- "Haha. And you think you can beat me?"
- ―StarMan.EXE, Mega Man Network Transmission
StarMan.EXE (スターマン.ＥＸＥ[4] Sutāman Eguze) is a solo[1] NetNavi and member of the WWW. StarMan always has a very calm personality, as he always seems on top of the situation despite being caught by MegaMan twice in Mega Man Network Transmission.
Appearance[]
StarMan's appearance appears to be based on the Grey alien. His face and the lower half of his body is light gray, while the upper part of his body is dark gray. He has opaque black eyes. His feet resembles golden boots, and his head has six long golden points that resemble a star. His neck is yellow and has an orange line protuding from the back that has a star shape on the end, resembling a scarf. His Navi mark is on his forehead. When he moves, he releases little particles of light.
History[]
Mega Man Network Transmission[]
StarMan using Star Arrow.
StarMan is seen very early on in the Global Net distributing the false Zero Virus vaccine which is actually the virus itself. He is confronted by MegaMan, but promptly retreats, leaving MegaMan to face a Spikey2 virus.
He is seen again later in the No Grav Area, where he is confronted by MegaMan once again in a boss battle. Although confident in his abilities, StarMan is deleted by MegaMan.
MegaMan retrieves LnkCodeZ upon deleting StarMan.
StarMan often disappears and reappears in different parts of the stage, and he may attack without provocation. The player can take advantage of the lesser gravity and jump over some of StarMan's attacks. When StarMan gets low on HP, he will summon many more meteors for his Meteor Shower ability, and this may cover the entire screen. Although this may seem impossible to avoid, if StarMan is in the middle of the screen when he starts using this, the player can slide and get behind StarMan sufficient enough to evade the entire attack. When StarMan is defeated, the player will receive either a Star Arrow or a StarMan Battle Chip.

StarMan appears, executing his Meteor Shower attack on the area directly in front of him. - Star Arrow (StrArrow) (スターアロー Sutā Arō):
MegaMan can fire a single star arrow forward. It starts slowly and gains speed quickly.
