Story ======== At last, the dirty green and blue smog was beginning to clear. Gruntilda stood at the topmost window of her lair, grinning wickedly down on her latest world. "Tiny creatures far below," she cackled, "which of you'll be first to go?" The witch rubbed her hands in glee at the prospect of putting her favorite invention to good use. It was her pride and joy: a machine that could suck the physical beauty from its victims for Gruntilda to absorb like a sponge! And it owuld certainly teach her cutesy sister Brentilda a lesson. How dare that interfering do-gooder inherit the family good looks and leave Gruntilda, well...slightly disadvantaged in that department? Hah! Not any more, gloated the witch, picking her nose smugly. Not any more. Turning back to the bubbling cauldron, Gruntilda began to cast the spell which would reassure her that she was, of course, the most wonderfully attractive creature in this bright new world... Meanwhile, Tooty was skipping home through the sunny green fields of Spiral mountain. As she reached the garden gate, a pair of blurry eyes that could only belong to her good friend Bottles popped up from a nearby molehill. "Morning, Tooty," he blinked, uncorking himself from the hole. "And what are your plans for this fine day?" Tooty jumped up and down excitedly, remembering Banjo's promise. "Oh!" she squealed. "When my lazy brother gets out of bed, we're going oon an adventure!" "That's nice." Bottles squinted up into the sky. "Hang on, isn't that your brother up there?" Tooty turned, and saw an odd shape swooping down toards them at high speed. "No, that can't be Banjo," she said, frowning, "I wonder who it is..." "Sweeter than me? prettier than me? Impossible!" Gruntilda was so furious at the cauldron's words that she could barely control her broomstick, screeching with anger every time her boots clipped the treetops. "As cute as me, you stupid pot? For her own sake, i hope she's not!" The witch sped recklessly on until her target finally came into view: staring up at her from a field far below was the innocent youg Honey Bear she's seen in the depths of that treacherous cauldron. Gruntilda cackled. "I need those looks far more than she, and finally perfect I shall be!" she cried, and sent teh broomstick into a deep dive. Kazooie popped out of the backpack as noise erupted just outside the window. "Banjo!" she squawked in alarm. "Banjo, wake up!" The honey bear froaned and pulled a pillow over his head. "Aww, Kazooie, it's too early," came his muffled voice. "This is no time to be lazy, furface!" trilled the breegull, swinginig anxiously to and fro. "We've got trouble!" Banjo yawned, rolled over-- and fell out of bed in suprise as Kazooie's struggles suddenly toppled both the backpack and its stand onto the floor with a crash. At the same time a sudden gust of wind blew open the curtains, and beneath the peals of manic laughted fading into the distance, banjo heard the helpless cries of a voice he recognized... Tooty! The bear gulped, realizing that this was definetly going to be one of ====================== 2. The Main Characters ====================== Banjo: This is the main person you will control throughout the course of the game. Although he is very lazy he is a good swimmer, and climber! Kazooie: Banjo's Loud-Mouth partner, Kazooie is always getting into trouble once in a while you will "control" Kazooie, but not that much, she only has a few moves. Her best talents are flying and picking fights. Tooty: Banjo's highly annoying, cute, blond sister. she get captured by Gruntilda and you must save her. Thankfully she only appears about twice in the game! Bottles: This near-sighted mole is of great use in the game, however i gind him as annoying as tooty is. Kazooie and Bottles make for some interesting conversations when they see each other, which is fun. Find bottles, and he will teach you a new move every time you find him! Brentilda: Gruntilda's sister, she will give you some tips, as well as tell you some facts about grunty. this seems useless, but is it?
