The Parasite Queen is the first boss of Metroid Prime, found in the Reactor Core of Frigate Orpheon. It is a Parasite mutated through Space Pirate experimentation. When Samus Aran enters the Reactor Core, the Parasite Queen appears inside a blue, seemingly impenetrable barrier.
Boss
The Parasite Queen boss battle, like many early battles, is a relatively easy, one-stage battle. To defeat the Parasite Queen, Samus must shoot the Power Beam or Missiles at it while an open section of its shield is revealed. To attack, the Parasite queen launches acid from fluid sacs[1] located around its mouth.
Specimens
The Parasite Queen is not one of a kind. It is one of three known specimens, all found on Frigate Orpheon. The other two, however, are dead. Parasite Queens come about as the result of unknown methods of mutating a Parasite with Phazon, corrupting the creature.
