Old King Coal
Old King Coal is the boss of Glitter Gulch Mine and is essentially a gigantic living pile of coal inhabiting the boiler of Chuffy the train. He is possessive of his train and thinks that a curious Banjo is attempting to steal it. After a traditional exchange of lines, he proceeds to attack Banjo and Kazooie.

Old King Coal will lumber around the room in an attempt to hit Banjo and Kazooie. His body has no particular weak points and he can be hit with just about any attack. After taking a certain amount of damage, his right arm will crumble and fall off, making him a bit lighter and quicker, and progressively losing more body parts as he takes more damage. From the moment he loses his first arm, Old King Coal will periodically turn up the heat inside the boiler, making the floor dangerous to walk on and filling the air with suffocating smoke; pieces of debris amidst the sea of hot coals will offer protection against the heat until it wears off (he can't touch them when they stand on those either), but once King Coal is down to his last few body parts, the boiler will remain heated indefinitely until he has been defeated, making a quick kill imperative to avoid suffocating.
While it may be faster to chase Old King Coal and peck him, it may be safer to stay back on the debris and pelt him with eggs, which will still quickly kill him. It should be noted that he is immune to Fire Eggs. He does however, take extra damage from Ice Eggs and Grenade Eggs.
Upon defeat, Old King Coal lends Banjo and Kazooie usage of his train, as well as a shiny, golden Jiggy. He speaks on behalf of Chuffy and will even drive the train to them if called from another train station.
