Torvus Bog
From Wikitroid, the Metroid wiki
Torvus Bog is a semi-industrialized wetland area found on the planet Aether. It is the result of an ocean flooding Torvus Forest, due to the cataclysmic Phazon Meteor impact that ravaged the planet decades ago. Torvus Bog is home to many aquatic and reptilian animals, among them the Chykka. Its Dark Aether counterpart is Dark Torvus.
It has an upper and a lower area. The upper area is mostly what remains of the forest, while the lower areas are completely flooded industrial area.
The indigenous creatures of Torvus Bog include the Blogg and their offspring; Blogglings, Alpha Bloggs, Hydling, Krocuss, Sporb, Brizgee, Preed (probably sent there by Space Pirates) and Grenchlers.

[edit] Region Characteristics
The most notable characteristic of the Torvus Bog is its division in two main areas, the upper swamp and the lower industrial sector. Access to the Bog is only possible through the swamp area.
[edit] The Bog
The Torvus Bog offers a modified environment, though not as the extent of the lower sections. The water floods places that were in the past pathways, and there are even submerged doors. The region itself seemed to perfectly adapt to its new swamp state, but it is impossible to know how long the region has been exposed to the waters, making it difficult to understand the evolution of the flora and fauna. It is a rainy environment, a fact that help us understand the lasting of the floods.
A region of important Luminoth activity in the past, the metal structures scattered through the region lead to speculation of a probable use of the zone for the acquiring of nourishment or a less probable possibility of ore extraction.

[edit] Trivia
- The word 'Torvus' in latin means 'Fierce'. So really the name of this area is 'Fierce Bog'.
- The music of the lower area of Torvus Bog is a remix of Red Brinstar from Super Metroid.
