The Lord of the Quadroads is an unnamed stranger encountered by Grog in Vasselheim. As an NPC, the Lord of the Quadroads is played by Matthew Mercer.

"Lord of the Quadroads" is the cast's unofficial name for him. It is worth noting that, according to Matt, "there are many lords and ladies of the Quadroads, he's just now one of them."

Background
Grog encounters this man during his one-year break, in an alleyway of the Quadroads in Vasselheim. The man is very drunk. Grog, looking for someone to test the potentially dangerous Deck of Many Things in his possession, convinces this stranger to pull a card. The man pulls the Queen of Diamonds, which grants him two wishes; he immediately uses one wish to become "a powerful lord of the Quadroads." He then runs off, still with one more wish at his disposal.

The stranger has not been heard from since; it is unknown whether he has maintained his station or even whether he is still alive. Grog and Scanlan did go looking for him during a later visit to Vasselheim, but were diverted by guards before they could make any inquiries.

Grog Strongjaw
Grog was arguably responsible for this man's elevation from a common drunkard to lordship. As such, Grog is hopeful that he might be owed a favor -- possibly the remaining wish. However, since the lord heard Grog's name as "Grog Strongthings" and was very drunk at the time, this may be too optimistic on Grog's part.
