James McCloud (ジェームズ・マクラウド, Jēmuzu Makuraudo) is the father of Fox McCloud and the founder of the Star Fox team. On a scouting mission to Venom, he is betrayed by Pigma Dengar and captured by the evil [[Andross]]. Though his true fate is ambiguous, he is presumed dead by most all sources. He appears to Fox McCloud in Star Fox 64 to lead Fox out of Andross's exploding base, and in Star Fox Command during a final boss fight, James makes his first playable appearance piloting an arwing like Peppy which resembles the Assault design. None of the other characters acknowledge him, and Fox questions if he is seeing things.

Peppy Hare (ペッピー・ヘア, Peppī Hea) is a member of the original Star Fox team, with leader James McCloud and wingmate Pigma Dengar. After Pigma's betrayal and James' capture, Peppy narrowly escapes to return to Corneria to inform Fox McCloud of his father's fate. Ever since then, Peppy serves as Fox's mentor and frequently gives Fox instructions and advice throughout the course of the games. Peppy's phrase from Star Fox 64, "Do a barrel roll!", has become infamous on the internet, and is spoken on several internet forums.

====Future====
Peppy has been voiced by Tomohisa Asō in the Japanese version of Star Fox 64 and Star Fox Assault, Isaac Marshall in the English version of Star Fox 64, Chris Seavor in Star Fox Adventures and the English version of Super Smash Bros. Melee, and Henry Dardenne in the English version of Assault.
#[[Marcus McCloud]]
 
#[[Falco Lombardi]]
====Pigma Dengar====
#Slippy's Son
{{main|Pigma Dengar}}
#Lucy's Daughter
Pigma Dengar (ピグマ・デンガー, Piguma Dengā) is one of the original members of the Star Fox team, and after he betrays the team to help Andross, he joins 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, he focuses on Peppy because they were once teammates. Wolf O'Donnell later expels Pigma from Star Wolf due to his incredible greed and distrustful nature. Pigma attempts to control the Aparoids in Star Fox Assault, but fails and later undergoes assimilation, which fuses him with a spacecraft. His spirit continues to live on in the form of a cube-shaped puzzle box cyborg after his body is destroyed. He serves as a boss in Star Fox Command; whether the player encounters him depends on certain decisions made during the game.
 
Pigma is voiced by Daisuke Gōri in Japan. In the English version of Star Fox: Assault, he is voiced by Lev Liberman. In the Japanese version of Star Fox 64, "Pigma speaks in the Kansai dialect of Japan." His last name is a reference to a feature of the Kansai dialect: speakers of this dialect often end their sentences with 'dengar'.

====Fox McCloud====
{{main|Fox McCloud}}
[[Image:FoxA3.jpg|thumbnail|Fox McCloud.]]
Fox McCloud (フォックス・マクラウド, Fokkusu Makuraudo) is the main character of the Star Fox series, and leader of the Star Fox team since his father, [[James McCloud]], went missing after his capture by Andross. When he heard about his father's death, he dropped out of the Cornerian Air Force. At the start of the series, Fox was young and still learning under the training of Peppy Hare, his father's friend and wingmate. He has since become an expert pilot, and has repeatedly brought tranquility to the Lylat System. Fox is skilled in both air and ground based attacking, as seen in Star Fox Assault.
 
Krystal is seen as Fox's love interest, much like Princess Peach is to Mario. This relationship develops in Star Fox Adventures, is expanded on briefly in Assault, and turns rocky in Star Fox Command.
 
Fox is also in the Super Smash Bros. series as a playable character. He has appeared in all Smash Bros. games to date.
 
====Falco Lombardi====
{{main|Falco Lombardi}}
[[Image:FalcoA2.jpg|left|thumbnail|Falco Lombardi.]]
Falco Lombardi (ファルコ・ランバルディ, Faruko Ranbarudi?) is an expert pilot and a friend of Fox. Falco resembles a falcon. He is named after both Falco, an Austrian musician, and Carlo Lombardi, special effects artist in Hollywood. Falco is voiced by Hisao Egawa in the Japanese versions of the series, Bill Johns in the English version of Star Fox 64, Ben Cullum in Star Fox Adventures, Mike Madeoy in Star Fox: Assault, and Dex Manley in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
 
Falco often joins and leaves the Star Fox team throughout the series of games and is seen as somewhat of a sidekick to Fox as they are very close. After Star Fox 64, Falco leaves the team, because of boredom and tiredness (though also because of the events of "Star Fox: Farewell, Beloved Falco", see below.), but returns at the end of Star Fox Adventures. During the final battle against Andross in Adventures, Falco comes to Fox's rescue. Leon Powalski of the Star Wolf team is considered to be his rival.
 
His long absence from the team is chronicled in the Nintendo comic Star Fox: Farewell, Beloved Falco, which was bundled with Star Fox Adventures in Japan.[citation needed] In this comic Falco gets a call for help from Katt so he heads out, and Fox follows soon after. At the end of the comic Falco decides to stay with Katt and Fox goes back to the rest of the team with out him. Falco has also appeared in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl as a playable character.
 
====Slippy Toad====
{{main|Slippy Toad}}
[[Image:Normal Slippy2.jpg|thumbnail|Slippy Toad]]
Slippy Toad (スリッピー・トード, Surippī Tōdo) is a longtime friend of Fox. Young, kind, and intelligent, he serves as the inventor of the team. Slippy's father, Beltino Toad, the Research Director for the Cornerian Defense Forces, invents and constructs many inventions for the team, including the Blue Marine and the Landmaster. After the Aparoid race is destroyed in Star Fox: Assault, he temporarily withdraws from the Star Fox team. However, when Fox needs backup in Star Fox: Command, he comes to his assistance again. He is currently engaged to a frog named Amanda, and in two endings in Star Fox Command they have children together.
 
