The Ice Geemer is a subspecies of the Geemer in Metroid Prime: Federation Force.
Description[]
Much like the Tallon IV breed, Ice Geemers have three eyes and six legs. They are non-aggressive, typically wandering around in circles without displaying interest in other organisms.
The Ice Geemer has adapted to the frigid climate of the planet Excelcion. Instead of the signature spiny carapace, the Ice Geemer's body is covered by a thick, spiky layer of ice crystals, in a similar manner to that of Crystallite and the Ice Beetle. However, this shell does not protect them from Missiles or Charge Shots and will shatter on impact, exposing the Ice Geemer's vulnerable body.
While Geemers are normally small creatures, Ice Geemers are much larger than most of their brethren, and are comparable in size to Federation Force's Mechs. It is unknown if they are naturally this size, or if they have been artificially enlarged by Space Pirates using the amplification beam.
Trivia[]
- A second subspecies of Geemer known as Snomers also thrive in arctic conditions, namely the artificial Sector 2 / Cryosphere on the BOTTLE SHIP and appear in Metroid: Other M.
- In the Federation Force Treehouse prerelease footage of M04: Containment, Ice Geemers are simply called Geemers.[1]
