Introduction
The Biometal System (also known as the R.O.C.K. [Rebirth Of Crystallised Knowledge] or M.E.G.A. [Mega-Encapsulated Granule Awareness] system), created by Ciel, is the process of storing the knowledge, personality and other data of a Reploid, some being more famous than others. The project was originally created to analyse the data of Dr. Weil (Dr. Vile), creating Biometal Model W. When this Biometal was removed from the lab (stolen by Serpent), 6 other Models were created. These include the legendary heroes X and Zero, as well as the four Guardians: Harpuia, Fefnir, Leviathan and Phantom. Anyone who uses the wisdom of a Biometal, takes on an 'living' armor representing the stored individual, and is regarded as a Mega Man (Rockman).
The Biometal 'Models' that are collected in Mega Man ZX are X, Z, H, F, L, P and O. From a certain point in the game, Model X is combined with Model Z to form Model ZX, and is also distributed for combining with future acquired Biometals, namely Models H, F, L, P, and O. These models are later gained from battle. Model W is not acquirable by the player, and is used only by Serpent.
