the Repli-Air Force who greatly respected Colonel, and later greatly respected his memory.

Still, he battled them and was destroyed before he handed it over.
[edit] Squid Adler (Volt Kraken)
- History- Squid Adler used to be a Maverick Hunter, but retired from his work when he had doubts about his job after a friend of his, Launch Octopus, had been killed. Since then, he had been leading a quiet life in a research facility experimenting with his electrical weapon systems. When confronted by X and Zero about use of the Energy Cart, he said they were free to have something that was so useless to him. Before he could hand it over, though, the virus overtook him, and the hunters were forced to kill him.
[edit] Mega Man X6
[edit] Commander Yammark
- History - Commander Yammark was a Reploid designed to operate the environmental systems for the Jungle area he was assigned to. However, due to his inexperience, he accidentally initiated a program error and burned up a region of the forest. When his superiors heard of this, they seemly forgave him for the accident, but later sabotaged his flying mechanism during maintenance. He crashed and died as a result, only to be later revived by Gate. He became a member of the Nightmare Investigation Police and continued to occupy the jungle area until his destruction by the Maverick Hunters.
[edit] Blizzard Wolfang
- History - Blizzard Wolfang was an investigator in the North Pole area, and his team was one day attacked by Mavericks. He managed to fend them off, but his team members were killed. The Reploid Research Team that was scheming his demise took advantage of the situation and tricked Alia into killing Wolfang by throwing him into the sea. When he was revived by Gate, he insisted on using the second chance to complete his mission, and had to be destroyed by X and Zero.
[edit] Ground Scaravich
- History - Ground Scaravich was a treasure hunter bent on researching ancient data. Gate, interested in the data, took care of Scaravich in exchange for it. Gate then sent Scaravich to a forbidden area, where Alia promptly disposed of him as punishment. Gate didn't seem to care that he was disposed of, but revived him as part of his investigation team. When he was revived, he panicked upon seeing X and Zero, but then decided to challenge them for their DNA data. They destroyed him.
[edit] Shield Sheldon (Shieldner Sheldon)
- History - Shield Sheldon was a rookie bodyguard assigned to protect the famous Dr. Jim. Dr. Jim went Maverick and had to be destroyed, and he blamed himself for not protecting him from coming under the virus' influence. He was then labeled a Maverick by association. Unable to take being labeled as such, he took his own life (noteable for breaking Asimov's Third Law of Robotics). He was then revived by Gate, and swore to protect him no matter what. When X and Zero confronted him, he chose to battle them, knowing he would probably lose, to fulfill his role and honor as a bodyguard.
[edit] Rainy Turtloid
- History - Rainy Turtloid was created by Gate to investigate polluted areas. Due to his high protective ability, he could investigate areas not possible by any other Reploid. However, his defensive power frightened other Reploids, especially given that his creator was known to make Reploids that were un-analyzable and sometimes erratic. Requests to weaken him grew progressively, and Gate opposed it. When Gate was punished for this, Turtloid sacrificed himself to protect him, and he was revived by Gate as one of his Investigators before being destroyed by X and Zero.
[edit] Metal Shark Player (Metal Shark Prayer)
- History - A reploid-researcher, Metal Shark Player was extremely interested in the concept of Reploid DNA data and souls. However, because of this, the research team silently killed him. He was revived shortly after by Gate and resumed his work however, until approached by the Hunters regarding the investigation. Intrigued by their data, he inquired to study it, which led to his destruction.
[edit] Infinity Mijinion
- History - Infinity Mijinion was a feisty weapon tester. Though he always produced excellent results, he was brash in his decision making and didn't get along with his co-workers. Even Gate could not keep him under control. The Reploid Research team destroyed him and made it look like an accident. When he was revived by Gate, he took hold of the Weapon Center and constructed a giant war machine known as Illumina. When X and Zero arrived, Illumina was active, but still in its testing phases. They destroyed the robot, and then met with Mijinion. He seemed arrogant at first, but later turned to rage when he realized that his creation had been destroyed. X and Zero disposed of him when he challenged them.
[edit] Blaze Heatnix
- History - Blaze Heatnix was part of an investigation team and was constructed specifically to handle hot areas. All those who fell behind in his party, though, were murdered by him, and he was therefore disposed of by the Reploid research team due to his hot temper and inherent danger. When Gate revived him, he occupied the Magma Area and was destroyed once again by X and Zero.
