Description
had been designing the Navi versions ChemistryMan and Chaotique for the comics, and feeling inspired, I wanted to take a shot at doing BlastoWoman. Initially there weren't plans for her, mostly due to there already being a BlastMan.EXE, but she's different enough to avoid overlap. I used GutsMan.EXE as a basis, but made her rocket theme more pronounced. Like GutsMan, she uses her bulk and fists for attacks, with her signature move being the Blasto Punch, a heavy rocket punch.She's a solo Navi who takes on odd jobs to survive on the Net, and while not a bad sort, she usually winds up taking work from the villains haunting DenTech City like Neo World Three. She makes a point to stress it's nothing personal, just business. When no work presents itself, she resorts to petty thievery, usually plowing through firewalls and security to steal financial data for upgrades.

So basically she is Neutral affiliation.
Also, She would be a Breaker and Wind Navi as well, right?

Pretty much a Neutral, yeah.
I'm not as familiar with the game logic, but yeah that all sounds right.

Interesting. So instead of like those rocket boosters and wings on her back, the boosters are built into her whole body, like her legs, head, and shoulders. Kudos to the sideways rocket for the shoulders. She'd make an awesome boss in Battle Network.
Any plans on some of the other characters, like that one shadowy dude with the mustache and the mace ball, whatever his name was?

I do have some sketches of Sgt Breaker and Lord Obsidian patterned after Dr. Regal and LaserMan. Obsidian in this case is a Navi independent of Breaker though they likely can Cross Fuse.
While the commissioner doesn’t have plans to use a Namagem.EXE (MegaMan’s rival in FC), I have entertained the idea of making a Navi version to see how it’d look.

Ah Lord Obsidian, that's what his name was.

She reminds me Kamen Rider Fourze to
did you use some elements in this design?

I'm glad I inspired you for this. I love how you make it more like her whole body is the rocket. A lot of my friends have compared Blasto Woman to an aerial version of Guts Man (well more of the old-school and Battle Network incarnations of him, since Guts Man in Fully Charged is known not only for his strength but his appetite). Also a Mercenary Solo Navi seems about right.
And not just BlastMan.EXE. Don't forget this guy below, whom in the anime was referred to as "BlasterMan.EXE"
I imagine BlastoWoman.EXE would be a Breaker Type Net Navi, but with built-in Air Shoes. Some ideas for other attacks, one where she dives straight into you from above and breaks the panel where she hits. Another one, something similar to the CrackShot chip, where she breaks the panel in front of her and throws the debris at you (which would be more to her benefit since AirShoes would allow her to fly over broken panels). The Blasto Punch could work something like DustMan.EXE's Scrap Reborn, except a flying fist instead of a scrap robot. And of course, Guard abilities would be useless since like all Breaker Types, she can penetrate those defenses. I could expect her being like a first boss, but later returns as a much more improved version.
Also "Brute Force Hacking" is in fact a real computer hacking term, though considered the least effective means of hacking. A real world brute force hack essentially is trying all possible combinations of letters and numbers to find the password, which given the length of many passwords, even with a fast computer, could take months or even years to determine, which is why it is so ineffective.
I recall you're also doing one for Lord Obsidian, right? I had him in mind too, but yours I like a whole lot better from what you showed me.
One more thing. I don't think a Namagem.EXE would be practical. We've already got both Bass.EXE and Dark Megaman.EXE both filling that role.
