Fire Man

Fire Man (ファイアーマン) is a Robot Master from the Mega Man classic series. He was built by Dr. Light and Dr. Wily to work in an incinerator.

In the new game Mega Man: Powered Up, Fire Man is a playable character. He can use his Fire Storm whenever he wants, but if he runs into water or ice, he will lose the ability until he comes back into contact with lava or fire. Also in that game, he is revealed to talk with a southern accent and is obsessed with justice and fire.

Trivia

 * Fire Man's weakness is unique (he is a fire-type robot weak against an ice weapon); only two other Bosses, a fellow Robot Master and a Maverick share this type of weakness.


 * Fire Man (along with Bomb Man) is one of the only Robot Masters from the first Mega Man game, who did not appear in any of the arcade titles.


 * In Mega Man: Powered Up, he speaks with a stereotypical country/Southern/redneck accent.


 * On the site called IRAGINATION (a Mega Man fansite), there are games and a featured comic that has Fire Man as the main character. The story of the comic takes place 10 years after the current Mega Man games in the classic series where Fire Man wanders the land not too aware of his existence. Answered questions like "how he got the mask" and "was he reprogramed?" are explained in issue #2 as Dr. Light explains that Fire Man got his mask in a burn inccident and did not have time to repair him and was taken away by Dr. Wily but said that he was never reprogramed because he had a deep hatered for everyone, epecially Dr. Light for his accident. Fire Man is refered to as "The warrior with the Hair of Fire"
 * Originally, Fire can melt ice, making players argue that Ice man is supposed to be weak against Fire Man, but after the ice melts, it turns to water, rendering Fire Man vulnerable, and hopeless. This might be why Ice Slasher is Fire man's weakness.
