Like Slippy, General Pepper has been portrayed in several different ways that are not entirely consistent depending on which Star Fox game we are discussing. He has been everything from an actual threatening military commander (Star Fox 1) to a generic “do gooder guy” who casually gives exposition and orders (Star Fox 64), to a dopey borderline senile incompetent old man (Star Fox Assault). For Event Horizon I really do want to lean into the notion that the General is not a complete fool. In Event Horizon’s portrayal of the galaxy there are many competing and petty warlords, and Pepper is yet another one of them. I’m not going for something outright malevolent or evil, but General Pepper should come off as more interested in his military ambitions and victories than the actual well being of the people under his command. As for his voice and accent, that has also changed radically between Star Fox games. I’ll likely be open to the voice actor’s input and I would expect this character to end up more different in Event Horizon than from his official appearances. I would prefer someone more advanced in age in voice him, though he is not elderly yet.
