{{Monster Statblock | monster_name = Gorak the Brute | image = | size = Medium | type = humanoid | alignment = Chaotic Evil | ac = 10 | hp = 10 | speed = 30 ft. | str = 20 | str_mod = +5 | dex = 12 | dex_mod = +1 | con = 20 | con_mod = +5 | int = 8 | int_mod = -1 | wis = 10 | wis_mod = +0 | cha = 10 | cha_mod = +0 | saving_throws = — | skills = Athletics +9, Intimidation +4 | damage_vulnerabilities = — | damage_resistances = — | damage_immunities = | condition_immunities = Frightened | senses = Passive Perception 10 | languages = Common | cr = 0 | xp = 0 | actions = | legendary_actions_header = | legendary_actions = | reactions_header = | reactions = | roleplaying_header = Roleplaying Notes | campaign = Echos of Lyhnn | appearance = A massive, hulking figure with a barrel chest and arms like tree trunks. Gorak's face is a mess of old scars, and his thick, matted hair is often dusted with snow. He is an imposing sight, wearing a rusty suit of chain mail that barely contains his raw strength. | voice_mannerisms = A deep, guttural growl is Gorak's natural speaking voice. He communicates more with grunts and simple phrases, often letting his greataxe do the talking. | bond = He is bound to Kaelen, but only because she is the strongest person he has ever met. He fears her, but respects her power more than any other. | ideal = Strength is the only law. The strong survive, the weak are prey, and the only path to power is through brute force. | flaw = He is easily provoked and lacks patience or strategic thinking. He is a bull in a china shop, incapable of subtlety and prone to violent outbursts. | info = Gorak was a wandering brute until Kaelen defeated him in a one-on-one fight. Recognizing her as a superior force, he pledged his loyalty. He now serves as her chief enforcer, a whirlwind of destruction who is used to put down any dissent or to handle threats that require a heavy hand. | equipment = Chain mail, greataxe }
