The first sucessful creation of Dr. Light and Dr. Wily in their researching of robotics. Soon after, Wily stole much of their findings and began a campaign to rule the world. Though Megaman stands mostly in
Wily's way,
Protoman also lends a hand every now and then when his 'brother' is in trouble.
Protoman is known for his dark sunglasses and
yellow scarf. He also announces his presence by whistling his theme song. An imperfection in his neural network was later discovered by Dr. Light that gave Protoman a unique free will, but it would also run down his systems and cause irreparable damage over time. Protoman chose to leave the glitch unperfected, and lives his days how he wishes, and probably solitary.
*NOTE:
Protoman's original name (in Japan) is Blues.
