Aeolus (ヘリオス, Heriosu, lit. "Helios") is a boss in Mega Man ZX Advent who is the Biomatch for Biometal Model H. He is one of the four rival Mega Men who seeks to empower Model W and win the Game of Destiny. He is fought in the Floating Ruins.
Appearance[]
Aeolus is a pale young man with long silver-green hair with a thick, pointed fringe covering one half of his face. He wears an archetypal Mega Man vest with a green color and coattails extending to his ankles, and has elegant pointed shoes and earrings on his earpieces. He is always seen holding a sword in a royal-looking scabbard.
Due to Aeolus' hairstyle, it is difficult to tell if he is a Humanoid or Reploid (since it covers his forehead where a red Reploid mark might be).
Personality[]
Aeolus is an arrogant and haughty individual, treating everyone with a prideful disdain especially the inexperienced Model A Mega Man. He deems mankind foolish and cites this as the root cause of all conflict; thus, he plays the Game of Destiny to bring peace by ridding the Earth of whatever he deems ignorance. Thetis is allegedly the only Mega Man who Aeolus can tolerate, as he despises Grey and Siarnaq for their incompleteness, Atlas for her stubborn obsession with conflict, and Ashe for her unrealistic optimism. He also refuses to believe that he was manipulated by Master Albert, showing that he never accepts his mistakes.
Aeolus shares the uptight perfectionism of Model H's template, Sage Harpuia from the Mega Man Zero series, but with an extra selfish edge. In spite of this selfishness, he is touched by Model Z's sacrifice to let Vent/Aile escape, showing a softer side under his arrogance, or at least an appreciation for such poetic gestures.
