Your average run of the mill Reploid.

Reploids (レプリロイド) are androids from the XXII-XXIII-X??? century from the science fiction videogame saga Megaman X, Megaman Zero and Megaman ZX. Unsurprisingly deriving from the word Replica and Android.

Reploids are robots capable of rational thought, feeling emotions, learn and grow exactly like humans do. The Reploid's Artificial Intelligence and mechanics are meant to make them have a human behavior but this a really is complicated concept never elaborated on any of the sources reaching contradictory terms on Reploids unifying features as evolving parallel living entities


According to the distinct sagas (Megaman X, Megaman Zero and Megaman ZX), Reploids have the appearance of androids, either male or female wearing differently layers of armor, spandex looking body suit and randomly embedded glowing crystals according to the Reploid design; as well as wings, helmets and body incrusted weaponry among others. As a rule, the more advanced the Reploid is the more spandex it will possess. Reploids anthropomorphic in nature are considered Mutos Reploid (ミュートス・レプリロイド) tending to be designed for a specific task of risk and environment.


In game lore Reploids are considered to be the evolution of robots, in the same manner than life; to a point that they are a classification of their own, separating somehow from proper cybernetics. they are insistently considered capable of mutate and evolving during the saga, but the means for this has never been stablished properly. Yet cellular nanomachiery has been featured multiple times in the games as props; also constituting means of remodeling and regeneration to damaged Reploids to certain extent. Furthermore, Reploids have been revealed, rather inconsistently, to possess a form of DNA that is also supposed to share traits with human soul and as a mean of mutate appearance. If this DNA constitutes a system of information control and heredity as real DNA it would either mean Reploids are capable of means of reproduction allowing evolutive adaptation or at least certain recombination traits.
