Major Supporting Characters

General Pepper

"We need your help, Star Fox!"

Voices (Japanese): Daisuke Gōri (Star Fox 64)
Michihiro Ikemizu (Star Fox: Assault)
Tsuguo Mogami (Star Fox 64 3D, Star Fox Zero)

Voices (English): Dan Owsen (Star Fox)
David Frederick White (Star Fox 64, Star Fox 64 3D, Star Fox Zero)
John Silke (Star Fox Adventures)
Gray Eubank (Star Fox Assault)

The peacekeeping Cornerian commander-in-chief in almost every Star Fox game. He contacts the team before each mission. When he retired in Command, Peppy Hare took his place.

---

• Big Good: General Pepper is the highest-ranking Cornerian we've ever heard about. He's also the one who tells Fox and Co. what to do.
• Big "WHAT?!": In 64 and Zero, if the player racks up a really high score, it's basically showing he's gotten hit with a Shockingly Expensive Bill.
• Cool Old Guy:
• Cool Shades: He always wore a pair of these before Star Fox 64 changed his design.
• A Father to His Men: This is implied by his Trophy description in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
• Fighting Your Friend: You fight him as a boss in the seventh stage in Star Fox: Assault. The actual reason that Pepper is fighting his friends is that he's taken over by the aparoids in Star Fox Assault, and they force him to fight Fox against his will.
• I Cannot Self-Terminate: In Star Fox: Assault, he requests that Fox kill him before the aparoids take him over completely. Fortunately, when Fox destroys his flagship, Pepper makes it out wounded but alive.
• Only One Name: General Pepper's first name is unknown.
• Put on a Bus: He becomes ill by the time of Star Fox Command and retires.
• Race Lift: He seems to be based on a basset hound, but in Star Fox Zero he appears to have changed breeds, possibly in an attempt to make him look cuddlier.
• Shout-Out or Parental Bonus: His name and uniform come straight from Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. The origin of his name even gets a Lampshade Hanging in the Nintendo Power comic.
• Sigil Spam: Posters with his face on them are everywhere in 64.
• Trademark Favorite Food: In the canonical comic tie-in to Star Fox, he was shown to have an affinity for lollipops.

James McCloud

"Never give up. Trust your instincts."

Voices (Japanese): Tomohisa Aso (Star Fox 64)
Hirohiko Kakegawa (Star Fox: Assault)

Voices (English): Mike West (Star Fox 64, Star Fox 64 3D, Star Fox Zero)
Jim Walker (Star Fox Assault)

Fox's father and the best pilot in the Lylat Star System. One day, while flying an important mission for Corneria, he was set up by Andross and killed. Or was he? Whether or not he was depends on the continuity.

---

• Ace Pilot: He was the best pilot in the Lylat system.
• Adaptation Name Change: In the first timeline, the name of Fox's father was given as Fox McCloud Sr. in the official comic tie-in.
• Cool Shades: Starting in Star Fox 64, these were added to separate him from his son, who basically has the same face (their fur are slightly different colors as well). The James McCloud of the F-Zero universe inherits these.
• Divergent Character Evolution: Not content with just being Fox wearing sunglasses, he's now Fox wearing sunglasses and a yellow scarf in Command! Interestingly, the shade of his fur has also changed. He usually has a darker shade of fur than Fox, whereas his appearance in Command shows him with a lighter shade of fur. He also has a Ear Notch on his left ear◊ in his appearance as a trophy in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS.
• Early-Bird Cameo: While James is mentioned in the original Star Fox, the closest thing to a cameo he has in the original game is an arwing lifelessly drifting in the Black Hole stage, which many speculated to be James...
• Ear Notch: He is seen with one only in Star Fox 64/Star Fox 64 DS and only when he appears at the end of the game; his ear is visibly fine in flashbacks in the same game.
• 11th-Hour Ranger: In the “Dash Makes A Choice” ending of Command, he suddenly appears to join Fox’s team on the fifth turn of the final map. (It’s actually possible to finish the map before even reaching the fifth turn, in which case he appears just in time to take on the Final Boss)
• Heroic Sacrifice: According to the intro to Zero, he sacrificed himself so that Peppy could escape. He sacrifices himself again so Fox can escape Andross.
• Last Request: He apparently entrusted Peppy with keeping watch over his son as if he were a second father.
• Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: Was that a ghost that guided Fox out of Venom, or was Fox just seeing things? In Star Fox Zero, things are further complicated when Andross also acknowledges James' prescence, claiming that James was indeed dead.
• Never Found the Body: In the games. In the early comics, he rides a transdimensional ship that looks like a Space Whale!
• Secret Character: In Command.
• Space Whale: In the comic, this is actually an inter-dimensional starship that saved Fox Senior from certain death. After his son frees the space stingrays in Sector Y from Andross' mind control, the Space Whale appears and gives the arwings some much needed fuel canisters. The whale also appears in Sector Y of the original Star Fox if all lifeforms are protected: it gives Fox a very large amount of powerups.
• Spirit Advisor: In the rebooted timeline starting with Star Fox 64, there is every indication that James is dead. Even so, he occasionally gives his son a pep-talk and/or other assistance from beyond the grave as either a disembodied voice or a ghost.
  "Don't ever give up, my son."
• Strong Family Resemblance: James wears sunglasses, and Fox doesn't. Aside from that, they are practically identical.
• Sunglasses at Night: James is never seen without sunglasses in the games.
• Wham Line:
  • In Star Fox Zero:
  Andross: Curse you, James McCloud! Why won't you stay dead?

