Description
A Digimon family believed to have originated when Rolemon first absorbed data from video game knights, preferring to wield shields instead of traditional weapons. It is believed that because knights are usually involved in epic battles against dragons, Rolemon also absorbed data from this species, which would explain its general form.

Covermon , being the infant stage member of this family, displays a valiant yet careless personality from an early age, compelling it to step in front of any attack directed at a Digimon in critical condition. This characteristic seems to be shared by all of its recorded possible evolutions.

The Vaccine branch, in particular, appears to enhance this trait to the maximum, growing stronger with each blow they receive, developing abilities that intentionally put their own well-being at risk to defend others. For instance, the adult form "Protectormon " develops a massive pair of shields only to leave them behind to protect the rear line, or the perfect form "Defendermon ," who can only move at a respectable speed when protecting someone, culminating in the ultimate form "Guardiandramon ," who can literally sacrifice its own life to create an invisible barrier to defend its allies as long as it can still breathe.

On the other hand, the Data type branch grew concerned that their defensive abilities might not be sufficient when responding to their instincts, so they began to develop their offensive capabilities as adults. They take the form of "Stancemon ," who can adopt balanced positions wielding both shield and sword, then evolve into "Chargemon ," who has a certain obsession with balance, driving it to seek battles to reinforce its most imbalanced characteristic. Finally, it becomes "Judgemon ," a Digimon so balanced that it acts as a referee during crises, intervening to stop confrontations of the "Unstoppable force vs. immovable object" type.

To conclude, the branch attempting to put an end to this is the virus branch of this family, starting with the adult "Atacantemon ," who, in an attempt to go against its protective nature, decides to tear off its own shield, dying in the process and becoming an undead creature that believes "The best defense is a good offense." This philosophy would foreshadow the family's inability to completely eliminate their protective instincts, as by the time it reaches its perfect form in the shape of "Strikermon ," it has gained a reputation as a brutal protector who destroys the most vicious Digimon roaming the Digital World. It forges a new armor and twin scythes from their corrupted data, evolving into the brutal "Scythe Knightmon ". Despite claiming to only hunt the most evil and bloodthirsty Digimon because they carry the most data and allow it to grow faster, it doesn't change the fact that Covermon seems to have some kind of insurance in its evolutions that force it to follow similar paths, regardless of the personality it develops along the way.

This has led to the theory that there were other external factors that led Rolemon to become the first Covermon. Beyond the data of knights and dragons, it can be theorized that someone programmed the ultimate protective nature that prevents it from not leaping into danger to defend others. Some believe that Atacantemon was the first to notice this "incapacity," which led it to evolve in a "rebellious" manner in an attempt to prove its freedom. Many researchers have noticed that Atacantemon doesn't completely get rid of its shield upon evolving and often carries it hanging from its back, even turning its back on enemies just to defend others without having to touch the shield itself.
