[edit] Introduction
Direct from the instructional booklet
In 20xx the rapid advance of Internet technology has created the "network age." Everyone now carries a portable exploration device called "PET". This personal terminal is an advanced personal digital assistant. Using it, you can make phone calls, send and receive emails, keep a calendar, store data, shop online and check news from around the world. PET is so convenient and helpful that it has become essential for everyday life!
Every PET uses a personality simulation program called Net Navi(gator). By customizing your PET's Navi program, you can give your Net Navi a unique personality - and even talk to it.
But as the network world exands, network crime is raging. Hacking and computer virus epidemics have become major issues. At the top of the criminal list is a mysterious organization called "WWW" (World Three), a group of incorrigible computer hooligans.
To protect their PETs, people have begun installing Battle Chips - special chips encoded with battle programs. When you insert a Battle Chip, you can arm your PET to fight off viruses and hackers. This is called "virus busting" and has become so important that is now taught in schools.
In the world of virus busting. Lan and MegaMan.EXE are about to meet their match...
[edit] Character Bios
- Lan Hikari is the 11 year old, somewhat headstrong operator of MegaMan and the hero of the series. Lan lives in DenTech city along with his group of friends, Dex, Mayl and Yai. He is a 5th grader at DenTech Academy. He is a somewhat bright and popular kid but does not enjoy studying or placing much effort into any class other than Virus Busting. He is rather scatterbrained and has quite a temper. Lan, along with Megaman, is challenged to save the world from the net mafia WWW.
- MegaMan.EXE is the main character of the MegaMan Battle Network series, MegaMan is Lan's NetNavi. He is a non-elemental net navi with keen intellect and strong process abilities. He and Lan have a strong bond and make a powerful net battling team.
- Dex is described as a bully in the opening of the story but quickly becomes friends with Lan. He isn't very intelligent but has a great heart, refusing to stay in someone's debt. His net navi is Gutsman.
- Gutsman is Dex's strong net navi. His large size, strength, and lack of intelligence is a great reflecting of his operators personality. Gutsman favors brawns over brain and can be quick to attack. He and Megaman become friendly rivals during the game.
- Mayl is Lan's neighbor and childhood friend. She is very neat and organized and is always looking after Lan, especially for his school work. Her crush on Lan is apparent but Lan is too "dense" to see. Mayl's net navi is Roll.
- Roll is Mayl's navi and is one of the few female navis in the game. She isn't the fighting type but is still a great fighter. The romantic relationship between her and Megaman is much more apparent between them than it is between their operators.
- Yai is a new student during the beginning of the game and is top of the class. She is so smart that she is in the same grade as Lan and his friends but is about 2 years younger. She is the daughter of a very rich family and can act snobbish at times. Her Navi, Glyde, has a butler based personality.
- Glyde is Yai's navi and is her loyal subject. His role in the game isn't very prominent in the game but is non the less a friend of Megaman.
