Rocka is a Rookie Hero Factory agent, member of the Alpha 1 Team, and Hero Recon Team volunteer.

Biography

Rocka was recently created in the Assembly Tower with the most up to date parts (such as the 2.0 upgrade) and the latest available technology. As the scientists wanted to create another exceptional rookie Hero, they modeled Rocka after their last successful creation, William Furno. Since his creation, he has spent the majority of his time in the Training Sphere, completing over 100 missions. He also befriended the Alpha 1 Team and was accepted as a member of its Rookie 1 division.

Savage Planet

Rocka 2

Rocka fighting off a Fangz on Quatros.

When the Hero Factory received a distress call from Professor Aldous Witch, Rocka was told to return to Hero Factory, and another hero squad would investigate. But Rocka disobeyed orders, saying that it was a "Hero's duty to help those in need." However, upon arriving, he realized that the distress call was fake, and was then confronted by Aldous Witch, who had become the Witch Doctor. After members of the Alpha Team were given the Upgrade to animal armor, they arrived on Quatros in order to investigate. The Heroes then came into opposition with the local wildlife, which the heroes started to battle. During this time, Rocka was shrunken along with Preston Stormer and Dunkan Bulk, but he and his teammates were eventually restored by Julius Nex. Rocka then was briefly transformed to an XL form, which he used to defeat Witch Doctor.

Breakout

Rocka in Breakout

Rocka using his Energy Shield and Crossbow to fight off multiple Arachnix Drone.

Rocka was tasked with capturing Voltix who carried the essence of Von Nebula. Voltix freed all the captured villains and escaped. Heroes were then sent out on missions, while Rocka stayed back at the Hero Factory by the order of the HRT. Rocka was in the containment facility when Black Phantom took over. He contacted Zib multiple times. Rocka climbed an elevator shaft but was forced to jump back down. He was then attacked by multiple Arachnix drones. He escaped to Mr. Makuro’s quarters and lowered the fail-safe shield. He met up with the rest of Alpha 1 and told about Black Phantom's plan, Furno asked how he was able to steer-clear Black Phantom and lower the fail-safe shield all by himself. He then revealed himself as being part of the Hero Recon Team, explaining that he was ordered to stay and investigate on a possible attack, and that the villain wanted the Black Hole Staff placed inside the Hero Factory as part of a larger plan. And finally, he fought Black Phantom in the Assembly Tower, plugging him even more to overpower him, defeating him.

The Doom Box

During the period of time when Core Hunter was trying to re-create the Doom Box, Rocka was sent to an asteroid prison dubbed “The Stone” to interrogate Splitface on a tip given to Alpha 1 by Arctur, dealing with Speeda Demon, who had previously worked with Splitface in an alliance. After interrogating Splitface for a while; Rocka learned the Speeda Demon had sold a map carved by Deneb to Core Hunter detailing the locations of the Doom Box’s several parts. Rocka then ventured to the homeworld of Arctur and Deneb, hoping to find someone who knew something about the Doom Box but found nobody, except for Arctur, who was waiting for him. Arctur then led him into the underground complex that was once the lab that he, Deneb, and others worked in before teleporting away to bring the rest of Alpha 1 in, but while they were gone, Core Hunter arrived with all three pieces of the box ready to unite them. Rocka quickly ran out of the tunnels and met with the rest of Alpha 1. Back in the lab, there was a showdown with Core Hunter and [who?] tried to bluff him, but only succeeded in making him kill Arctur, before activating the Box. However, before dying, Arctur enacted a plan to de-activate the Box, which ended largely in success, causing the Box’s power to feed into Core Hunter. Rocka tried to charge him,[who?] but failed when energy was siphoned from his system, rendering him unconscious while Mark Surge defeated Core Hunter. He later recovered from his injuries.

Brain Attack

Rocka Jet Form

During the Brain Attack saga, Rocka and Stormer’s Alpha 1 Team went to defend Makuhero City. Rocka fought bravely against many brain-infested creatures. When a Dragon Bolt attacked, Rocka personally went against the monster while the rest of the team fought Surge, who had been infested. Rocka fought the Dragon Bolt but was defeated by the Dragon’s electric fireball. Rocka hid from the beast in an equipment room in the Hero Factory where he found a jetpack. Using the jetpack he fought the Dragon Bolt and successfully removed its Brain.

Abilities and Traits

As Rocka was modeled after Furno, his personality is very similar to the former rookie. Rocka is extremely headstrong and self-assured, willing to accept a challenge without thinking of his own limitations. His time spent in the training sphere has granted him intelligence and a diverse skill set.

Appearance

Rocka initially bore gold armor, while his eyes and Hero Core were colored white.

In Rocka’s 3.0 form, he wears gold and black armor and retains his white eyes and Hero Core. His helmet now resembles that of a Lion, as a sign of his new powers.

In Breakout, he has a neon green head with gold and gunmetal armor.

His Brain Attack form looks quite similar to his Breakout version, but with the additions of a neon green visor over his helmet, golden shield, and neon green sword. His color scheme now has more gunmetal.

Weapons

Rocka originally carried a shield as his main weapon.

After his Upgrade to 3.0 form, he currently carries a large multifunctional claw, and has been known to use a projectile weapon with unknown effects.

When he was upgraded to his breakout form, he carried a crossbow gun and energy shield.

Shortly after the Breakout event; he was upgraded to his Brain Attack form, he now carries a Plasma Blade Sword and Razor Shield.

Trivia

  • Rocka is voiced by Tom Kenny in Savage Planet, Breakout, and Brain Attack.
  • Rocka was never a 1.0 Hero as Stringer mentioned that Rocka was born with the Upgrade. That means that he was born already with the 2.0 Upgraded Form.
  • Rocka was credited as “Daniel Rocka” in some releases of the “Savage Planet” DVD while the Breakout episodes do not credit his first name for some reason. In the credits to Brain Attack and Invasion From Below, it is revealed that Daniel is definitely his first name.
  • Although he hasn't been in either the first or second series, Rocka has appeared in every series since his debut in Savage Planet.
  • Rocka’s 2.0 Form had the same headset as Breez, but his weapon is a golden version of Evo’s Multi-Tool Ice Shield.
  • Due to Rocka being introduced in the 3.0 line, his 2.0 Form never had an official set release. As a result it’s only seen in Savage Planet and in the comic titled Savage Planet.
