In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', she displays a high level of intelligence as she built the Gruntbots who assist her and the vehicles she uses. Unlike previous games, Gruntilda does not value upgrading her personnel appearance, but to have Spiral Mountain once again in her grasp and be its' ruler. | In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', she displays a high level of intelligence as she built the Gruntbots who assist her and the vehicles she uses.

== | ==Trivia== | ||
Gruntilda is | *All of Gruntilda's sisters have only appeared in one game so far: [[Brentilda]] has only appeared in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', while [[Mingella]] and [[Blobbelda]] have only appeared in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''. | ||
*Gruntilda's personality and actions resemble those of evil witches and other characters in fictional works. Her reason for kidnapping [[Tooty]] for her beauty is similar to the [[wikipedia:Evil Queen|Evil Queen's]] motives in the tale of [[wikipedia:Snow White and the Seven Dwarves|Snow White and the Seven Dwarves]]. | |||
*She also bears resemblance to the [[wikipedia:Wicked Witch of the West|Wicked Witch of the West]] from [[wikipedia:L.Frank Baum|L. Frank Baum's]] ''[[wikipedia:The Wonderful Wizard of Oz|The Wonderful Wizard of Oz]]'' and its adaptations. | |||
*Additionally, her use of [[Dingpot|a cauldron]] and her two wicked sisters, [[Mingella]] and [[Blobbelda]], resemble the wicked witches from [[wikipedia:William Shakespeare|William Shakespeare's]] ''[[wikipedia:Macbeth|Macbeth]]''. | |||
*Gruntilda does not rhyme in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'' as a condition to enlisting her sisters' help, even after she kills them in her [[Tower of Tragedy]] quiz. | |||
*Gruntilda seems very fond of game shows, as she hosts three of them at the end of ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', and ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]''. However, [[L.O.G.]] replaces her as the game show host in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''. | |||
*A running gag in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'' is that one of Gruntilda's eyes pops out on occasions. | |||
*In ''[[Project Dream]]'', Gruntilda was intended to be a giant instead of an evil witch. | |||
