Slippy Toad

AFFILIATION Star Fox ROLE Engineer AGE 18

INTEL Slippy Toad is a talented flight engineer and technician who employs his skills as a member of Star Fox—a combat squad for hire.

The son of Beltino Toad—a renowned scientist working for Space Dynamics—Slippy began studying at his father's elbow from an early age. He went on to enroll in the Academy, where he met and formed a friendship with Fox McCloud—the current leader of Star Fox. Though instructors at the school indicate that Slippy's skills as a pilot "left room for improvement," they report he exhibited a "near genius" level of aptitude in engineering and mechanical design.

Following his stint at the Academy, Slippy is said to have followed Fox and signed up with the Star Fox team. Reports indicate that, since joining the team, he has proven himself to be an invaluable asset.

Slippy has leveraged his expertise in scanning technologies to help the team better assess targets during battle and has modified Star Fox's Arwings, enhancing numerous aspects of their performance. Likewise, Slippy is rumored to be modifying other vehicles in a manner that may be of interest to the Defense Force. Slippy's responsibilities further extend to maintaining the team's somewhat outdated ROB64 unit as well as overseeing the readiness of Star Fox's flagship—the Great Fox.

ASSESSMENT Cheery, optimistic, and at times naïve, Slippy's youthful enthusiasm has been known to lead to impulsive—perhaps even reckless—behavior. That said, reports indicate that this same unapologetic positivity lends the Star Fox crew some much-needed camaraderie.
