Team Star Fox
The Star Fox Team is a legendary team of mercenaries which has repeatedly defended the Lylat System in times of peril. The team has evolved radically over the years, as well as the equipment they've used. Founded by James McCloud, the leadership passed through to his son, Fox, after his death.
History
The Star Fox Team was founded by James McCloud and his best friend, Peppy Hare. Shortly into their new career, they were joined by a new member: Pigma Dengar. The team flew abound the Lylat, finding work wherever they were.
The Lylat Wars
Meanwhile, a scientist named Andross was banished to the far, desolate planet of Venom...
Occurance at Venom
Strange occurances began to surface over from Venom. Wanting to know what was going on, General Pepper of the Cornerian Army hired the team to investigate. When they arrived at the planet, Pigma betrayed the team and turned them over to Andross, who had payed him a larger sum of money than he had ever before received. Peppy was able to escape, but his friend James was not. Peppy returned to Corneria and informed Pepper of the danger Andross possesed to the Lylat System. He also told James's son Fox of his father's fate. He took Fox under his wing and guided him in his quest to become a pilot.
The New Star Fox Team
Years later, Andross's forces began to gather strength, and war was imminent. Pepper decided to re-form the Star Fox team, and set up a high budget around it. Supplying a new mothership, new weapons and even an automated robot to run them, Pepper recreated the team, with the now 18-year-old Fox McCloud as the new leader. With his dear friend Peppy, Fox chose new members, including the skilled mechanic Slippy Toad and former gang member Falco Lombardi.
Starting at Corneria, the team fought through Andross's minons to Venom, where Fox single-handedly defeated the warlord.
The team returned to Corneria, where Pepper commended them and offered them positions in the Cornerian Army. Fox denied his offer, claiming they preferred working solo. They flew off, looking for jobs just as they had in the days of old, looking forward to a bright future.
