BonneFamily

The three Bonne siblings

The Bonne family (ボーン一家 Bōn ikka), better known as Bone[1] or Born[2] in some Japanese sources, is a family of air pirates in the Mega Man Legends series. The Bonnes are a refined family who does not like to get their hands dirty by going on a digout on ancient ruins, so they act dirty by stealing from Diggers and others to keep a luxurious life. However, if a treasure is rumored to be very valuable, such as Diana's Tear and the Mother Lode, they will go down in ruins to claim them first. Their commander, Teisel, does not like to skimp on money, believing that the better their machines, the better the treasures they can obtain, using all the money they steal on the development of their machines to improve their performance. They also need a lot of money to feed the Servbots.

Despite being proud air pirates, the Bonnes have principles,[3] disliking the ways of the Loath family, helping Denise keep her job after she failed to stop them, and assisting MegaMan Volnutt in critical moments in the Main Gate and in the Sulphur-Bottom. They also tried more honest methods of obtaining money, but those usually do not work well for them. After getting the giant Refractor in the end of Mega Man Legends, the Bonne family opened a department store, but they got on the red after some time due to Teisel wasting all the money only on things he liked, forcing them to return to piracy in Mega Man Legends 2 and become part of the Air Pirate Alliance to save the department store,[4] but they ended up losing more money after being stopped by MegaMan. In the end of Mega Man Legends 2 they make an alliance with the Caskett family to help build a rocket to rescue MegaMan.

  • Most of the Bonnes' machines would follow a German naming theme.
  • The Bonne's symbol is based on the Jolly Roger, the pirate flag with skull and crossbones.
