Level 42 bugbear council member repairing his wrecked town who threatened Carl, then offered to buy him a drink.
Goiter was the first bugbear Carl ever got a proper look at — Shamus Chaindrive from the last floor having been nothing but a head in a jar. Carl found him atop a house in the ruined Small Bugbear Settlement, hammering wood back into place in the daylight after the Hunters had destroyed the town. He stood up, pointed an enormous hammer at Carl and Princess Donut, and told them their kind wasn't welcome. Donut complained loudly that she could smell him from there, pickled beets and vodka.
When Carl explained they weren't the ones who wrecked the town and were there to kill the ones who did, Goiter flipped instantly to friendship and offered to buy him a drink. Carl declined for lack of time but warned him the same hunters would come back through in a few hours. Goiter circled his head, cracked his neck, and said they'd be ready. His examine text listed him as a council member of the settlement. His accent was eastern European, reminding Carl of Vadim, the crawler who locked himself in an escape pod and got killed by jellyfish.
A large, furry bugbear with pointed ears, a goblin-like face and orange-brown fur, twice as bulky as Carl, wearing a tattered leather apron and clutching an enormous hammer in a clawed hand.
Council member of the ruined bugbear settlement who agrees to prepare his people for the hunters' return.
