Wood Man (Mega Man: Fully Charged)

Wood Man is a character from the TV show Mega Man: Fully Charged. He first appears in the episode Enter the Wood Man.

Appearance
Wood Man is based on his counterpart from Mega Man 2. This version of Wood Man is slimmer than his bulky video game counterpart. Parts of his limbs are colored green and have glowing lights on them. His mouth is concealed and he has green eyebrows.

Abilities
Wood Man acts similarly to a ninja, similar to Shadow Man from the classic games. He is able to launch leaf-shaped shurikens from his arm cannon and can camouflage himself to become a log. When in log form, he can also attack by rolling at his enemies at high speed.

Personality
During his debut, he was camouflaged as a tree. When he was reactivated, he still thought the wars of the Hard Times were going on, and presumed the army he served in to have lost. He called Mega Man a deserter, due to him not having a rank visible.

Weaknesses
Being made mostly of wood, Wood Man is naturally weak to fire (like how his video game counterpart is weak to Heat Man's Atomic Fire), which makes using fire-based weapons like Fire Man's schematics an ideal strategy against him. Wood Man is also an extreme environmentalist and will have a meltdown whenever he or someone else accidentally damages part of the environment (like when Wood Man accidentally hit a tree with many of his own shurikens), leaving him momentarily distracted.

History
During the wars of the Hard Age, Wood Man and Principal 100100 were close allies and fellow soldiers. Wood Man went MIA during the war, his fate being unknown until Aki Light, Rush, and Suna Light found him in a forest. Not knowing that the war was over, Wood Man tried to attack Suna, but Mega Man protects her and they fight, Wood Man believing that Mega Man is a traitor. The two have a difficult battle, but when they end in Silicon City, Wood Man is confused when he sees humans and robots living together, and Mega Man convinces him to stop attacking. Afterwards Wood Man reforms and becomes a historian for tourists that visit the forest.

Trivia
