History
White Bomber, otherwise known as simply "Bomberman", is a member of a race of the same name, or "Bombers" for short, humanoid robotic beings that are capable of creating bombs from their own hands and seemingly out of thin air, hailing from the Planet Bomber. Bomberman has saved his own race countless times from interstellar threats as well as joined an intergalactic police force to protect that galaxy from crime. Despite being a robotic warrior fighting for peace, he is rather friendly, jolly, and kind-spirited, to the point where he even tries to form frienships with former enemies. However, he does not hold back and trains daily to become even stronger. While his actions result in the destruction of everything from steel doors to whole planets, Bomberman will always be around to stop any evil in the galaxy.

Notes
- ↑ While the Bomberman series technically debuted with the lesser known Bomber Man in 1983, the actual character of White Bomberman would debut within the NES version. Additionally, while the Japanese version of Bomberman suggests that its titular character becomes the protagonist of Lode Runner (which was also released in 1983), that game's protagonist is never seen as Bomberman in Lode Runner itself, and all future appearances of Bomberman ignore that suggestion, which still makes his debut the NES version of Bomberman.
