Layer

Layer (レイヤー) is one of three navigators in the game Mega Man X8.

Profile
A new member of the Maverick Hunters, Layer is trained as a Navigator specializing in Reploid and Mechaniloid development. Her high processing power allows her to quickly analyze scan data sent back by Hunters in the field and determine a target's strengths and weaknesses.

As a playable character, she takes after Zero unsurprisingly. Though her Layer Rapier looks thinner, it has the same reach and power as the Z-Saber. Layer can also use all of the same extra weapons and techniques Zero can. Of the three female Navigators, Layer is the most like her male counterpart.

Personality
Layer is cool and collected...most of the time. She seems to get a little flustered when working with Zero, though. Around him, she shows more concern, even turning red-faced when talking with him after the second boss is beaten. Palette's comment on how she waited "the whole time for [Zero]" heavily suggests Layer has a crush on Zero.
