'''Titania''' is barren, desert world of crumbling ruins and sandy dunes located in the [[Lylat System]]. It was the site of a number of battles during the [[Lylat Wars]] and later conflicts.
== Overview==
Titania is known as the "Red Planet" due to massive ion storms that stir up red dust from the planet's surface and deposit it into the stratosphere. Archaeologists have discovered a large number of ancient ruins on Titania, pointing to an ancient civilization that once inhabited the planet. The only survivor of this lost civilization is a creature code-named [[Goras]], believed to be an advanced planetary defense system. Due to Titania's hostile nature, travel to the planet is usually restricted to researchers alone.

===''Star Fox''===
Titania is known as the "Red Planet" because of the massive ion storms that kick up dust from the planet's surface and deposit it into the stratosphere.  A surprising amount of ancient ruins have been discovered on Titania by archaeologists, pointing to an advanced ancient civilization that once inhabited the planet.  The only survivor of this lost civilization is a creature code-named "[[Goras]]", believed to be an advanced planetary defense system.
In ''[[Star Fox (game)|Star Fox]]'' and the [[Star Fox (Nintendo Power comic)|Nintendo Power comic]], Titania is a frozen planet, much like [[Fichina]] in the ''[[Star Fox 64]]'' reboot.  In the game, the planet's frozen climate can be changed instantly to a warmer climate by destroying a planetary weather device.


==History==
===''Star Fox 2''===
Until about two million years ago Titania was a prosperous planet, home to a progressive agrarian society.  The Titanians constructed ornate cities of stone located between their farming communities using advanced construction techniques. They worshiped the Goras creature by constructing temples in the center of their towns and leaving their harvests their to appease the creature.  Then a massive asteroid crashed into Titania and destroyed everything, turning the lush world into its current barren state.
In ''[[Star Fox 2]]'', Titania served as one of Andross' many bases. Note that in this game, Titania has a moon.


During the [[Lylat Wars]], scout forces sent by [[Andross]] investigated the planet and discovered Goras. The mad scientist, through biomechanical experimentation, altered the creature and turned it into a fearsome warrior. The [[Star Fox Team]] battled through Venomian forces in a search for [[Slippy Toad]], who had crash-landed on Titania and was captured by Goras. [[Fox McCloud]] succeeded in rescuing Slippy and destroying Goras, ending the creature's existence.
=== ''Star Fox 64'' ===
During the [[Lylat Wars]] of ''[[Star Fox 64]]'', scout forces sent by [[Andross]] investigated the planet and discovered the Goras. Through bio-mechanical experimentation, Andross altered the creature's DNA and turned it into a fearsome warrior. The [[Star Fox (team)|Star Fox team]] battled through [[Venom|Venomian]] forces in search of [[Slippy Toad]], who had crash-landed on Titania and was captured by the Goras. Ultimately, [[Fox McCloud]] rescued Slippy, destroying the Goras in the process.


It has recently appeared in [[Star Fox Assault]] as a VS. mode stage. The base in the center is the battle field.
=== ''Star Fox: Assault'' ===
Due to its barren nature, Titania was not targeted during the [[Aparoid]] invasion. Though, a desert on Titania is the setting of one of ''[[Star Fox: Assault]]'' multiplayer battlefields.


==References==
=== ''Star Fox Command'' ===

In all of its appearances in the ''[[Star Fox Command]]'' storylines, Titania plays the same role. Fox was told by either, [[Peppy Hare]] or [[Krystal]] that Andross had worked on a terraforming project for Venom before his death. A device meant to neutralize the Venom Sea was hidden here by Andross and was protected by a bioweapon. Depending on the storyline, the team that goes to find this device was either the Star Fox team from ''Star Fox'' and ''Star Fox 64'', the Star Fox team from ''Star Fox: Assault'', or Fox and [[Falco Lombardi]] teaming up with either [[Wolf O'Donnell]] or [[Dash Bowman]]. After this, the team flew to Venom and used it to neutralize the acidity of the Venom Sea. In one storyline, though, Wolf betrayed Fox and Falco and took the device so that [[Star Wolf|his team]] could be the heroes.
 
=== Other appearances ===
In the ''[[Star Fox (Nintendo Power comic)|Star Fox]]'' comic, which takes place about four years after the Lylat Wars, research bases were established on Titania, including one commanded by [[Captain Shears]]. [[Katt Monroe]], as well as the other members of the [[Hot Rodders]] gang, battled against another Goras that was secretly sent by Captain Shears himself. Shears and his subordinates were later revealed to be remnants of Andross' army, and they had experimented with various regeneration technologies in hopes of reviving Andross. The regeneration process finished prematurely, and the result was a mindless clone of Andross which was promptly defeated by Fox McCloud.

==Trivia==
* Titania appears to be based on [[Wikipedia:Mars|Mars]], whose similarly red, lifeless surface has captured the imagination of humans for millennia.
*In the same vein as [[Macbeth]], Titania was most likely named after a William Shakespeare [[Wikipedia:Titania|character]] from his play ''A Midsummer Night's Dream''. Titania is also the name given to Uranus' largest [[Wikipedia:Titania (moon)|moon]].