[edit] Mega Man X7
[edit] Flame Hyenard
- History - Flame Hyenard was in charge of the Red Alert Syndicate's energy refinery and lava distribution factory. When he was infected by the virus, he went mad and remained in the core of the factory where he was subsequently destroyed by the Maverick Hunters. Possibly the most annoying Maverick in Mega Man X history, as during the entire battle he (and two clones of himself) scream "Burn! Burn! Burn to the ground!" repeatedly and randomly.
[edit] Ride Boarski (Hellride Inobusky)
- History- Ride Boarski is a reploid that incorporated vehicle enhancements in his body, and as such, led the ride chaser division of the Red Alert Syndicate. His gang occupied the Central Circuit before being defeated by the Maverick Hunters.
[edit] Wind Crowrang (Wind Karasting)
- History - Wind Crowrang was commander of Red Alert's Air Forces. When infected with the virus, he led an immense battle fleet against the Hunters who traveled it to eventually destroy him.
[edit] Vanishing Gungaroo (Vanishing Galgaroon)
- History - Vanishing Gungaroo is the youngest member of the Red Alert syndicate, and (presumably) because of his diminutive size, received the less pressing orders from other members of Syndicate despite his fighting ability. He also came in possession of a Ride Armor to increase his fighting efficiency. After fighting through the underground base which he occupied, however, the Hunters destroyed him.
[edit] Snipe Anteator (Snipe Ariquick)
- History - Snipe Anteator specialized in long-range weaponry and his construction allowed him to operate perfectly in Cyberspace. Snipe Anteator is the oldest member of Red Alert and was stated, in the story (Ougon no Hibi "The Golden Days") included with the X7 OST, to specialise in cyberspace affairs. He also seemingly knew of Axl's complete viral immunity as he mentions that the Maverick Aluce's plan to protect himself using the virus program "Sigma-02" is worthless. However, he might have also been referring to Axl's ability to mimic anyone he kills, as Axl used the form of Aluce's comrade Cedar to approach Aluce and assassinate him.
When Anteator encountered the Hunters, he made use of the Sigma Virus himself, transmitting it through Cyberspace across the world. Anteator was destroyed by the hunters and the transmission stopped. It was during this battle that Anteator showed a bit of his abilities, clearly noticing hidden data within Zero, questioning what it could be.
[edit] Splash Warfly (Splash Wafly)
- History - Splash Warfly was a reploid that had the curious ability to operate in water and air at above-average efficiency, as well as having noteworthy skill in the Martial arts. Commander of the naval Forces, he employed many attack Mechaniloids and assault forces before being finally defeated by the hunters.
[edit] Soldier Stonekong (Soldier Stonekong)
- History - Soldier Stonekong was the most noble of the Syndicate, and led guerilla forces in the jungle, as well as being quite efficient in close-range combat. When infected with the Maverick Virus, he became violent and looked forward to fights. After destroying his Mechaniloid army, the Maverick Hunters encountered and destroyed him.
[edit] Tornado Tonion (Tornado Debonion)
- History - Tonion was in control of the Radio Tower due to his mediocre fighting abilities and clownish behavior. Infected by the virus, he used the tower to broadcast irritating signals. After infiltrating the tower, he goads the Hunters into destroying him. Despite his wackiness, Tonion seemed to realize that Red Alert went wrong, and asked X to save them from "The Professor" who taught them about using DNA data.
[edit] Mega Man X8
[edit] Avalanche Yeti (Ice-Snow Yetinger)
- History - Known as the "Guardian of the Eternally Frozen Fields", Avalanche Yeti was placed in charge of managing the South Pole Environment Center (Central White) despite his inexperience. Settling into the position, he became troubled by the ever-worsening environment. Eventually, Avalanche Yeti went Maverick due to his copy chip embedded with Sigma's data. He was defeated by the Hunters.
[edit] Bamboo Pandamonium (Bamboo Pandemonium)
- History - Known as the "Fallen Giant of the Forest", Bamboo was once in charge of handling materials for outer-space development for the Jakob project. After its completion, he spent his time brooding in the forest of an abandoned Missile Base. When the virus in his chip data took hold, however, he resumed building weaponry to eliminate humanity, making him a target of the Hunters.
[edit] Burn Rooster (Burn Kokekokker)
- History - Known as the "White-Hot Fowl", Burn Rooster was a reploid that thrived in hot conditions, being extremely resistant to heat. Working in the Industrial Waste Facility in a volcano, he utilized the natural heat to burn waste. However, he soon became sick of it, and his anger allowed the Sigma Virus in his new-generation chip to take hold. He was subsequently engaged and destroyed by the Maverick Hunters.
