Tusk

General Tusk, the leader of the Mercenaries, is a minor antagonist and the vindictive, unforgiving commander of the Piglin bastion, who vows to hunt down all who wronged his faction in his loyalty to the Piglin King. He appeared in Nightmares as the secondary antagonist.
== Design ==
Tusk is an armored Piglin Brute, with a pale, yellow stone engraved in the center of his armor. Underneath, he wears the traditional, scruffy attire of a piglin. His eyes are curved into a menacing look, hidden underneath a thin, black eyepatch concealing his scarred eye.
== History ==
=== Background ===
TBA
==== Nightmares ====
He is first seen in Nightmares when he busts the doors in the Netherbane Tavern. He attacks and kick one of the people, seeing that Ciara isn't in the tavern, he smashes this Blackstone Axe on the table then leaves to find Ciara. After following the trail of gold left by Ciara, they set up camp. In the middle of the night, Ciara attacks the Piglin camp and after a quick duel, he is defeated by a final swift stab through the chest. He is last seen when Kane comes and see's that the Piglins are dead.
== Personality ==
Tusk is an extremely ruthless and devoted individual, unwilling to bow down to any challenge, especially when his entire group is massacred. He is loyal to Porkshire, willing to die for his protection, and is vindictive enough to carry out whatever duty he is tasked with, no questions asked. He isn't one to use deception to get his way, and easily grows tired of waiting (as seen in the Netherbane Tavern).
He has little regard for non-Piglin life, mercilessly throwing Shaney across the room without any delay.
== Skills ==
Tusk is skilled with a Blackstone Axe, as well as a competent leader. He is fortefied enough to take severe effort and precision to cut him down, however, it does not excuse his lessened speed.
