Fay is a girlish dog who, along with Miyu, were drafted from the Cornerian Army to join the Star Fox team exclusively in Star Fox 2. Her appearance suggests that she may be a Poodle or Cocker Spaniel. She is the daughter of an aristocratic family and is fighting to save her planet.[1]
Appearance[]
Fay is a white dog with blue eyes. She wears a light blue jumpsuit, hot pink gloves, red scarf and gray jacket and boots similar to the ones worn by her teammates, as well as a red bow in her hair. Fay is taller than all of her teammates, excluding Falco.
Notes[]
After the original cancellation of Star Fox 2, many elements were carried over to later games. It is possible that Bill Grey, an off-white dog ally of Star Fox, served as a replacement of Fay.
In an earlier prototype of Star Fox 2 (or "Star Fox II") seen in magazine screenshots, a white goat appeared as the sixth playable character, but was replaced by Fay later in development.[2]
A character appears in Nintendo Power's Star Fox comic (Act 9, Here Comes the Son, and Act 11, Hello, Goodbye) that looks just like Fay, except with beige fur. It is unknown if this is intentional or just a coincidence.
According to her artwork, she is the second-tallest member of the six-team Star Fox, after Falco.
Lead programmer Dylan Cuthbert named Fay after a preteen crush on his next-door neighbor.
Fans often give her the last name Spaniel, despite her true last name not being confirmed yet.
Fay may be biologically related to General Pepper.
