![]() ![]() Maridia - The flooded caves of Zebes, seen exclusively in Super Metroid.In Super Metroid, Samus needs the Gravity Suit to explore the area safely. The Gold Torizo miniboss also resides in Ridley's Lair. This area serves as the base for Ridley, the most infamous of the Space Pirate leaders and one of the two main Enforcers. Ridley's Lair is completely artificial as it includes Chozo Ruins and possibly Space Pirate technology. Ridley's Lair - An area of Zebes that is even deeper than Norfair.Home to the Super Metroid miniboss Crocomire and the Zero Mission miniboss Kiru Giru. The Fire-Sea of Norfair boasts incredibly high temperatures, requiring Samus to obtain the Varia Suit before exploring portions of it. Norfair - The fiery underground caves of Zebes.As the name implies, this is the hideout of Kraid, a veteran Space Pirate leader and one of their main Enforcers. It contains a unique zip line system in Zero Mission. Kraid's Lair - A moist subsection of Brinstar that teemed with flora and small animal life.Home to the Zero Mission and Super Metroid minibosses Charge Beam Beast and Spore Spawn, respectively. Brinstar - Includes two main sections: a lush underground jungle and a network of caverns primarily composed of dry rock.These ruins overlap Crateria and Chozodia, with segments included in both areas. Chozo Ruins - An area of desolate temple ruins built by the Chozo long ago, now containing some of their artifacts left behind. ![]() The area is home to Phantoon, one of the Space Pirate leaders in Super Metroid. Segments of it are found in Chozodia in Zero Mission. Wrecked Ship - An ancient, flooded ship that crashed into Crateria long ago, now infested with ghosts.In Super Metroid, the ruins of the original Tourian are included as a part of this area. It is sometimes deluged by heavy acid rains. Crateria - The surface area of Zebes where Samus's Gunships landed, first in Metroid: Zero Mission and later in Super Metroid.Assuming they were not also destroyed by the explosion of Zebes, it is likely that they continued to orbit their sun within the former planet's debris field. The fates of the moons after the planet's destruction are unknown. The larger moon had a normal revolution, while the smaller moon had a retrograde orbit. Both moons also appear in Metroid Prime as holograms in the Observatory. It is shown in the Metroid Manga that Zebes had two moons, one very large in appearance from the surface and another that is smaller. Samus uses the phrase "Great Moons of Zebes!" in the early Captain N: The Game Master comics. However, it was later disabled by the Space Pirates with a micro black hole.Īstronomical holographic projector model, with moons. While they lived on the planet, the Chozo had constructed a Planetary Protection Shield to defend themselves from attack. There was also a Wrecked Ship that had landed in a pool on Crateria long ago, arriving with the first Chozo civilization on the planet. This rain would affect bioforms not able to adapt to the harsh atmosphere (Samus Aran being an exception). It was a bleak and rocky area that was constantly drenched by acid rain. The ground "liquified" in some areas and formed deadly quicksand traps leading deeper into the planet.Ĭrateria was the crust of Zebes. Labeled Maridia, the water from this realm spiraled in all directions, eating away at the land and creating huge and sometimes dangerously vast mazes of water. It is also possible that Brinstar plants use chemosynthesis.Īnother oddity lies in the existence of huge deposits of water just below the surface. It can be said that the plants only needed water, or that the majority were carnivorous as indicated by the foliage in Kraid's Lair. Brinstar was home to a dense forest, yet the vegetation did not seem to have anything to photosynthesize. A deep cavernous area in the planet known as Brinstar seemed to be the home of more than 60% of the planet's wildlife. Zebes had a vast network of underground caverns and labyrinths that led deep into the planet. Samus Aran's Starship approaching Zebes in Super Metroid. ![]()
