BiographyEdit

Banjo-TooieEdit

In Banjo-Tooie, when Banjo and Kazooie first meet Jolly Roger, he tells them that Merry Maggie has gone missing. Jolly Roger asks them to find her so that she can help him during the bar's happy hour. To find Merry Maggie Malpass, Banjo and Kazooie must track down the Big Fish in the lagoon and knock out its teeth with Grenade Eggs. Once its teeth are gone, they can swim inside, where they find Maggie. She reveals that she was riding one of Captain Blubber's waveracers until the Big Fish knocked her over and swallowed her. When Banjo and Kazooie tell her that she can leave the fish, Maggie returns to the bar. Once the duo also return there, they are rewarded a Jiggy. Ever since Merry Maggie Malpass has returned, she can be found in an inn behind the bar, brushing her hair.
