A Viola is a creature that appears in Ridley's Lair in Metroid, Metroid: Zero Mission and in Super Metroid.

Description[]

A Viola resembles a living fireball with what appears to be a sneering or grimacing facial expression. They can be blue or orange in color, with the latter being stronger than the former; in Super Metroid, only blue Violas appear. Normal ones have the same wall-crawling behavior as several other lifeforms.

Violas are the larvae of Multiviolas, a more powerful enemy found throughout Norfair. With the exception of Super Metroid, Violas are only found in Ridley's Lair, suggesting these younger specimens may be safer in the lower depths of Norfair.

In Zero Mission, blue and orange Violas have 12 and 20 HP and take away 16 and 30 energy units away from the Power Suit when touched, respectively.
