The main character of the ''[[F-Zero]]'' franchise and probably the most well known, thanks to ''[[Super Smash Bros.]].'' Captain Falcon is a bounty hunter from Port Town in his mid 30's who's said to be one of the best bounty hunters in the universe. He lives on a chain of islands off the coast of Port Town (with F-Zero tracks of their own for practice) and lives in solitude due to the number of enemies he's made from bounty hunting. He is also seen having a small facility in Mute City in ''GX'' where he trains via virtual reality.

[[Informed Ability|However, the Blue Falcon is usually ranked 10th or so in most of the races it appears in when controlled by AI]]. As a cameo, it has appeared in many a Nintendo game, most notably ''[[Mario Kart]] Wii'' as a lightweight kart and several ''[[Animal Crossing]]'' games as a decoration.

His machine is the '''Golden Fox''', ranked [[Meaningful Name|D-A-D]], weighing 1,420kgs ([[Retcon|originally 1,020]]) and was passed down to him by his father. Its lightweight construction and weak grip makes it ideal for drifting through corners, even if its high speed and top-notch boost make it a touch difficult to control.
