About this title
Synopsis
Earth colony K-2L—important to the Galactic Federation for its mass reserves of the mineral Afloraltite—is visited by the Chozo, a tribe of ancient bird-like aliens renowned for their wisdom. Old Bird, a notable Chozo elder, takes a liking to the bold human toddler Samus Aran. Although Samus lives peacefully on K-2L with her parents, their stability is destroyed by the arrival of the ruthless Space Pirate Ridley and his crew of monstrous aliens. Ridley rips through the inhabitants of K-2L, but Samus narrowly escapes a violent death. Old Bird and the other Chozo take her to Zebes, their home planet, and raise her as one of their own. Due to the harsh environment on Zebes, Samus is infused with Chozo DNA to strengthen her fledgling body. As a young adult, Samus makes a name for herself as a bounty hunter in service of the Galactic Federation. Grappling with PTSD stemming from the massacre she witnessed as a child, Samus defeats deadly alien forces across the galaxy and strives to maintain peace for the innocent lives around her.

Main characters
Samus Aran159 fan favoritesExternal profileSamus Aran is an intergalactic bounty hunter and the protagonist of the Metroid series. Orphaned during a Space Pirate raid on her home of K-2L, Samus was adopted by the mysterious Chozo and taken to Zebes, where she was infused with their DNA and raised to become a warrior. Once she reached adulthood, Samus joined the Federation Police and served under the Commanding Officer Adam Malkovich. Though she ultimately left to become a Bounty Hunter, she was nonetheless hired by the Galactic Federation on many occasions. Equipped with her cybernetic Power Suit, Samus has become famous for accomplishing missions previously thought impossible. Her most renowned achievements are the destruction of the Space Pirate base on Zebes, her role in ending the Galactic Phazon crisis, her extermination of the Metroid species, and her disobedience of orders at the Biologic Space Laboratories research station where she chose to destroy the deadly X Parasites rather than turn them over to the Galactic Federation.
