Honcho

"Not only am I the honcho of this here little village, Honcho's my name! Tell me, guy, was I not made for this job?"

- Honcho

Honcho is the village honcho of the Anoukis living in Anouki Village in The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks. He lives in the north center house overlooking the rest, has short horns and a long beard, and wears a purple parka. Aside from his horns, he looks just like the Island Chief from The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass.

When Link first arrives in the village, Link asks him about finding Steem at the Snow Sanctuary. Honcho tells him that due to the Spirit Tracks vanishing and a sudden increase of monsters, there is no safe route there and the village is in danger of being attacked. Because of this, he is too busy trying to organize the Anoukis into pairs for guard duty, believing safety in numbers is the best approach. Link offers to help, but Honcho warns him the other Anoukis are very picky about their partners. Honcho himself is happy with any of them, and in the end is paired with Yefu. Upon pairing all the Anoukis, Honcho thanks him, then claims that the arrangement Link gave him was already what he suspected. Link then reminds him that he still needs help getting to the Snow Sanctuary, and Honcho tells him of a nearby cave, which he unlocks. He tells him that the tunnel has been locked due to a "ginormous monster" moving in a few years before, with the Anoukis not being tough enough to brave it. He sees Link as able, though, and tells him to be careful, as he does not want to see a good person like him get hurt, along with looking like "a doof" if it was figured out he had directed him there in the first place.

After Link has met Steem and restored most of the Spirit Tracks of the Snow Realm, Honcho is still in the village. If he speaks with him, Link tells him he is now going to try to get through the massive blizzard to the Snow Temple. Honcho tells him that it will simply blow him back to the beginning, though a train enthusiast to the east named Ferrus may know a way through. Later, he can be found on guard duty, complaining that as the village honcho, he should not have to. When Link is looking for something to cool the lava spurts at Goron Village, Honcho tells him about the Mega Ice sold by Noko nearby. At one point while Honcho is on watch, Link brings a Goron to the village only for Kofu to impersonate Honcho and rent his house to a visiting Goron.
