Wolf and his team were out while the hideout was infiltrated by the Star Fox team in their search for Pigma, but quickly returned after Fox destroyed the transfer gateways and gained control.
In addition he ordered his soldiers to shoot Pigma on sight should he dare come close to his hideout. In addition, Wolf himself had earlier kicked Pigma out of his team for wearing out his welcome with his greedy and distrustful nature, as well as Andrew for constant boasting and poor pilotage and hired the ace pilot Panther to take both their places. The hideout was inhabited mostly by criminals, bounty hunters, and former members or traitors of Andross's Empire. Years after the death of Andross, during the events of the Plight of Sauria, Wolf took control of the hideout close to Katina and Fichina, known as the Sargasso Space Zone, earning him the rank of lord. He had been defeated, thus failing Andross in his mission to destroy the Star Fox team. Wolf's ship and the rest of his teammate's ships were destroyed in a final fight with Fox and his friends. When the team arrived seconds after Star Fox's arrival, Wolf told Fox to not get too cocky (alluding to Fox's eagerness to fight Andross). The injuries were relatively minor, with Wolf himself simply necessitating a few bandages. Star Wolf appeared to have severe injuries before the battle, or life-support systems needed to pilot the advanced Wolfen II, or even both. With one last chance, Wolf was gifted with the Wolfen II along with his other teammates to defend Venom from the Star Fox team's advancement into Andross's palace. However, they failed again in another dogfight, this time suffering great injuries. Upon arrival, Wolf told Fox that playtime was over. Star Wolf was then ordered to defend the satellite base Bolse and stop Fox from reaching his final destination. Star Wolf failed at delaying Star Fox, leading Wolf to seek revenge against Fox for his own personal reasons. A long dogfight ensued to create a diversion from Fox accomplishing his mission. Upon Star Wolf arriving, Wolf, in reference to the Star Fox team's discovery that the Fichina base was wired with a bomb, made clear he has no intention of letting the team diffuse the bomb. Before being able to diffuse the bomb, Wolf and his team approached from the planet's skies to defend the base in which the bomb had been planted. Fox McCloud and his team arrived not too long after receiving orders from General Pepper to take care of the situation, disposing of Andross's forces without delay. Wolf and his team played a major role in the Lylat Wars, when Andross hired the squadron to take down Star Fox, supplying them with his "Wolfen" class star fighters.ĭuring the bomb incident on the planet Fichina, Wolf was ordered by Andross to take down any form of rebellion by any means necessary – including the presence of Star Fox. When Wolf's team was hired by Andross to take down Star Fox, Wolf wanted nothing more than to fulfill these orders and prove himself to be as good, or better, than Fox McCloud. Wolf then sought to destroy Star Fox and protect Andross, so that he may be feared throughout the galaxy. He teamed up with Pigma Dengar, Andross's nephew, Andrew Oikonny, and found the mysterious Leon Powalski in a rough bar on Venom. Following the ape's exile, when Andross offered Wolf money to lead a mercenary team against Fox McCloud and the Star Fox team, he jumped at the chance to see Fox fail. It was believed that Wolf had somehow been involved in the disappearance of James McCloud, who was Fox's father.
Before the Lylat Wars, Team Star Fox and Star Wolf shared a long and bitter history with one another, despite mutual respect. It is also known that Wolf has been wanted by the Cornerian army for years, because of crimes such as larceny and treason. Not much is known about Wolf O'Donnell's early life other than he used to be the leader of a gang of space pirates, presumably the same pirates that duelled with the Cornerian army at Sector Z in a battle that left much space wreckage.
