Honestly, just go the full 9 lives and become a cat.

Maybe you have some kind of genetic drug resistance. My mom has an extremely high resistance to anesthetics (it's been a major problem when docs don't believe her) and apparently most people in my family do too.

Actual models vary pretty wildly by game (out of suit for Other M has her quite short compared to other people), but I believe the only official height and weight comes from the Super Metroid player's guide (and more vaguely in the Metroid 2 manual), which says she's 6'3" (190 cm) and weighs 198 pounds (90 kg) without the suit.

I know this is coming off as tooting my own horn, but the reality is that I'm just very excited about it, because it was a big part of my younger years.

This is a very cool compliment to see, as someone who regularly tried to hit the sub 1 hour clear mark for Super Metroid.

My absolute favorite thing about the morphball is that even in canon it's a total mindfuck that makes no sense. Very light lore spoilers for Metroid Prime 1:

spoilerThere's a couple of research scans that essentially describe Space Pirate reverse engineering of Samus' morphball tech that basically say "This morphball shit is a lost cause. All our test crew have ended up as extremely dead pretzels. We should just quit while we're behind on this one."

"Oh you're a Van Canto fan? What are the lyrics to any of their instruments?"

On a serious note, thanks for reminding me about Van Canto. Such great tunes!

lol I'm not describing myself here, I'm just a fish with no meat.

It's just been (oddly, I think) a recurring thing that multiple friends have done at ren faires (and costume parties). I know at least 3 people who have done the concealed boob sword thing, and plenty of extras who opted for bottles of hard alcohol instead.

Big dresses and a lotta cleavage means you got no idea who's got a concealed sword at a ren faire.

Low hanging fruit and all, but

Damn gay they are!

The takeaway from this is that half of all monks may or may not have duck telepathy, yes?
