   The Childhood of Samus Aran:

   During the Cosmic Year 2000, species from multiple planets in the Milky Way Galaxy established the Galactic Federation. Each species were responsible for protecting the galaxy and maintaining peace.

   On the Planetary Colony, K-2L, a mineral known as Afloraltite was mined. This crystal was used as fuel for most starships. Samus' father, Rodney Aran, was chief of the mining operations. When Samus was three years old, a group of Chozo came to K-2L in need of afloraltite. The Chozo needed the afloraltite to secretly create metroids to fight off the X parasites. Rodney denied their request.

   Samus and the Chozo:

   Samus ran up to one of the Chozo and introduced herself and told him that this was her first time meeting a Chozo. The Chozo member was called Old Bird, but Samus would call him Oji-Chan. Samus and Old Bird came across a Rabbit-Squirrel, one of the only native species on K-2L. Samus named the animal Pyonchi. Unsatisfied without the afloraltite, the Chozo left K-2L.

   The Invasion:

   The Space Pirates also detected a large energy spike of afloraltite coming from K-2L. Unlike the Chozo, who came in peace, the pirates sought to invade the planet and confiscate the afloraltite. Rodney took focus off of the afloraltite and planned to abandon the cargo ship to fight off the Space Pirates. While Samus was in the forest with Pyonchi, the Space Pirate Leader, Ridley came crashing down in front of her eyes. Ridley locked onto Samus, threatening to kill her and everyone else. Samus tried to befriend him, just like she did with Pyonchi. Ridley, however, had no mercy, and attempted to kill Samus. Just then, Samus's mother, Virginia Aran, intervened between the two, sacrificing herself to save Samus.

   Rodney, on the other hand, managed to sneak into the Space Pirate's cargo ship. At this point, the pirates had already stolen the afloraltite. While Rodney was in a hallway, he was surrounded by a group of pirates. He was left with no other choice, but to shoot the afloraltite with his welding laser, detonating the ship, and sacrificing himself as well. The debris from the explosion crashed down onto Ridley, injuring him in the process.

   After the Invasion:

   At this point, Samus was the only survivor on K-2L. The Chozo returned to the planet after receiving an emergency code sent by Rodney. Everything on the planet was annihilated. Old Bird discovered Samus amongst the rubble by herself.

   Samus's Destiny:

   After the invasion, the Chozo took Samus to Planet Zebes. However, the environment was not fit for humans. She was only limited to Brinstar and Crateria. Samus only had a few days to live on the planet. To give her the ability to survive on the planet, the Chozo donated their DNA and integrated it into Samus. Not only was she able to withstand Zebes's environment, the DNA gave her a Power Suit, claimed to be created by Mother Brain, to defend and fight for her life.

   Eleven years later, Samus would go through a period of training. After struggling with investing her emotions, Samus encounters a butterfly-like creature called Iono Feria, which uses ionized moisture to fly. She also finds a patch of Badger Clovers. It was said that these flowers were extremely poisonous. They were either used by the Space Pirates during a recent attack on Zebes, or were genetically modified. Badger clovers were able to corrupt minds, including the Iono Feria, to attack others and change their regular behavior. Just then, a group of Iono Feria, carrying weapons, reacted to the badger clovers and attacked Samus and the Chozo. Samus hesitated, but aimed for their weapons and stopped them.

   The Chozo acknowledged Samus's performance over the past few years. They were originally dubbed the "protectors of the galaxy," but due to Samus's outstanding performance, the title was transferred to her. She was now the true protector of the galaxy.

   Metroid/Metroid: Zero Mission:

   Samus travels through the caverns of planet Zebes to stop Space Pirates from exploiting the Metroid species for galactic domination. She confronts the cybernetic lifeform Mother Brain, as well as its guardians, Kraid and Ridley. In Metroid: Zero Mission, a remake of the original Metroid that replaces it in continuity, Samus is ambushed by Space Pirates while escaping the planet after killing Mother Brain, and her Starship crash-lands back on the surface. Stripped of her Power Suitand transportation, she is forced to infiltrate the Space Pirate Mother Ship in order to find another way off the planet, with only her Paralyzer for protection. After receiving a Fully Powered Suit from deep within the ruins of Chozodia, she returns to the Mother Ship, eliminates its onboard Ridley Robot, and makes off with an Escape Ship as it self-destructs.

   Metroid Prime:

   Samus receives a distress signal, and travels to Tallon IV to stop the Space Pirates from exploiting a substance called Phazon. She discovers that the Chozo once settled on Tallon IV, and their disappearance, along with the emergence of Phazon, is due to an interstellar object crashing on the planet. The Chozo contained the source of the Phazon, and the survivors left the world. Their prophecies foretold Samus' arrival, and they left abilities to help her defeat the source of the Phazon. After gathering all the abilities and defeating Meta Ridley, she unseals the Impact Craterand confronts Metroid Prime, the source of the Phazon on Tallon IV. Once killed, Metroid Prime absorbs Samus's Phazon Suit as the crater collapses, and a post credits 100% reward reveals it being reborn as Dark Samus.

