Samus Aran [OU] and King DeDeDe [AU1]

Your Nickname: Kat
Character's Name: Samus Aran (Metroid)
Exchanging With: King DeDeDe (There Will Be Brawl)

Normal Memories:
-Old Bird, her father, and spending time training with him
-Her home on Zebes, and the whole layout of the planet
-Her brief time with the Federation Police doing missions and often acting rebellious during reconnaissance missions
-Showing off her skills while being considered for recruitment in a special division of the Federation's military
-Adam Malkovich as her old commanding officer
-Lots and lots of alone time while patroling in space in her ship
-Appreciation for the beautiful Chozo architecture of both Tallon IV and Skytown, Elysia

Traumatic/Important Memories:

-The raid on her home planet, K-2L, by space pirates and the death her mother by the hands of Ridley, and both the trauma and sheer anger over being the only survivor of the attack

-The moment she decides to leave the Federation: one of her comrades in her squad gets left behind on an enemy ship set to self-destruct. Samus insists that they go back and retrieve him, but her CO refuses to risk a suicide mission, and orders her to stay behind. Samus disobeys orders and retrieves her comrade on her own, saving his life with barely enough time to spare, and ushering the both of them onto her own ship (as their squad had already left both of them behind). While deeming her CO's choice perhaps correct, the restrictive nature of the military and the fact that she can get the impossible done on her own gives her cause to leave and do freelance work.

-Each encounter facing and killing Ridley in vengeance (Metroid, Metroid Prime 1, and Metroid Prime 3), noticing that each time he comes back he keeps getting stronger and just won't stay dead

-Her fight with Rundas, who had gone completely mad and wild, practically turned into a wild animal from the Phazon corrupting his mind, and her fight with Ghor, who was noticeably in a less advanced stage of Phazon corruption, though completely insane nonetheless. Also the fact that she'd been forced to kill both of them, with no way of saving their lives.

Character Quirks: Generally Samus tries to put on a tough, lone wolf kind of act, and is much more blunt and even technical with her speech. She tends to use military jargon in conversation, such as 'affirmative' or 'negative' instead of yes or no. She also has a strange hobby of logging away information about interesting things and people around her.
Mundane Skills:
-Knowing the Galactic Federation's salute
-Knowing a few basic phrases in the Chozo language (like hi, bye, thank you)
Unique Skills:
-Ability to fly her ship
-Some acrobatic abilities
