- "Gee, thanks! If everyone was like you we'd have no problems in this world. I wouldn't even be sat here!"

The Beggar Hippie is a character in Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy.
Biography[]
The Beggar Hippie is found lying on pillows near the Grand Canal. Sphinx can donate scarabs to him, and, after 30 scarabs have been donated, he gives Sphinx a Gold Ankh Piece.
He says he likes to travel a lot and go to Heliopolis to "chill out on the beach" in the Bedouin Outpost. Sphinx can give him a parasol, and receive the large scarab bag.

Quotes[]
- "You don't have that many Scarabs yourself, friend. Perhaps you should find a doorway and take up my profession."
- ―If Sphinx offers an amount he doesn't have
- "Wow, 2 Scarabs! Now I can go and buy that house I always wanted! Mumble... tight fisted... grumble... stingy little..."
- ―If Sphinx offers 2 Scarabs
- "Wow, you are a regular samaritan! You've been so generous, let me give you something in return. I found this thing the other day in one of the sewers. Don't ask me what I was doing down there, you don't want to know! Anyway, it's all I have and I want you to take it."
- ―The third time Sphinx offers 10 Scarabs
Trivia[]
- He has an unused hammock animation. Probably meant to be used while in the Bedouin Outpost look-out, but it may ended up making the talking cutscenes more complicated.
- A very small triangular piece of the hammock can be seen when he is 'chilling out' on the beach.