ROB/NUS64

"Message from General Pepper. Priority one."

Voices (Japanese): Daisuke Sakaguchi (Star Fox 64)
Yusuke Numata (Star Fox: Assault, Super Smash Bros. for 3DS/Wii U)
Atsushi Abe (Star Fox 64 3D, Star Fox Zero: The Battle Begins, and Star Fox Zero)

Voices (English): David Frederick White (Star Fox 64, Star Fox 64 3D, and Star Fox Zero)
John Silke (Star Fox Adventures)
Dex Manley (Star Fox Assault, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U)

The observation and analysis robot assigned to the Great Fox, a dreadnaught-class battleship serving as the team's base of operations. He is first seen in 64, where he pilots the ship. In Assault, he acts as Peppy's assistant and beams down vehicles from the Great Fox to the ground level. He is the only character in Command that is present in every mission.

---

• Artifact Title: The "64" in his name tended to get dropped as the series went on, though it still showed up on occasion.
• Characterisation Marches On: In the post-64 games. ROB started the series off with fairly mechanical and to-the-point dialogue. Adventures gives him a bit more of a personality, including bemoaning the maintenance of his body and expressing legitimate concern for Fox when he detects Fox's temperature rising around Krystal. Assault doesn't give him much focus, but by the time of Command he has developed full-on sarcasm as a result of his new personality chip and even develops an apparent crush on Lucy Hare.
• Cloudcuckoolander: Some of his dialogue in Command as a result of his personality chip overriding his programming.
• Combat Medic: One of ROB's main roles is to repair the damaged Arwings. He can even repair Fox's ship on the fly if the Great Fox is on the field and you fly into its cargo bay. While ROB and the Great Fox don't fight very often, the results can be devastating when they do.
• Dub Name Change: Originally NUS64, though Farewell, Beloved Falco, and Adventures temporarily used "ROB" in Japan. The cast roll of Assault merges both and designates him as ROB/NUS64.
• Heroic Sacrifice: Subverted in Assault when he and Peppy crash the Great Fox to stop the Aparoids. ROB and Peppy use the Great Fox's emergency escape pod to get off the ship before it crashes.
• Interspecies Romance: During the events of Command, ROB seems to have a crush on Lucy, proclaiming his affections by stating that he would do anything for her before quickly telling her to ignore his last comment.
• Mission Control: Serves on the bridge of the Great Fox for each game, providing status updates to the team and indicating mission objectives.
• My Sensors Indicate You Want to Tap That: In the ending of Adventures.
  ROB: My sensors indicate Fox's temperature is rising.
  (Krystal smirks)
  ROB: Are you okay, Fox?
  (Everyone in the room minus Fox and ROB laugh)
  Fox: ...I'm gonna be just fine.
• Non-Action Guy: ROB and the Great Fox typically stay out of battle, focusing on repairing the team's damaged vehicles, receiving communications like messages from General Pepper or Slippy's distress signal and sending the team field supplies like bombs and health powerups. Averted during the battle in Area 6, where ROB and the Great Fox can join in the fight by providing cover fire.
• Ridiculously Human Robots: ROB becomes this more and more as time goes on, possibly due to his new personality chip.
• Robot Buddy: ROB has served with the team since the start of the 64 era and whilst it may be because of his programming, he does appear to have a sense of loyalty to the team.
• Shout-Out: ROB's name comes from the NES peripheral Robotic Operating Buddy, and the code name for the Nintendo 64, Nintendo Ultra Sixty-four.
• Unexpected Inheritance: Implied, as the Great Fox itself is James' memento to Fox.

