'''Brentilda Winkybunion''' is one of the 4 Winkybunion sisters. She is a pudgy witch who wears a pink dress, holds a wand, and hides in multiple places around [[Gruntilda's Lair]].
{{quote|Hello there, [[Banjo|young]] [[Kazooie|ones]]! I'm Brentilda, [[Gruntilda]]'s nicer sister. I've crept [[Gruntilda's Lair|down here]] to help you defeat the old hag, it's about time she was taught a lesson!|Brentilda|[[Banjo-Kazooie]]}}
'''Brentilda''' is a recurring character in the [[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|''Banjo-Kazooie'' series]].


Unlike her other 3 sisters, she is nice, beautiful, and doesn't plot to kill the duo. Brentilda made her first appearance in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''. In the game, she tells [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] disgusting yet helpful facts about her sister [[Gruntilda]]. Banjo and Kazooie use these facts for the ''Grunty Square'' questions on the [[Grunty's Furnace Fun]] board game.
==Physical traits==
Brentilda has green skin and pointed ears, much like her sisters Gruntilda, [[Mingella]], and [[Blobbelda]]. She dresses a pink oufit with sparkles, white sleeves and fairy wings. She has a white-blond hair and wears a golden diadem, thin-framed round glasses and holds a star-tipped wand.


The facts are different for every save file, each having 3 variations, so the player must hear what Brentilda has to say in their own file for the facts to be of any use. Brentilda will also give Banjo and Kazooie a full energy bar when they talk to her.
==Personality==
Brentilda is described many times as being much nicer than her sister Gruntilda, being "her opposite in every way, and a far better person for it."<ref>''Banjo-Kazooie'' instruction booklet, page 7</ref> She appears to be very kind towards people, referring to Banjo and Kazooie as "young ones" and "dears." She is not very polite when talking about her sister, however, calling her things such as "old hag," her "fat old sister" and "wartbags," among other names.  


Brentilda is absent from ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', but she makes a small cameo on a portrait in [[Pawno|Pawno's Emporium]]. Prior to the events of ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', Gregg Mayles, the game designer, revealed that the "Rubbish Video Game Character Police" had arrested Brentilda.
==Biography==
Brentilda is [[Gruntilda]]'s sister. Unlike her other two sisters, [[Blobbelda]] and [[Mingella]], Brentila is a kind fairy godmother rather than an evil witch.

While they may seem useless, these facts are required to be known in order to answer specific questions in [[Grunty's Furnace Fun]], near the end of the game. The pieces of information told by Brentilda will change in every save file, each having three possible variations picked at random. If Banjo and Kazooie's health bar is low when talking to her in a new area for the first time, she will refill it completely.
