Original X

Description from original post (created 2013-07-27 11:53):

This is the original Mega Man X and original founder of Neo Arcadia. Having sacrificed his body to imprison the Dark Elf (due to the original seals power being overcomed by the Dark Elf's power), X lives on as a ghostly Cyber Elf. He can also manifest as a holographic version of his original robot form, dressed in a blue robe with what appears to be a halo around his head. He aids Zero throughout the series and still possesses great power. After his original body is destroyed he finds himself losing power... according to the book Vile's Incident. At the end MegaMan Zero 3 X along with the ghostly form of Phantom heal Leviathan and Fenfir and gather the remaining three guardians to help Zero defeat Omega. X proclaims to Zero and Weil that he once defeated this Omega with Zero long ago and he will help with Omega's defeat once again. X further motivates Zero by saying that the heart and not the body is what truly counts, which gives Zero the drive to finish Omega and his original body off. Hovering over an unconscious Zero X says that he doesn't have much time left in this world and that he asks Zero to continue fighting for the future of both reploids and humans. Artwork made for Mega Man Zero 4 depicts the four guardians and Original X wearing robes while they watch Ragnarok fall apart.
