'''Peppy Hare''' was one of the members of the original [[Star Fox (team)|Star Fox team]]. He and [[James McCloud]] were betrayed by fellow member, [[Pigma Dengar]]. James did not escape alive, but Peppy did and gave the news of his death to his son, [[Fox McCloud]]. Fox eventually formed a new Star Fox team that Peppy joined. He served by giving useful information to his allies and a capable pilot. Eventually he retired and became a general in the [[Cornerian Defense Force]], succeeding [[General Pepper]]. He has a wife, [[Vivian Hare]] (deceased) and a daughter, [[Lucy Hare]].

== Appearance ==
Peppy appears as a gray haired rabbit with noticeable buckteeth. His general appearance hasn't changed much over the years, but age has caused him to appear slightly older, as he has gained glasses and his ears began to droop. He also gained a bushier moustache and bushier eyebrows.

[[File:SFteam3d.png|left|thumb|Peppy with the original Star Fox team]]Peppy Hare was a member of the original Star Fox led by James McCloud. [[General Pepper]] had sent them to the planet [[Venom]] to quiet down possible threats from the exiled [[Andross|Dr. Andross]]. When the team reached there, it was found that the third member of the team, [[Pigma Dengar]], was a traitor on Andross's payroll. James and Peppy were imprisoned, but managed to escape. Though Peppy was successful in escaping, he did so with numerous injuries and James forced him to leave alone and was supposedly killed by Andross. Peppy barely limped home to tell James's son, Fox, of his father's fate. When Fox was old enough, he took up his father's role as leader of the Star Fox team and Peppy, with Fox's friends [[Slippy Toad]] and [[Falco Lombardi]] joined the new team.

The new Star Fox team was truly tested when Andross declared war on the [[Lylat System]]. Pepper once again called on the team to fight of Andross armies. Peppy and his teammates made their way to [[Corneria]], but found the planet's capital in ruins. The team crossed through the capital to battle one of Andross's two lieutenants stationed on Corneria. Depending on the lieutenant they faced, Peppy and the rest of Star Fox went to the [[Meteo|Meteo Asteroid Belt]] or [[Sector Y]].

Peppy was finally given the chance to avenge his fallen leader when the team crossed skies with [[Star Wolf]] on Fichina. Star Wolf was a mercenary team like Star Fox, though was less bound by morals and led by [[Wolf O'Donnell]]. They had been hired by Andross, but what caught Peppy's eye was that the traitorous Pigma was on the team. The two battled it out and Pigma was defeated. The Star Fox team made their way through several more planets before finally arriving at their final destination, the planet Venom. Once again, they were attacked by Star Wolf, who now had more advanced ships but were once again defeated by Star Fox. Peppy had no part in the final battle against Andross as Fox had decided to go it alone. Peppy was next seen accepting the reward for Star Fox with his teammates and then left when [[ROB 64]] called Fox that the team's mothership, the [[Great Fox]], was ready to leave.

=== ''Star Fox Adventures'' ===
For eight years, the Star Fox team failed to gain a job that had any significant pay. One day, General Pepper sent a message to the team asking for help on the planet [[Sauria]]. He stated that the planet was literally falling apart and the Star Fox team agreed to help. Fox was forced to go it alone on the planet surface, but Peppy gave Fox help in providing maps and advice on areas through Fox's communicator. When Fox first laid eyes upon [[Krystal]], Peppy snapped him out of his daze and later advised Fox that the [[King EarthWalker]] might know the reason for the planet not being reunited at the placement of the SpellStones. Later, after Andross's final defeat, Peppy remembered that he had recieved a message from Krystal thanking Fox. When she arrived on the ship, Peppy was the only one not to poke fun at Fox for his obvious attraction to Krystal.

=== Supposed Retirement ===
=== ''Star Fox: Assault'' ===
[[File:Peppy Assault Intro.png|right|thumb|Peppy commanding the Great Fox.]]With a new member found in Krystal, Peppy decided that it was time for retirement from piloting. He stayed with his team though, and acted as the team's strategist and the Great Fox's pilot. Under the orders of General Pepper, he and the rest of the team flew into the space above [[Fortuna]] to fight the remainder of Andross's army led by the Andross's nephew, [[Andrew Oikonny|Oikonny]]. He launched the team's Arwings and, when they chased Oikonny to the planet's surface, advised them that they could never tell what a cornered beast might do. When Oikonny's ship was destroyed by an [[Aparoid]], Peppy recognized it immediately and commanded Fox to retrieve its Core Memory when the creature was destroyed.

After General Pepper and [[Beltino Toad]] told the team of the Aparoid menace, they responded to distress siganl emanating from an outpost on [[Katina]]. Fox went on foot and Peppy sent him a [[Landmaster|Landmaster tank]] to help the situation. After Fox had defeated several Aparoids, Aparoid Hatchers began to appear and Peppy warned Fox that they could spawn more Aparoids. A gargantuan Aparoid appeared after the destruction of all hatchers, but when Peppy told Fox to retrieve the Core Memory after its defeat, Pigma appeared from within the base and stole the core. Peppy called the team back and followed Pigma to the [[Sargasso Space Hideout]]. Peppy cursed Pigma for going to such a haven of foul enemies and commanded the team to take control of the hideout. When the leaders of the hideout were revealed to the Star Wolf team, Peppy told Fox that there was no choice but to fight them and the team learned that Pigma was on Fichina.

Peppy told the team that, though Fichina was usually covered in a perpetual blizzard, a climate control center made it habitable. He then told them that Pigma had shut down the center and the blizzard had started up again. Peppy sent Fox down to the surface in a Landmaster and told him to destroy the generators of the device's defense shield. After Fox was saved by Falco after being ambushed in the base, Peppy sent him an [[Arwing]]. Peppy told the team that the Aparoids had infected the device and that Fox would have to blast it to prevent it from exploding. Falco was surprised at the Aparoids being able to control machines and Peppy responded by saying that those with weak wills are easily possessed, something that reminds Fox of his father. The team then followed Pigma to the Asteroid Belt where they found that Pigma was building a base, something that Peppy was unsurprised by. Though even he was surprised when Pigma was fused into a giant Aparoid weapon. Peppy told Fox to dodge devestating laser Pigma now used and the machine was soon destroyed. Fox retrieved the Core Memory and sent it to General Pepper, who told them it was time to go to the [[Aparoid Homeworld]]. Before doing so, Krystal recieved a telepathic message from Sauria and Peppy flew the Great Fox there to aid the Saurians. Peppy monitored the fight in the skies with Slippy and Falco while Krystal and Fox fought on the ground.

[[File:Peppy Saves Pepper Assault.png|right|thumb|Peppy flying down to save General Pepper.]]When the team heard that Corneria had been invaded and the army decimated, Peppy forced the team to head there immediately. He commanded Fox to take out a series of radar jammers so that the team could easily target enemies. Peppy sent Fox an Arwing when the jammers were destroyed, but the Aparoids destroyed the Arwing and Fox was saved by Wolf. Peppy noticed the general's flagship on the horizon, but the general was infected by Aparoids. Peppy believed that Fox could end the battle by destroying only the machine parts and when the ship fell, Peppy flew in an Arwing underneath the general to catch him before the ship hit the ground, greatly injuring himself so that even he wasn't sure he'd survive.<ref>''"One way or another, my duty's done."'' — Peppy Hare, ''Star Fox: Assault''</ref>. With Pepper incapacitated, Peppy led the invasion to the Aparoid Homeworld. Before they left, the gateway they were using to warp there was attacked by Aparoids, but they were quickly expelled.
