We never said that the women on this list had to be humans! Kazooie is the wise cracking, baddie pecking, hot-tempered, insult slinging red-crested breegull that lives in her counterpart Banjo's backpack. She's never afraid to tell it like it is and one of the franchise's main characters has gone so far as to refer to her as the "filthy feathered one".
Despite her constant insults and propensity for pranks, Kazooie is the perfect protagonist. She's brave, loves to go on adventures and is willing to help anyone out on the course of those adventures. On top of that, she can fire eggs out of her mouth and backside to incapacitate her enemies. What more could you ask for?
