Difference between revisions of "Star Wolf"

The '''Star Wolf team''' is a mercenary group led by [[Wolf O'Donnell]]. They were originally associated with the evil [[Andross]], and after his demise cemented themselves as rivals of [[Star Fox (team)|Star Fox]].

The original team consisted of Wolf O'Donnell, [[Leon Powalski]], [[Andrew Oikonny]], and [[Pigma Dengar]]. However in ''[[Star Fox: Assault]]'', Andrew left Star Wolf to avenge Andross and Pigma was expelled because of his greediness. Wolf later replaced Andrew and Pigma with [[Panther Caroso]]. In ''[[Star Fox Command]]'', [[Krystal]] joins Star Wolf but can either stay with Star Wolf or join [[Fox McCloud]] depending on the player's decisions. Also, they have massive bounties placed on their heads because of their work. Their main ship is the [[Wolfen]].

==Members==

====Wolf O'Donnell====

{{main|Wolf O'Donnell}}

'''Wolf O'Donnell''', is the leader of the Star Wolf team and rival of [[Fox McCloud]]. Wolf's team was initially hired by Andross to take down the Star Fox team. The Star Wolf team ultimately fails their mission, causing Wolf to seek revenge for his own personal reasons. Years later, in ''Star Fox: Assault'', Wolf planned on taking down the Star Fox team once more, but the later invasion of the [[Aparoids]] caused him to come to Fox's rescue. Even so, he claims the only reason he did was so that he could kill Fox off himself later. He helped Fox during some scenarios of ''Star Fox Command'', where he stated that he feels a grudging respect towards Fox.

Wolf O'Donnell is also a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', alongside Fox McCloud and [[Falco Lombardi]]. He fights similarly to them, but is heavier and slower, using slashing attacks with his claws instead of mostly utilizing kicks like Fox and Falco.

====Leon Powalski====

{{main|Leon Powalski}}  

'''Leon Powalski''' is the only original member other than Wolf himself to have stayed with Star Wolf since ''Star Fox 64''. Leon is a dangerous enemy, whose secretive nature is emulated in being very cold, calculating, and cunning. He has had some past rivalry with Star Fox member Falco Lombardi, whom he mainly concentrates his fire on in ''Star Fox 64'' and bickers with in ''Star Fox: Assault''. In ''Star Fox 64'', although he speaks with an eloquent and classy manner, he obsesses with the idea of mercilessly torturing his prey and inflicting pain as his specialty.

====Panther Caroso====

{{main|Panther Caroso}}

'''Panther Caroso''' made his first appearance as the newest member of Star Wolf in ''[[Star Fox: Assault]]''. His signature symbol is a red rose and is quite conceited, often embarrassing those around him. He is also quite a flirt, considering himself a ladies' man. In ''Star Fox: Assault'' he attempts to flirt with Krystal several times, but she either ignores or rejects him depending on the circumstances. Panther appears again in ''Star Fox Command'', where he attempted to begin a relationship with Krystal after she joins the Star Wolf team following her break-up with Fox.

Panther is voiced in the Japanese version of ''Star Fox: Assault'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' by Tetsu Inada, while his English voice actor in ''Star Fox: Assault'' is David Scully. The English version of ''Star Fox: Command'' has Panther speaking in the third person. In the game, he is known as Panther Caruso (not Caroso) and the bounty put on his head by [[Corneria]] is double that of Leon's, showing his undeniable skill.

====Andrew Oikonny====

{{main|Andrew Oikonny}}

'''Andrew Oikonny''' is the nephew of the evil [[Andross]]. He is an inexperienced pilot who only flies to try and follow in Andross's footsteps. Sometime after Andross was defeated, Oikonny left Star Wolf, and planned to avenge his uncle's death. In ''Star Fox: Assault'', Oikonny gathered Andross's remaining troops and formed a rebellion against the [[Cornerian Defense Force]]. The Star Fox team tracked him down to the planet [[Fortuna]], where his ship turned into a large likeness of himself, strongly resembling Andross' form. During the battle, Oikonny is unexpectedly shot down by an Aparoid. He returns once again in ''Star Fox Command'', where he joins the [[Anglar]]s and pilots the Death Crab, confronting Star Fox in [[Fichina]] City.  

====Pigma Dengar====

{{main|Pigma Dengar}}

'''Pigma Dengar''' is one of the original members of the Star Fox team, and after he betrayed [[James McCloud]] and [[Peppy Hare]] to Andross, he joined Star Wolf. He is an exceptionally greedy pirate who does not care who he hurts so long as he ends up with a large paycheck in the end. When fighting Star Fox in ''Star Fox 64'', Pigma focuses on Peppy because they were once teammates. Wolf later expels Pigma from Star Wolf due to his incredible greed and distrustful nature.

Pigma is voiced by Daisuke Gōri in the Japanese version of ''Star Fox 64'' and ''Star Fox: Assault''. In the English version of Star Fox 64, he is voiced by David Frederick White. In the English version of Star Fox: Assault, he is voiced by Lev Liberman.
