Star Carrier

The Star Carrier (スターキャリアー) is a personal mobile terminal device that is used in Mega Man Star Force 2. Unlike its predecessor, the Transer, the Star Carrier bears a closer resemblance to a PET model. In the game, Aaron Boreal mentions that he was part of the team that created the Star Carrier, and considered naming it "Linkster" due to its Link Power feature. In the Mega Man Star Force anime, Star Carriers were invented by Tom Dubius, who at various points commissioned Geo Stelar and his friends to help him test out its potential functions.

The Star Carrier is later succeeded by the Hunter-VG.

General Functions
Star Carriers contain all of the functions of a Transer, such as BrotherBand, send mails, use as a TV phone, and manage Battle Cards (Folder and Library), with some changes or upgrades to its utility, though it is distinct in being able to directly control Electromagnetic Waves. For example, the user can bring up an Air Display screen by inputting the voice command "Browse!". The Air Display will act much in the same way as a window on a computer screen, though with the major difference of actually floating in the air before the user. Once the Air Display screen is up, it acts as a solid object that reacts to physical touch, even being pushed or shaken. Besides the window itself, the objects displayed on screen will respond to further voice commands, presenting various functions such as the user's mail account.

In the game it also has the options to manage Omega-Xis (Mega Weapons, Abilities, boss records, Wave Command Cards), Items (Matter Waves, Sub Cards and Key Items), Network connection to trade and battle with other players, and Save the game progress.

Matter Waves
When the Star Carrier came to the market, one of the most popular and outstanding functions became quickly apparent - its ability to materialize Matter Waves. Commercial Matter Waves, which can be materialized with a voice command, take the form of any number of large and common every day objects, such as automobiles or even a set of skis, though every Matter Wave displays intelligence and can even converse with its user. Commercial Matter Waves also often have names that will often be a pun based on the object they form.

Personal View
Personal View (パーソナルビュー) is a screen that displays personal information of the user. It can also be used to share its info with others, similar to a business card. It contains the user's name, picture, Link Power, Battle Cards, and BrotherBands. The player's Personal View also shows the HP and equipped Abilities. Players can keep their Personal View in the top screen by pressing the Select button outside the Star Carrier menu.

My Page
My Page (マイページ) is another personal page that can be accessed by selection the user's picture in Personal Viewer or in the BrotherBand screen. The user and Brothers can see each other's My Pages. It contains the user's Handle (nickname), Avatar (having 12 standard backgrounds, 13 in the Japanese version), Favorite Battle Cards that can be used by Real Brothers, Best Combos, Link Power, a Message used as introduction or welcome remark, and a Secret remark confided to Brothers.

Profile
After defeating Dark Phantom (Phantom Black), Luna says that she can't see Geo's Profile (プロフィール) due to his Star Carrier being outdated, and orders him to upgrade it. This can done by talking with Aaron Boreal, enabling five options in the Profile. More options can be obtained during the game, and they can be seen and editted by examing Geo's video game in his room. The profile options were removed outside Japan, the scenario being changed to Luna being unable to see Geo's Secret instead. However, the instruction manual left some details about it, and the Personal View of most characters in the game displays one of the Profile options.

Ancient Star Carrier
Ancient Star Carriers are artifacts of the Mu empire which contain UMA EM Beings from the Mu continent. Throughout the second game, Hyde either uses his own ancient Star Carrier containing the UMA Phantom or causes mischief by giving certain people their own under the orders of Dr. Vega.

Solo has his own ancient Star Carrier which he uses to EM Wave Change on his own into Rogue. It is not known to house any EM Being, including his Wizard, Laplace, from the third game.

Toys
Takara Tomy released Star Carrier toys in three standard versions, Rockman (blue), Shinobi (green), and Dinosaur (red), and a special Berserk (gray) version. Similar to the PET toys, it holds the Star Force Mega Man inside, and he can fight against EM viruses.
