“Me treasure! Thank ye me hearties! Take this reward! I'm off ter spend, spend, spend!”
Captain Blubber, Banjo-Kazooie

Captain Blubber is a sea hippo and a recurring supporting character in the Banjo-Kazooie series.

History

Banjo Kazooie

In Banjo-Kazooie, Captain Blubber is found at Treasure Trove Cove, and is heard crying as he walks back and forth on the deck of his ship. When Banjo and Kazooie first talk to Captain Blubber, he tells them that his ship crashed, so he lost his treasure. Kazooie tells Captain Blubber to get it himself, but he responds by saying that he cannot swim (despite real world hippos having the natural ability to swim). When the duo retrieve both pieces of treasure, he rewards them with a Jiggy and leaves to go spend his gold.

Captain Blubber is later seen the ending, riding a "Ski-1000" waveracer in the sea.

Banjo-Tooie

A screenshot of Captain Blubber in Banjo-Tooie

In Banjo-Tooie, Captain Blubber owns a place named Blubber's Waveracer Hire in Jolly Roger's Lagoon. Like the previous game, Captain Blubber making burping sounds while talking.

When Banjo and Kazooie enter Captain Blubber's shop and talk to him, he tells them that his business is doing poorly because all of his waveracers were shipwrecked, and the last one was eaten by a Big Fish the day before. Banjo offers to lend him "a doubloon or two", but he refuses and offers them to buy his "last possession" for one doubloon. If Banjo and Kazooie accept, Blubber puts a crate in the middle of the shop; it contains a pair of Turbo Trainers. Captain Blubber then claims that he will go to Jolly's for their quiz night, where the winner is rewarded 1,000 doubloons. With this money, Captain Blubbers plans to buy a "fine new flying machine".

In the ending, Captain Blubber is seen riding the Saucer of Peril, which reveals that he won the quiz night. This is similar to the waveracer in Banjo-Kazooie's ending, because it is also an instance where Captain Blubber is riding an expensive vehicle that he bought.

Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge

In Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge, Captain Blubber appears as a younger version of himself called Little Blubber, and is found at Breegull Beach. He and his Pirate Scouts challenge Banjo and Kazooie to a game, where he holds a treasure chest with his ship. To win, Banjo must hold the chest for longer than Blubber and his crew. After being defeated in the game, Little Blubber gives the two a Jiggy.

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts

In Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, Captain Blubber appears in every world except LOGBOX 720 and Spiral Mountain. In Showdown Town, he stands in the Uptown area selling a Trapdoor Tower combination to the duo. It is also mentioned that he crashed the Saucer of Peril in the city.

In Banjoland, Captain Blubber takes the role of "The Deluded Ex-Mariner". He hosts challenges in Act 1 and 6 (although he does appear in other challenges hosted by other characters). In the first one, he asks for Banjo and Kazooie to protect Clanker's eyes from Gruntbots. Later, he warns the duo about Mr. Patch and requests that they defeat him again.

In Jiggoseum, Blubber acts as "The Water-Sports Enthusiast", hosting challenges in Acts 3 and 6. In the first one, he asks Banjo to show his strength by lifting bowling balls. Later, he asks the duo to light the Jiggosseum torch.

In Terrarium of Terror, Captain Blubber portrays "The Dashing Adventurer" called "Captain Flash McBlubber", hosting challenges in Acts 2 and 3. In the first one, he wants the duo to race against him so he can practice. Later, he requests that Banjo and Kazooie test his new vehicle, the "Super Sally".

At the ending, Captain Blubber is one of the characters that congratulate Banjo and Kazooie for acquiring ownership of Spiral Mountain and defeating Gruntilda.
