He is a big beaver, with faded pink/red outer fur. His body fur is tan, he has green eyes, and buck-teeth.
Gnawty is a beaver who lives inside a [[Gnawty's Lodge|house]] located within the [[Click Clock Wood Tree]]. He has various roles throughout the different seasons of [[Click Clock Wood]]. In Spring, he is inside the river in front of a rock that is blocking the entrance to his home. Due to the water, [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] cannot break the boulder. In Summer, the river is dry, allowing the duo to break the rock. However, the entrance to it is very steep, making actually accessing the place impossible.

== Description==
==Quotes==
In the spring, he tells you that there is a rock in front of his house, preventing him from getting in; however, the water prevents [[Banjo]] from destroying the boulder (legitimately). In the summer, Banjo can break the rock blocking his house; however, due to the drought, there isn't enough water to swim up and it's far too steep to use [[Kazooie]]'s [[Talon Trot]]. When autumn comes around, Banjo can finally swim into his house and collect the [[Jiggy]]. In winter, Banjo can swim in the frozen pond to get into Gnawty's house to obtain an [[Extra Honeycomb]]. However, due to the low temperature, there is only one hole in the ice to enter the water and whenever Banjo and Kazooie dive below the surface of the water and/or under the ice, it costs Banjo and Kazooie to use up air twice as fast due to the freezing temperature.
*"''Somebody move this boulder, Gnawty can't get in his house!''"
*"''You look pretty strong, can you move this boulder?''"
*"''Wow, what strength! Come inside.''"
*"''Oh, here you are at last! I've been waiting months to give you this!''"
*"''It's getting a bit chilly out here, I wish I was inside...''"
*"''Brrr....this water's freezing and I'm still stuck outside thanks to you!''"
*"''Wow, you must really want this if you swam in that freezing water!''"
*"''Cor...I don't usually get visitors in winter!''"


If Banjo ignores Gnawty in the summer, he can still be found trying to get into his home and is still trapped outside in the pond. In autumn, he will begin state that wishes he was inside his house (although the water will ''still'' prevent Banjo from destroying the boulder as well) since the water was filled up to the level of what it is in spring. Finally, in winter, Gnawty is trapped beneath the frozen pond and accuses Banjo for not helping him.
==Name origin==
Gnawty's name is a portmanteau of the words "naughty" and "gnaw."


If Banjo forgets the Jiggy in autumn, but gets it in the winter, Gnawty will worriedly say that he really wants it if he was still outside.
