Dingpot

Dingpot is a cauldron who is owned and abused by Grunty. He is very similar to the Magic Cauldrons of Gruntilda's Lair except for the fact that he seems to have a speech impediment. At the beginning of Banjo-Kazooie, Dingpot informs Grunty of Banjo's sister, Tooty, who is more beautiful than Grunty. This leads Grunty to Kidnap Tooty and start Banjo and Kazooie on their adventure. Dingpot is not seen any other times throughout the game until Banjo and Kazooie reach him at the top of Gruntilda's Lair, where he has a change of heart and decides to help the two. He then allows Banjo to jump inside him so he will be transported to the roof of Gruntilda's Lair.

In Banjo-Tooie, Dingpot resides in Cauldron Keep and is not seen in any other parts of the game. Instead of transporting Banjo and Kazooie to the final fight, he gives them a "Dingy" bonus which is simply refilling their eggs and feathers. It is unknown how Dingpot came to be at Cauldron Keep as he is not seen leaving with Grunty and her sisters.
