Ammonchi

Ammonchi is one of the villains who appears in Chris Heimerdinger's ''Tennis Shoes Adventure Series. He serves as a minor character in Kingdoms and Conquerors and a supporting antagonist in Drums of Desolation. ''He is the Banner Chief and personal secretary of the Nephite army's Fox Division led by Joshua Plimpton.

Kingdoms and Conquerors
In Ammonchi's first appearance, he informs Joshua Plimpton that the army's tracking hounds have been killed. A soldier named Gabriel immediately suspects Marcos Alberto Sanchez, as he had fed the dogs last night. Ammonchi reinforces the belief that Marcos poisoned the food and intends to murder Joshua. Marcos denies the rumors and tells them he suspects that it was a Wolf Witch assassin who did it. Joshua ends up ordering an investigation of the attempted assassination while he goes to seek an audience with General Mormon.

Ammonchi accompanies Joshua, Garth, Marcos, Nompak, and one hundred Nephite soldiers to Cumorah, where Mormon is located. On the way, they are ambushed by a Wolf Witch assassin. Ammonchi orders his soldiers to chase down the assassin and capture him. Though they are successful, the rest of their army is attacked by an army of Wolf Witches. Because of this, Joshua, Nompak, and Marcos suspect Ammonchi to have been the one who instigated the ambush. They take the captured Wolf Witch with them to Cumorah, though he dies of blood loss on the way.

When the Nephites reach Cumorah, Ammonchi introduces Joshua to Zenephi. During the introduction, Joshua and Garth observe Ammonchi's and Zenephi's reactions to each other's statements and deduce that Ammonchi was indeed involved in the attempted murder on Joshua.

Drums of Desolation
In Joshua's absence, Ammonchi takes over the position as captain of the Fox Division. When Joshua returns, he takes his position back.