[edit] Dark Mantis (Darkneid Kamakeel)
- History - Known as the "Deadly Blade Lurking in Darkness", Dark Mantis was a new-generation Reploid in charge of security at an underground army logistics base (known as Pitch Black). His abilities allowed him to function in complete darkness. After turning Maverick, he seized control of the defense mechanisms in the base, making travel in the area for Maverick Hunters very difficult.
[edit] Earthrock Trilobyte (Earthrock Torirovich)
- History - Carrying the title of "Insect Inhabiting Rich Mineral Deposits", Earthrock was a technological worker in charge of overseeing the crucial duty of mining Rare Metals needed for outer-space development. When his data turned Maverick, he took control of the area until he was stopped by the Maverick Hunters.
[edit] Optic Sunflower (Optic Sunfloward)
- History - Nicknamed the "Assassin from the Depths of Outer Space", Optic Sunflower's abilities allowed him to morph and control energy, making him an excellent choice for overseeing the Cyber Training Terminals (the Troia Base) that train the new generation Reploids. When he went maverick, he used the base's systems in an attempt to destroy the hunters.
It seems that of all the X8 Mavericks, Optic Sunflower had the most unstable mind after going Maverick. His spoke as if delusional, and seemed to enjoy playing with the minds of others.
[edit] Gravity Antonion (Gravitate Ant-Onion)
- History - Known as the "Twister of Space and Time", Gravity Antonion's AI intelligence systems were given an immense boost at the time of his creation. This enabled him to be the head researcher at the anti-gravity lab (Primrose). When he went Maverick, he presumably masterminded the death of his colleagues and attempted to use the research equipment to destroy the hunters.
Gravity Antonion states that he was doing for the good of the new world, although he was killed because of that.
[edit] Gigavolt Man-O-War (Gigavolt Dokragen)
- History - Known as the "High-Voltage Drifter", Gigavolt Man-O-War worked the menial task of supplying energy to the above-water city (Dynasty), moving from area to area. When his new generation chip went Maverick, he went on a rampage, stealing energy for himself and causing destruction until the Hunters defeated him.
Gigavolt Man-O-War was very childish and believed he never did anything wrong, although since his actions almost destroyed Megapolis he was killed by the hunters.
[edit] Mega Man X: Command Mission
[edit] Wild Jango
- History - A fast agile bobcat-model Reploid, Wild Jango captured the Central Tower and abducted the Resistance's leader, Chief R, in order to halt opposition to the Rebellion. He seemed to have enough clout to be able to promise Rebellion funds to the bounty-hunter Spider. As with many of X's foes, he underestimates the power of the Hunter, though he was sensible enough to try to demolish Central Tower and escape before X came after him. His element is Thunder.
[edit] Silver Horn
- History - A large powerful Reploid modeled after a Triceratops, Silver Horn was in charge of controlling the converted mine where the Rebellion stored its prisoners. Sadistic and thoroughly depraved, he enjoyed torturing and murdering his prisoners. He was also responsible for the mutilation and later death of the original Steel Massimo and nearly killed Nana until X and company stopped him. His element is Water.
[edit] Dr. Psyche / Mad Nautilus
- History - A humanoid-model scientist Reploid, Dr. Psyche was in charge of convincing Dr. Gaudille to join the Rebellion or, failing that, obtaining the Force Metal Generator that Gaudille had developed. He was originally a respected scientist that had apparently been convinced to join the Rebellion by the experiments that they allowed him to conduct. Psyche is a stereotypical snobby scientist personality. After his humanoid body was destroyed, he was able to join up with a nautilus-model battle-body he had hidden in case of such an event, which despite its high defense was also defeated.
[edit] Mach Jentra
- History - A swallow-model aerial superiority Reploid, Mach Jentra was in charge of the volcanic factory where the Rebellion produced its Preon-class troops, using the Mechaniloid Duboar. Very haughty and snobbish, he always held an emerald-tipped cane and stood and spoke like a high-class British gentleman. He had installed within Duboar a protocol that caused the Mechaniloid to go berserk and begin pumping out Preon units at an accelerated rate should he be destroyed. Jentra's element is Fire.
[edit] Incentas
- History - Incentas was in charge of the lab where the Rebellion conducted experiments with Supra-Force Metals. He was a master of the elements, shifting between them every round of battle to confound his foes as well as launch powerful elemental attacks. He was able to trap the Hunters within his lair, but was destroyed by Spider, destroying the barrier and granting the Hunters escape.
