Line 195:
{{quote|Debut: ''[[Metroid: Other M]]''}}
* {{spoiler|[[Never Found the Body]]: The Deleter disposed of it in a pool of lava. As a result, he is officially listed as "Missing in Action" in the post-credits character log}}.
** [[Fan Nickname]]: {{spoiler|Some people like to say that the K.G. in his name stands for "Killed Guy" for this very reason. Dying is all he really seems to accomplish.}}
* [[The Quiet One]]: He doesn't really ''seem'' like the type who doesn't talk much, but nevertheless he only gets about two short lines in the game.
* [[Translation Convention]]: For his name for some reason. In English speaking countries it was Flanderized to K.G. despite it being Keiji in Japan. Note that the two names are pronounced the same and that there was no reason for it considering that another [[Mass Effect 2|Keiji was in another game roughly around the same time.]]
* [[Token Minority]]: Not completely token due to Anthony, but the only squad member of Asian descent.
=== Fleet Admiral Castor Dane ===
Line 222:
* [[Ambiguous Gender]]: Sylux is never referred to by gender-specific pronouns, leading to the common [[Epileptic Trees|fan theory]] that Sylux [[Samus Is a Girl|is female]].
* [[The Blank]]: Like Weavel, his armor gives no indication of him having any sort of face. Whether he even ''has'' one is probably going to be left unsolved until gamers actually get a peek underneath his suit.
* [[Bounty Hunter]]: A notorious one specifically opposed to the Federation and Samus Aran by extension since they frequently hire her.
* [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]: The hunter, the shock coil, and the doors it opens are all blue.
* [[Cool Ship]]: The Delano 7.
Line 238:
* [[The Blank]]: Possibly. It's not entirely clear if that yellow section of his head where his face would be is a cybernetic face or just a visor. A fan theory is that he's a Ki-Hunter, which would make that yellow part his actual face if true.
* [[Bounty Hunter]]: What he has been reduced to. It is unknown whether he retains any loyalty to the space pirates or has simply decided to work for his own benefit.
* [[Color-Coded for Your Convenience]]: Weavel's suit has a mild green tint and the battle hammer is green.
* [[Cool Ship]]: Though it's not as prominent as the Delano 7, it can be seen in the intro movie, where Weavel is using it to evade the GF Police. It's also briefly seen on {{spoiler|the Oubliette}}.
Line 255:
[[File:Noxus 4264.jpg|frame]]
* [[Bounty Hunter]]: Though most of the industrial world considers bounty hunting to be a criminal activity, Noxus became a bounty hunter specifically to fight criminals and other forms of "evil". Times have really changed in the space age.
* [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]: From the hunter himself, to his ice weapon, to the doors that can be opened once Samus gets his weapon, his main color is purple.
* [[Everything's Better with Spinning]]: His alt. form has him curl up and spin like a top.
Line 272:
* [[Beware My Stinger Tail]]: His alternate form shoots explosive stingers.
* [[Bounty Hunter]]: Though, he does it less for the "bounty" part and more for the "hunter" part.
* [[The Brute]]: He is one of, if not the largest, bounty hunters, and has one of the least sympathetic goals.
* [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]: Though the hunter himself is green, his weapon, the Volt Driver, is yellow, as are the doors that Samus can open once she gets this weapon.
* [[Extra Eyes]]: He has four eyes in biped form and lots of markings that superficially look like eyes. The stinglarva appears to have seven eyes in official art, or rather six with one of those markings as a big eye spot.
* [[For the Evulz]]: The main reason he became a bounty hunter, and the reason why he is searching for the Ultimate Power of the Alimbics, is because it gives him a chance to fulfill his killing potential.
* [[Gone Horribly Wrong]]: He was originally a lab experiment to create a super-soldier, but he escaped.
Line 290:
[[File:Spire 9269.jpg|frame]]
* [[The Big Guy]]: He has a sympathetic goal, making him one of the more heroic bounty hunters when they eventually team up. He's also bigger than all, with the possible exception of Kanden.
* [[Bounty Hunter]]: To support his search for his kind, or find answers as to what happened to them.
* [[Collision Damage]]: The Dialanche, as seen in the intro. It has to be right when he transforms or at full speed, though, so you're better off using the attack button instead.
* [[Color-Coded for Your Convenience]]: From the hunter himself, to his magma weapon, to the doors that can be opened once Samus gets his weapon, his main color is orange.
Line 298:
* [[Magma Man]]: In fact, according to his scans, his body contains "molten ferrous compounds normally found only in ''a planet's core''." His weapon of choice shoots lava grenades, and charged shots light things on fire, doing more damage when he uses it. He can also move through lava without taking damage.
* [[Shout-Out]]: Spire seems very similar to [[The Legend of Zelda|Gorons]], in that both are rock-based creatures that role up into boulder-like balls.
* [[Silicon-Based Life]]: Which probably explains why he is at home in molten environments, one theory is that such creatures would have to live in incredibly hot environments or else move extremely slow.
* [[Wall Crawl]]:
=== Trace ===
Line 308:
* [[Exclusively Evil]]: His race, the Kriken, thrives off of being this, almost to the extent of putting the [[Space Pirates]] to shame.
* [[Bio Augmentation]]: The Triskeleton is the result of this.
* [[Bounty Hunter]]: He entered this field of work in hopes he would find suitable worlds for his kin to conquer, which makes you wonder how he ever gets work. That or technology that would revolutionize his empire.
* [[Cold Sniper]]: His weapon, the Imperialist, is a red laser that actually has a sniping scope of sorts. As such, it has the longest range of any of the hunters' weapons.
* [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]: From the hunter himself, to his sniper weapon, to the doors that can be opened once Samus gets his weapon, his main color is red.
