Likewise, Randorn's home, Warlock Mountain, was replaced by Krazoa Palace. When Randorn was cut from the game, Nintendo replaced him with an EarthWalker who was also hurt and sent Krystal to the first Krazoa Test. When Krystal meets General Scales, he says that he had "a nice little chat", showing that Randorn would've been a powerful and dangerous enemy to General Scales, should he have attempted to take over Dinosaur Planet. Because of his power and kindness, General Scales attacks his home, Warlock Mountain, where he is met with EarthWalker warriors who were sent to protect him, it doesn't end well for the warriors. The next morning, he went to look for survivors and found Krystal, realizing what he did, he adopted her and told her that he found the camp in the state it was now. As he wandered through the forests around the Wolven Tribe (Wolves), he found a camp of the hostile Vixon Tribe (Foxes) and overcame with anger, killing everyone at the camp but Krystal. When his first-born son died in a war, he sent him to, he couldn't handle the grief and left his home and Sabre behind. Randorn is a wizard who was Sabre's father and adopted Krystal. Sabre's name may have come from Sabre Wulf, the titular character of a game Rare made back when they were Ultimate Play the Game. Sabre's voice and personality was performed by Steve Malpass, who carried this over to Fox, creating a stark contrast in Fox's character compared to earlier games. This is evident when Sabre makes commands and grunts in Krystal's voice as well as his HUD having a picture of Krystal, instead of himself. In the N64 development of Dinosaur Planet, both Sabre and Krystal ran on the same model engine, possibly due to similar lines and animations both characters would say and do in-game. This changed when Dinosaur Planet merged with the Star Fox series, leaving General Scales as the only character with a sword. Sabre was to be armed with a sword, meaning Krystal would have kept the Staff as her own weapon during gameplay. A royal knight of the planet Animus, Sabre was the son of a wizard named Randorn and Krystal was his adopted sister. Sabre was originally to be the secondary playable protagonist, paired up with Tricky. Unlike the original game, Krystal never uses her Staff during her playable period, losing it at the beginning of the game, and retrieving it before the final boss. While Sabre was cut from the game, Krystal and her staff made it through to Adventures. Krystal's reason for boarding the Galleon in Dinosaur Planet was to save the queen CloudRunner's daughter, who was caged near the head of the ship, while in Adventures, the young CloudRunner is still there, but merely serves as a tutorial for the talk button, while Krystal's reasons for boarding the ship are unknown.īoth Sabre and Krystal had separate weapons, Sabre had a sword and Krystal had a compact staff. Krystal originally was the main protagonist and one of two playable characters, paired up with Princess Kyte. Other earlier versions of characters and enemies were also seen in the previews, including General Scales, the SharpClaws, the Galdon, GrubTubs, the wounded EarthWalker and Scales' flying SharpClaw Galleon. It also appeared that both of the main characters had their own weapons: Krystal wielded a staff, while Sabre used a sword. To switch between the two, the player would use characters known as SwapStones (which later became the WarpStone). The gameplay allowed for the two characters to be used in different locations and sections of the game. They would have been accompanied by their respective sidekicks, Tricky (for Sabre) and Kyte (for Krystal). The two main characters would have been Sabre (replaced by Fox), who was the son of a wizard named Randorn, and Krystal, who was Randorn's adopted daughter (and thus Sabre's adopted sister). What little details about the plot, characters and settings present show that the game was still quite similar to the later Adventures. Rare had previously released many pieces of artwork, screenshots, trailers and even soundtrack material before this decision was made and many of these can still be found today. What little is known about the game is that development was in progress sometime around 19.
