Tooty

"What's the party for? Grunty got away, so get back up there and finish the job!"

- Tooty

Tooty is Banjo's adorable younger sister. She has blond hair tied up in pigtails. Her favorite instrument is the piccolo. So far, she has only appeared in Banjo-Kazooie but she made cameos in Banjo-Tooie and Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts. She was hinted to appear in Nuts & Bolts, along with Brentilda, Quarrie, and Colliwobble, but this later turned out to be false.

In Banjo-Kazooie, Tooty lived in a house on Spiral Mountain with her brother Banjo. Unfortunately, she became the target of Gruntilda, who kidnapped her due to envy of her beauty. Banjo and Kazooie set out to rescue her before Grunty was able to steal her beauty. If the player gets a game over, Gruntilda will steal her beauty and Tooty will become a monster. She was rescued once Banjo and Kazooie won Grunty's Furnace Fun mini-game.

Project Dream
In Project Dream, Tooty was originally intended to be named "Piccolo" and was going to be Banjo's girlfriend. In the final battle with Grunty, Grunty fires a spell at Banjo as she falls off the top of the lair but the spell misses. That spell was meant to hit Banjo and turn him into a frog. Most likely, Tooty would have to carry Banjo to Mumbo to change him back.

There is also a picture of her in Banjo's House. In the beta version of Banjo-Kazooie, this picture was of Donkey Kong instead.1

Trivia

 * Originally the spell that Gruntilda casts during the final battle in Banjo-Kazooie was meant to hit Banjo and Kazooie, turning them into a frog. This would unlock a new part of the game where you would play as Tooty and get all the Mumbo Tokens to turn the duo back to normal. However, due to time constraints this part of the game was never implemented.
 * Tooty has two cameos in Banjo-Tooie as a poster of a missing person on a milk carton and as a picture inside Banjo's House.
 * The only cameos that Tooty has in Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts is of a sign in Showdown Town that reads "Tooty Fruity Fruit Shop", a picture of her in Banjo's House, and on the menu screen. She is also mentioned a few times throughout the game, such as when L.O.G. says he discarded a game world called "Tootyland", and on the score board in the Jiggoseum. She was also in the trivia questions at the end of the game.
