'''Lord Woo Fak Fak''' is the boss of [[Jolly Roger's Lagoon]] in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''. He is a giant anglerfish who resides in Davy Jones' locker at the bottom of the ocean. [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] notice the Jiggy in the light on his angler and take a closer look, but Lord Woo Fak Fak wakes and sees them. Banjo lies and says they came to bring his mail, but Lord Woo Fak Fak assumes they came to steal his Jiggy, drain his home and leave him to shrivel up and die. Kazooie agrees to "something like that", and the giant fish starts the battle.

'''Lord Woo Fak Fak''' is a character in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''.


To defeat Lord Woo Fak Fak, the player has to target the boils on the side of his body. Only the flashing boils can be damaged. There are six total, and each takes one hit from an [[Grenade Eggs|explosive]]. During this time Lord Woo Fak Fak will attack by firing energy blasts from his angler, and despite that his eyes are closed, the pair will still get hit if they don't move. After all of the boils are shot, he curses Banjo and Kazooie for attacking when his eyes are closed and opens them. To damage him now, the player has to shoot his eyes, which each take three hits. However, this part is more dangerous because since Lord Woo Fak Fak can see now, his shots are more accurate, he starts shooting bubble traps, and the player has to stay in front of him to hit him. If at any point the player runs low on eggs, there's a nest in each corner of the locker, though going down to get them makes it easier to get hit. This can be made easier by having [[Humba Wumba]] transform you into a [[Submarine Banjo|submarine]], since the submarine doesn't run out of torpedoes. After the battle he goes belly up and his light goes out. If Banjo and Kazooie continue to shoot him after the battle, he will say that he is dead and has no more Jiggies, which is ironic, considering the fact that if he is truly dead, he would not be able to speak.

==Biography==
Lord Woo Fak Fak lives inside an "[[Davy Jones' Locker|appallingly cramped locker]]" deep under [[Jolly Roger's Lagoon]], in [[Atlantis]]. [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] encounter Lord Woo Fak Fak inside Davy Jones' Locker, where he is subtitled "Self-Important Anglerfish." There, they notice the Jiggy in his angler bulb and approach it.

Kazooie agrees to "something like that," and the battle starts.
 
The battle starts with Lord Woo Fak Fak having his eyes closed. To attack, Banjo and Kazooie must shoot at Lord Woo Fak Fak's flashing boil using either a [[Grenade Egg]] or a [[Submarine Banjo|submarine]] torpedo. Lord Woo Fak Fak attacks by firing electric orbs from his angler. Once the duo hit all six boils, Lord Woo Fak Fak condemns them and opens his eyes, starting the second phase of the battle. Here, Banjo and Kazooie must shoot at Lord Woo Fak Fak's eyes, each requiring three hits. Lord Woo Fak Fak instead starts firing bubble traps, which have a more accurate aim. When both eyes are hit three times, Lord Woo Fak Fak is defeated, causing him to turn upside down and leave behind his Jiggy.
