== History ==
In addition to his ability to possess mortals, which made the bodies in question look significantly aged, Samus had enhanced strength, enough to crack open [[power armour]] with a directed strike. Samus was also able to interrupt and even wash out vox-channels of the Imperial forces with an unnerving, repeated chant:
''"Samus. That's the only name you'll hear. Samus. It means the end and the death. Samus. I am Samus. Samus is all around you. Samus is the man beside you. Samus will gnaw on your bones. Look out! Samus is here."''
This was thought to be rebel propaganda broadcast over the communications network, even though there were reports of individuals without personal [[Vox-caster|vox-sets]] hearing the voice of Samus as ghostly whispers. While the death of his mortal host incapacitated him for a time, he was eventually able to animate and change the body, taking on a gross, distorted aspect that featured a dog-like head, hunched posture and long claws. ==Images==<center><gallery>Image:Samus-6.jpg|Samus during the Battle of Calth{{Fn|4}}</gallery></center>
