Charge Man

a Robot Master from Mega Man 5 based on an old steam locomotive, which is used as camouflage by him to make shipments to areas occupied by Dr. Wily. Charge Man is unique in that he is powered by coal and water, but as a drawback it increases his operating costs exponentially. Despite his antiquated power source, he is a considerably strong robot, attacking by charging into opponents at full speed. Mega Man uses this attack as the Charge Kick. He's also able to launch flaming pieces of coal from his smokestack.

Charge Man possesses a one-track mind and is quick to quarrel. He likes telling old, boastful stories, and hates railway signs and other things written in Katakana.
