Beltino Toad was originally the Director of Engineering at Space Dynamics Co. There, he developed the Arwing for the mercenary team led by [[James McCloud]], and the Landmaster tank, an armored exploration vehicle. At the time, only one prototype of the Landmaster existed and it was later modified by Beltino's son Slippy for use by the Star Fox team. Beltino also had a hand in the designing of the Star Fox mothership, the [[Great Fox]]. | Beltino Toad was originally the Director of Engineering at Space Dynamics Co.

[[File:Beltino Toad Assault Briefing.png|left|thumb|200px|Beltino Toad informing Fox of the Aparoid menace.]]Beltino was hired by the Cornerian Defense Force as the research director sometime after the Lylat War, something he had forgotten to tell Slippy. It was he that informed Fox about the true power of the [[Aparoid]] forces. Beltino suggested that Fox keep his eyes peeled for another Core Memory, due to the damage of the one he had obtained previously. He later found that the Core Memories contained the coordinates of the [[Aparoid Homeworld]] and sent a message to the Star Fox team about it. | [[File:Beltino Toad Assault Briefing.png|left|thumb|200px|Beltino Toad informing Fox of the Aparoid menace.]]Beltino was hired by the Cornerian Defense Force as the research director sometime after the Lylat War, something he had forgotten to tell Slippy.

When he was finally sent a Core Memory, Beltino managed to find the location of the homeworld as well as the Aparoids' susceptibility to apoptosis. He used this knowledge to construct a program for the Star Fox team to use on the Aparoid Queen to cause all Aparoids to self-destruct. The program took a lengthy time to finish and his base of research was attacked by Aparoid missiles. After the Star Fox and [[Star Wolf]] teams had destroyed the missiles, Beltino quickly finished the program. Beltino had seemingly inherited local command after the infection of [[General Pepper]] and ordered the operation of the transfer gate which was used by the Cornerian Defense Force, Star Fox, and Star Wolf groups to get to the Aparoid Homeworld. | |||
