Profession	Warrior
Service	Hero
Level(s)	18..20
Campaign	Nightfall

Goren is big. Goren is strong. Goren is really, really good at sprinting into battle. Unfortunately, Goren isn't exactly the sharpest blade in the armory. He understands everyday conversation, and he can carry out simple commands – particularly sentences with the words "hit" and "smash" in them – but the finer philosophical passages of the Flameseeker Prophecies will remain eternally outside his comprehension. Eager for work, Goren has found employment working as the bodyguard of Prince Bokka the Magnificent. Money and influence don't mean much to him, though. Loyalty does.

[edit] Recruitment

Complete the quest Goren's Stuff: Part 1 to gain Goren. The quest is only available after completing the quest Brains or Brawn by selecting Norgu. As noted in that quest, do not select Goren in Brains or Brawn if you want to gain Goren as your Hero. Once Brains or Brawn is completed, Norgu can no longer be recruited until after the completion of the Nightfall campaign for that character.

[edit] Dialogue

Vabbi:

"The boss says to stand here and guard. I better not move or he'll get angry."

During Brains or Brawn and Goren's Stuff: Part 1:

"Wait, what? Oh! Hi! Did you need protection? Want me to hit something? Need a backrub? Whatever you want, boss. Prince Bokka said I was the best bodyguard to ever work for him. But I think he just said that because he wasn't dead. I mean, I guess that's good, right?

Dasha Vestibule mission:

"I hope Prince Bokka will be happy to see me."

Throne of Secrets:

"Ahai, hero! I want to be just like you!"
