Resistance Fighters
 |
Zero |
Zero is a legendary Hunter that has fought countless times against the Mavericks in an effort to bring peace between humans and Reploids. Since his last battles against Sigma alongside X, Zero felt that the best way to rid himself of the original Maverick Virus contained in his body was to seal himself away for 100 years.
That time has past, Zero's mind is still in balance but his memories of the past are scratchy, and the new threat of the corrupt Neo Arcadia has Zero fighting for justice more so than ever, as he will continue to believe in fighting for good, despite his creator's original intentions. With the Maverick threat finally gone, Zero's abilities will increase throughout this adventure, but his mind and skill will be put to the ultimate test when he confronts the leader of Neo Arcadia's massive army. |

Ciel |
| Ciel is the brilliant human scientist who discovers Zero and pleads for his help in the war against Neo Arcadia. Her abilities and fighting spirit have made her one of the most vital assets to the Resistance movement, her role in the war will be crucial for the downfall of Neo Arcadia. Throughout Zero's adventure, Ciel will be constantly briefing him on new missions and objectives, she'll also give him hints along the way to further his progress. Without Ciel, the Resistance wouldn't have a chance, so Zero must trust her in every situation, although not all of her secrets will be known to Zero straight away... |
 |
Resistance Reploids |
| These Reploids make up most of the Resistance's fighters, engineers and medics. As they usually don't stand a chance against the titan Neo Arcadia fighter Reploids, they're always grateful for any help Zero can offer, but they'll be willing to back him up in any event. Be sure to talk to all the Reploids in the Resistance base, as they'll all be willing to give Zero hints and tips, as well as new weapons. |
 |
Unknown X |
| This unknown spirit will make more than one appearance in the game. Zero, neither Ciel, have no idea what this spirit is or it's purpose, but Zero will soon quickly realize that it is not something to fear, and could be a possible ally against Neo Arcadia. This being will watch over Zero's progress, but it will only reveal it's true identity once Zero rights the wrongs of Neo Arcadia. |
Neo Arcadia
 |
Master X's Guardians |
| X's four Guardians exist to do his bidding. Harpuia, Fefnir, Phantom and Leviathan go about enforcing X's evil laws and fear, while their followers continue to shut down innocent Reploids they believe to be Maverick. Vastly powerful, the Guardians are always on the lookout for a worthy opponent, but little do they know that their greatest challenge is about to appear in the form of Zero, and in legacy of Sigma and the Mavericks, the Guardians will underestimate Zero powers, not knowing of the unlimited energy contained within Zero's body. |
 |
Master X |
Master X is the leader and dictator of Neo Arcadia. Using his vast army and four Guardians, he has managed to take control of most governments while ruling with an iron fist. Although his core intentions may be noble by attempting to bring peace for humans, his method of ruling by use of fear and destroying innocent Reploids has given his cause and empire an evil nature.
No one knows why he believes Mavericks still exist as the last of the Mavericks were wiped out years ago, and now that Zero's body no longer contains the original virus, the Mavericks are gone forever. Despite this, Master X continues to cause evil without a second thought. Zero believes that Master X was the same Mega Man X that fought alongside him against the Mavericks, but Zero is willing to destroy X to restore peace and bring true happiness between humans and Reploids. |
