Goris

Goris is an intelligent deathclaw and a scholar. He has learned how to crudely disguise himself among humans by wearing loose robes, and claiming that he was really a human but had some deformity he wished to hide, and travelled among them learning of their culture. Goris may join the Chosen One's party in search of new experiences and knowledge. His absence from Vault 13 while he travelled with the Chosen One meant that he was the only survivor of Frank Horrigan's massacre of the rebellious deathclaws. He, possibly along with Xarn depending on the Chosen One's actions, are the only two surviving intelligent deathclaws.

Goris is tough, quick, and skilled in unarmed combat. However, his inability to use ordinary weapons and armor reduce his utility as an NPC somewhat.
