Personality: Toad Man is usually calm and cheerful. He doesn’t see the need of hurrying something unless it’s really important, and even then he’ll try not to get too stressed since it causes him to do stupid mistakes. He’s straightforward to the point of being blunt. If he thinks you’re doing a good job he’ll be happy to tell you so, but at the same time he won’t hesitate to tell you if you’re being an idiot. Since this has gotten him into trouble in the past he tries not to let this happen too often, but sometimes he can’t help himself – especially if he gets really annoyed and for some reason is unable to just leave. At the same time, you can trust any compliment he gives to be honest.
He’s about the farthest you can get from being a fighter without being a pacifist. Before Wily he never saw a reason to fight, and even now he’ll rather run than fight. It has nothing to do with being a coward and everything with knowing he’s pretty bad at fighting. As a result he doesn’t care that he was so quickly defeated, and if someone tries to use it to get a rise out of him he’ll just raise an eyebrow and ask what their point is. (He’ll react the same if someone calls him fat.)
Dr. Cossack, Kalinka and the rest of the Cossack line are considered by him to be family. As with any family there’s a lot of teasing, at times he considers one or several of his brothers to be an idiot and wishes they wouldn’t be so annoying… but at the same time he has a lot of fun with them and will look out for them if needed. Toad Man treats Dr. Cossack with a lot of respect but thinks he should relax more often, and he’s very protective of Kalinka, especially after her kidnapping.
He doesn’t hold any grudge against Mega Man for defeating him or his brothers. They had no way of telling him what was really going on without endangering Kalinka, and considering Mega Man had defeated twenty-something Robot Masters before him, the only real surprise to Toad Man was how fast their battle was over. He considers Mega Man to be brave and likeable, and is thankful for him stopping Dr. Wily. The one he’s most thankful to though is Proto Man for saving Kalinka and, by proxy, Dr. Cossack. He just wishes the guy wouldn’t act so mysterious all the time.
He really, really dislikes snakes. Some people think this is because since snakes eats toads, he thinks they’ll eat him. This is only partly true – he’s well aware most snakes are too small to do anything to him, even if they were somehow able to get hold of him, and he can handle one fine as long as he doesn’t have to touch it. If there’s a lot of them however he’ll get creeped out since he can’t stand their slithering. Bigger ones creeps him out as much since they’re technically able to swallow him. Snake Man liking him as much as he does isn’t helping either – Toad Man is half convinced he’ll one day forget they’re both robots and try to eat him. Which is why he’ll make a point of staying as far away from him as possible.
Reason for Joining: He wants to see other worlds, and he likes the idea of being helpful in other ways than what his current job allows him to.
Position Desired: Agent fits him well.
Point in Canon: After the end of Mega Man 9.
Notes: 1. The defense system that keeps being mentioned is a glitch in the fourth game – as long as you keep shooting at him he’ll keep jumping, meaning he never gets a chance to attack. 2. He’s about half-an-head shorter than most Robot Masters. 3. He’s tone-deaf. This is actually canon.
