Shade Man (DWN-055) is one of the eight Robot Masters from Mega Man 7. Built to look like a vampire, he was originally nothing more than part of a haunted house attraction at a carnival, but he was stolen and modified for battle by Dr. Wily. Wily equipped Shade Man with ultrasonic emitters in the hopes of granting him the power to control people's minds, but a fault in the wiring led to the emitters releasing destructive sonic waves that could shatter solid matter. While not quite what was intended, this ability still served Dr. Wily's purposes.

Shade Man enjoys hanging around dark places and areas with good acoustics. He wants to be a singer and always carries a microphone around to practise his singing, but in truth he's completely tone-deaf. He also hates spiders and other spooky things, despite the fact that he's based on a vampire.

Abilities[]

  • Flight - Shade Man flies using the large bat-like wings on his back.
  • Vampire Bite - Shade Man will divebomb enemy robots and sink his fangs into them, draining them of their fuel and replenishing his own energy.
  • Noise Crush - Shade Man emits powerful sonic waves to inflict serious damage. The waves will bounce off solid surfaces and Shade Man can absorb them in order to unleash a more powerful sound wave. Mega Man can copy this attack.
  • As a vampire-themed robot, Shade Man can also call on Battons to attack Mega Man.

Weaknesses[]

  • Shade Man is vulnerable to Spring Man's Wild Coil. This is because the Wild Coil can reach high enough to hit Shade Man, and it can also wrap around his wings thus making making him lose flight.
