Big-O-Blaster is a powerful mechanical blaster built by [[Mingella]] and [[Blobbelda]]. It is capable of sucking the life force of any living beings by blasting them with a laser beam, transforming its targets into lifeless zombies. This can also work in reverse, giving the life force stored in it back to someone.


==History==
===''Banjo-Tooie''===
===''Banjo-Tooie''===
In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', Mingella and Blobbelda intended to use the Big-O-Blaster to restore their sister [[Gruntilda]]'s body, that became simply a skeleton after being buried under a boulder for two years by [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]]. Gruntilda first stole [[King Jingaling]]'s life force in an attempt to restore her body, but it alone wasn't enough. After that, she decides to blast the entire [[Isle O' Hags]] as that would certainly absorb enough energy to complete her objective. However, in order to do that, the device needed a long charge-up. In this period of time, Banjo and Kazooie manage to arrive the tower where the weapon resided, defeating the witches and successfully restoring King Jingaling, [[King Jingaling's Throne Room|his palace]] and [[Bottles]], who was killed much earlier in the game.
