Peppy Hare is a fictional character from the Star Fox series. He is one of the original members of the Star Fox team. He is the oldest and longest serving Star Fox member. He is color-coded in red in Star Fox 64. In Star Fox 64, Peppy is well known for his frequent use of the phrase "Do a Barrel Roll!" He is telling Fox to rotate his Arwing either clockwise or counter-clockwise to avoid enemy fire. This particular phrase has created popularity on GameFAQs and YTMND. He has since retired from flying Arwings, but still gives advice to the team during missions.
In the time before the original Star Fox, James McCloud was captured by Andross, and Pigma Dengar betrayed the team. After the investigation, Peppy narrowly escaped Venom, and informed Fox McCloud about his father's fate. He decided to stay with the Star Fox team when Fox McCloud became the team's leader. In Star Fox Adventures, Peppy studied Fox's mission, the locations in Dinosaur Planet, and the ancient records of the planet. He displays the descriptions of the locations and their maps. At the end of Star Fox Adventures, Peppy showed Fox a message from Krystal. Shortly thereafter, Krystal entered the Great Fox and reunited herself with Fox. After Star Fox Adventures, the Star Fox team repaired the Great Fox.
In Star Fox: Assault, Peppy has a near-death experience when he and ROB crash the Great Fox into a shield on the Aparoid Homeworld.