Star Fox 64

Bill Grey

"Looks like you could use some help, Fox."

Voices (Japanese): Daisuke Sakaguchi (Star Fox 64)
Atsushi Abe (Star Fox 64 3D, Star Fox Zero'')

Voices (English): Jock Blaney (English, Star Fox 64)
Jaz Adams (English, Star Fox 64 3D, Star Fox Zero)

Fox's childhood friend who stayed as a pilot in the Cornerian Army while Fox went freelance. He first appears in 64 on the Katina stage, where he and his squadron help the Star Fox team destroy an enemy mothership. He later reappears as a playable character in Command. He also appears for one level of Zero.

---

• Ace Pilot: Bill is a skilled enough pilot that Fox originally considered inviting him to join the Star Fox team, but decided he didn't want to drag Bill into his problems. As it is, Bill shows enough tactical skill to become a squadron commander in Corneria's defense forces.
• Guest-Star Party Member: He fights alongside you on Katina and will follow you to Sector X or Solar if you do his mission.
• Heroic Dog: He's a dog person and fights to defend the good people of Corneria.
• Sergeant Rock: Bill fights on the frontlines with his troops, such as at the battle of Katina.
• Shadow Archetype: He went to the same military academy as Fox, and were both on the same career paths until Fox made the decision to go freelance. Bill is what Fox would be had he never taken the initiative to start his own mercenary group: an extension of the Cornerian Army, rather than an independent entity working along them.
• Shout-Out: His name is a reference to William Grey from Independence Day. The entire Katina sequence in 64 is an extended homage to that movie.
• Soldier Versus Warrior: A Soldier on the front lines of the Cornerian Army, with Fox being a Warrior that works in an independent mercenary group.
• Southern-Fried Private: Command seems to give him a Southern accent that lasts one game.
• Surfer Dude: Has this type of voice in 64 and Zero.
• What the Hell, Hero?: Whenever you shoot down one of his fighters in 64.
  Bill: Fox, that's one of ours!

Katt Monroe

"Starting without me? Boys, I'm crushed!"

Voices (Japanese): Kyoko Tonguu (Star Fox 64)
Kei Hayami (Star Fox 64 3D, Star Fox Zero)

Voices (English): Lyssa Browne (Star Fox 64, Star Fox 64 3D, Star Fox Zero)

Katt Monroe is a woman from Falco's past, when they were both members of the "FREE AS A BIRD" gang of space hot-rodders. The Japanese Manga Farewell, Beloved Falco shed some light on the nature of their relationship.

Katt appears in 64, Farewell, and Zero as a pink-furred cat. She appeared as a grey cat in Command, where she was playable as the Cat's Paw 2 pilot, but despite having a different design and fur color, she still remains to be the same character she was before in the previous game.

---

• Art Shift: Went from her different design back to her original design in Zero.
• Guest-Star Party Member: She fights alongside you on Zoness and will follow you to Macbeth or Sector Z if you do her mission.
• A Lizard Named "Liz": Her name is Katt, and she is a cat.
• Pink Girl, Blue Boy: Invoked rather blatantly in Farewell, with one of the other hot rodders being a blue tomcat.
• Pink Means Feminine: Before her Race Lift.
• Race Lift: Changing colors between Farewell and Command.
• She Is Not My Girlfriend: Apparently, Falco and Katt have never been an item and Falco doesn't express any desire of wanting one either. Doesn't seem to stop Katt from hoping for more from him. She also sometimes flirts with Fox on occasion.
• Tertiary Sexual Characteristics: Katt originally was this trope. Besides being pink, this was heavily reflected in the way she dressed, the way she did her hair, and especially her heavy blue eyeshadow.
• Unlucky Childhood Friend: When Falco and Katt were younger, Katt used to need rescuing from trouble all the time, and Falco was the one to rescue her. But Falco not only wanted Katt to be a more self-reliant person, but also didn't appreciate Katt having a crush on him. Katt finally became a capable woman when Falco's absence forced her to grow up.
• You Don't Look Like You: In Command, every aspect of her appearance is different. Her fur is changed from pink to black, she wears a red bandana which completely covers her bangs, her eyes are smaller with purple eyeshadow instead of blue, and her midriff baring outfit is swapped for something resembling body armour.

