Fox McCloud was born to James McCloud and an unnamed mother | Fox McCloud was born to James McCloud and an unnamed mother seventeen 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 [[General Pepper|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 with his friends [[Slippy Toad]], Falco Lombardi and original member Peppy Hare. | Eventually, Andross began his rise to power and [[General Pepper|Pepper]], General of the Cornerian Defense Force, hired his old friends the Star Fox team to take him down.

Fox is next seen in the Great Fox getting a message from General Pepper. The General procedes to send Star Fox the bill for their efforts and Falco walks in and asked to rejoin the team. At this point, Peppy remembers to play message sent from Krystal to Fox. In the message she apologized for being unable to talk long. While the message plays, the team hears a noise from the Great Fox's boarding platform and, at the end of the message, Krystal enters. Fox is visibly blushing when ROB 64 accidentally reveals that Fox's internal temperature is rising and that he is clearly in love with Krystal. The scene ends with the two looking and smiling at each other. | Fox is next seen in the Great Fox getting a message from General Pepper.

Another year passes and Fox is next seen in the Great Fox with his fellow team members flying into [[Fortuna|Fortunian]] space to assist the defense force against an insurgency led by Andross's nephew, [[Andrew Oikonny]]. Fox, Falco, Slippy, and Krystal chased the ape to the planet's surface and even to his base. When they finally confront him, Oikonny's ship had taken a similar form to Andross. Fox almost destroyed the machine when another laser seered through the head of the robot. Fox's team flew towards the origin of the laser and found an enormous robotic moth. After a wearisome battle, Fox destroyed the moth's wings and retrieved a strange orb from its head under Peppy's orders. The four made a retreat after an entire army of moths appeared in the skies. | |||
Upon briefing, Peppy revealed that the moth the team had faced was something called an [[Aparoid]], a strange monster that operated on a hive mind. Fox's team was then sent to Katina to answer a distress signal. While Falco, Krystal, and Slippy stayed in the air, Fox went to the base and took out dozens of Aparoids and Aparoid Hatchers. Upon the destruction of the final hatcher, an enormous Aparoid with a similar orb called a Core Memory attacked Fox. Using a [[Landmaster|Landmaster tank]], Fox killed the creature and exposed the Core Memory. Before he could retrieve the core, the distress signal stopped transmitting and a ship flew out of the base. The ship belonged to Pigma, who proceeded to steal and fly off with the Core Memory. The Star Fox team followed Pigma to the [[Sargasso Space Hideout]]. Here Falco and Krystal delt with the space fighters, while Fox and Slippy destroyed a series of enemy transporter devices. After the transporters were destroyed the leader of the hideout, Wolf O'Donnell and his team. A quick dogfight once again left Wolf's team coming out below Star Fox. With information from Star Wolf, Star Fox heads out to [[Fichina]]. | |||
Fox arrives on Fichina to find that the climate control center has been shut down by Pigma. With help from a Landmaster, Fox destroys the energy sources of the three shield generators that defend the center. Upon entering, Fox reactivates the climate control device, but he is then attacked by the security bots. He is saved by Falco after a short amount of time of defending himself and hopped on Falco's Arwing until Peppy could send him an Arwing. At that time, Slippy analyzed the security bots and found they were possessed by Aparoids. Pigma proceeded to escape and awaken an Aparoid that had possessed the climate device, causing it to go on a countdown to explosion. Fox forgets about Pigma and fires as many Smart Bombs into the device as possible, stopping the countdown and saving the device. He then followed Pigma to the [[Meteo Asteroid Belt]] where Pigma had built a new base for himself and the Aparoids. Fox and his team cleared the base to find Pigma's ship floating empty in space. Close by was a strange machine with Pigma, infected by Aparoids, seeemingly swallowed by the enormous weapon. Fox managed to destroy the strange amalgation of machine and pig and retrieved the Core Memory. | |||
Fox's team was then contacted by General Pepper who tells them that they were able to find the location of the [[Aparoid Homeworld]]. Before Fox can go, Krystal recieved a telepathic message from Tricky on Sauria asking for help in dealing with an Aparoid invasion. Fox reached the planet to find no living Dinosaurs and the living ones in hiding. The planet had been infested with Aparoid Hatchers which Fox and Krystal were sent down to destroy. After destroying the hatchers, Fox and Krystal found Tricky, who poked fun at Fox and Krystal's obvious relationship and asked them to come back on their honeymoon. Fox, embarrased, denied everything and Krystal stopped the fight. | |||
After returning to the Great Fox, Fox recieved news from General Pepper. Corneria City had been destroyed by an Aparoid invasion that nearly wiped out the Corneria Defense Force. Fox arrived on the ground to destroy a series of radar jammers, while his teammates had to deal with Cornerian soldiers infected by Aparoids. Fox destroyed the jammers using his [[Sniper Rifle]]. Fox arrived to find the Arwing Peppy had sent him destroyed and himself surrounded by Aparoids. At the last moment, Wolf flies in and saves Fox, saying that he only came so he could trump Fox himself later. Fox rode on Wolf's Wolfen wing and destroyed many Aparoids before the General's flagship approached on the horizon with Pepper flying it, but both were infected by the Aparoids. The General told Fox that their is no choice but to destroy him. Fox reluctantly did as his friend commanded and shot down the General's flagship. Against all reccomendation, Peppy had flown in an Arwing between the ground and General's path to save him. With the General out of commission, Fox and company flew to the [[Beltino Orbital Gate]] where they would warp to the Aparoid Homeworld. Unfortunately, the space station was then targeted by over a dozen Aparoid missiles, but were quickly destroyed by Star Fox and Star Wolf, who then proceeded through the warp gate. | |||
At the homeworld, Fox and Krystal went on the offensive and destroyed a series of hatchers while Falco and Slippy defended them from air fighters and Peppy acted as commander of the invasion. When the hatchers were destroyed, the shield covering the entrance to the lair of the [[Aparoid Queen]]. Before they could enter, though, a new, energy based shield was put up by the Queen. At that point, Peppy told the team to clear out as they see the Great Fox, covered in Aparoids and failing, plummeting towards the shield. When the mothership collided with the shield, the shield shattered, openning up a window for the team. Fox tells everyone they have to use this window to battle the Queen. When Fox and his friends entered the tunnel, they soon found themselves followed by Star Wolf. The two teams fought through the tunnel until the enemies began to overwhelm them right before the Queen's chamber. Wolf's team drew the enemies away so Fox and his team could make their way to the Queen. There the Queen uses voices of Pigma, Pepper, Peppy, ROB, and even James to convince Star Fox to give up. Fox knowing his father would never even allow him to give up, told his team blast the armor off the Queen. With the armor gone, Fox fired a self-destruct program into the Queen. She managed to suppress it and escaped into another tunnel. Fox's team worked together to destroy the Aparoid Queen's body, but Fox was forced to go it alone when all that remained was the Queen's head. The Queen's ultimate destruction caused the destruction of all the remaining Aparoids and their planet and with his team, Fox escaped. | |||
After the planet's destruction, Fox's team remembered those who were killed in the war. At that point, a flashing light was seen by Slippy and it was revealed that Peppy and ROB had ejected the bridge of the Great Fox and escaped, something Fox had already known. He then revealed that Pepper and Wolf's team very well could be alive. When asked what to do next, Fox thanked his friends and they began a new adventure. | |||
