Bentley

Bentley is a yeti and friend of Spyro who first appeared in Spyro: Year of the Dragon. He has a younger brother named Bartholomew. In his debut appearance, Bentley is voiced by Neil Ross.

Spyro: Year of the Dragon
In Spyro: Year of the Dragon, Bentley was captured by the The Sorceress and given to Moneybags for safekeeping. According to Moneybags, it took 24 Rhynocs to subdue Bentley. After being freed by Spyro, Bentley thanked him "with the humility of a wounded sparrow." Bentley speaks with a wide vocabulary in a kind and scholarly manner, such as when he described Moneybags as a "duplicitous larceanous ursine".

Bentley was a playable character in a few levels. His gameplay abilities are related to his physical strength as a yeti; although Bentley is slow, he can smash through most obstacles and enemies with his large club, push blocks to solve puzzles, and deflect projectile attacks with his club.

One of Bentley's mini-game challenges is a boxing match against another yeti. This is because Bartholomew demanded Bentley to retrieve his missing beach ball, only for them to be enraged that the prize was a Dragon Egg. This mini-game can be played with two players if another controller is inserted.

In Spyro: A Hero's Tail, Bentley requested Hunter to help rid his glacial home of invading yetis.

 * North American website: "Bentley is the big boy with the heart of gold. A Yeti, he might be a big bag of furry friendliness to his pals but when he gets mad, he really lets rip. Huge obstructions are no problem to Bentley - he just knocks over anything that gets in his way. Aided by his huge club and boxing gloves, Bentley is one Yeti you don't want to mess with."
