His second form (considered his true form in Star Fox 64) is that of a gigantic brain with two eyes connected by energy strands. Throughout the Star Fox games Andross appears in different forms, the most common of which is that of a giant disembodied head accompanied by two giant disembodied hands (as seen above). Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow. He has also been portrayed as a charismatic speaker (which can explain why many were willing to follow him) and a military genius. Even as a ghost, he can still control his creations. He is rumored to be able the influence others without them being aware of it, such as General Scales. Turning himself into a God-like creature bent on ruling the Lylat System, he also gained the power to control his experiments as bioweapons.Īfter his defeat at the hand of Star Fox, his god-like essence survived. It has been stated that he experimented on many bioforms, including himself. In the Star Fox games, Andross is a gifted scientist and has many powers, some god-like in nature. Another possibility is the he has a god-complex, in which he believes that he himself is not bound to ideas of what's good and what's evil. One possibility is that Andross himself doesn't think what he does is truly evil and may even put the blame on the Cornerian Government whom he feels betrayed him. Thus Andross hid his secret device on Titania where no one would ever think to look, leaving behind one of his bioweapons to guard over the device.Īndross shift from good to evil is never explained by Krystal (she herself was almost killed by a murderous Andross in Adventures). After Andross fought with the "Star Fox Team" (apparently in the original Star Fox), he dedicated his remaining days to planet Venom, wanted to leave some sort of legacy. Andross never asked the Cornerian government for money or kickbacks of any kind. Krystal however states, that Andross's motives were pure and that he just wanted to continue his research. Up to this point it was always assumed that Andross ignored an order from Pepper to halt his dangerous experiments and was banished to Venom as punishment (according to Star Fox 64 and Fox himself). Their infighting was the actually precursor to the Lylat Wars. But he and Pepper were like oil and water. Before Andross's exile to Venom, he was Corneria's Chief Science Officer and was also a close colleague of Star Fox franchise strategy guide/Characters/General Pepper. He was condemned to a life of isolation and loneliness. Andross was deemed to be a dangerous fanatic and banished to Venom. The device would make Venom a beautiful planet that could support life. According to her, a long time ago, Andross started developing a new machine. Krystal's information on Andross is more sympathetic towards Andross than Beltino's. The bioweapon supposedly contained Andross's DNA and causes living creatures to follow his orders. Beltino believes that Andross may be behind the Anglar's invasion referring to the events that happened on Venom years earlier (in Star Fox 64), Andross deployed a new bioweapon, using it to evolve himself and seize control of localized life-forms. It is later expanded on in Star Fox Command by comments made by Beltino Toad (Slippy's Father) and Krystal. Background & Legacy Īndross history & origins were first explained in Star Fox 64.
