Gern Blanston

 is a blue dragonborn wizard and guest ally of Vox Machina. He is played by special guest Chris Hardwick.

Gern is described to be a blue dragonborn without a tail. He speaks with an Irish accent. He is a simple candlemaker who seemingly makes enchanted candles with different effects. He early on described one of his candles as a 'tragedy Candle'.

As a necromancer, Gern can reanimate the dead. When he met Vox Machina he had four undead thralls with him, named Carol, Coral, Fatty Arbuckle, and Stimpy.

During the fight against the efreet, Vex'ahlia offered to hold his broom of flying. After the battle, she slipped into the Bag of Holding and lied to Gern, telling him that it fell into the lava.
