Warhead

WarHead is the main antagonist in the first VectorMan game. He used to be named Raster but renamed himself when a nuclear weapon was attached to him.

History
He was simply just a more powerful Orbot named Raster when attendants accidentally placed a nuclear device on his body. After that, he renamed himself to the name he has now and stands for things like tyranny and oppression. He now attacks anyone who returns to the polluted planet Earth in 2049.

He engaged in combat with VectorMan multiple times in short levels and finally was defeated in the game's final level.

Appearance
In the information at the beginning of the game, he appears to be red and white. However, everywhere else, he is gray. He is mainly dark gray with reddish-orange amber eyes and has large arms. His lower body is seemingly shown as a navy blue tornado, but in the game's second level, his entire body is shown and just has oval-shaped orbs for feet.

Abilities
WarHead is capable of firing laser beams, as shown in the Disco level. He can also fire smaller fireball-looking projectiles. In the final battle, he prefers to repeat this tactic along with moving erratically. If he manages to hit the player with one of his arms, they are knocked back and damaged.

Personality
It seems that he has gone insane after he became WarHead. He attacks anyone who comes to Earth and abhors VMan. He became ruler of Earth. Since he became this way, it's possible that he has no feelings for others, mainly himself.

Battle Guide
In the second level, when he tries to chase you, damage his hand when you can see it in front of you. Do this three or four times to beat the level.

In Rock N' Roller, damage his hands multiple times. Only one has to be destroyed to defeat him in this level. Be careful as it is easy to slip and fall here.

In the Disco level, attack his head when the wall around him opens up in front of you. Shoot in that space enough times. In many player's first play-throughs, they do not realize that they have 40 seconds to beat the level. Just do it as quick as possible and avoid the yellow cyclones spinning around.

In the final battle, he moves insanely erratically and shoots projectiles at you. Damage him enough times and there will be visible damage. At some point, he will be defeated and float up into the air. and off screen at some point.

Trivia
