'''Jinxy''' is a large sphinx with the body of a cat and the face of a bird found in [[Gobi's Valley]]. Since he is largely immobile, items are placed on top of his back and feet, including [[Wading Boots]] on his tail and a [[Flight Pad]] on his back. Interestingly, he is capable of speaking, and complains of a stuffed nose when [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] stand on one of the two pillars in front of him. The duo can remedy his ailment by firing [[Blue Eggs]] into his nostrils, tickling his nose and causing him to sneeze. As thanks, Jinxy will open the small door on his chest and allow them inside, where they can find some [[Musical Notes]], a [[Jinjo]], a [[Mumbo Token]], and a [[Jiggy]], as well as an angry [[Slappa]].

In his first appearance, ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', Jinxy initially complains about how his nose is blocked up, and can be helped by [[Egg Firing|firing]] [[Blue Egg]]s in his nostrills, clearing them. After being aided, he thanks [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] and opens a passage between his arms that leads to a room containing some [[Musical Note]]s, a [[Mumbo Token]], a [[Jinjo]] and a [[Jiggy]]. A [[Slappa]] is also located inside. In his tail, a pair of [[Wading Boots]] can be worn and his back contains a [[Flight Pad]].
