Spider

Spider was introduced as an ally in RockMan X: Command Mission. He uses playing cards as weapons and has a high rate of evasion.

Spider first appears in Chapter Two, when he is hired by Wild Jango to seek out and assassinate X. When he finds X, he engages him in combat but is defeated. Not to be deterred, he returns not long after for a second strike, this time easily getting the upper hand. However, upon seeing the crest of his former comrade Aile in X's possession, he decides to join X and fight against his employer instead of for him. He stays with the party until X and the others are trapped by Incentes, when Spider "sacrifices himself" to allow the others escape.

However, unbeknownst to X and his allies, the Maverick Hunter Colonel, Redips, who was placed in charge of the Gigantis Islands unit, is actally Spider.

Spider, like Axl, has a Chameleon Chip, and can assume multiple forms. This is how he carries on the masqurade of the Maverick Hunter Colonel Redips, who was placed in charge of the Gigantis Island unit.

In the final chapter, he reveals himself as being both Spider and Redips. By then, he has obtained the Supra-Force Metal from X, and uses it to take on an entirely new form.

Megs-Atlas's Notes: >It seems as if the two forms have separate personalities, as although both are evil, Spider is clever and suave while Redips is insane and power-obsessed. Of course, this is mere speculation and cannot be confirmed.

>Whether or not Spider really knew Aile, or he simply fabricated the story to justify his joining X is unknown, as later, Spider would betray his comrades to fulfill his own goals.

>Here's an interesting fact that it seems everyone misses until after they've already finished the game:

You see? Redips is but Spider spelled backwards.