[edit] Duckbill Mole
- History - Duckbill Mole resides within one of the top floors of the Melda Ore Plant, where the Rebellion has charged him with the guard of the "Absolute Zero" armor. They have also granted him the Nagiru D robot that seems to be able to replicate Duckbill Mole's form and abilities. He looks and talks weird, but his abilities and Fire-based attacks are powerful. Besides this small duty, he has little role in the game.
[edit] Ninetails
- History - Ninetails is either the leader of the Tails clan, or it's single member; the game is not clear on whether the other members are merely shadow clones of him, as some of them apparently possess the ability to limitlessly clone themselves, as well as not being truly confined as the guards had claimed. In either case, he is a majorly powerful reploid imprisoned by the Resistance, which indicates allegiance to the Rebellion. However, he seems to have no grudge with the Hunters, and wishes only to fight them for the challenge of it. Instead of normal armaments, the Tails clan utilizes a form of robotic chi manipulation similar to that of human martial arts that allows them (or him, if Ninetails is indeed the sole member of his clan) the ability to utilize powerful energy attacks and techniques without the need of an outside power source. At the beginning of every single fight against a Tail they will say "I challenge you to a fight." however at the start of the fight with Ninetails he says "My strength is unparalleled."
[edit] Botos
- History - Botos was the first member of the Rebellion Cadre. A rotund Reploid that uses jets to hover and move effectively, he is a failed entertainer that joined the Rebellion in pursuit of power. He speaks with a Texan accent and drawl and enjoys taunting foes, but he's also a coward. The Hunters first faced him in the Gimialla Desert where he supervised the communication-jamming equipment. After losing to the Hunters he fled to the Melda Ore Plant to obtain the Supra-Force Metal being used in the warhead of a missile, but X and the others chased him through the plant until he ditched them. Botos held the first key to the Supra-Force Metal within the Missile. He turned on the Rebellion when he became addicted to the power they had provided. After Ferham lost to the Hunters, Botos attacked Ferham and mutilated her body in order to obtain her key. He was later killed by Redips/Spider, who stole his Supra-Force Metal. His element is Fire.
[edit] Ferham
- History - Ferham was the second member of the Rebellion Cadre. A beautiful shapely female aerial-superiority Reploid, she was chief of security for Giga City before joining Epsilon. Ferham is a seductive sadomasochist, enjoying inflicting pain on others and receiving pain in turn up to a point (she says "That felt good" during her Bloody Snake attack). She held the second key to the Supra-Force Metal missile, but it was torn from her body by Botos after her fight with the Hunters. She later saved the Hunters from Redips by removing one of his two Supra-Force Metals, being shot in the process. She self-destructed in space with the metal, happy that she would be joining Epsilon and Scarface. Ferham's design is similar to Harpuia in the Mega Man Zero games. Her element is Water.
[edit] Scarface
- History - Scarface was the third member of the Rebellion Cadre. A noble knight-type character, he stood by Epsilon to the end supporting the ideals of the Rebellion. Scarface possessed a deep sense of honor and loyalty, followed Epsilon's orders to the letter and fought with valor. He attacked Central Tower by himself after the Hunters left the Melda Ore Plant, believing they had taken the Supra-Force Metal from the missile. Defeated, he returned to the Rebellion headquarters, where he took a final stand against X as Epsilon watched. However, Scarface's pleas for Epsilon to escape as he held back the Hunters were in vain, as Epsilon engaged the Hunters and lost. His element is Thunder.
[edit] Depth Dragoon
- History - Depth Dragoon was the final guard for Colonel Redips in the Far East HQ. Very confident of his abilities, he demanded a duel with X and his friends to see if the stories of the Class-S Hunters were true. Dragoon's appearance was of a seahorse-like humanoid attached at the waist to a serpentine oarfish Reploid. He also seemed to see himself as a dispenser of justice (one of his attacks includes him stating "The guilty shall be punished!"). His element is Thunder.
[edit] Redips
- History - Colonel Redips was originally the commander of the Maverick Hunters, but apparently went Maverick sometime before the events of Command Mission. He doubles as the rogue bounty hunter Spider and helps X and the other Maverick Hunters for a time. Later on, though, he fakes Spider's death since he saw that they no longer needed his help. As Redips, he acts as an ally to the Hunters until they destroy Epsilon, whereafter he attacks them and publicly labels them as traitors to the government. The Hunters track him to the HQ, where he fuses with the Supra-Force Metal fragments to become the gigantic monstrosity Great Redips, and is finally destroyed by the Hunters.
