Character biographies

Rock is a robot created by Dr. Light (Dr. Right in Japan), along with his sister, a robot named Roll.

Dr. Light's Rival, Dr. Wily, sends his own robots out on a path of destruction, so Rock transforms into Mega Man (Rockman in Japan) to defeat the robots.

When he defeats each robot, Mega Man absorbs their powers. He uses all of these powers to defeat Dr. Wily's many robots, and ultimately Dr. Wily himself.
