STORY CHARACTERS

The year is 21XX.

Humans live in peace alongside mass-produced,

highly-intelligent robots called "Reploids."

However, no technology available has been able

to completely eliminate the potential danger

that comes with robots running on artificial
intelligence. As a result, malfunctions have

started occurring, leading Reploids to start

attacking humans.

There have been many such cases...

These Reploids, having exceeded the bounds

of their AI protocols, are called “Mavericks.”

And in order to round them up and protect

humans from the Maverick threat, the Maverick

Hunters team was formed.

Among the Maverick Hunters, one Reploid in

particular stood out from the crowd as the most

advanced Hunter of them all. His name is Sigma.

"Reploids of the world! Take up arms and unite!

Now is the time for revolution!"

Out of the blue, this was Sigma’s call to arms,

igniting a large-scale rebellion across the globe.

Now X, another Maverick Hunter from the same

team as Sigma, along with his best friend Zero,

set out to put down the rebellion and put a stop

to Sigma.

Who knows what fate holds for these two...

P P P P

PROFILE:

A Reploid in Hunter Unit 17 of the
Maverick Hunter forces. Who made him?
What is his purpose? These questions are
shrouded in mystery. Despite going up
against Mavericks, his gentle side tends
to make him hesitate at times while
destroying his opponents. This has held
him back at a “B” Hunter Rank (other
Hunters view his kindness as weakness).
Zero and Sigma are the only ones who
sense X’s true potential.

PROFILE:

ZERO

Reploid in the same Hunter Unit 17
as X. One of the few who senses X's
true potential. Zero completes his
missions with speed and precision,
and is second only to Sigma as a
Special A Rank Hunter. People find it
strange that Zero worries so much
about X, a B Rank Hunter. As for X,
who doesn’t seem to get along with
other Hunters, Zero is the only one
he truly respects and can confide in.

Reploid formerly of Hunter Unit 17. With an
irregularity in his central processing core, he
will stop at nothing to destroy Mavericks, no
matter what the cost. He seems to enjoy his
mission of hunting down Mavericks with a
crazed obsession, and is considered to be
borderline Maverick. Lately his superiors
had incarcerated him on suspicion of
actually being a Maverick, but he managed
to escape under the fog of the rebellion.

6

Created by Dr. Cain, inventor of Reploids,
Sigma is the ultimate Reploid, with higher
intelligence and battle capabilities than
any other Reploid produced. Formerly
headed the Hunter Unit 17 that X, Zero
and Vile belong to. Always calm, cool and
collected, playing the perfect leader off
the battlefield, and the perfect war
machine on the battlefield. However, one
day he suddenly became a Maverick on
his own and started a rebellion against all
humans. Why would he do such a thing?
What truth lies beneath the surface...?
