History

He was trained at the Cornerian Academy and raised by his father James, who formed the first generation of Star Fox. But soon, the empire of the planet Venom was rising with its leader Andross. James was sent to investigate but was betrayed and killed by Pigma, a member of the Star Fox team and a turncoat working for Andross.
