Template:CharacterInfoBox v2.5 Fox McCloud is a fictional anthropomorphic fox character and the main character in the Star Fox series. He is the leader of the Star Fox team, and is the son of James McCloud, the late leader of said team. Described as a fearless hero, Fox is headstrong and an excellent pilot in his league, with skills excelling even the majority of the Cornerian military. He is considered one of the greatest Arwing ace pilots around. Very few space pilots are on par with his skills, such as his colleague Falco Lombardi, or his nemesis Wolf O'Donnell.
Fox has appeared in every game in the series since the very first game, which is Star Fox, as he is, as mentioned earlier, the main character, and often the only playable character, practically dominating the series whole in such a way. Due to this, as well as having the name "Fox" in common, Fox McCloud is often considered synonymous with the team Star Fox, albeit Star Fox existed long before he had taken over the team. Fox is often erroneously called "Star Fox" himself by some fans of the series.
Fox was originally called "Fox McCloud, Jr." because that was his name in Benimaru Itoh's official comic adaptation of the first game, albeit the comics are not considered as canon. (Although, it does not matter as much since the first game lost its own canonity when the connection between Star Fox and Star Fox 64 was never explicitly referred to, accepting Star Fox 64 as a "remake" of the first game.)
In game History
Fox McCloud was born to James McCloud and an unnamed mother eighteen years before the events of Star Fox 64. Though it is unknown what happened to the mother, it is known that James was eventually forced to raise Fox on his own. Over time, Fox joined a pilot's academy with his old friend, Bill Grey.
Eventually, Andross began his rise to power and Pepper, General of the Cornerian Defense Force, hired his old friends the Star Fox team to take him down. Unfortunately, Pigma Dengar, a member of this team, was on Andross's payroll and betrayed James to his supposed death. While James's fate remains unknown, the third pilot, Peppy Hare, escaped and was left with unenviable task of informing Fox of his father's demise. Fox followed in the footsteps of his father by forming a new Star Fox team of his friends Slippy Toad, Falco Lombardi and original member Peppy Hare.
