Homeworld	Commands G.F.S. Olympus, seen briefly on Pirate Homeworld
Gender	Male
Affiliation	Galactic Federation

Fleet Admiral Castor Dane (voiced by Timothy Patrick Miller) is the commander of the G.F.S. Olympus. He is known for his utmost dedication to protecting the Galactic Federation from its enemies. He is stern, aggressive, and has a strong dislike for the Space Pirates. A rumor exists about him that says the Space Pirates killed his parents at an early age, orphaning him as a child and that he still seeks revenge against the Space Pirates for the death of his parents.

Samus Aran meets with the Admiral along with Ghor, Rundas, and Gandrayda aboard the G.F.S. Olympus. He tells them that Aurora Unit 313 has been stolen by Space Pirates, and that a virus has been planted into the Aurora Unit network. He wants them to deliver a vaccine to purge the virus, though is cut short of his speech when Space Pirates attack the Olympus fleet.

Dane took part in the Federation's invasion of the Pirate Homeworld. This mostly involved giving orders behind the scenes, however he escorted a group of Demolition Troopers on to the planet's surface. He also led the attack on Phaaze from the flagship Olympus.

[edit] Trivia

• If the rumors about losing his parents to Space Pirates at a young age are true, then his dedication to fighting the Pirates is not unlike that of Samus Aran (as she herself was orphaned, being the sole survivor of a Space Pirate raid).
• He has shown himself to be an involved leader, as evident by escorting a group of Demolition Troopers on the surface of the Pirate Homeworld.
• In concept art, he was originally depicted as a cyborg similar to that of a stereotypical pirate.
