The Mastodon is the Pasha from Paulovits's Game. I added some notes to my Gross Chess page today about the Wizard and Champion, in which I explained why I think they make the most natural complements to the Knight, and in which I compared them to other possible complements, including the General and Pasha from Paulovits's Game. Although I do favor the Wizard and Champion as complements to the Knight, I do find the pieces from Paulovits's Game interesting, and I'll program a preset for it soon in order to play a game. Getting back to the Mastodon, this same piece, under the name of Minister, is used in Ajax Orthodox Chess, which is one of the games in the upcoming tournament.