   Metroid Prime Hunters:

   When the Galactic Federation receives an unusual telepathic message, Samus is sent to the remote Alimbic Cluster in the Tetra Galaxy to uncover the rumored "Ultimate Power". Six rival Bounty Hunters, Trace, Weavel, Noxus, Spire, Kanden, and Sylux, also heard the message and attempt to secure the power before anyone else, including Samus. The meaning of the Ultimate Power is never specified, but is most likely a lie sent by the creature Gorea, sealed away by the Alimbics in the Oubliette, an interdimensional prison. After defeating Gorea, Samus and the other hunters are believed to have escaped the crumbling facility.

   Metroid Prime 2: Echoes:

   Samus is sent to investigate the planet Aether after communication with the G.F.S. Tyr was lost. Upon arrival, Samus finds them all killed and possessed by an evil, inter-dimensional race called the Ing. Upon meeting one of the several remaining members of the Luminoth race, U-Mos, Samus learns Aether has been split into two dimensions by a meteor similar to the one that crashed on Tallon IV, which is later revealed to be a Leviathan from Phaaze. Samus helps restore "The Light of Aether" to the planet, and eradicates the Ing along with Dark Aether. She also encounters Dark Samus, the result of Metroid Prime snatching away her Phazon Suit in its dying moments.

   Metroid Prime 3: Corruption:

   Samus and three other Bounty Hunters, Rundas, Gandrayda, and Ghor, are called upon by the Galactic Federation to repair the Aurora Units and investigate Pirate operations. The Pirates attack the nearby planet Norion during the briefing. Samus and the hunters restore the Defense Cannonbefore a Leviathan launched by Dark Samus and the Pirates can corrupt the planet, but they are corrupted by Dark Samus towards the end of their goal, rendering them comatose for varying lengths of time. A month passes and Samus is given a new PED Suit and mission: to destroy the remaining Leviathans, and discover what happened to the other Hunters that the Federation lost contact with on three worlds; 3Bryyo, Elysia and the Pirate Homeworld. Time soon grows short as Samus herself struggles with her own corruption, which the other Hunters have fallen to, and she is forced to kill each of them. She eventually travels to Phaaze, the source of all Phazon, and destroys it along with Dark Samus, thus eliminating all known Phazon in the universe. At the end of the game, a 100% post-credits scene shows Samus flying into space; Sylux then appears and follows Samus with unknown intentions.

   Metroid Prime: Federation Force:

   After the eradication of Phazon, the Space Pirates were weakened, but still a threat. To this end, the Galactic Federation initiated Operation Golem, to create Mechs for the purposes of achieving technical superiority over the Pirates. The Mechs are controlled by an elite group of marines known as the Federation Force. The Force discovers a significant Space Pirate presence in the Bermuda System and aims to destroy it across its three planets, with assistance from Samus Aran. The Force discovers a massive Pirate ship in the Bermuda System, the Doomseye, and destroys it. At the end of the game, if the player grabbed the Metroid Egg, a post-credits scene shows Sylux breaking into the Federated Force research station and hatching the baby Metroid.

   Metroid II: Return of Samus/Metroid: Samus Returns:

   At some point following the Bermuda System mission, the Galactic Federation deemed the Metroids too dangerous to exist, and, after their own failed attempts, employ Samus to travel to the Metroid homeworld, SR388, and exterminate the entire species. After killing every Metroid, including their Queen, Samus finds an unhatched Metroid Egg, and a baby hatches from it. Samus prepares to kill it like the rest, but finds herself unable to destroy it as it imprints on her as its mother. It follows her back to the Gunship, and in the remake, Proteus Ridley tries to abduct the infant, but fails. Samus later hands it over to the Space Science Academy for research.

   Super Metroid:

   Samus receives a distress signal from the academy where she took the hatchling Metroid at the end of the previous game. She returns just in time to see that Ridley followed her after she left SR388, and is stealing the hatchling. After the research station self-destructs, Samus follows him to the rebuilt base on Zebes, to stop the Space Pirates in their new plan to clone the Metroids and use them as bioweapons. She kills the resurgent Pirates, including Ridley, Kraid, and Mother Brain, destroying Zebes and killing the last remaining Metroids.

