'''Cheato''' is a recurring character in the [[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|''Banjo-Kazooie'' series]].


'''Cheato''' is [[Gruntilda]]'s magic spell book. He is found in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'' and ''[[Banjo-Pilot]]''. He is responsible for giving [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] [[Cheat Codes|cheat codes]] to use against [[Gruntilda]] in the first two games and unlocks extra features in ''[[Banjo-Pilot]]''.

In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', Cheato gives you three cheat codes: BLUE EGGS, RED FEATHERS, and GOLD FEATHERS. He will give these to Banjo and Kazooie if they can find him hidden in [[Gruntilda's Lair]]. The cheats can only be activated once Cheato is found.
Cheato makes his debut appearance in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''. Banjo and Kazooie encounter him while exploring [[Gruntilda's Lair]].

Cheato can be found in three different areas throughout the lair, which are hard to reach through regular means or require the use of a certain transformation. Each time Banjo and Kazooie find Cheato, he rewards them with a magic spell, or cheat, which allows them to significantly increase the maximum capacity of [[Blue Egg|egg]]s and [[feather]]s that they can carry. Gruntilda threatened to destroy Cheato for helping the duo, but she was defeated before any damage could be done.

==''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''==
In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', Gruntilda has carried out her threat of ripping out Cheato's pages for giving cheats to Banjo and Kazooie in the previous game. Banjo and Kazooie must find his [[Cheato Pages|missing pages]] and return them to him so that he can provide them with more cheat codes. For every five pages that are found, Cheato will give Banjo and Kazooie one cheat. The cheats can only be activated in the [[Code Room]] of [[Mayahem Temple]].


An interesting thing to note is how exactly Gruntilda managed to rip out Cheato's pages. She was previously trapped under a boulder for 2 years after the events of ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''. Later when she was freed by her sisters, she left [[Spiral Mountain]] without visiting her lair. It is possible that she may have ripped out Cheato's pages before kidnapping Kazooie in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]'', as it is set in between ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'' and ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''.
===''Banjo-Tooie''===
In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', Cheato is found in the remains of [[Gruntilda's Lair]] in [[Spiral Mountain]]. Gruntilda ripped out most of Cheato's pages because he provided cheats to Banjo and Kazooie in ''Banjo-Kazooie''. His pages are appropriately known as [[Cheato Page]]s, which are scattered around the [[Isle o' Hags]]. For every five pages that Banjo and Kazooie return to Cheato, he gives them one cheat. Banjo and Kazooie can activate cheats in [[Mayahem Temple]]'s [[Code Room]]. Furthermore, the duo can input "CHEATO," followed by any known cheat spelled backwards, to activate it regardless of whether the cheat has been unlocked or not.

Witch lost book, finders bear and bird are, spell they get!”
Cheato, Banjo-Kazooie

Cheato is a recurring character in the Banjo-Kazooie series.

Biography[edit]

Cheato is the magical spell book of Gruntilda. His main role is to provide cheat codes for Banjo and Kazooie to use against Gruntilda in the first two games.

Banjo-Kazooie[edit]

Cheato makes his debut appearance in Banjo-Kazooie. Banjo and Kazooie encounter him while exploring Gruntilda's Lair. Cheato is unhappy with Gruntilda's abusive behavior toward him, so he decides to abandon her and help Banjo and Kazooie instead. Cheato can be found in three different areas throughout the lair, which are hard to reach through regular means or require the use of a certain transformation. Each time Banjo and Kazooie find Cheato, he rewards them with a magic spell, or cheat, which allows them to significantly increase the maximum capacity of eggs and feathers that they can carry. Gruntilda threatened to destroy Cheato for helping the duo, but she was defeated before any damage could be done.

These are the three cheats that Cheato provides to Banjo and Kazooie:

  • BLUE EGGS - Near the Freezeezy Peak puzzle, Banjo must enter a tunnel as a crocodile after destroying the ice block.
  • RED FEATHERS - In the lava room, follow the small winding path to a small tunnel as the pumpkin.
  • GOLD FEATHERS - In the Rusty Bucket Bay entrance room, Banjo must raise the water level to 3 and then go to the alcove before time runs out.

Banjo-Tooie[edit]

In Banjo-Tooie, Cheato is found in the remains of Gruntilda's Lair in Spiral Mountain. Gruntilda ripped out most of Cheato's pages because he provided cheats to Banjo and Kazooie in Banjo-Kazooie. His pages are appropriately known as Cheato Pages, which are scattered around the Isle o' Hags. For every five pages that Banjo and Kazooie return to Cheato, he gives them one cheat. Banjo and Kazooie can activate cheats in Mayahem Temple's Code Room. Furthermore, the duo can input "CHEATO," followed by any known cheat spelled backwards, to activate it regardless of whether the cheat has been unlocked or not.

Banjo-Pilot[edit]

In Banjo-Pilot, Cheato has lost his pages again. The player can acquire them from finish races, and return them to Cheato in exchange for unlockable characters and features.

Nuts & Bolts[edit]
