Samus is covered completely from neck to toe in a form fitting blue suit with a pink sensory array on her back. Her long blonde hair is tied back into a ponytail with a red band. Although quicker and more agile without her suit, she is also less heavily armed, forced to resort to her [[paralyzer|small emergency pistol]] (which can transform into a plasma whip) to defend herself.
Samus is covered completely from neck to toe in a form fitting blue suit with a pink [[metroidwiki:Chozo|Chozo]] markings on her back and chest. Her long blonde hair is tied back into a ponytail with a red band. Although quicker and more agile without her suit, she is also less heavily armed, forced to resort to her short-ranged [[paralyzer|emergency pistol]] to defend herself. This Paralyzer also has whip-like abilities, known as the [[Plasma Whip]] and [[Plasma Wire]].


Zero Suit Samus first appeared in ''Metroid: Zero Mission'', a remake of the original ''Metroid'' for Game Boy Advance. Following the "normal finale" following Samus' defeat of [[Mother Brain]], Samus escapes the base on Planet Zebes.  A cutscene immediately follows which shows her shedding her Power Suit in order to fly her original Gunship. However, Space Pirate ships shoot her down back onto Zebes. Stranded and without her power suit, Samus must infiltrate a nearby Space Pirate compound and sneak her way into an area where an ancient Chozo test will allow the Power Suit to rematerialize onto her.

Zero Suit Samus makes another playable appearance during the timed escape sequence at the end of ''Metroid: Other M''.
Zero Suit Samus appears very briefly in ''Metroid Prime 3: Corruption'' in an ending sequence. She deactivates her PED Suit as she walks toward her gunship, revealing her Zero Suit. There is a brief moment where she looks toward the camera.
 
Samus also appears in her Zero Suit in early scenes of ''Metroid: Other M''. She also appears in the dying sequence, that is whenever Samus dies her suit disappears revealing her Zero Suit. Samus appears without her Power Suit also in cut scenes during her battle against Ridley. She makes her third playable appearance during the timed escape sequence at the end of ''Metroid: Other M'', where she must escape a ship about to be destroyed. She is also equipped with the Paralyzer here.

''It's said that the orphaned Samus Aran was raised by the few survivors of the Chozo race. They armed her with a Power Suit and taught her the ways of advanced combat; even burdened with her heavy suit, Samus is as graceful as a butterfly. In the Metroid series, it was standard that Samus would remove her helmet and armor if you cleared the game fast enough.''

Oddly enough, the trophy depicts Zero Suit Samus as a brunette while in ''Metroid: Zero Mission'', she has blond hair.
