#alpha metroid

The metroids take their designs from a mix of the original source material metroids and the different stages of Chaos; Chaos is still a separate thing, but served as one of the inspirations for the Echidna and Chozo when creating them. To be specific, the Larval Metroids and the "Super" Metroid take inspiration from Chaos 0 (though the "Super" one has Chaos 6's eyes). Alpha and Gamma have elements of Chaos 2. The Zeta and Omega metroids have elements of Chaos 6. And the Metroid Queen is modeled more closely off of the Sonic Generations design for Perfect Chaos, with elements from Chaos 6 as well! Power wise, they're rather similar to the Source Material. They drain energy and consume X-Parasites. The stronger ones do have limited amounts of Hydrokinesis as well to mirror the original Chaos, but none of them have anywhere near as much control over water in comparison, aside from maybe the Queen. A larval metroid at most miiiight be able to slap you with its own water tentacle, but nothing more.
