Emperor Ing

The Emperor Ing is the leader of the Ing Horde, and the main antagonist of Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. It is the oldest and strongest of its species.

History
When a Leviathan from the planet Phaaze impacted Aether, the devastation of the impact created a trans-dimensional duplicate of Aether called Dark Aether, due to the planet's unstable nature, and the Ing Horde was born. The Emperor Ing was the first of its species to be born, and has since resided in the Sky Temple, where it commands its forces.
