'''Leviathans''', or '''Leviathan Seeds''' and dubbed '''Worms'' by the [[Chozo]], are large, sentient asteroids originating from the planet [[Phaaze]]. The Leviathans are made of large concentrations of [[Phazon]]. When they impact a planet, Phazon is introduced to the ecosystem, mutating inhabiting creatures with the effects of Phazon. The sole purpose of the Leviathans is to initiate the spread of Phazon throughout targeted planets and convert them into clones of Phaaze. Every planet encountered in the [[Metroid Prime (series)|''Metroid Prime'' (series)]] (with the exception of those encountered in ''[[Metroid Prime Hunters|Hunters]]'') is attacked by a Leviathan.

The [[Galactic Federation]] becomes aware of Leviathans in the ''Corruption'' planets and sends three bounty hunters to destroy the seeds. [[Dark Samus]] manages to corrupt and control these bounty hunters: [[Rundas]], [[Ghor]], and [[Gandrayda]]. She then assigns them to defend the Leviathans on [[Bryyo]], [[Elysia]], and the [[Pirate Homeworld]], respectively, from Samus. Dark Samus even manages to corrupt an Aurora Unit, [[Aurora Unit 313|AU 313]], to protect the planet Phaaze. Dark Samus and the [[Space Pirate]]s seek to harvest the Phazon-spewing Leviathans for their corruptive and destructive power (ironically, Leviathans are their undoing, as Samus uses one to reach the planet). All known Leviathan seeds, however, are destroyed by Samus, along with their parent planet Phaaze.
