Colonel was a solemn, striking Reploid whose immovable pride and deep sense of duty contributed to his tragic downfall. His dedication to Repliforce and its ideals was matched only by his affection for his little sister, Iris.
Indeed, Colonel's ties to Iris were the cause of several rifts that proved irreparable and, sadly, fatal. Designed by Repliforce, Colonel and Iris began life as a single Reploid that was engineered with both a pacifistic heart and fierce fighting prowess. The Reploid's love for peace, however, proved irreconcilable with its warlike capabilities. Repliforce's scientists ultimately split the project in twain: Iris was born as a gentle arbitrator, and Colonel as a warrior with a strong sense of honor.
It was that honor that prompted Colonel to hold his ground when he and his men were ordered to disarm following the deadly fall of the Sky Lagoon. Insulted by the accusation that Repliforce had a hand in the incident and the request to drop his weapons, Colonel broke off his friendship with Zero and went Maverick alongside the rest of Repliforce. The two former comrades clashed in some intense one-on-one combat, including a notable skirmish that ceased only when Iris intervened and begged them to stop fighting. Colonel did indeed stay his blade that day, but never again. When he next battled Zero at the Space Port, just as Repliforce moved to launch the Final Weapon into space, he fell to the Hunter. His last request was for Zero to tell his sister he died happily as a proud Repliforce warrior. Iris found no comfort in her brother's final words.

Colonel was surprisingly agile for his large build, and more than one foe underestimated his speed with fatal consequences. His favored weapon was a beam saber with a long red blade. He typically initiated combat with three quick strikes that fired arced shockwave lasers at his opponent, which he often followed up with a quick teleportation to a more advantageous position-usually behind his hapless target. When Colonel needed to cover a wider area, he'd call on Energy Breaker, a thunder attack technique that let him channel electrical energy from his saber into the ground, where the energy re-emerged as thin columns of lightning. When backed into a corner, Colonel would break out his Ground Crush, a huge shockwave that was even more damaging than the normal version.
