Star Fox: Alliance
The Lylat System, known for it's huge production of fuel, precious stones, and machines, has become one of the most powerful systems in the galaxy. Thanks mostly to General Pepper, leader of the Cornerian Army. He led the Cornerian army against the evil scientist, Andross, in the infamous Lylat Wars. After the Lylat Wars, Lylat was rocketed into corporate bliss when a rare element was found deep within the ground of the poisonous planet, Venom.
Though very dangerous, the new element proved to be an excellent fuel for powering the many machines in the universe today. Minimal pollution and more than 50 times as efficient as ordinary jet fuel, "Vyros" soon become the major cash crop of the Lylat System. Though General Pepper could have used Vyros for much more "beneficial" reasons, he did not, and maintained balance throughout the galaxy.
But all good things must come to an end. Pepper soon died a gruesome but mysterious death that was withheld from the public by the Cornerian Army. The residents of Lylat mourned greatly for their loss of their excellent leader. General Pepper's nephew, Radius Grimclaw took advantage of the weak state the system was in. Using their fear and sadness for the loss of General Pepper, he promised to continue his uncle's legend, and would make Lylat the most powerful system ever. The Lylatians had nowhere else to look to, so they fell to Grimclaw's reign. Promised a powerful system that would rule all others...
Little did they know such power came with much suffering and pain. The Cornerian Army was relinquished and the legendary Star Fox team that destroyed Andross were exhiled to deserted planets, never to be mentioned again. Grimclaw enslaved many Cornerians and forced them to work in the mines of Venom, producing more and more Vyros to create something darker than Lylat had ever seen before...
Grimclaw found a way to use Vyros as an enhancement for his own army. He tested on many former Cornerian Army soldiers, filling their vains with the deadly poison, making them bigger, stronger, and worst of all, completely emotionless. They would do Grimclaw's bidding with no questions asked, allowing him to reign terror on whoever he sees fit. With no one to stop him, he became a mortal god among the systems, all feared to stand up to him and his relentless army.
Though, all hope is not yet lost. A small resistance formed on the planet Katina. Led by an unknown rogue, the resistance attempts to foil the plans of Grimclaw, and return peace to Lylat. They try so hard, but barely seem to get anywhere. Their only chance is to call for help, a plea to a legend, like peasants to the gods. Star Fox must be reunited!
