Mega Man is a highly advanced robot with a near-human personality created by Dr. Thomas Light. In the year 20XX, Dr. Light and Dr. Albert Wily worked together to create robots with unprecedented artificial intelligence that could be used to supervise other less advanced robots. However, the two later had a falling out over differences of principals, as Dr. Light considered Dr. Wily's experiments unethical and dangerous. This research eventually resulted in a prototype robot known as Proto Man (called Blues in Japan). While a technical achievement, his free-spirited personality programming became an issue when he needed his unstable core fixed. The fear of being tampered with caused him to run away and go into hiding for years. Dr. Light theorized that Proto Man ran away because he desired a companion, so he next designed two robots: Rock, designed as a lab assistant, and Roll, designed for house work. | Mega Man is a highly advanced robot with a near-human personality created by Dr. Thomas Light.

Based on these successes, Light | Based on these successes, Light then built six Robot Masters: Cut Man, Guts Man, Ice Man, Bomb Man, Fire Man, and [[Elec Man]]. Once he got wind of this news, Dr. Wily grew jealous of the recognition Light received for their work. Wily then began his designs for world conquest, which involved stealing the Robot Masters and reprogramming them to do his bidding. Seeing Rock and Roll as useless, Wily left them behind, inadvertently creating his ultimate undoing, as Rock would volunteer to be converted into a fighting robot. As Mega Man, he would thwart Wily's plans time and time again. | ||
As Mega Man, Rock possesses the Mega Buster, a weapon that converts his hands into a powerful energy cannon. From ''Mega Man 4'' onwards until ''Mega Man 9'', the Mega Buster can be charged to release a Charge Shot. Beginning in ''Mega Man 3'' and again continuing until ''Mega Man 9'', he also possesses the ability to slide along the ground. Both of these abilities return in ''Mega Man 11''. Mega Man's most impressive ability, however, is his Variable Weapons System, which allows him to copy the powers of Robot Masters he defeats. These weapons then prove useful for taking out smaller enemies or another Robot Master weak to that particular weapon in a rock-paper-scissor style system. | As Mega Man, Rock possesses the Mega Buster, a weapon that converts his hands into a powerful energy cannon.
