Template:Enemy The Magnum Loader (マグナローダー Maguna Rōdā , lit. "Magna Roader") is an Emblem Heartless that is found in Kingdom Hearts II.
Story
After Ansem's computer "sucks" him in, Sora wakes up in Space Paranoids, where he finds Donald and Goofy captured by several Magnum Loaders.
When Sora is forced to play the game, different types of Magnum Loaders with different abilities appear as enemies trying to derezz Sora.
After the MCP gains control of the Heartless manufacturer, he creates several Heartless that exist in the Space Paranoids to attack Hollow Bastion, and some of them are Magnum Loaders. Back in the computer world, several of them attack Tron, but he is saved by Sora, Donald and Goofy.
Design
A Magnum Loader's most prominent feature is the single, large wheel that comprises its lower body and provides its only means of movement. It is almost entirely black and is covered in red computer circuitry. Its head is long, sleek, and oval-shaped, and sports a jagged, red antenna on its top. Each of its short arms lead into grey, cylindrical hands tipped with conical, red spikes. Its glowing, yellow eyes are just barely visible in the front of its head. Its Heartless emblem is on its chest. During the Light Cycle games, several Magnum Loaders appear with circuitry that is a different color than the standard red, including gold, green, blue, and silver.
The Magnum Loader's name is a mistranslation of "Magna Roader", the same name as the Magna Roader from Final Fantasy VI, which is also a fast, unicycle enemy. Alternatively, "loader" can refer to a computer program that prepares others for commencement. "Magnum" is a Latin word that means "great".
Strategy
The Magnum Loader is swift on its cycle-like wheel. These creatures are encountered when Sora races on a Light Cycle.
