Goran Vedmire

Goran Vedmire, a male Goliath, was hired by the Briarwoods in Wildmount to assist in taking over Whitestone from the de Rolos. After the fall of Whitestone he was given the title of Duke by the Briarwoods, lording over the denizens as one of the New Nobles. He continues to live there and serves the community as penance for his crimes against the people. As an NPC, he was played by Matthew Mercer.

Appearance and Personality
As with most Goliaths, he is a large, gray skinned man of immense strength. While he no doubt displayed cruelty during his reign as a noble, he also accepts when he is beaten and shows respect towards his adversaries. He agreed to serve the city as payment for his crimes and calmly acknowledges his defeat at the hands of Trisha during the Winter's Crest arm-wrestling competition.

Abilities
He is seen in combat during Scanlan's attack on his mansion, however he is not able to do much aside from chase after the bard whilst his house begins to burn down. Keeper Yennen says that he "wields a blade as long as his body".
