Biography

Dippy lives inside of a hole in Terrydactyland. When Banjo and Kazooie meet Dippy, he tells them that he is very thirsty. Dippy usually gets water from a pool outside of his cave, but it has dried up. When Kazooie tells Dippy to find water himself, he tells her that he is staying in his cave to avoid the sun from burning his skin. At Cloud Cuckooland, when Banjo and Kazooie destroy a large boulder blocking a water drain, the water rains down to Terrydactyland. Dippy happily drinks the water from the pool, wondering where it came from and saying that it tastes heavenly. Kazooie admits to Dippy that she lied that water would not fall from the sky. Dippy happily rewards Banjo and Kazooie with a Jiggy, which is automatically added to their collection.
