'''Terry''' is a character in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''.

==Biography==
Terry is a Terrydactyl father of four [[L'il Terry|babies]], being very protective of them. He once had a [[List of implied characters#Terry's ex-wife|wife]], but she left him and their children.<ref>"I hear Terry's wife left him recently, so his little 'uns are all he has left. He's very protective of them..." —Zombified [[King Jingaling]] in ''Banjo-Tooie''</ref>

Terry can be found atop a mountain in [[Terrydactyland]], inside his [[Terry's Nest|nest]], where he is subtitled "Disgruntled {{wp|Pterodactyl}} Parent." When [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] approach start climbing the place, he accuses them of stealing his four eggs and starts to spit a purple liquid in the duo's direction in an attempt to knock them out of the path. When they finally reach him, Terry once again asks for the two to give his eggs back, but as Banjo is unaware of their whereabouts, the battle starts.

Terry starts the fight by flying up and spitting into Banjo. This is an easily-avoidable attack, as simply keep moving is enough to not be hit. After that, he will move to another location, leaving himself open to Kazooie's [[Egg]] attacks. After taking enough damage, he will spit out several [[Mucoid]]s to attack the bear and bird. They can be quickly beaten by a [[Forward Roll]], however. After that, Terry will go back to spitting at the duo and the attacks repeat themselves until he is defeated.

Once he has been beaten, Banjo and Kazooie manage to convince him that they did not steal his eggs, even offering to bring them back to his nest. This causes Terry to give them a [[Jiggy]] and activates a [[Flight Pad]] to aid in their search. 

Once all four babies have returned to the nest, Terry rewards the duo with another Jiggy. 

In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', a portrait of Terry can be seen in [[Banjoland]]. Additionally, in the description of the [[List of Nuts & Bolts pre-made vehicles#Humba's Blueprints|Humba Wide]] blueprint, [[Humba Wumba]] says that the vehicle is "wide, but could break up easier than Terry's eggs in cement mixer."

==Quotes==
Before the battle:
*You down there! Steal my eggs, would you? Then take this...
*Gah, you made it! Come on, I dare you to come up the stairs. I'll show you what happens to egg-robbing bears!
Battle opening sequence:
*'''Terry:''' Give me back my eggs, you filthy light-fingered bear!
*'''Banjo:''' Uh, what eggs are those?
*'''Terry:''' Don't play the fool with me. I want my eggs back or else!
*'''Kazooie:''' Or else what? You're due to become extinct soon, anyway!
*'''Terry:''' Maybe so, but not before you two!
If Banjo and Kazooie lose the battle, and then return:
*'''Terry:''' I haven't forgotten, you know.
*'''Banjo:''' Forgotten what?
*'''Terry:''' That you've still got my eggs! Hand them over, you furry thief!
During the battle:
*Mmmm. I reckon I can get a better vantage point around the other side...
*Those eggs hurt! I'm off for a rest while the [[mucoid]]s soften you up!
*Hey! Where did all my snotty buddies go? You've stolen them, just like my precious eggs!
*Stop it! I've had enough!
After the battle:
*I've tried my best, but I'll never get my eggs from you now...
*'''Banjo:''' We haven't got your eggs, Terry.
*'''Terry:''' You haven't? Oh dear, sorry about the rough stuff...
*'''Kazooie:''' That's alright, I enjoyed it!
*'''Banjo:''' Perhaps we could keep a lookout for your eggs.
*'''Terry:''' Would you? That's real nice of you. There are four eggs to find, which must be ready for hatching around now...
*'''Banjo:''' Leave it with us, Terry.
*'''Terry:''' Please find the eggs for me before I become extinct. I'll give you half the reward for now and half later...
*'''Terry: '''''(activates a flight pad) ''To help you get my eggs back, I'll also let you use this...
After having hatched one of Terry's eggs (repeated line):
*'''Terry: '''That's one of my precious babies! Aww, isn't it cute?
After hatching the fourth and last egg:
*'''Terry:''' Yikes! She's a big girl, isn't she?
*'''Kazooie:''' Too right. She can't even fly!
*'''Terry:''' Hmmm, I'm not sure if there will be room in our nest. You couldn't just hit it with one of those Grenade Eggs, could you?
*'''Kazooie:''' You heartless...
*'''Terry:''' Only joking! Bring her back to me and I'll work out an exercise program for her.
*'''Kazooie:''' I'll just go and find Banjo then...
After Banjo brings the last baby to Terry's Nest:
*'''Terry: '''That's the last one!
*'''Banjo: '''Thank goodness! Kazooie won't want to see another egg for the rest of the game!
*'''Terry: '''Here's the other half of your reward as promised...
