Metroid
is an action-adventure game franchise created by Nintendo. The player controls the bounty hunter Samus Aran, who protects the galaxy from Space Pirates and other malevolent forces and their attempts to harness the power of the parasitic Metroid creatures. ''Metroid'' combines the platforming of '' Super Mario Bros.'' and the exploration of ''The Legend of Zelda'' with a science fiction setting and an emphasis on nonlinear gameplay. Most ''Metroid'' games are side-scrolling, while the 3D games use a first-person perspective. Players battle hostile alien enemies and obtain power-ups as they progress through the game world. The series is known for its isolated atmosphere, featuring few non-player characters. The first '' Metroid'' was developed by Nintendo R&D1 and released on the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1986. '' Metroid II: Return of Samus'' was released for the handheld Game Boy in 1991. '' Super Metroid'' (1994), released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment ...

Mother Brain
is a fictional character created by Nintendo for the ''Metroid'' series. She is one of the most prominent antagonists within the series, serving as the main antagonist of ''Metroid'' and ''Super Metroid''. Mother Brain has been killed multiple times by series protagonist Samus Aran. Her ''Super Metroid'' design was originally milder than its final version, resembling an "old lady living in an apartment complex" when designed by Toru Osawa. This design was altered by Tomomi Yamane, who gave her an overall more monstrous appearance. She takes the form of a large brain that sits within a jar, from which she controls the Space Pirates on the fictional planet Zebes. Since ''Super Metroid'' (1994), she has had a single large eye. Mother Brain has made several appearances in other media, most notably as the primary antagonist in '' Captain N: The Game Master'' and archenemy of Kevin Keene. Since appearing in the ''Metroid'' series, she has received positive reception. Concept and ch ...

Ridley (Metroid)
, also known in-universe by the alias Cunning God of Death, is a fictional character and the main antagonist of the ''Metroid'' series. An evil and aggressive draconic extraterrestrial, he became Samus Aran's archnemesis after murdering the latter's parents as he led a Space Pirate raid on her homeworld. Though having been destroyed numerous times by Samus, he is repeatedly resurrected through various means.
