Hidden under his white muzzle are his sharp white fangs and he also has knife-like claws. Wolf has a short white beard on his chin and a rough gray tail which has a split at the tip. His body fur is gray and white. Wolf has a very muscular build, and coupled with his size advantage over the other characters, it doesn't come as a surprise that he is the strongest of all the main characters in the series. Possibly one of the most recognizable features of Wolf is his mechanical eyepatch, which replaced the eyepatch he used in ''[[Star Fox 64]]''. He speaks with a voice reminiscent of a British aristocrat. | Hidden under his white muzzle are his sharp white fangs and he also has knife-like claws.

In ''Star Fox: Assault'', he had gone through a complete revamp. He was dressed in leather clothing with spiked shoulder guards, had replaced his eyepatch with a mechanical one, and spoke in a gruffer voice, possibly with a slight accent of the southern states. The game also showed that Wolf wasn't a complete villain like [[Andross]] and that he actually respected Fox. ''Star Fox Command'' shows him looking virtually the same as his ''Star Fox: Assault'' appearance. His personality, though, was greatly changed. He was far less serious and shown to be far more sarcastic and impatient, similar to [[mariowiki:Wario|Wario]] of the Mario series.<ref> | In ''Star Fox: Assault'', he had gone through a complete revamp.

[[File:StarFoxVSStarWolf.png|left|thumb|Wolf tailing Fox on Fichina.]]Shortly before the Lylat Wars, Andross hired Wolf and his team to defeat the Star Fox team. Andross put his nephew, [[Andrew Oikonny]], on the team to monitor them. Wolf first attacked Star Fox with his team on [[Fichina]] while they attempted to diffuse a bomb in a Cornerian base. Wolf tailed Fox during the battle but was defeated quickly and escaped into space. Later, if Fox went to the [[Bolse Defense Satellite]], Wolf and his team attacked Fox again, though they met defeat again. | [[File:StarFoxVSStarWolf.png|left|thumb|Wolf tailing Fox on Fichina.]] | ||

If Fox got to [[Venom]] from [[Area 6]], Wolf would appear before the gates of Andross's lair, both him and his team in new, redesigned ships called Wolfen IIs. Wolf once again tailed Fox, but, even though Wolf used all the piloting skills he could muster, was again defeated. | If Fox got to [[Venom]] from [[Area 6]], Wolf would appear before the gates of Andross's lair, both him and his team in new, redesigned ships called Wolfen IIs.
