Tribute

==Overview==
Tribute is a middle-aged Human man who leads as Headmaster of the Minthunt Combine's branch located in Grajita. He has been tasked with managing the overall operations in the Grajita Combine, as well as continuing the study, reconnaissance, and sleuthing in regards to the mystery of the Mint Gardens central to the Combine's existence.
==Appearance and Personality==
Tribute is a very tall, imposing man with a hardy physique, deep commanding voice, and long black hair partially tied into a ponytail. He is never seen without the typical white and green mask of the Minthunt Combine, completely obscuring his face. He wears a thick green headband alongside this mask, as well as very heavy green-tinted armor, and a deep red cape fastened across his broad shoulders. 
Tribute typically presents himself in a very courteous but straightforward way, never shying away from discussion even if it's uncomfortable, much like a diplomat. Though he does not need to cover his mouth when clearing his throat, he still instinctively brings a fist up to his mask when doing so. He has been shown to harbor a deep respect for Akkaz, the Mint Gardens, and the Pulsekaw within them, yet his own emotions sometimes lead him to take rash actions which betray this respect. He didn't flinch requesting Wonder and her group gather Pulse Torches, nor did he relent in maliciously threatening the Pulsekaw with their own names. 
Like most leaders of the resurgent Minthunt Combine, Tribute is deeply knowledgeable about the Mint Gardens, almost to a point of obsession. His obsession with the Gardens appears to only be rivaled by his love for his daughter Fluster, which often causes his split motivations, and internal conflicts. He is well aware of these conflicts of interest, and more importantly, recognizes that these same issues were ultimately the undoing of the original Minthunt Combine, which he fears repeating. 
Tribute's knowledge spans far beyond what most normal members of the Minthunt Combine are allowed to learn, though there are obvious gaps. He knows that Pulsekaw value hiding their names, but is unsure why. He also knows about the miraculous powers of a Chord of Life, though isn't exactly sure how to make one beyond its need for Pulse Torches. He is also a devout student of decrypting the ancient Pulsekaw texts, collecting ancient tablets to slowly translate with the help of Fluster. It was through these tablets that he learned of the importance Pulsekaw placed on their names.
