Kraid is one of the major antagonists from the ''Metroid'' series, making his debut in [[Metroid (game)|the first game]] alongside [[Ridley]] and [[Mother Brain]]. In his original appearance, Kraid was depicted as a humanoid rhinoceros-like creature, although ''[[Super Metroid]]'' redesigned him as an enormous reptilian creature, which was retroactively featured in the first game's GBA remake ''Metroid: Zero Mission''. | Kraid is one of the major antagonists from the ''Metroid'' series, making his debut in [[Metroid (game)|the first game]] alongside [[Ridley]] and [[Mother Brain]].

In ''Metroid'' and ''Zero Mission'', Kraid is one of two Space Pirate bosses who must be hunted down and defeated by [[Samus Aran]] in order to access Tourian, the final area where Mother Brain and the eponymous {{b|Metroid|creature}}s are located. Kraid's lair is located in the depths of Brinstar, and is also home to a false Kraid that is much weaker than the real boss.

Kraid's lair is located in the depths of Brinstar, and is also home to a false Kraid that is much weaker than the real boss. Unlike ''Super Smash Bros.'', Kraid is never fought in an area with [[lava]], although he is fought in a room with pools of acid on either side of his platform in ''Metroid''. In ''Zero Mission'', defeating Kraid allows Samus to find the Speed Booster. Kraid also appears in the ''Monthly Magazine Z''-published ''Metroid'' manga, based on his role in ''Zero Mission''. | ||
In ''Super Metroid'', Kraid plays a similar role as before, now one of four Space Pirate bosses who must be defeated in order to access Tourian. Kraid can be found in a new Space Pirate base in lower Brinstar, where his chamber is guarded by [[Kihunter]]s, Zebesians, and Mini-Kraid. Kraid rises from a thicket of brambles and thorns to challenge Samus, attacking with his claws and stomach spikes. Upon his demise, Kraid sinks into the ground, clearing the way for Samus to find the Varia Suit. | In ''Super Metroid'', Kraid plays a similar role as before, now one of four Space Pirate bosses who must be defeated in order to access Tourian.

Similar to ''Smash Bros.'', he is fought in an area with lava, and he is restrained in the back of the room. His means of attack remains same as in previous series, with the addition of new attacks such as fireball and purple poison attack coming out of his stomach. Upon defeat, Kraid breaks free from his restraint but immediately sinks into a pool of lava, making the way for Samus to find the Diffusion Beam. At the end of ''Metroid Dread'', an X-parasite merges with Raven Beak and becomes a Kraid-Raven Beak hybrid before getting annihilated by Samus. | ||
Kraid was planned to appear in ''Metroid Prime'' as a boss wearing a metallic helmet to protect his vulnerable head, although this was scrapped due to time restraints. Outside of the ''Metroid'' series, Kraid has also appeared as a towering robot animatronic in the "Metroid Blast" attraction of ''Nintendo Land'' | Kraid was planned to appear in ''Metroid Prime'' as a boss wearing a metallic helmet to protect his vulnerable head, although this was scrapped due to time restraints.

''A boss enemy from Metroid. Kraid lives in the depths of Brinstar. He immobilizes enemies with his three red eyes, and his powerful jaws can crush anything. He can also shoot the three spikes in his belly; it's said he often fires them at his prey. Once Samus defeated Ridley and Kraid, the way to Tourian opened.'' | |||
