Contrary to most of the Plegian army elite, Mustafa is an honorable man and among the many who were affected by Emmeryn's words prior to her sacrifice. Mustafa holds great love for his wife and son, thus he willingly fights to the death against Ylisse despite having no issue with the country, as he knew Gangrel would have his family killed if he tried to leave. He also allowed many of his men to desert their post, and was well respected despite fighting a losing battle against the Shepherds.