Caiman

"Caiman here. No problems."

Voices (Japanese): Shinobu Satouchi (Star Fox 64)
Takashi Ohara (Star Fox 64 3D, Star Fox Zero)

Voices (English): Bill Johns (Star Fox 64)
Jay Ward (Star Fox 64 3D and Star Fox Zero)

Originally a minor grunt in the armada stationed just outside Venom's airspace, he could be heard panicking as the Star Fox team proceeds to blast their way through the impressive fleet stationed to defend Andross' base. Due to him being the only minor villain with a confirmed name and his constant presence in Area 6, he grew popular with the fanbase leading to a much larger role in Star Fox Zero where he commands the invasion fleets in Corneria and Area 3.

---

• Ascended Extra: He has a MUCH more prominent role in Star Fox Zero than he did in 64.
• Death by Adaptation: Originally, he appeared to have survived the Lylat Wars. In Zero, one route has him apparently killed on Corneria.
• Tempting Fate: In 64, he's introduced doing a routine patrol of Area 6, reporting that there's "no problems". Almost as if on cue, the Star Fox Team swoop in and shoot down one of his wingmen.
• The Unfought: In 64, he's only ever seen commentating over Area 6. In Zero, while he can be seen in some of the stages, he isn't directly confronted in the first playthrough. Finally averted in the secret path on Corneria where he pilots the Aquarosa.
• Villainous Breakdown: He and his commander grow increasingly desperate as the Area 6 defenses are destroyed by Star Fox. When the final line is breached they deploy a superweapon originally designed to destroy entire planets.

Star Fox Adventures

Prince Tricky

Voiced by: Kevin Bayliss (Star Fox Adventures), Chet Morgan (Star Fox: Assault)

Fox's partner during his trek through Dinosaur Planet (later renamed Sauria). He aids Fox by following a handful of commands that allow him to solve many of the puzzles on the planet. Before Fox leaves the planet, he makes Tricky an honorary member of Star Fox, although he remains on the planet. Later on, Fox meets up with him again, and he is now a grown EarthWalker.

---

• Expy: Of Tricky the Triceratops from Diddy Kong Racing, another Nintendo game developed by Rare.
• She Is All Grown Up: Come Assault, the little guy is now the leader of the Earthwalker tribe.
• Partially Civilized Animal: Whereas all of the other characters in the series are Funny Animals, Tricky and the other dinosaurs on the planet (except SharpClaws) are this.
• Ridiculously Cute Critter: Helps that he's as big as a dog in Adventures, and that's absolutely tiny for dinosaur standards.
• Shipper on Deck: As he escorts Fox and Krystal back to the Arwing, he wants them to come back for their honeymoon. Fox's reaction is priceless.
• Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome: Between Adventures and Assault, Tricky grew from being pet-sized to big enough to flatten Fox. Justified since he's a ceratopsid, and those were known to get pretty darned big.

WarpStone

Voiced By: John Silke (English)

A massive humanoid made of rock who resides on Sauria, he serves as Fox's primary means to warp and travel to other major places in the game once the Queen Earthwalker grants our hero permission to do so.

---

• Aliens of London: Speaks with a Scottish accent.
• Aliens Speaking English: Like the ShopKeeper, he is the only other Saurian native who speaks perfect English to Fox with no need of a translator.
• Big Fun: Very huge and very friendly
• Crippling Overspecialization: While he can teleport Fox to any other places with no problem, he's strangely unable to teleport dinosaurs, which is rather odd considering that the natives of Sauria are, well, dinosaurs.
• Expy: Looks a lot like the Rockbiter.
• Golem: Made of rock, of course.
• Rock Monster: He's a fairly benevolent one, that is.

ShopKeeper (Shabunga)

The shrill, floating owner of the ThornTail Hollow store. Has an air of shadiness surrounding him. Fox can buy all sorts of stuff from his shop (including implicitly stolen items), although his prices aren't set in stone.

