Skullman

Personality: Much like Ringman before him, Skullman was made solely for the purpose of fighting. With this in mind, he is a good strategist, and is meticulous in his attention to detail, particularly with planning his combat methods. However, having only been taught to fight, he lacks skills in other areas and tends to be socially awkward, often alienating others by acting in bad taste. Befitting his morbid theme, Skullman is also a huge fan of horror movies.

Appearance: Skullman is a humanoid robot with green eyes. He has a black body, a white helmet based on a skull, skull-shaped pauldron on each of his shoulders, a white armor with a large red gem on the front center, a yellow area on the center of his torso, a white buster on his left arm, black right hand, a bracer on his right arm and white boots with a yellow on each of them.

Abilities: He has one which he uses to fire shots in volleys of six. He uses the Skull Barrier to protect himself. Unlike most shield-using Robot Masters, however, he strictly uses it for defense and doesn't try using it as a weapon. He resists the Pharaoh Shot entirely. The Skull Barrier is made of orbiting energy bits shaped like skulls.

He is a Robot Master created specially for combat with balanced offense and defense by Dr. Cossack while he was working for Dr. Wily. He attacks with shots from his arm cannon, and can generate a skull-shaped energy shield called the Skull Barrier for protection. Skullman only moves or attacks when the player does the same; however, he doesn't move if others only jump, instead firing his buster. His weakness is the Dust Crusher. In the manga, Skullman was created by Dr. Cossack specially to fight against Megaman after Kalinka was kidnapped. His Skull Barrier is a set of six skull-like discs that appear from the mouth of his shoulders and creates an electromagnetic field around himself. With the Skull Barrier active, Skullman can attack foes without worrying about avoiding attacks and taking damage, but a drawback is that his mobility is restricted while the barrier is in effect. In terms of additional weaponry, Skullman also has a Buster in each radius, and sixteen Shotguns hidden in his ribs. Though Skullman represents the culmination of Dr. Cossack's skills, he was purposely created to look like the complete opposite of Cossack's ideals, and thus his existence is more like a nightmare than anything else.
