Samus is the sole survivor of a Space Pirate raid on an Earth colony of a planet called K-2L. Her biological family was killed during this raid when she was a young girl. It is rumored that her father did work for the Galactic Federation, but any information on her mother remains a mystery.

After the Space Pirate raid, Samus was found by an ancient and highly advanced race of bird-like creatures called the Chozo. They "adopted" her and taught her everything she knows about survival. Though the Chozo were a peace loving species, and Samus's species seemed to love a good fight, somehow the Chozo were able to educate the young girl in the art of war, and in the end, they learned much from each other.

They infused Samus with their blood, giving her a very high metabolism, and they also gave her cybernetic enhancements, as well as the suit she wears during battle which gives her superhuman like abilities. Though her suit is the biggest key to her success, without it she is still far from weak.