---

• Aliens Speaking English: The only dinosaur in the game that can speak English fluently, which adds to his mysteriousness.
• All There in the Manual: His real name, Shabunga, is only mentioned in the manual.
• Ambiguously Evil: He might be a SharpClaw and is heavily implied to be a thief as well, but in the end, he's just trying to make business.
• Decomposite Character: In earlier versions of the name, Shabunga was the name of the Firecrawler enemy.
• Do You Want to Haggle?: He's open for price negotiations, although if Fox tries to push his luck too much, he might double down and never budge from the initial price.
• Fell Off the Back of a Truck: Some of the items he sells are blatantly stolen, such as the Snowhorn artifact that mysteriously went missing years ago when he visited Snowhorn Wastes or Fox's binoculars which the game just flat out says that he swiped before Fox could get to them first.
• Get Out!: If you try to haggle and he refuses your offer three times he'll call you a cheapskate and shout this at you. He won't actually make you leave, though, and you can just try again.
• No Hero Discount: Doesn't care too much about the fate of Sauria, or that Fox is trying to save it. He cares only for his business.
• Really 700 Years Old: Some of his idle chatter has him complaining about how he's been doing this job for 200 years. Modern studies show that sauropods and smaller dinosaurs didn't live close to that long which adds to his mysterious nature.

Queen Cloudrunner

The queen of the Cloudrunner Tribe, who meets Fox after being rescued in Cape Claw.

• Ascended Extra: Downplayed, as she was somewhat important originally. In the original Dinosaur Planet, she is was a minor character who dies in the first scene she appears in. Her only other appearances were a brief scenea ghost in Black Water canyon and a brief appearance when Kyte says goodbye to Krystal at the end of the game. In SFA, she becomes a major supporting character and plays a pivotal in the Cloudrunner Fortress arc, where she is integral in helping Fox get to the fortress and later helping him get to the Spellstone.
• Composite Character: Played with. She technically was in the original Dinosaur Planet and does not share many traits with her daughter from there, Kyte, but she does essentially fulfill the role Kyte did in the DP version of Cloudrunner Fortress. Namely, she is the one to be freed from the royal chambers and who helps the protagonist navigate the fortress and get to the Spellstone
• Spared by the Adaptation: In Adventures, Scales simply beats and imprisons her during their encounter in Cloudrunner Fortress, instead of killing her like he did in Dinosaur Planet.
• The High Queen: The queen of the rich Cloudrunner Tribe, who both dresses and acts the part. And certainly kind enough to help Fox with his quest, shows concern for her babies' safety, and graciously bows to him and proclaims her tribe's thanks after Fox saves the fortress.

Star Fox Assault

Beltino Toad

Voiced By: Hirohiko Kakegawa (Japanese), Scott Burns (English)

Slippy's father and research director for the Cornerian army. He sometimes shows up in briefing sessions in Assault and Command.

---

• Absent-Minded Professor: Forgot to tell his own son that he became the research director before the events of Assault.
• All There in the Manual: Before his physical appearance in Assault, he was mentioned in 64's Japanese and English websites, as well as the Official Nintendo Player's Guide.
• Gadgeteer Genius: Even before he appeared in a game, the above-mentioned Player's Guide for 64 referred to him and Slippy as the inventors of the Blue-Marine.
• The Ghost: He was this in 64, being mentioned in support materials but not appearing in the game. He made his onscreen debut in Assault.
• Like Father, Like Son: Beltino and Slippy are both nerdy, Adorkable Gadgeteer Geniuses. The main difference is that Beltino stayed on as a scientist while Slippy now fights on the front lines.
• Non-Mammalian Hair: That mustache of his...

Star Fox Command

Amanda

Amanda is Slippy's fiancée, and becomes a playable character in Command, piloting the Tadpole.

---

• Action Girlfriend: Or fiancée in this case. She's Slippy's bride-to-be and fully capable of going on the battlefield like the rest.
• Battle Couple: With Slippy in Aquas.
• Non-Mammal Mammaries: She's the first major non-mammalian female character in the series, and she has breasts.
• Only One Name: Her last name isn't given for some reason.
• Pink Means Feminine: An inexplicably pink frog woman.
• Species Surname: She starts off in the game with no surname, but considering how she's engaged to Slippy and eventually marries him, she does come around to fitting the trope at some point.
• Tertiary Sexual Characteristics: Like that ginormous bow on her head, her eyelashes, the fact she's pink, etc.
• Tiny Guy, Huge Girl: She's a good head taller than Slippy.

Dash Bowman

Andross's grandson who serves in the Corneria Army and hero-worships Fox and Falco. He is a playable character in Command, piloting the Monkey Arrow.