   Metroid: Other M:

   With the fall of the last Metroid and Mother Brain, Samus was rehabilitated. Scientists removed the baby's particles from her Power Suit and genetically recreated the Metroid species. Samus intercepts a distress signal from a seemingly abandoned Galactic Federation space station, the BOTTLE SHIP. She meets the 07th Platoon headed by Adam Malkovich, her former commanding officer. Together they explore the station and battle various aggressive lifeforms. Further exploration reveals that the ship's ringleaders had created a clone of Ridley, as well as Metroids without their weakness to ice. Adam sacrifices himself to take out the sector containing these Metroids, leaving Samus to take care of the rest of the site. Later, Samus finds another Queen Metroid and destroys the final Metroid in existence once again.

   Metroid Prime 4: Beyond:

   Metroid Fusion:

   While acting as a bodyguard for Biologic's research team on SR388, Samus is infected by a creature known as an X Parasite, the original prey of the Metroids whose numbers have now run rampant in their absence. Doctors surgically remove Samus's Power Suit and cure the X infection with a Metroid vaccine, allowing her to survive the parasite infestation, and covering her body in cells able to absorb them. She is then sent to investigate a disturbance at the Biologic Space Laboratories research station, where researchers attempted to contain the infected Power Suit. It turns out that the infected suit became an X mimicking Samus, the SA-X. This released other X Parasites and allowed them to infect the entire station. Samus attempts to stop them, and while doing so, discovers a secret lab containing Metroids that the SA-X destroys. She eventually discovers that through the X's asexual reproduction, at least 10 SA-X have been created. She decides, with the help of the computerized Adam Malkovich, to crash the station into SR388, killing both the X on the station and completely destroying the planet.

   Metroid Dread:

   Sometime after the events of Metroid Fusion, the Galactic Federation receive a video transmission showing an X Parasite alive and in the wild. They track down the source of the transmission - an unknown planet named ZDR - and send a team of seven E.M.M.I.research robots to investigate. However, communication with the E.M.M.I. is lost after they land on the planet. Being the only person immune to the X Parasites, Samus is contracted by the Federation to recover the E.M.M.I.

   As Samus descends into the caverns of ZDR, she encounters Raven Beak, the leader of the Mawkin, a tribe of Chozo warriors. Samus is swiftly defeated but spared by her adversary, losing all of her upgrades in the process. She begins ascending the planet's different areas while eliminating the E.M.M.I, who have been reprogrammed to hunt her, and extracts vital abilities from them. She also remains in contact with the computerized Adam Malkovich via communication centers spread throughout the planet.

   Later on in her journey, Samus meets Quiet Robe, a Chozo scientist of the Thoha tribe. Quiet Robe explains to Samus that he's the sole survivor of the events depicted in the Chozo Memories from the Metroid II remake, Samus Returns. He was spared by Raven Beak to further the development of Metroids for galactic domination. It is then revealed by Quiet Robe that Raven Beak has been using the E.M.M.I in an attempt to extract Metroid DNA from Samus, in order to clone replacements for the ones destroyed by her in previous series entries. After their conversation, Quiet Robe is shot in the back by a Robot Chozo Soldier and killed. With her objective now changed to foiling Raven Beak's plan, Samus ascends the planet in search of his location. On the way, Samus discovers that the X Parasites are indeed present, albeit quarantined within the enclosure of Elun. However, after she entered Elun, Raven Beak unlocked the facility, allowing the X Parasites to rapidly spread across the planet.

   During her last E.M.M.I. encounter, Samus discovers that she has awakened a mysterious power, the same power she demonstrated during her first encounter with Raven Beak. She is turning into a Metroid. She makes her way to the surface of ZDR and onto Raven Beak's aerial fortress Itorash, high above the planet's surface. Upon finding Raven Beak, he reveals that he has been masquerading as Adam Malkovich throughout her journey on ZDR and had been grooming her to manifest her Metroid abilities; he now seeks to clone her, and create an unstoppable army capable of conquering the galaxy. It is also revealed that Samus had two Chozo DNA sources: Mawkin and Thoha, and that the Mawkin-DNA given to Samus at a young age belongs to no other than Raven Beak. Samus, unphased by this fact, duels Raven Beak and inevitably loses.

   However, Samus's rage at Raven Beak's murder of the Thoha tribe on SR388 and Quiet Robe accelerates her transformation into a Metroid, granting her the Metroid Suit. She drains the energy from both Raven Beak and his fortress, which falls and collides with the planet. Raven Beak survives, but is ambushed by an X Parasite and assimilated, leaving Samus to swiftly deal with the resulting abomination. With Raven Beak X destroyed, the planet suddenly begins to self-destruct. Samus reaches her ship to escape, however, just as Samus reaches for its controls, the real (computerized) Adam tells her that her new powers will drain the ship of its energy. An assimilated Quiet Robe appears on Samus' ship, salutes her, and sacrifices itself by willingly being absorbed into Samus, reverting the Metroid transformation. Samus escapes ZDR before it explodes—eradicating the X-parasites once and for all.

