Tribal Snouts

*This article is about the Tribal Snouts as a group. For the mob fought in Mission 3 of Assassin of Steve 2, see Tribal Snout.*

The **Tribal Snouts** are a powerful clan of zombie pigmen who live in the Tribal Snout Village located in the jungle.

## Information

The Tribal Snouts live in the Tribal Snout Village in the jungle, where they live in large tree-houses connected by wooden bridges. They employ zombies and skeletons as servants, who live in dilapidated shacks and tents on the jungle floor. Some Tribal Snouts work as guards for the Snout Temple, while some others live near the Redstone Volcano, King Parcore's abode.

Not much is known about the general lifestyle of a Tribal Snout other than that they all 'know a thing or two about fighting'. Despite this, they consider themselves to be peaceful, only attacking when provoked (emulating the vanilla behaviour of zombie pigmen). They have an unspoken truce with the villagers of Rhouff, and also have agreements with the Cropper, who supplies their food.

The Tribal Snouts hold some social events such as the Snout 500, which is a race for pigs and Snout Rider.

## History

### Before the Assassin of Steve maps

The Tribal Snouts were formed after the Ender War, when Steve allowed Parcore and the other zombie pigmen who fought in the war to settle in the jungle in return for their bravery. The Snout Temple was constructed to establish the zombie pigman presence in the Overworld (as well as to hide the Squiggly Replic within). The Tribal Snout Village was then built near it. Everyone started calling Parcore King, so he decreed himself as such.

King Parcore also gave out the four Pink Jewels to the Cropper, who was a skeleton farmer who would go on to supply the Tribal Snouts' food, as well as to Windwood, Dr Mutation, and Stelldark the Astral Wizard, who were other allies of King Parcore that lived in the area.

*Main article: Great Pigman Revolution.*

King Parcore proclaimed that the Tribal Snouts should be peaceful to the rest of the inhabitants of the Overworld. While most agreed with him, some individuals didn't, which started the Great Pigman Revolution. King Parcore swept in and banished all the traitors to the Frozen Wasteland, which would later result in some exiles joining the Skeleton Army or Glacial Kingdom, and the Minemaster setting up his mining corporation.

### Assassin of Steve 2: The Tribal Snouts

During the events of Assassin of Steve 2, the player invades the Tribal Snout Village under the belief that the Tribal Snouts are working with the Assassin. After slaying all the Tree Chieftains and Kowe the Tribal Warrior, King Parcore's son, it transpires that this was not the case, however Chipnone, a priest and King Parcore's cousin, arrives on the scene and informs the player that the Assassin stole the Squiggly Replic from the Snout Temple.

They go around and retrieve all four pink jewels from their holders, however because King Parcore instructed them to protect the pink jewel with their life, this resulted in the deaths of Windwood and Stelldark the Astral Wizard, and also large amounts of damage to the Cropper and Dr Mutations' operations. When the Assassin leads them to the Redstone Volcano, he hypnotises King Parcore, forcing the player and Chipnone to knock him into the volcano as it was erupting. After this event Chipnone reveals he and the Assassin were working together all along, and that by slaying King Parcore and his allies, that it will be much more likely for the Assassin's plans to succeed.

It is not known what became of the Tribal Snouts as a group after the events of this map and all this untold destruction by the Assassin's manipulation of the player.
