L.O.G. is knowledgeable of the first two games, ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'' and ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''. The [[Banjoland]] world has several artifacts originating from these two games. He references other characters and locations in his [[List of Questions From The Six of the Best|quiz]] during the final challenge. L.O.G. could also represent the game's developers, [[Rare Ltd.|Rare]], because a Banjoland exhibit directly states that he worked hard to get ''Banjo-Tooie'' released in a timely manner.

===Characteristics===
===Physical appearance===
L.O.G. is a tall character whose appearance consists of a floating, golden {{wp|cathode ray tube}} monitor and a long, mauve robe. The screen that makes up his "face" is green, and is stylized to resemble a gameplay screenshot of ''{{wp|Pong}}'', which is one of the first video games, complete with two paddles, ball, and a screen divider. The two paddles appear to represent his eyes, and his mouth could either be represented by the ball on-screen or the speaker at the bottom of the monitor. There are two literal, living computer mice crawling around him, and their tail represents a USB plug, and at one point L.O.G. says that nobody except his mic understand him.

L.O.G. has a wise yet domineering personality. He is shown to be fair, because he gave Grunty a new body so that she could have an equal chance of the competition for the Spiral Mountain deed.

*L.O.G. breaks the [[fourth wall]] in the introduction scene when he transforms Banjo and Gruntilda into a pumpkin and a Piñata, saying "I wish they could stay like this, but I suppose you people would actually like to take part in this game."

*L.O.G. mentions Nintendo's popular mascot Mario while talking with Kazooie: "We've been in several games!" "But nowhere near as many as that Italian gentleman, correct?" This is a reference that Mario appeared in over 200 games (including spin-offs), and Banjo and Kazooie had only appeared in 5 games up to that point.

*The game playing on L.O.G.'s monitor head is called "Generic Paddle Tennis Game 5", and it's his "way of trying to appear unthreatening and approachable to [his] little video game children".<ref name="Banjo-Kazooie Facebook Q&A"/>
