Fox McCloud is the main protagonist of the entire Star Fox franchise. He stars in the Rare-developed title, Star Fox Adventures. In it, Fox is sent on a mission by General Pepper to save Dinosaur Planet.
History[]
Eight years after the events of the Lylat Wars, a way more cocky and edgy Fox McCloud calmed the conflict on Dinosaur Planet (later penned as "Sauria") by teaming with Prince Tricky of the EarthWalker tribe and returning the SpellStones to their rightful positions in two of the planet's temples, liberating a confined Krystal by returning the five remaining Krazoa Spirits to their rightful positions.
He was forbidden from bringing his blaster into the mission by Pepper as a condition to accepting the mission, as Pepper believed that they needed to solve the mission without resorting to brute force, albeit he nonetheless managed to make do with a Staff that he found near the landing site which pristinely belonged to Krystal.
During his first visit to Krazoa Palace he realised that the Warp Stone could not warp dinosaurs, Fox made a sarcastic joke saying that's a shame but Tricky could still hear him. When Fox first met Krystal, he was captivated by her beauty until Peppy snapped him out of it, thwarting the orchestrations of General Scales who tried hurting the Queen CloudRunner where Fox intervenned. He eventually faced off against General Scales one last time, however Andross intervened and forced General Scales to give up the last spirit that was inside him, and vanquishing a reawakened Andross, who was abaft the troubles on Sauria.
After that, he returned to the Great Fox, and General Pepper paid him for preserving Sauria. After Fox and Falco Lombardi (who had left after the events of the Titanian incident) were reunited, Krystal apologized to Fox after she regretted from taking back her staff coldly from him and bitter early joined the Star Fox Team. Fox became shy that she was the first female fox to join the team. ROB64 made a joke saying that his sensors indicate that Fox's temperature is rising. Immediately afterwards, the Star Fox Team ostensibly utilized the money that Fox received to rehabilitate the Great Fox, as well as oiling ROB 64 and upgrading the Arwings and Landmasters.
Personality[]
Fox is the team leader of Star Fox. He took over the team after his father was betrayed by Pigma Dengar and captured by Andross, who was expelled from Corneria for his crimes. Fox is a mercenary, although he has been willing to save the world. He can get very annoyed and upset of Tricky, especially when they first met each other, after Tricky joked if he stood in the hot springs right now he'll be frozen to death and became very annoyed of Tricky being kidnapped twice or getting himself into trouble. He is also shown to be concerned about Krystal (who was trapped in her crystal prison by andross and General Scales) and fell completely in love with her.
However, Fox could be easily manipulated and fooled, as was the case when Andross who disguised himself as a Krazoa God to force him to find the five remaining hidden spirits so he could be reborn, he's shown to have fear, when taking on the Test of Fear if Fox fails the test Fox will hear a demonic laugh (assuming it Andross laughing at his pain and suffering).
Fox shows a fierce loyalty to his friends and was shown to be upset when he had to leave Tricky behind near the end of the game and promised to return to Dinosaur Planet to visit him in the future and telling him not to let him wait too long.
He can be considered judgmental of people's actions such as Krystal when she was freed from her prison and took back her stuff which it wasn't his to begin with but only temporary (but later she apologizes for her rudeness). He can also be shy, as can be seen with his attraction to Krystal.
