(Required listening for this post)This is Jeff with character number 3: Meta-Ridley from the
Metroid series! If I had to describe him...okay. Imagine if dragons decided that being the most awesome creature physically possible on Earth wasn't cool enough, so they went to space. That's Ridley. He's a space dragon. And
then, imagine, if one of these space dragons went "Fuck it. This scenario still isn't metal enough," and went and made it with a Predator.
That's Meta-Ridley. A robotic space dragon. He is a commander of the Space Pirates, who are pretty much exactly what the name suggests: bloodthirsty marauders who basically just want to kill, conquer and pillage everything in space. So he's a pirate robot space dragon. You can't make this stuff up, folks. As you may guess, Ridley isn't a very pleasant individual. The only thing he likes more than killing things is killing and eating them. Just ask Samus about that.
I'm going to be pulling him from past
Metroid: Other M, where he doesn't really show up for a couple games anyway, and Samus is busy screwing around with the Federation and lame-o clones of him. There's some very minor AUing in place that basically just states "he had his cybernetic implants during
Super Metroid", and doesn't really change much of anything about the character, except that he still has his badass cybernetic implants.
If you have any questions about the character, feel free to ask here! His app is
here, and a permissions post for one of his abilities (which you should definitely check out if you play any organic nonhuman characters) is right
here. As always, if you need to contact me, you can reach me at my AIM (Viewtiful Rekk), or my plurk,
ViewtifulJeff.
