Samus Aran

Samus Aran is a video game character created by Nintendo, and is the main protagonist in the Metroid series. She is a bounty hunter who wears an extensible body suit with a number of advanced technologies built into it. The original Metroid intentionally led players to believe she was male until the very end of the game, making a statement about gender roles in video games at a time when heroes were predominately male. Although Samus wears a full-body power suit throughout most of the Metroid series, it has become tradition to depict her in more revealing attire at the end of each game, often as a reward for completing the game quickly or with a high percentage of the game's items collected.
