Rokkuman

First Appearance: Kid Icarus (1986) Latest Appearance: Kid Icarus (1986) Affiliation(s): Medusa Enemy Type: Falling

Rokman (ロックマン Rokkuman) is a foe encountered in the Overworld. These creatures fall from the sky and are a rich source of Hearts and experience points, but scoring a hit during its brief attack run can be difficult.

Characteristics

The Rokman is but a boulder with limbs and a face. Little is actually known about these creatures, as they do not move of their own accord.

Appearances

Kid Icarus

"A rock life form. It falls suddenly out of the blue onto Pit's head. Its body is very hard so Pit will receive a lot of damage if it drops on him."

Kid Icarus: Uprising

There is a boss who suspiciously looks similar to a Rokman named Cragalanche that appears in this adventure as a servant of Viridi, but there is no mentioning whether the creature is actually a Rokman or not.

Trivia

• The Rokman may be loosely based on Sisyphus, a king of Greek and Roman mythology that suffered eternal punishment by being forced to repeatedly roll a large boulder uphill, only to have it drop back down again.