Slippy makes a cameo appearance in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as one of Solid Snake's contacts on his Codec (via hacked transmission) whenever Snake faces Falco. He gives advice to Snake about Falco.
 
He is voiced by Kyouko Tonguu in the Japanese version of the series, Lyssa Browne in the English version of Star Fox 64, Chris Seavor in Star Fox Adventures, and Mike McAuliffe in Star Fox Assault and Super Smash Bros Brawl.
 
====Krystal====
{{main|Krystal}}
[[Image:Krystalgun.jpg{{!}}left|thumbnail{{!}}Krystal.]]
Krystal (クリスタル, Kurisutaru) is the sole survivor of her doomed home planet, Cerinia. She makes her first appearance in the series in Star Fox Adventures, where in search of answers to her planet's destruction, and the death of her parents, she comes across a distress signal from the planet Sauria. Fox allows Krystal to become a full-time member of the Star Fox team, but she leaves heartbroken soon after, as Fox fears for her safety. Various different paths and endings are available in Star Fox Command; some show Krystal returning to the team and to Fox himself, defecting to Star Wolf or the Cornerian Army, or even abandoning Lylat altogether due to public ridicule and adopting a new identity under the name Kursed, changing so drastically that Fox fails to recognize her when the two cross paths on a planet named Kew two years later.
 
Krystal was originally designed to be a main character of Dinosaur Planet, before Nintendo turned the project into a Star Fox title. Her original design was that of a 16-year-old orphaned feline, who was raised by a wizard named Randorn. When Fox became the main character of Adventures, Krystal was redesigned into her present form as a 19-year-old orphaned vixen, and her role in the game became less central. In the English version of the series, Krystal has a British accent and is voiced by Estelle Ellis in Adventures, and Alésia Glidewell in Assault. In Japanese, she is voiced by Aya Hara.
 
====R.O.B. 64====
{{main|R.O.B. 64}}
[[Image:Robadventures.jpg|thumbnail|ROB 64.]]
ROB 64 (ナウス64, Nausu Rokujūyon, NUS64) is the robotic operator of Star Fox's mothership, the Great Fox. ROB's name may be a reference to the NES accessory R.O.B. The 64 is derived from the console of his first appearance, the Nintendo 64. ROB's Japanese name, "NUS", stands for "Nintendo Ultra Sixty-four", the original name of the Nintendo 64 system, and is part of the serial number of all N64 components: the controller, for example, is NUS-005.
 
ROB has the ability to completely control the Great Fox, piloting it, providing information to the team, and aiding them with items and vehicles. After the first Great Fox is destroyed in Assault, he returns in Star Fox Command, piloting the new version of the Great Fox. On some paths in the game, ROB joins Star Wolf when no "hero" character is available. ROB is voiced by Daisuke Sakaguchi in the Japanese version of Star Fox 64 and Yusuke Numata in the Japanese version of Star Fox: Assault. He is voiced by Dex Manley in the English version of Assault.
 
===Future Members===
[[Image:NewStarFox.png|thumbnail|The New team lead by Marcus McCloud.]]
====Marcus McCloud====
{{main|Marcus McCloud}}
Marcus McCloud is the son of Fox McCloud and his wife Krystal. Following the defeat of the Anglars, Fox and the rest of the Star Fox Team vote to disband the squadron following, with Fox, immediately upon destroying the Anglars, departing the Great Fox forever and meeting Krystal again on Sauria, intending to re-build the relationship he ended due to Fox forcing Krystal to leave the team due to his fears for her safety. Krystal accepted Fox's advances, and they soon married and settled down to a quiet life. The rest of the Star Fox team went their own ways as well.
 
At some point, the Fox and Krystal had Marcus. In terms of appearance, Marcus physically appears much like his father, and inherits his strong sense of leadership, though inherits his mother's blue fur & eyes (and possibly her magic). Marcus was raised by his parents, becoming a fine young pup, and they enjoy a happy life together.
 
When he is old enough, Marcus enrolls in the Cornerian Flight Academy, intending to follow in his father's footsteps. Marcus soon proves that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree during his training. His flying skill, a gift passed down through his family, is considered "unbelievable".

====Lucy Hare====
{{main|Lucy Hare}}
Lucy Hare (ルーシー・ヘア, Rūshī Hea) debuts in Star Fox Command, and is Peppy Hare's only daughter. Her mother, Vivian Hare (ビビアン・ヘア, Bibian Hea), died shortly after the Lylat Wars due to an illness. She is a bit of a tomboy, but is still very polite to her elders. Although pleased with her job as an astrophysics teacher on the planet Fichina, she does wish to become an expert pilot, like her father. It is said as well that she and Krystal are good friends. In some missions, she fights the Anglar attackers in her aircraft, the Sky Bunny (スカイバニー, Sukaibanī), armed with plasma lasers and a single lock. In one of the endings, her daughter becomes a member of the new Star Fox team, led by Marcus McCloud, Fox's son.
 
====Amanda====
{{main|Amanda}}
Amanda (アマンダ, Amanda) is Slippy's fiancée, who first appears in Star Fox Command. They meet two years prior to the events of Star Fox Command, and instantly fall in love. Amanda occasionally helps the team out in various missions, and pilots the Tadpole (タッドポール, Taddopōru), a ship armed with a multi-lock. She considers herself more of the leader in her relationship with Slippy, and always wants to be on his side during a fight. In two endings, she and Slippy settle down with children, one of whom joins Fox and Krystal's son, Marcus McCloud, as well as Lucy Hare's daughter and Falco Lombardi himself in forming a new Star Fox team. In another ending, she herself joins the Star Fox team to be close to Slippy.
