~ Wind Man

Background

Wind Man is an air-themed Robot Master from Mega Man 6 who was originally created to work in agriculture, helping in the harvest. In the First Annual Robot Tournament, he was stolen and reprogrammed by Mr. X to help him in his plan to conquer the world.

With his Special Weapon, the Wind Storm, Wind Man can generate powerful winds that can reach speeds of about 200 m/s, and can use this to pull enemies, increasing the speed if damaged. Wind Man has jet engines in his feet that allow him to hover and move faster, which him also uses to attack by moving above the opponent to smash them with his weight.

Codex Statistics

Grade: A

Tier: At most High 6-A, Higher with Rage Power

Cardinality: Finite

Dimensionality: 3-D

Power Source: Solar Energy (Robot Masters[1][2][3] are built in with[4] usages of solar energy to charge their bodies and use their weapons essentially limitlessly[5])

Attack Potency: At most Multi-Continent level (Potency) (Fought against and harmed Mega Man, who was able to fight on par with beings such as Duo, whose fight with Evil Robot caused a cloud explosion on Jupiter which was at this level), Higher with Rage Power (When Robot Masters are damaged to about half their health, they become invulnerable for a few seconds and perform more powerful attacks)

Durability: At most Multi-Continent level (Can take hits from Mega Man)

Striking Strength: At most Multi-Continent Class (Potency), Higher with Rage Power

Lifting Strength: Class G (The Robot Masters are normally made to be on par or superior to Mega Man, who was able to hold up Dr. Wily's fortress at end of Mega Man 5, with Robot Masters such as Guts Man being superior in strength and Robot Masters such as Splash Woman having comparable feats such as lifting entire ships from the ocean)

Travel Speed: Massively Hypersonic (Can move this fast compared to Mega Man, who can keep up with Duo, who can travel around the earth destroying evil energy around this timeframe), Faster Than Light with Teleporters (Robot Masters teleporters should scale to Mega Man and Proto Man’s teleportation, where they are able to travel planets and solar systems in a short time frame[6], reaching this levels of speed)

Attack Speed: Massively Hypersonic (Can keep up with Mega Man, who can keep up with Duo in combat who uses attacks that involve his travel speed)

Reaction Speed: Massively Hypersonic Can keep up with Mega Man, who can keep up with Duo in combat who uses attacks that involve his travel speed)

Stamina: Mimics Limitless Stamina (As long as they are powered by solar energy. All Robot Masters bodies are powered by solar energy, effectively giving them limitless stamina and ammo[7][8][9][10])

Range: Standard Melee, Kilometers with Air Manipulation (Was initially built for creating winds to work in areas involving wind energy and generate winds over farmlands), Interplanetary with Teleporters (All robot masters naturally display teleportation through teleporters interplanetary distances[11])

Powers and Techniques




Equipment

Nothing notable


Notable Techniques

  • Wind Storm: Wind Storm is Wind Man's special weapon. It sends out a grey tornado that creeps along the floor. Up to three tornadoes can be used at the same time. The tornadoes disappear when they hit an obstacle. Enemies defeated by it are sent flying up into the air; however they will not drop powerups if defeated in this manner. It also ignores the defenses of Flame Man's Flame Blast.

Other

Standard Tactics: Wind Man attacks by shooting two propellers, one up and one down, each one in a similar wavy fashion. He also tries to suck the opponent towards him and deal contact damage. Wind Man also lifts himself and tries to land over the opponent.

Weaknesses: Has a weakness to Centaur Man's centaur flash. If his data is corrupted, he will be incapable of coming back.

Trivia

  • His real-life designer, Michael Leader, is North American, one of the first two non-Japanese persons to win a Mega Man character contest, the other in Mega Man 6 being Knight Man's designer.
  • Originally, a boss submission for Mega Man 2 retained the same name as the aforementioned Robot Master.
  • Air Man and Wind Man share a large number of traits: combat pattern (both attack with wind - Air Man in the form of the Air Shooter and Wind Man to push/pull opponents from him), stage design (both have creature-inspired enemies), and weapon (both take the form of tornadoes).
  • Air Man's rivalry with Wind Man is likely because Wind Man is technically a successor to Air Man.
  • Wind Man is believed to represent China. Within Taoist philosophy and worldview, it is believed that qi or life force is akin to flowing forms like the wind, and is studied in Chinese arts like its flow in the environment in feng shui (literally "wind water") and the study of breathing in qigong. The queue on his head and the raimen ("thunder pattern") meander on his head and belt could further support this.
  • Wind Man's and Mega Man's versions of Wind Storm don't match in their usage like other Robot Masters' weapons.

  1. Dr. "I’m Always" Right Breaks It Down Q. What kind of foods does Rockman like to eat?
    A. Well… Actually, Rockman’s body is powered by “Solar Energy.” Therefore, he doesn’t really eat, but there are some things that are okay for his consumption… Around the lab, he enjoys drinking “Energy Juice.” As responsibly as he behaves, he’s still a kid after all.
  2. Q. The shots that the Rockbuster fires from the hand, what are those exactly?
    A. The Rockbuster on the arm fires something called a “Solar Bullet”, essentially emitting a compressed form of solar energy that’s very powerful.
  3. Weapon: Transforming Rockbuster, fires a solar bullet

  5. Q. Do robots like those made by Dr. Wily or Dr. Cossack have self-awareness, and can they talk? And do they run on solar energy like Rockman does?
    A. I take it you’d like to know if Wily and Cossack’s robots possess “sentience”? Naturally, they each have a “consciousness”, although the level of every “cognitive circuit” embedded inside each one of them varies, producing as many different “personality” types as found in people… Just like you or I, they can speak, and have emotional responses like shyness, or anger, just as we do.
    Regarding their energy systems, many of them do utilize “solar energy” in some way.
  6. PEACE HAS COME TO THE WORLD.
    Dr. Wily has reformed, and he and Dr. Right have joined forces, working together to develop a giant peace-keeping robot named “GAMMA”.
    “GAMMA”…… It was the life-long dream of Dr. Right, a giant robot to protect and serve world peace.
    Their research almost complete, all that remained was to combine 8 energy elements that were scattered about the uncharted planets, and bestow them to “GAMMA”…
    –However, each planet met with an unexpected incident. The robots who were mining the energy elements suddenly began going berserk!! Upon learning of this from Dr. Right, “ROCKMAN” immediately set out on a path for the uncharted planets–a new battle was about to begin!!

  52. By swapping out the program data of all the robots Dr. Wily has constructed, this robot is able to adapt other robots’ moves as its own. With the powers of all robots combined into one, this is truly one dreadful robot.
  53. This all-purpose robot can take on the same abilities of every other robot merely by switching its program data. Still, if it just copies the powers of robots that Rockman has already been able to defeat, one might expect for Rockman to overcome them again…
