'''Kazooie''' the Red-Crested Breegull is one of the two protagonists on which the [[Banjo-Kazooie series]] centers. She resides in [[Banjo]]'s backpack most of the time, poking her head out only to berate various other characters with insults and jabbering. She does leave the backpack on occasion, but her friendship (and rent free apartment) with Banjo always leads her back eventually.

== Name origin ==
==Name origin==
Kazooie's name, like Banjo's, is based on a musical instrument: the [[wikipedia:Kazoo|kazoo]]. Incidently, Kazooie herself is known to be an experienced kazoo player, although the only time Kazooie was ever seen playing her kazoo was during the introduction theme in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''. Oddly enough, Kazooie's kazoo barely resembles an actual kazoo and looks more like a [[wikipedia:Bugle (instrument)|bugle]]. Interestingly, whether coincidence or not, the term "bugle" is phonetically similar to "breegull."

[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge|A few months afterwards]], [[Klungo]] devised a plan for Grunty to escape her rock prison and go back in time, preventing Banjo and Kazooie from ever meeting. Kazooie was taken back in time by [[Mecha-Grunty]], and because of an odd glitch in the space-time continuum, this would prevent her past self from meeting up with Banjo. Luckily, Banjo followed Grunty with Mumbo's help and rescued Kazooie. The two of them proceeded to beat Grunty and restore the timeline.

Convinced that they hadn't seen the last of Grunty, Kazooie insisted that she and Banjo continue practicing their moves (and secretly hoping to get into the Smash Bros. cast). [[Banjo-Tooie|In 2000]], her hunch proved correct when Grunty's sisters rescued her and blasted [[Banjo's House]] in he process, killing Bottles. Kazooie was instantly pumped to get on another adventure, and while [[Jamjars]] was every bit as annoying as his dead brother, she learned to [[Split-up]] from Banjo and lay the hurt on the witch's minions herself. After defeating Grunty a third time and reviving everyone who died, the duo went into "rest mode" once more.

Kazooie, however, wasn't pleased with doing nothing. She jabbered constantly at Banjo to keep practicing moves. But Banjo flatly refused this time, and decided to start fixing up his house for a few weeks. After that, the pair slipped into a depressing lifestyle of boredom, Xbox&nbsp;and pizza.
