-{{cleanup|wikia section}}
+*[[Edson]] - A young adventurer who grew up in a village, but decided to leave and go to the "big wide world". He was planned to be the protagonist of the game.
-*'''[[Edson]]''' - The main character for the SNES version. He got himself in trouble with a crew of pirates lead by Captain Blackeye.
+*[[Madeleine]] - A blond woman who wore a white dress and was Edson's girlfriend.
-*'''[[Madeleine]]''' - Edson's girlfriend
+*[[Banjo]] - Originally a minor supporting character who eventually became the protagonist of the final product, ''Banjo-Kazooie'', alongside [[Kazooie]].
-*'''[[Banjo]]''' - He would have originally been a secondary character.
+*[[Captain Blackeye]] - An evil pirate who was planned to be the main antagonist, having his own crew and ship.
-*'''[[Captain Blackeye]]''' - The infamous captain of a pirate crew and main antagonist of the game. He later appeared as a character in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'' at [[Jolly's|Jolly's Bar]] in [[Jolly Roger's Lagoon]]. He repeats the words "Once, I had a dream...", which may be a reference to his original role.
+*Grim Jim, Flintlock Jock and Big Belly - Three of Captain Blackeye's crew members.
-*'''Grim Jim''' - One of Blackeye's crew members
+*Captain Cockeye - A captain who acted as a mentor to Edson, and was described as a "good pirate and a bit of a mad professor".<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20140822043530/http://grantkirkhope.com/cockeye.html ''Dream Compositions Cockeye'']</ref>
-*'''Flintlock Jock''' - A member of Captain Blackeye's band of pirates
+*Unnamed Rabbit - Planned to replace Edson after he started "losing his edge", but was eventually also replaced by Banjo.
-*'''Cockeye''' - A "good pirate and a bit of a mad professor", as Grant Kirkhope would put it.
+*Dinger - Edson's dog who followed him around and had many abilities that aided him during the game, being found inside a hole near the start and rescued by Edson. As the team felt Dinger was getting too many abilities and making Edson limited in comparison, they decided to give the protagonist all the abilities back.
-*'''Big Belly''' - An obese pirate who was part of Captain Blackeye's crew on the ''Mudplugger. ''He likes to eat and drink a lot.
+*[[Tiptup]] - Planned to be a minor supporting character, much like Banjo originally.
-*'''A strange, unintelligent rabbit''' - This character was going to be a secondary character in the SNES version, but he was later put under consideration for the main protagonist, when Edson was considered "too generic" and was scrapped.
+*Unnamed Dinosaur - A large dinosaur who walked through a room, shaking everything, making leaves fall and potentially damaging Edson. It eventually became [[Stomponadon]].
-*'''Piccolo''' - Piccolo would have been Banjo's girlfriend, and her name would match her musical instrument.
+*Bully - A troll who "was like the Troll guarding the bridge in the story of '{{wp|Three Billy Goats Gruff|Billy Goat's Gruff}}'".<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20140822043541/http://grantkirkhope.com/bully.html ''Dream Compositions Bully'']</ref>
-*'''[[Grunty]]/The Giant''' - Gruntilda was originally meant to be a giant in the N64 version, before becoming a wicked witch
-*'''Dinger''' - A dog who was one of the secondary characters that was under consideration for being the main protagonist when Edson was scrapped. At the beginning of ''Land of Giants'', he was a companion of Edson.
-*'''[[Tiptup]]''' - He was also going to be a secondary character, much like Banjo was.
-*'''[[Kazooie]]''' - Not originally scheduled to appear as a character in this one, but she appeared as a baby bird in a nest found and looked after by Ella, who first found the nest along with her egg and parents. The mother hatched Kazooie and the chick said her first word, "Bweee!!!" because she first appeared as a baby breegull.
-*[[Stomponadon]] - Similar to his appearance in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', he stomped on players causing health loss. The clear aim was to avoid him. The threat of attack from Stomponadon in ''Land of Giants'' was signalled by the camera shaking and leaves falling.
-Other minor characters, such as Bully, were also recently revealed by Grant Kirkhope on his website.