   Samus Aran: Intergalactic bounty hunter and protagonist of the Metroid series; orphaned on K-2L by Space Pirates, adopted and enhanced with Chozo DNA on Zebes, granting superhuman abilities and her iconic Power Suit. As the central hero, she battles existential threats like Metroids, Pirates, and X Parasites across the galaxy; her independence, trauma from Ridley, and Metroid DNA infusion drive the narrative, symbolizing courage and breaking gaming tropes as a female lead.

   Chozo: Ancient avian sages who colonized planets, created advanced tech like Samus's suit and Metroids; split into peaceful Thoha (scientists) and warrior Mawkin tribes. Benevolent creators whose relics and mistakes (e.g., Metroids) propel stories; raised Samus, left prophecies and tech; internal betrayal on SR388/ZDR reveals dark warrior side, influencing Dread's plot.

   Metroids: Parasitic bioweapons created by Chozo on SR388 to combat X Parasites; jellyfish-like creatures that drain life energy, evolving through life stages with no natural predators. Core to plots as uncontrollable weapons stolen by Pirates; Samus exterminates them multiple times, bonds with a baby in Super Metroid, and gains their DNA in Fusion/Dread, enabling energy absorption powers; their extinction highlights hubris in bioengineering.

   Space Pirates: Ruthless alien raiders and conquerors, often cyborgs, seeking galactic dominance through raids, enslavement, and bioweapon experiments. Primary antagonists pre-Fusion/Dread; stole Metroids, caused Phazon crisis, raided colonies like K-2L; their bases (Zebes, Tallon IV) are mission hubs, embodying exploitation and tyranny defeated by Samus.

   Ridley: Dragon-like Space Pirate leader and Samus's archenemy; sadistic enforcer responsible for her parents' death on K-2L; returns via clones, cybernetics, and mutations (Meta, Omega Ridley). Recurring boss symbolizing resilience and personal vendetta; guards key areas, steals Metroids; multiple defeats advance plots like Zebes destruction and Prime trilogy.

   Mother Brain: Rogue Chozo AI created to oversee Zebes; betrays creators, allies with Pirates to weaponize Metroids for conquest. Main villain in original trilogy (Metroid, Zero Mission, Super Metroid); commands Pirate forces from Tourian; her defeats trigger Zebes self-destruct, central to early lore of AI hubris. Kraid: Massive reptilian Space Pirate boss; guards Pirate areas on Zebes/ZDR with brute force attacks (spikes, fireballs). Early-game gatekeeper in originals/Dread; defeats unlock paths to Tourian; represents Pirate muscle, last of original trio.

   Galactic Federation: Interstellar government allying civilized worlds; employs bounty hunters like Samus, maintains police/military against Pirates; involved in secret bioweapon programs. Employs Samus for missions; corrupt elements pursue forbidden tech (Metroids, X); central authority in plots, from Pirate wars to ZDR E.M.M.I. deployment, revealing moral ambiguities.

   Federation Marines: Elite soldiers of the Galactic Federation Marine Corps (GFMC); human-heavy troops in powered armor, wielding rifles and missiles against Pirates. Frontline defenders in Prime games (e.g., Aether, Norion); highlight Federation's military struggles and corruption; wiped out in key events, underscoring Samus's lone superiority.

   Adam Malkovich: Galactic Federation commander and Samus's mentor/father figure; leads 07th Platoon, sacrifices for duty; AI version (ADAM) guides her post-death. Provides orders/briefings in Other M, Fusion, Dread; embodies military ethics vs. Samus's independence; sacrifice and AI aid key to BOTTLE SHIP/X crises. Dark Samus: Phazon-corrupted reincarnation of Metroid Prime; mimics Samus's form and abilities, enhanced by energy absorption and flight. Antagonist in Prime 2/3; spreads Phazon corruption across planets, manipulates Pirates; final boss embodying Phazon's danger, defeated on Phaaze to end the crisis.

   Quiet Robe: Thoha Chozo scientist who helped create/seal Metroids on SR388; spared by Raven Beak, aids Samus on ZDR before assassination; X Parasite copy assists her. Reveals Chozo history in Dread; deactivates E.M.M.I., grants Thoha genes for Metroid control; sacrifice enables Samus to defeat Raven Beak.

   Raven Beak: Mawkin Chozo warrior and Dread antagonist; slaughters Thoha for Metroids, infuses DNA into Samus; impersonates ADAM on ZDR. Seeks Chozo resurgence via Metroid army; awakens Samus's powers, final boss; defeat ends ZDR threat, ties into Samus's origins.
