Humba Wumba is a female shaman, who is the person who casts the spells which transform the two main characters, Banjo and Tooie, into different creatures, each with different skills. Although she doesn't appear in 'Banjo-Kazooie', her future appearance is foreshadowed when her name is mentioned.

Her appearance is that of a Native American and she is depicted living in a wigwam. Among the transformations she can cause are changing characters into a dragon, a submarine, a snowball and even a washing machine, each with different attributes which are needed to progress in the game.

The games based on the films were developed by Electronic Arts, who held the rights to create video games using the movie versions.
