Character Sheet: Megaroid

MEGAROID


And now we have a long list of character who appear exclusively within the Metroid comics, manga, and other non-game media. These will all act as a roster on their own, separate from the standard game roster. They are:

1. Joey Apronika

2. Kreatz

3. Mauk

4. Diesel

5. GFS Tyr Crew

6. Armstrong Houston

7. Zegan Doh

8. Bomad

9. U-Ton

10. Papa Lightning

11. Chozo Elders

12. Greed

13. Bishop

14. Knight

15. Dangelo

16. Pirate Boss

17. Amokmaw

18. Integra

19. Megaroid

And finally, we come to Megaroid, the major boss of the first story arc of Samus & Joey. While investigating the Pirate activity on Planet Liberty, Samus and Joey both discover that their boss Dragud had been experimenting on a dead Metroid, trying to clone a powerful new breed that could be mind-controlled. They succeeded, but the creature ended up escaping before the mind-control aspect could be completed and killing the entire crew.

The creature could fly around and extend tentacles to drain the life force of anyone it touches. It could also grow out its crystal body in different directions as well. Finally, most terrifying, if it is shattered or broken in any way, the pieces will come alive as tiny spidery creatures that swarm the nearest energy source.

Here's the moveset I came up with:


Standard B: Life Drain

The Megaroid will shoot out a tentacle, stabbing it into another player and draining their life force.


Side B: Miniroid

The Megaroid will break off pieces of itself that will come to life as the little spider things and swarm the nearest opponent.


Up B: Float

It will rise up into the air in its crystalline egg form.


Down B: Crystal Thrust

It will jut out its crystals in all directions, striking its opponents hard.


Final Smash: Swarm

The Megaroid will shatter into a million tiny pieces, all of which will come to life and swarm everything on stage, taking it all down to zero.


Entrance: It will break free of its container.


Taunts: Up, it will rise and spin in its crystal form. Side, it will wiggle its tentacles and make a scary face. Down, it will shatter and form up again.


Kirby Hat: Its crystal head.


Kart: Based on its containment unit.

Special Move: It will break off pieces of itself that will then rush other players.


Spirit Battle: A giant battle, followed by a mini-horde battle, on Junk Quixote.


Victory Screen: Its miniroids will spread across the entire planet.

Losing Screen: A volcano will go off, blowing it to kingdom come.


Color Swaps: I imagine the crystals to be a sort of aqua color, so then we'll go green, blue, red, yellow, silvery, white, and ebony.


Thanks for reading! Now, let's cover pretty much everything else there is to cover in the Metroid series.
