Much of Krystal's early history remains unknown. She is stated to be the only survivor of the destruction of the planet Cerinia.

[[File:Krystal and CloudRunner Intro Adventures.png|left|thumb|Krystal flying on a [[CloudRunner]].]]A short time before the events of ''Star Fox Adventures'', Krystal had picked up a telepathic distress signal from the planet Sauria. With the help of a CloudRunner rebel, she learned that the planet was being torn apart due to the results of the tyrannical [[General Scales]]. Shortly afterwards, the two are set upon by the General's flying galleon and Krystal's staff was shot from her hands. The CloudRunner managed to damage the airship greatly before Krystal jumped onto the ship itself. Unfortunately, she was captured by General Scales and, after a quick dialogue, was thrown overboard only to be saved by the CloudRunner. The CloudRunner then flew Krystal to the [[Krazoa Palace]] which had been overrun by the [[SharpClaw]] where she found many gravely injured [[EarthWalker]] warriors in the palace. After journeying through the palace, Krystal found a strange altar with an entity called a [[Krazoa|Krazoa Spirit]]. The spirit tasked Krystal with a test so that she may host the Krazoa, and the mission to collect the other five spirits. Unfortunately, her mission was cut short as she released the spirit into one of the Krazoa Shrines. Doing this allowed an unknown entity, one that Krystal seemed to recognize, to imprison her in a large, crystalline mechanism.

[[File:Krystal Encased Adventures.png|right|thumb|Krystal imprisoned in the crystalized mechanism.]]Twice in the game, Fox McCloud heard her voice through telepathic messages. The first was a message from within her staff which he had found in [[ThornTail Hollow]]. This told him about the staff and how to use it. The second message Fox recieved in [[Moon Mountain Pass]]. Here, Krystal pleaded for help from Fox and [[Tricky]] while the Krazoa she freed tasked Fox with finishing her mission to save her. It is unknown whether this was real or an illusion by Andross. After finding the second spirit and going to the Krazoa Palace for the first time, Fox first saw Krystal and instantly fell in love.

[[File:KrystalReleased.jpg|left|thumb|The first meeting of Krystal and Fox.]]Once Fox had defeated General Scales, claimed his Krazoa, and released it into the palace, the Krazoa Spirits began to float around Krystal. They then entered her body and were shot out into the statue of the Krazoa. As the spirits were released, Krystal's prison shattered and she plunged from the top of the palace. Fortunately, Fox had been quick enough that he was able to stick Krystal's staff out fast enough for her to catch it. The two locked eyes and there was an immediate spark between the two. Fox hoisted Krystal up and she proceeded to take her staff back, against Fox's wishes. She uses the staff's power to blast at the statue head now floating above them, but the monster escaped and Fox followed with his [[Arwing]].

[[File:FoxAndKrystal.jpg|right|thumb|Krystal and Fox together.]]After [[Andross]], the true identity of the statue, was defeated and the Star Fox team reunited, Peppy told Fox about a message he had received from Krystal. In the message, she stated that she was eternally grateful to him and was sad that they didn't get a chance to thank him. To everyone's surprise, Krystal appeared in the [[Great Fox]] to do it personally.  The other team members quickly saw that Fox was entirely smitten with her, especially after [[ROB]] unintentionally revealed his rising temperature and asks if he's okay. The game ends with the two staring into each other and Fox telling ROB he was perfectly fine.

In the debris of the collapsed homeworld, Star Fox basked in the glory of victory, except for Krystal. She remembered all those who died in the fight against the Aparoids. At that moment, Slippy saw a flashing light that was the same as the one from the escape pod of the Great Fox. Seconds afterward came a transmission from Peppy, the one they thought dead. Krystal was last seen asking Fox what would happen next.

{{SpoilerEnd}}

Krystal has yet to appear as a playable fighter in a Smash Bros. game despite being among the most desired characters for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. She does appear on the [[Lylat Cruise]] stage when Fox, Falco, and Wolf activate their special taunt. Krystal also has a trophy based on her appearance in ''Star Fox: Assault'' as well as three stickers based on concept art of her from ''Star Fox Adventures'', ''Star Fox: Assault'', and ''Star Fox Command''.
