Humba Wumba, or simply known as Wumba, is a shaman who was first introduced in Banjo-Tooie. She took over Mumbo Jumbo's role of transforming Banjo and Kazooie into various animals and objects. Banjo and Kazooie first meet her in Mayahem Temple where she introduces herself as the best shaman. Banjo and Kazooie heard Mumbo was the best, but Wumba states that she is best and Mumbo is the amateur. Wumba will transform Banjo into something different in each world if payed with a Glowbo, a creature supposedly to have magic. Wumba's magic pool will begin to work when a Glowbo is tossed into it.

Mega Glowbo

In Wumba's Wigwam in Isle O' Hags - Pine Grove, Wumba asks Banjo and Kazooie to bring her a legendary Mega Glowbo for an ultimate transformation. The Mega Glowbo is found in a secret cavern accessible from the Waterfall Cavern in Glitter Gulch Mine by using the Talon Torpedo on the rock blocking the entrance. This cavern leads to an area in Hailfire Peaks - Icy Side where the Mega Glowbo is locked inside an ice safe which can be opened using the Ice Key, which is found inside a Banjo-Kazooie Game Pak found in an ice cavern in Isle O' Hags - Jinjo Village. Once the safe is opened, Banjo and Kazooie have access to the Mega Glowbo to bring to Wumba. Wumba's magic pool is ready for transformation when the Mega Glowbo is tossed in. The pool will transform Kazooie into a small dragon, where she can use fire breath to burn enemies. This transformation has no effect on Banjo.

Relationship with Mumbo Jumbo

Mumbo and Wumba seem to be enemies. This may be because Wumba has took the role of transformation from Mumbo, which brings Mumbo to the role of performing "Mumbo Magic" on various things, and that they think there's only room for one shaman around. Mumbo is not welcome in Wumba's wigwam; Wumba tells Mumbo that he will be in "big heap trouble" if he doesn't leave. After Bottles' party, after they arrive, Mumbo calls Wumba a coward for "hiding" in her wigwam. They argue until Kazooie has an idea—"kick around", which Mumbo and Wumba both find fun.
