'''Mingella''', occasionally nicknamed '''Mingy''', is a character in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''.


'''Mingella Winkybunion''', also called '''Mingy''' is a sister of [[Gruntilda]] who appears as an antagonist in ''[[Banjo Tooie]]''. She depicted is tall and has a very gaunt, thin frame, in stark contrast with her other sister [[Blobbelda]], who is garishly obese. Together with Blobbelda and [[Klungo]], Mingella hopes to revive her sister, restore her to her original form, and help her get revenge on Banjo and Kazooie.
==Physical traits==
Mingella is tall and thin. She wears a sleek, low cut navy blue dress and pointed witch's hat. She has a pink bob cut, a large, thin nose, and crooked yellow teeth.


==Physical characteristics==
==Biography==
Mingella is the thinnest a of the four Winkybunion sisters. She is tall, thin stereotypical witch. She wears a sleek, low cut navy blue dress and pointed witch's hat. She has a pink bob cut, a large, thin nose, and crooked yellow teeth. During the [[Tower of Tragedy Quiz]], Grunty refers to her as her "gorgeous, slim sister". She is also seen in the beginning of ''Banjo Tooie'' carrying a large spellbook, which she uses to unite her powers with Blobelda and free Grunty.
Mingella is one of [[Gruntilda]]'s three sisters, along with [[Blobbelda]] and [[Brentilda]]. Mingella is paired with Blobbelda, and both of them only appear in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', as secondary antagonists. Both Mingella and Blobbelda speak in anastrophe.


Mingella also has a tendancy to speak crypically. She, along with Blobbelda reverse the order of the words in their phrases. Ironically, they find Grunty's rhyming anoying and force her to stop.
===''Banjo-Tooie''===
[[File:Mingella and Blobbelda BT intro.png|thumb|left|200px|Mingella and Blobbelda watch Grunty come out of the ditch]]
In ''Banjo-Tooie'', Mingella and Blobbelda first appear in the opening cutscene, where they arrive at [[Spiral Mountain]]. Mingella takes out her spellbook and manages to lift the boulder that Grunty has been stuck under, thus freeing her. Shortly after Grunty is freed, she and her sisters go into the [[Hag 1]] and leave off to [[Cauldron Keep]].


==History==
At the [[Tower of Tragedy Quiz]] show, Mingella and Blobbelda are contestants. Grunty calls Mingella her "gorgeous, slim sister." Both of her sisters up losing, and Grunty impulsively drops a 1-ton weight onto both of them.
At the end of ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]'', Grunty's ghost, who had just been defeated by  the duo once again, returns to her body, still underneath the boulder. She tells Klungo to summon her sisters to help him move the boulder crushing her. Using the wreckage of [[Mecha-Grunty]], Mingella and Blobbelda create the [[Hag 1]] and break into [[Spiral Mountain]], beginning the events of ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''.


==Games==
===''Grunty's Revenge''===
===''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''===
In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]''{{'}}s ending, Blobbelda and Mingella are vaguely mentioned by Gruntilda, who orders Klungo to get her sisters to help her, thus starting the events of ''Banjo-Tooie''.
Upon reaching Spiral Mountian, Mingella combines her powers with Blobbelda and frees Grunty. After wreching havoc and killing [[Bottles]] the three go back to [[Cauldron Keep]], where Mingella and Blobbelda introduce Grunty to [[B.O.B.]], which they have built prior to start of the game. From there the three of them drain the life force from [[King Jingaling]]. Neither Mingella or Blobbelda are seen until the [[Tower of Tragedy Quiz]].


Following her failure Tower of Tragedy Quiz, Grunty drops a 1-ton weight on her, presumably killing her.  
===''Nuts & Bolts''===
In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', Mingella is an incorrect answer for a question in [[Lord of Games]]' [[List of questions from The Six of the Best|quiz]] that asks "who was Banjo's adversary in ''Banjo-Tooie''," with the correct answer being "Gruntilda."


==Other sisters==
Her and Blobbelda are also vaguely mentioned in [[Spiral Mountain]] by a information speaker in the description for "Grunty's Grave." It mentions that, after being buried under a rock in the events of ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', Gruntilda was "brought back by her sisters as an even less attractive skeleton."

==Flavor text==
*'''''Banjo-Tooie'' manual profile (shared with Blobbelda):''' "''The comical appearance of tall, thin Mingella and short, fat Blobbelda is a perfect disguise for their magical prowess, which makes short work of the giant boulder that covered their elder sister's grave. Not since childhood have the wart-covered coven been together, and as a result the odds have suddenly swung back to three against two in their favour!''"
