- "MEGA MAN... YOUR SENTENCE... IS DEATH!!!"
- ―Death Man, Make a Good Mega Man Level 3
Death Man is a Robot Master from the fangame Mega Man Rock Force. Considered one of the most powerful robots at the time of his creation, Death Man was created by the government to hunt down and destroy dangerous robots. However, his energy matrix required eight times the power of a normal robot, and this – combined with public backlash and the formation of the Rock Force by Mega Man – led to Death Man's eventual retirement, where he was put to work harvesting crops until his power eventually ran out.
In Make a Good Mega Man Level 3, Death Man appears as a Tier Boss, with a similar moveset to his original boss fight, albeit with drastically reduced damage.

Game Appearances[edit]
Mega Man Rock Force[edit]
Death Man is a Robot Master who, like Break Man in Mega Man 3, appears after the four "fusion" Robot Masters have been defeated, with their energy signatures coalescing into his body. His stage notably features no enemies, and is instead filled with spikes, pits, and all manner of instant-death hazards. Death Man himself attacks Mega Man by throwing his scythe, and he is able to inflict a high amount of damage compared to other bosses. His weakness is Charade Man's Charade Clone, though he is also weak to Cut Man's Rolling Cutter. After Death Man is defeated, Justice Man reveals himself as the main antagonist, and Mega Man moves on to his fortress.
Make a Good Mega Man Level 3[edit]
Death Man appears as the Tier Boss of Tier 13, the Movie Theater. Having been revived at some point, he now works as a janitor for the theater, finding peace with his new station in life. Mega Man confronts him to earn the gauntlet's Tier Rank, despite his apprehensiveness over their last battle. Before the battle starts, Death Man knocks him into the screen, sending him into an arena similar to his original Mega Man Rock Force stage.
Death Man primarily jumps around his room, targeting Mega Man's current location each time. After jumping three times, he throws his scythe in one of three ways before jumping again:
- A diagonal throw, which has it bounce around the room until it flies back to him.
- In Mega Man's direction, where it will rebound off the wall and back into his hands.
- In an arc, where it bounces off the ground until he grabs it again.
At 42 HP, Death Man will gain new attacks:
- Death Man throws his scythe into the bottom center of the room, which will create a vacuum pull that sucks Mega Man towards it. Death Man will attempt to jump on Mega Man while this happens.
- Death Man throws his scythe into the air and disappears. Three scythes will then appear, orbiting around Mega Man, until they stop and fly towards him. This happens a maximum of three times.
- Death Man throws his scythe in the air, where it will appear in the center of the room. After settling in the room's center, it will begin launching five scythes that orbit around it while spreading outwards. The center scythe will launch these scythes three times.
- Death Man throws his scythe downwards, causing a line of scythes to begin rising from below. The scythes have a pattern, with half of them going up, and vice versa.
During the multi-scythe attacks, Zomburgs will begin jumping into the arena, where they can be destroyed for small health and weapon energy.
After his defeat, Death Man appears as an NPC at the Magic Card Casino with most of the other defeated Tier Bosses.
Pre-Battle Dialogue[edit]
Character | Dialogue |
---|---|
Mega Man | (One of the screens? Did I enter the wrong room?) (Oh no, what if I'm caught without a ticket?!) (Maybe that janitor over there can give me directions...) |
Mega Man walks up to the janitor. | |
??? | Your time has come, Mega Man. The show is just about to start. |
The janitor reveals themself to be Death Man, who is wearing a janitor outfit. | |
Death Man | You even managed to avoid the adverts. |
Mega Man | Death Man? No. No, not you of all robots... |
Death Man | Would some food or drink from the concessions stand ease you? |
Mega Man | You say that like I haven't already had a fast food-serving grim reaper try to kill me! |
Death Man | Please, do not compare me to that rage-fuelled skeleton. I never felt any anger towards the robots I had to hunt down and decommission, only remorse. But that was never my true calling. This new, quiet life... brings me peace. |
Mega Man | ...does it? (He's just trying to lower my guard isn't he...) |
Death Man | Yes, it does. Whether it's ushering in the moviegoers, sweeping up the dropped popcorn... ...or SILENCING anyone who dares make noise during the film. So many loud, obnoxious phones have felt the bite of my scythe. |
Death Man's stage starts to fade in on the theater screen. | |
Mega Man | Are you trying to calm me down or are you not!? |
Death Man | I am not here to make you watch your life flash before you on the big screen. All I ask from you is to help me fulfil my duty as Tier Boss... and to accept my compliments. |
Mega Man | Your compliments? |
