Beak is an enemy from Mega Man 1. It is a dome-shaped robot with a cannon inside its "mouth".
Beak was first made available in the devkit for the original Make a Good Mega Man Level contest, where it appeared in the entries Sunset Siege, Sky Ziggurat, Napalm Forest and Caves, Maze of Death, and Citadel Basement.
Beak returned in Make a Good Mega Man Level 2, where it appeared in the entries Colorful Hall, Something Original, MegaLondo, Candy Panic, Orbital Station, Poorly Named Level, A Mega Man for All Seasons, Gunpowder Cellar, and Bond Man. It also appears in the Wily stages Classic Castle and Reality Core, the Tier X stage Null and Void, and the Pit of Pits rooms "Boobeak Trap", "Citadel Basement Shenanigans", "da ba dee da ba di", "Labyrinthe Throwback", and "MEG4KMAN". It also appears in the Make a Good Mega Man Level 3 Judge Application Level Midnight Man.
Behavior
Beaks remain stationary, but will periodically open their "mouths" to shoot 4 projectiles in fixed directions. Most weapons can only damage Beaks when their "mouths" are open.
By default, Beaks are red, but setting "col = #" in a Beak's creation code will change its color (1 makes it orange, 2 makes it blue).
