Titania is known as the "Red Planet" | 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. | ||

Long ago, Titania might have been a prosperous, fertile world, home to a progressive agrarian society. Using advanced construction techniques, the Titanians erected ornate cities of stone located between small farming communities. As is evidenced in their elaborate temples, the Titanians are thought to have worshiped the Goras creature as a sort of harvest god. | |||
In time, an asteroid, possibly from the [[Asteroid Belt|Meteo Asteroid Belt]], collided with Titania, instantly turning what was once a lush world into its current desolate state. | |||

Through bio-mechanical experimentation, Andross altered the creature's DNA and turned it into a fearsome warrior. The [[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. | ||
Four years after the Lylat Wars, research bases | 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. | ||
