Tallon IvTallon IV is the fictional planet on which the video game Metroid Prime is set. It also makes a small cameo appearance in as a part of a multiplayer stage's background. The Chozo founded a colony here to live a more natural and less technological life. According to the North American version of Metroid Prime, the Chozo colonists eventually left the planet and their bodies behind. However, a meteorite stuck the planet in the future and brought with it a radioactive substance called Phazon. This infected the local wildlife and corrupted them, also calling the wandering Chozo spirits back to Tallon IV. According to the European version of Metroid Prime, the Chozo never changed into incorporeal beings and were on Tallon IV the whole time, even when the meteorite struck the planet. The Chozo never meet the Space Pirates. The areas of Tallon IV as seen in Metroid Prime are as follows: Tallon Overworld- Grassy area, the 'Hub' of the game. Contains the Space pirates crashed space vessel, as well as the Chozo Artifact temple, the gate to the Impact Crater, and Samus' ship. Chozo Ruins- The Chozo home that has fallen apart since the departure of the Chozo. Magmoor Caverns- Reminiscent of Norfair from the original Metroid and Super Metroid, these caves contain magma and are home to 'Magmoor' creatures that attack Samus with fire. Phendrana Drifts- Icy area of Tallon IV, also containing a large Space Pirate base. Phazon Mines- The Space Pirates mine Phazon here. The Mine is filled with Pirates and their drones. Impact Crater- The home of Metroid Prime (Whom the Chozo call 'The Worm'). The final boss fight happens here. The Space Pirates discovered Tallon IV and with it, Phazon. They planned to use the Phazon to further their society militarily and technologically. However, they were stopped when bounty hunter Samus Aran destroyed Metroid Prime, the creature that created the Phazon.
