'''Jolly Roger''' is an anthropomorphic frog and a recurring character in the [[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|''Banjo-Kazooie'' series]].

==Biography==
He was initially the mayor of [[Jolly Roger's Lagoon]] and owner of a [[Jolly's|harborside inn]]. In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', he eventually became a sketchy businessman, changing his name to "'''Jolly Dodger'''," likely to not be recognized by the [[Showdown Town Police]].

===''Banjo Tooie''===
[[File:Jolly Roger B-T ending.png|thumb|150px|left|Jolly Roger in ''Banjo-Tooie''{{'}}s Character Parade]]
Jolly Roger debuted in ''Banjo-Tooie'', acting as the mayor of Jolly Roger's Lagoon and owner of a tavern in the seaside town. When first encountered, he is sad due to the fact that his partner, [[Merry Maggie Malpass]], has recently gone missing. When she is rescued from the [[Big Fish]], Jolly rewards [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] with a Jiggy. 

He then allows the duo to rent the only vacant room of the inn for a discounted price of two [[Doubloons]] because a "[[Jamjars|naughty mole]]" had dug a hole in the corner of it (although it is possible to simply blow the door off with Kazooie instead of paying). If his offer is refused, Jolly will unhappily say that he hoped they'd deal with the "rodent rascal." However, the game can't be progressed without learning the [[Sub-Aqua Egg Aiming|ability taught here]] by Jamjars, so entering the room, regardless of the method, is necessary.

While talking with Jolly Roger afterwards will only result in him thanking the duo for their help, interacting with the [[jukebox]] will result in him telling Banjo and Kazooie it's broken. To fix the machine, the two must collect all 25 [[Cheato Page]]s and return them to [[Cheato]], who will then reward the duo with the cheat code JUKEBOX and input it in the [[Code Room]]. Jolly will dance in the counter when the Jukebox is playing.

===''Banjo-Pilot''===
In ''[[Banjo-Pilot]]'', Jolly Roger is a playable character, being unlocked by completing [[Pumpkin Cup]] and giving 100 [[Cheato Page]]s to [[Cheato]]. He has low top speed but high handling and acceleration. Jolly Roger is the boss of Pumpkin Cup, being fought at the end in the match "Jolly Roger Joust." During the battle, when Jolly Roger is flying in front, he shoots behind cannonball that work like [[Ice Egg|Single Blue Ice Egg]]s.

===''Nuts & Bolts''===
[[File:Jolly Dodger KI3.jpg|thumb|Jolly Dodger with fake ''Killer Instinct 3'' covers]]
Jolly Roger reappears in ''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts'' under the alias of "Jolly Dodger," selling Jiggies in various locations of [[Showdown Town]] such as under a bridge in the seaside area, behind a tree near the lighthouse and at a dock near a hill (only at night in this instance). Each Jiggy he sells has a different name, description and price, although these are the only differences. When bought, they will appear in Jolly Dodger's own [[Jig-o-Vend]] and need to be transported by Banjo and Kazooie themselves. After all of his Jiggies have been sold, he will no longer appear in the town. Sometimes, he open his briefcase, revealing many boxes of "''[[List of implied entertainment#Killer Instinct 3|Killer Instinct 3]]''" (abbreviated as "''KI3''" in them).

In [[LOGBOX 720]], Jolly Dodger plays the role of "The Celebrity Coding Sensation," a coding professional. His missions are mostly about defending the video game console from enemies. In Act 2, he asks for the duo to defend the computer chips from [[Gruntbot]]s and in Act 6 he requests that they zap all of the console's [[Bug]]s.

In the [[Terrarium of Terror]], Jolly Dodger portrays "The Docile, Dithering Doormat Droid," a shy robot that's part of a space crew. His missions normally involve transporting objects and characters through the world. In Act 2, he requests that the duo to transport him and his crew to various areas. In Act 3, he needs Banjo and Kazooie to deliver tea and expensive biscuits to other characters.

Jolly Dodger also appears at the end of the game at [[Banjo's house]] in [[Spiral Mountain]] to congratulate Banjo and Kazooie for defeating [[Gruntilda]]. He also fixes the duo's house but, to their displeasure, repaints it pink and white instead.

In [[L.O.G.'s Lost Challenges]], Jolly plays "The Deep Double Agent." His challenge is to stay inside a giant crown for a certain amount of time as part of a parade for [[King Jingaling]].