---

• Dub Name Change: From "Ash" to "Dash".
• Face–Heel Turn: In the "Dash Makes A Choice" ending of Command, he succumbs to the same lust for power his grandfather did and declares war on Corneria.
• Remember the New Guy?: Nothing prior in the series ever truly suggested that Andross had children, let alone grandchildren (though given Andrew, he clearly had relatives), so Dash kinda seems to come out of nowhere.
• Token Heroic Orc: The only heroic primate in the series. Whether he stays heroic or not depends on which ending you get.
• Turn Out Like His Father: One of the Command endings suggests Dash will become a tyrant like his grandfather Andross did.
• You Killed My Father: Averted. Although Fox killed Andross, his grandfather, Dash Bowman has absolutely no hate for Fox killing him. In fact, his profile states he "thinks the world of Star Fox and its member pilots." Indeed, he is quite willing to fight alongside the team.
• Younger Than They Look: He's significantly younger than the other characters, and Falco makes fun of him for being Just a Kid.

Lucy Hare

The daughter of Peppy and Vivian who becomes a playable character in Command, piloting the Sky Bunny. She teaches Astrophysics on the planet Fichina.

---

• Badass Teacher: She's a university professor who wants to help people... with her powerful plasma cannons.
• Parental Abandonment: Vivian died before Lucy reached adulthood, so Lucy only has her father Peppy.
• Remember the New Guy?: Considering how it's implied that the McCloud, Hare, and Toad families have generally been very close both personally and professionally, it does come across as somewhat odd that Peppy's daughter would never be mentioned until now.
• Shipper on Deck: She thought Fox screwed up when he broke up with Krystal when she asked why. Let's not forget the fact that Lucy and Krystal have been pretty good friends.
• Species Surname: She's a hare, and her last name is Hare.

Vivian Hare

Peppy's wife and Lucy's mother who died of illness.

---

• All There in the Manual: Like Beltino, the first hint of her existance was in Star Fox 64 supplemental materials; specifically, the Japanese website shows Slippy referring to her by name and saying that she and Peppy had their honeymoon on Zoness, explaining his utter shock at its polluted state in the game.
• Happily Married: What little is given of it suggests that her and Peppy were this before she died.
• Missing Mom: To Lucy, although Peppy seems to miss her even more.
• Ironic Name: "Vivian" means "alive", but she is no longer with us (except in our hearts).
• Posthumous Character: Combined with Remember the New Guy? since most players didn't even hear about Peppy ever having a wife.
• Species Surname: Though unlike other characters, she presumably gained her surname by marrying Peppy.
• Theme Naming: "Vivian" means "alive", which matches Peppy's name, which means "lively".

Marcus

Fox and Krystal's son and the leader of a new Star Fox team, from a possible future opened up by Command's "Good-bye, Fox" ending.

---

• Amazing Technicolor Wildlife: Both of his parents are foxes; however, Marcus ends up with a blue coloration like his Cerinian mother.
• Babies Ever After: The ending in which he appears is one where Fox and Krystal settle down and have a kid named Marcus.
• Blue Is Heroic: He's a blue fox that carries on his father's heroic legacy.
• Canon Discontinuity: Possibly, due to Command not having a definitive ending.
• Generation Xerox: He inherited his father and grandfather's piloting skills, and starts his own Star Fox team with Slippy's son, Peppy's granddaughter, and Falco as The Mentor.
• Legacy Character: Is the leader of a new Star Fox team in a possible future.
• Passing the Torch: Unlike James and Fox, it seems that Marcus ends up becoming Star Fox leader without Fox suffering some kind of tragedy and has his father alive and well, albeit retired, to see him take the reigns.
• Strong Family Resemblance: Aside from his blue fur, which he inherited from his mother, Marcus looks very similar to Fox.

Star Fox Zero/Star Fox Guard

Direct-I

Grippy Toad

Slippy's uncle, and the rough and tough proprietor of Corneria Precious Metals.

---

• Amazing Technicolor Population: Unlike his nephew, who is green-skinned, Grippy is orange all over.
• Fat, Sweaty Southerner in a White Suit: He is a wealthy CEO who owns a mining company and wears a nice, pinstriped white suit.
• Non-Mammalian Hair: He is able to grow hair, including a mustache.
• The Rival: The AstroMine Corporation, secretly owned by Pigma Dengar.

---
