Scarface

"Are Reploids mere machines? No! We possess will. We have life! We must take our destiny into our hands!"

- Scarface

"Only future generations will have the right to say whether we are truly Maverick or not."

- Scarface

Scarface (スカーフェイス) is the "Plasma Energy Reploid: Knight Type" from Mega Man X: Command Mission. He serves as Epsilon's right-hand man and was the third member of the Rebellion Cadre. A noble knight-type character, he stands by Epsilon to the very end supporting the ideals of the Rebellion. Scarface possesses a deep sense of honor and loyalty, following Epsilon's orders to the letter and fighting with the valor of a true knight.

In Chapter 9, he attacks Central Tower by himself after the Hunters leave the Melda Ore Plant, believing they had taken the Supra-Force Metal from the missile. It is interestingly enough to note that Scarface never killed a single Reploid that attacked him at the Central Tower base - as a matter of fact, only if someone assaulted him would Scarface himself retaliate. Even further, after X and company intercept and fend off his attack, they encounter a damaged Reploid who reveals that despite the fact that he attacked Scarface, the Reploid knight showed him mercy and even healed him. All this shows that he doesn't like to kill unless it is necessary, and demonstrates that he was simply there for the Supra Force Metal. The encounter with Scarface, while confusing X as to why the Rebellion would want to mess around with the Supra Force Metal, also causes X to finally start to wonder how Maverick the Rebellion Army truly was. Upon his defeat, Scarface returns to the Rebellion headquarters at Grave Ruins Base, where he takes a final stand against X with Epsilon watching in the facility's Hall of Glory. However, Scarface's pleas for Epsilon to escape as he holds back the Hunters wind up in vain, as immediately after Scarface painfully exclaims "Glory to the Rebellion!" upon his end, Epsilon then engages the Hunters and loses the ensuing battle.

Rockman Online
He is stated to make an appearance in the upcoming Korean MMORPG Rockman Online, but as of now, what part he plays in the game's storyline is unknown.

When encountering Scarface for the first time
X: Who are you?!

Scarface: I am Scarface, a Rebellion Army Cadre. I have come to avenge my fallen comrades, and to take back the Supra-Force Metal!

(Scarface turns around to face the group.)

Scarface: X! I challenge you to combat!

X: You want the Supra-Force Metal?

Scarface: That's right! We need it to realize our vision! It's essential. Now, return it to us!

After the first battle with Scarface
Scarface: You're a strong one.

X: What is this ideal you're after?! And what does a dangerous weapon like Supra-Force Metal have to do with it?!

Scarface: The Rebellion and its Commander... do not wish to wage war! Why pit Reploid against Reploid?!

Steel Massimo: Yeah! Why stir up trouble?

Scarface: Because you deny us our dream! Commander Epsilon ordered us not to attack unless provoked. I've come here of my own volition.

X: When I fought you, I realized that you're not the kind of Reploid that would use power to achieve crazed aims. So why in the world would you use a deadly weapon like Supra-Force Metal, and risk creating Mavericks?

Scarface: A weapon? Yes, it can be used as a weapon. But Supra-Force Metal was originally created to heighten the capabilities of Reploids. By using it to improve ourselves, we have the potential to evolve by our own will! Are Reploids mere machines? No! We possess will. We have life! We must take our destiny into our hands!

X: But... You're playing with fire. What if you cause a Maverick epidemic?

Scarface: Who are you to judge!? Only future generations will have the right to say whether we are truly Maverick or not. But, enough talk! X, I must admit you possess great strength. A pity we were not fated to join forces. Today I shall retreat. You had best pray we never meet again!

(Scarface leaves.)
