Description
Let's just pretend that the N64 port of Megaman Legends was called "MEGAMAN LEGENDS".One day I wondered what a Megaman game with all-female bosses would be like. Critics would attack it as "sexist" simply because it's one guy going up against eight women and winning, never mind that said women are evil, and Mega's victories have nothing to do with superiority. >.> (Well, one awesome MM9 player thought Splashwoman having the same weakness to the Mega Buster as Cutman and Metalman was sexist...I just don't think about those things)
Story's still up in the air. I can say that Wily built them all.
Going from left to right and back again:
RAINWOMAN: A playful and energetic robot who looks and acts about five, Rainwoman's powers are a rare combination of water and electricity--she can "rain" on opponents using her cloud platform, then summon forth high-voltage bolts to zap them while they're still wet. However, Wily never meant for her to go into battle--her mentality simply wasn't suited for it.
Rain doesn't seem to notice or care that Megaman intends to defeat her.
HONEYWOMAN: That pot that Honeywoman carries is filled with poison, not her namesake, and she used it to incapacitate all the robots who stood in her way before Megaman challenged her. Honeywoman is a chronic perfectionist, insisting on doing everything the "right" way even if there's no defined right way. This leaves her as the most inflexible RM Wily has ever created. She carries a switchblade in the event that her jar be destroyed.
CHAINWOMAN: She already belongs to another team of four robots (herself, Satellman, Chaosman, and Sporeman), and resents having to fight on this one. Her only weapon is the length of chain she fights with--luckily for her, she is extremely versatile with it. Chainwoman speaks with a Texan accent and hates human men, citing them as one of the main causes of such grievances as censorship (someone had to fetishize boobs before they were declared unfit for the public eye, after all).
IRONWOMAN: Knightman's distaff counterpart, if you will. Ironwoman regards herself as a silent assassin, and hasn't made any efforts to endear herself to her teammates. Her fighting style is similar to Swordman's, keeping her lance and her lack of an element in mind. Ironwoman's "mask" is her real face; any time she has to express something, she relies on her body to get it across. It doesn't always work.
ARACHWOMAN: Her lair is full of webs and robots that she drained (plasma rather than blood). Arachwoman considers herself a hard worker, and for the most part those who know her agree. She's also incredibly arrogant and hard to work with. Her greatest pride is her Web Buster; it allows her to bind enemies and spy on them with some creative use.
GUSTWOMAN: The fans visible through her left arm and torso aren't used to attack, but to power the third fan that replaces her left hand. Gustwoman is a sour individual, critical of everything and demanding a great deal of personal space (her "bubble" has a radius of 15 feet); she clashes with Honeywoman more than she does with Megaman.
MORTARWOMAN: This is what happens when Rambo gets a sex change. Mortarwoman was partially based off Napalmman, but doesn't share his enthusiasm for weapons; she just uses whatever gets the job done. She has a habit of firing indiscriminately on and off the battlefield, and considers Rainwoman a valid "drinking buddy" (you can imagine how well that goes over).
THORNWOMAN: She was built to subvert what most nature-based robots are weak too--should her vines be set on fire, they will rapidly grow back, making them impossible to simply burn away. Thornwoman is rather lethargic, preferring to attack Megaman from a throne made of the same plants that adorn her body. The flower on her chest opens to reveal a sharp thorn tipped with a paralyzing agent that works on both robots and organics.
Yeah.

i think i only like four of them and i also think arachwoman would look better if you thined out the forearms a little and that the legs sould be more spiderlike as well her being more robotic(just saying)...wouldn't Arachni sound better than arach?(i'm just confused on that)btw you need to define the armored parts of a couple of them.
sorry it's just that i needed to say that ^^'

Nice female bosses I am sure they would add a lot of emotion in the game!
I specially appreciated the group (upper and lower rows) at the left ^^

Wow! I really like their designs, XD. I think my fav is either Thornwoman, or Rainwoman. But they all look cool, X3.
I never got this idea of "sexism" people have, O_-". Or "racism". Or any other kind of "-ism" of that family, when it came to stuff like that. I mean, IT'S A GAME!! If they were worried of sexsim, why didn't they critisize the first 8 Megaman games, where there were NO girls, -_-". Yeah...I think those people are just losers who want to show that girls are better, BUT THEY ARE NOT (lol, I'm a girl, btw, XD). We're equals, :].
And...I'm being annoying, aren't I, .///."?

Thanks!
I think America is just excessively anal. Racism and sexism are bad, yes, but seeing it everywhere when it's not intended? Political correctness gone mad.

no prob!
Agreed. I swear! I've seen Europeen movies and stuff, and it's a heck of a lot worse then here. So little censorship compared to here, XD. The politically correct ARE usually anal. In my opinion, anyway.

They're pretty cool. People need to lighten up! Games are meant to be entertaining and fun, not a tool for sexist agendas! Do people REALLY believe that game makers do things like that on purpose? Sigh. And how is Splashwoman having the same weakness as her main counterparts sexist?!