Line 328:
* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: With only ''seconds'' to spare, Rundas [[Catch a Falling Star|saves]] Samus from reaching the reactor of an energy shaft after she just dueled Ridley in a free-fall battle. This was his [[Establishing Character Moment]], and part of what made him so endearing to the fandom.
* [[Bond One-Liner]]:Gives one after shooting down two flying transports.
* [[Bounty Hunter]]: Believes himself to be the best in this field, the scan visor says his threat level matches Aran's.
* {{spoiler|[[Brainwashed and Crazy]]: Emphasis on the crazy. You can tell Rundas is really not himself when Samus is sent to see why contact was lost with him}}.
* {{spoiler|[[Deadly Upgrade]]: The P.E.D. makes some of his attacks almost impossible to dodge.}}
* [[Destructible Projectiles]]: He can stop certain shots with his powers, but given their nature, certain shots can stop his powers.
Line 337:
* [[I Work Alone]]: According to Federation reports, this was his attitude before he met Samus (who he seems to bond with); it explains some of his actions on Bryyo too.
* [[An Ice Person]]: He can generate ice and control the movement of the ice he creates.
** [[Hand Blast]]: They have the same sound effect as the Prime ice beam.
* [[Impaled with Extreme Prejudice]]: He kills at least one enemy this way {{spoiler|and himself.}}
* [[Irony]]: When he is attempting to halt the argument, he mentions that they are the good guys, justice will prevail, and all that stuff. Guess what happens to each of the Hunters barring Samus a few weeks to a month later?
Line 359:
* [[Arm Cannon]][[Guns Akimbo|s Akimbo]]: Two in his armor in addition to a [[Chest Blaster]]
** [[Beam Spam]]: When desperate, he uses his smart bombs, missile salvos and plasma beams all at once
* [[The Big Guy]]: With his suit; outside of it, Rundas is larger than him.
* [[Blade Below the Shoulder]]: Power armor has two.
* [[Bounty Hunter]]: Though Ghor is just as likely to be called for tech support. That goes a long way in explaining how he can afford to be so charitable with his bounty money...
* {{spoiler|[[Brainwashed and Crazy]]: He was sent to save the Elysians from this fate, but succumbed to it as well}}.
* [[Cool Ship]]: His suit ''is'' his ship.
* [[Cybernetics Eat Your Soul]]: Subverted in that he is a really nice person, but played straight with his murder frenzy in his battle suit.
Line 370:
* [[Good Counterpart]]: Ghor is a federation fighter who after being rebuilt resembles the space pirates(at least the ones in Prime 3). Compare to Weavel, a space pirate, who after being rebuilt resembles a federation marine.
* [[Grappling Hook Gun]]: Strictly offensive; he doesn't need to building swing since his suit flies.
* [[Macross Missile Massacre]]: From his armour suit's shoulders.
* [[Malevolent Mugshot]]: His level of malevolence is questionable, but his face was temporarily all over Sky Town.
* [[Mega Manning]]: {{spoiler|Samus gets a plasma beam from Ghor}}.
Line 380:
* [[Shout-Out]]: His backstory, with him having to replace his body with a cybernetic one that alters his personality, seems inspired by [[Revenge of the Sith|General Grievous]], except that Ghor isn't a villain. {{spoiler|Not initially, at least}}.
* [[The Smart Guy]]: Without his suit. Despite bounty hunting being his preferred profession, he's often asked to crack or control computer systems.
* [[Spin Attack]]: Both with his "attack claws" and sweeping around with his chest blaster.
* [[Super Mode]]: After getting two P.E.D. icons, the other one might be for his larger armour.
* [[Unskilled but Strong]]: He logically assesses his situation and strikes with state of the art weaponry, but is still lacking in pure combat skill according to federation reports on him.
Line 392:
[[File:Gandrayda 6494.gif|frame]]
* [[Bounty Hunter]]: Aspires to be the best.
* {{spoiler|[[Brainwashed and Crazy]]: Which leads her to try and take Samus's helmet as a grisly trophy}}.
* {{spoiler|[[Deadly Upgrade]]: The P.E.D. greatly enhances her amounts of [[Shapeshifter Baggage]] and stealth}}
* [[Elemental Punch]]: Strikes the ground when she wants space.
Line 404:
* [[Invisibility]]:She has a personal cloaking field
* {{spoiler|[[Laughing Mad]]: Just prior to fighting Samus, after she nearly shot Samus while her back was turned. And a more insane laughter toward the end of her [[Shapeshifter Swan Song]], too.}}
* [[Life Drain]]: Can be reversed for an [[Overclocking Attack]].
** [[Not What It Looks Like]]: It shouldn't look like anything but assault with intent to kill. Fandom being what it is however...
* [[Man Child]]: According to scans, her psyche has "a high degree of youthfulness."
Line 411 ⟶ 410:
* [[Green-Skinned Space Babe|Purple Skinned Space Babe]]: Or pink. Whichever you [[Fetish Fuel|prefer.]]
* [[The Rival]]: She really wanted to prove herself a better bounty hunter than Samus, who in turn [[Unknown Rival|didn't even know who Gandrayda was]] until Metroid Prime 3.
* {{spoiler|[[Shapeshifter Swan Song]]: Including both Rundas and Ghor, and most hauntingly, Samus herself}}.
* [[Shock and Awe]]: [[Morphic Resonance|It is her tell]].
* [[Super Mode]]: When she receives a P.E.D. vest.
* [[Voluntary Shapeshifting]]: She can fake Phazon corruption and even turn into things larger than herself. Conservation of mass what? The other characters in the game don't understand it either.
