Samus Aran is the protagonist of the Metroid series and an intergalactic bounty hunter who occasionally visits Mushroom World. She was orphaned as a young girl through the combined efforts of Ridley and the Space Pirates and was adopted by the surviving members of the bird-like Chozo race. She was infused with Chozo blood and was given a Power Suit. After a brief stint as a member of the Galactic Federation, she then decided to become a bounty hunter and fight the Space Pirates and Ridley. The series was actually started by Shigeru Miyamoto's mentor, Gunpei Yokoi
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
Samus Aran rests before a major battle.
In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, Samus travelled to the Mushroom Kingdom to stay at the guest room of the royal castle. Apparently, Samus needed a place to rest before battling the evil Mother Brain.
Samus also appears in Super Smash Bros., Super Smash Bros. Melee, and Super Smash Bros. Brawl as a playable character.
Samus as she appears in Melee.
In the Super Smash Bros. series, Samus is a heavy, slow character, but has many powerful attacks. Her strongest is her Charge Shot, but only when charged enough. In Melee, she added a Missile attack, which is a guided missile attack. Also, she is one of the few characters who has an attack which has the same name as an item, in this case, Screw Attack.
She has a special grabbing technique, her Grappling Beam, which allows her to grab characters standing further away. She is also one of the few characters who can wall jump.
Despite being very heavy, Samus falls at a very slow speed, which does make her vulnerable to vertical KOs.
