Gherig Bullblood is the patriarch of the Dreadhorn Clan, and leader of the clan's operations in the Bloodroot Forge. He serves as the second mini-boss of the dungeon.
He is tasked with feeding the forge with the blood and bodies of his captives, some of whom can be seen ensnared on the walls in the heart of the forge.
In the final chamber of the dungeon, he works with the Attendant of Flame and Attendant of Blood to create the Earthgore Amalgam, summoned upon their collective defeat.
