- Muto

Muto was a young Kobold possessed with a gentle innocence who maintained the warehouse at Budehuc Castle.

He had a sad past and was abandoned at the castle as a puppy. Since then, he has lived and worked there, seeing the castle as the only home that had ever accepted him. As he had no relatives, the people of the castle were his precious family.

When Thomas became lord of Budehuc Castle, Muto was one of his strongest supporters. On the night before Thomas was due to be removed from his position, Muto stayed up repairing the walls of the castle without being asked. Although he knew Thomas could be removed, Muto sincerely hoped it would not come to pass and simply wished to do his best for Thomas's sake.

With Muto, Thomas, and the others finally stopped the Zexen Council's attack, Muto hugged everyone, sobbing with relief. He would continue to do his best for the castle and went on to work for the Fire Bringer throughout the War of the Champions.

Following the war, he continued to work hard at Budehuc Castle, though he still often handed over the wrong goods to customers.
