MegaMan Revalations

Best way to describe this by what we may know, it is a mixture of BattleNetwork and ZX. A Matrix idea if you will.

Concept I

MegaMan is a program created, DNA based computer program whom exists as a net guardian; a program charged with protecting a specific net function (or individual interaction). Created by a program reminiscent of one names Light, whom uploaded his mind to a computer before his death.

Living on, he created a few programs to protect him from the net as well as from hackers/crackers whom plague the net with their worms, viruses, programs, etc. MegaMan is a byproduct of this.

One such cracker simply enjoys breaking into places to look around, just to see if he can. Not meant to cause harm, more leaning towards exposing weaknesses to allow whomever to fix such. He locates MegaMan and is intrigued by him. Testing him with a few modified viruses to see what he can do and watches him destroy the viruses.

He attempts to communicate with MegaMan which at first doesn't work out, but eventually MegaMan listens. They talk for a bit and the cracker decides to assist MegaMan in his charge of protection. MegaMan, hesitant declines at first. After another interaction with other Viruses, he accepts the crackers assistance. They clue Light in on this, whom doesn't like the idea, but accepts MegaMan's choice and begin to hunt down recurring viruses to get rid of what is sending them Light's way.


Concept II

After the Cracker's and MegaMan's union, their encounters lead to other hackers/crackers and other problems within the real world. Knowing this, the Cracker hooks up his body to the net and 'downloads' MegaMan into his body. Effectively temporarily merging with one another. His body changes to portray Megaman's features and abilities and they hunt down those responsible for the Net problems.

Since if MegaMan can venture out of the Network, other code can too and cause robotic malfunctioning/taken over, other people to be 'merged' with, etc.

----

Idea is that MegaMan behaves like a Virus, can move in and out of anything connected to the Network. With not only malicious programs in the Network, there were malicious people interacting with the Network, problems from both sides. MegaMan's function is bias, and is seen as an enemy to others and perhaps to others he is supposed to be fighting with. This 'Grey Area' enables many opponents, characterization for MegaMan and events that land true allies and true enemies.
