Blood of the Chozo was an interactive online story run by Nintendo Power Source that ran for three and a half months before ending. It was subsequently summarized in four pages of Nintendo Power issue 84.
A base story was provided to the online writers. It occured a few years after Mother Brain's defeat (presumably the recent Super Metroid) and invovled an invasion by the "True Chozo", a branch of the species that split off and broke off contact with sentient species, in the Messina star system. This invasion was predicted by the Overdog, who helped organize a rebellion. The writers (responsible for over 6,000 posts throughout the story) were asked to create their own "True Chozo" character and write stories within the established framework, with writers loaning characters to each other and expanding on plot points occasionally provided by Nintendo. The character had to be from one of five guilds: bounty hunters, engineers, merchants, marshals, and trogs.
Continuity
"When Samus was just six years old, pirates attacked and destroyed the human settlement. Captain Thea Aran and Chief Engineer Avram Aran were both killed in the raid. Solomon Aran, Samus's four year old brother, was missing and presumed dead. Samus was rescued by the Chozo, a bird-like race from the neighboring planet Zebes. She was raised on Zebes by an old Chozo priest, but she eventually left to make her fortune among the stars. At 16 years old, Samus became the youngest Apprentice ever admitted into the ranks of the Bounty Hunter's Guild."
Samus is now known to have been 3 at the time of the K-2L attack (according to Metroid (manga), and her parents are now named differently (though it is not explicitly stated that those Arans are her parents or which "human settlement" the Arans were at).