Death Man | I see a lot of myself in you. We both desire to settle down and live outside the spotlight, but are constantly doomed to hunt dangerous robots. So, I truly mean it when I say... |
Death Man knocks Mega Man into the screen. | |
Death Man | ...you ought to be in the pictures. |
The game transitions to Death Man's arena. | |
Death Man | MEGA MAN... YOUR SENTENCE... |
Death Man appears, now in his usual outfit. | |
Death Man | IS DEATH!!! |
Pre-Battle Dialogue (Proto Man Mode)[edit]
Character | Dialogue |
---|---|
Proto Man | (Hm. A theater isn't the wisest place to have a battle.) (Never mind the space, I can't seem to find the Tier Boss...) (I'll ask that janitor if he knows where to go.) |
Proto Man walks up to the janitor. | |
??? | Your time has come, Proto Man. The show is just about to start. |
The janitor reveals themself to be Death Man, who is wearing a janitor outfit. | |
Death Man | You even managed to avoid the adverts. |
Proto Man | Death Man? I think I've heard of you. I thought you were decommissioned a long time ago. |
Death Man | Indeed, I was... but after an unexpected incident, I found myself with a new lease on life. Rest assured, I intend to make the most of it. |
Proto Man | As a minimum wage movie theater worker? |
Death Man | There was no joy in my past life, of executing robots at the whims of politicians... I remember well the fear in my victims' eyes, but I held no hate for them. Only remorse. Then, when I was deemed a liability, I was left to farm crops until I ran out of power. I was abandoned, but for the first time, I was truly happy. As a humble service worker, now I feel that same sense of peace again. |
Proto Man | I understand. Not many of us are lucky to get second chances. |
Death Man | You seem to speak from experience... no wonder my appearance doesn't scare you. For one who has spent life staring death in the face, what fear can the reaper hope to bring? |
Death Man's stage starts to fade in on the theater screen. | |
Proto Man | But your old spirit still lingers, hence your position here and now. |
Death Man | Indeed, Proto Man! Though I have grown soft, I am far from weak. I know how short life is, so every floor I sweep... every counter I wipe... every phone I SILENCE... ...I do it as if it will be my last! I expect nothing less here and now from you! But this arena won't do for us. No, believe me... our battle deserves to be seen... |
Death Man knocks Proto Man into the screen. | |
Death Man | ...On the big screen. |
The game transitions to Death Man's arena. | |
Death Man | PROTO MAN... YOUR SENTENCE... |
Death Man appears, now in his usual outfit. | |
Death Man | IS DEATH!!! |
Pre-Battle Dialogue (Bass Mode)[edit]
Character | Dialogue |
---|---|
Bass | (Ugh... a tiny screen, probably about to play some schlock.) (Where's that stupid Tier Boss?!) (I don't have time to waste hunting them!) |
Bass walks up to the janitor. | |
Bass | Hey, you! Tell me where the Tier Boss is, or I'm throwing every seat here at the screen! |
??? | Rage not against the light, Bass. The show is just about to start. |
The janitor reveals themself to be Death Man, who is wearing a janitor outfit. | |
Death Man | You even managed to avoid the adverts. |
Bass | Wow, how spooky. I can hear a little baby idiot crying in fear. ...Okay, now tell me where the real Tier Boss is, mop boy. |
Death Man | He'll be with you shortly, that I can promise. In the meantime, would you care for some complementary popcorn? It's truly to die for. |
Bass | It's bland and overpriced, and you know it! And I'm only hungry for that Rank! I've got bigger fish to fry in this dumb tournament than some low rung trash! |
Death Man | Your insults mean nothing to me. Laugh if you wish, but I've found true happiness here. My old days of hunting dangerous robots were hollow and meaningless. But you... ...You obviously don't share the sentiment. |
Bass | ...You? Hunted robots? And you gave it up for this dead-end job? |
Death Man | I never had a choice! Not when I was sent out, nor who I targeted, nor when I was retired. Only when I was left for dead, did I truly feel alive. ...Tell me, Bass: Why do you fight? |
Death Man's stage starts to fade in on the theater screen. | |
Bass | What, are you expecting some deep, heartfelt answer from me? Too bad. I fight to show the world that I'm the strongest, nothing more! |
Death Man | How selfish... little better than the politicians I was built to serve under. |
Bass | You have a problem with that? Or are you gonna shut up and fight?! |
Death Man | I see something of myself in you... or rather, what people wanted me to be. But I have kept you waiting, haven't I? But maybe it's good that I did. After all... |
Death Man knocks Bass into the screen. | |
Death Man | ...The audience loves to see the bad guy. |
The game transitions to Death Man's arena. | |
Death Man | BASS... YOUR SENTENCE... |
Death Man appears, now in his usual outfit. | |
Death Man | IS DEATH!!! |

Trivia[edit]
- Death Man was originally programmed as the endboss for an Arena that was planned, but eventually cut. When plans for the tier bosses were later shuffled around, Death Man was repurposed as Tier 13's boss.
