List of Star Fox characters
Wikimedia list article
Star Fox is a series of spaceship shooter games published by Nintendo. The main protagonist and player character of the series is Fox McCloud, the leader of Star Fox, a team of anthropomorphic animals in the Lylat planetary system. Gameplay involves control of futuristic aircraft called Arwings, as well as other vehicles and combat on foot.
According to programmer Dylan Cuthbert, several names of animals were used in the names of the characters whenever the development team believed they, for those characters, "[sounded] good".
Star Fox
Star Fox, or Team Star Fox, is a band of adventurers-for-hire often employed by General Pepper. The team is headed by Fox McCloud. Star Fox 64 fills in the background of the team: at its founding, it was composed of James McCloud, Peppy Hare, and Pigma Dengar, who later betrays the team and sides with Andross. Peppy later retires from active flight duty shortly before Star Fox: Assault and was essentially replaced by Krystal, Fox's love interest. The team's primary aircraft is the Arwing, their land craft is the Landmaster, and the team's mothership is known as the Great Fox. The team is made up of Fox McCloud, Falco Lombardi, Krystal, Slippy Toad, and Peppy Hare.

Why this record matters
“List of Star Fox characters” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, List, Star and characters provides the most credible route into that argument.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 17, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2663905. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.
