There is a sport popular among goliaths called goatball, in which players stand on stone pillars and hurl goatskin balls at each other Grog played the game as a youth. Goliaths' compulsive competitiveness translates to the world of sport. Brawlers have gained recognition in Emon in the the Godsbrawl Ring at the annual tournments in honor of the holy day of the Stormlord. Beyond the Dividing Plains, goliath brawlers can be found within criminal organizations and fighting rings, and some work as private bodyguards for important individuals. In the Rivermaw Tribe, goliath brawlers are front-line fighters at the head of many battles. ![]() Goliath brawlers refuse to use weapons, instead favoring their own body strength and skill in fist-fighting.

Goliaths are rarely seen in the cities of Wildemount, many choosing to live, like their Tal'Dorei brethren, in herds in the various mountain ranges that divide the continent, or in the arctic lands of Eiselcross. While the Herd was led by Kevdak, it is known that one custom was for the leader to accept a challenge for the title of Thunderlord in single combat to the death, as was the case when his Kevdak's nephew Grog Strongjaw challenged him while the Herd was occupying Westruun. After Kevdak was slain during the liberation of Westruun, his son Zanror became the Herd's new leader and the remaining members agreed to renounce their brutal lifestyle and merged with the more peaceful Rivermaw Tribe. By the time of the Chroma Crisis, the Herd, led by Thunderlord Kevdak, had led the Herd down a violent and savage path. The Herd of Storms was a roving band of goliath barbarians led by a Thunderlord that roamed the countrysides of Tal'Dorei.

Goliaths have an oral tradition rather than a written one. Others joined the more spiritual and peaceful Rivermaw Tribe. After its dissolution, many of the former members turned to fighting or thievery, either as mercenaries along the Lucidian Coast or bandits around the Ruins of O'Noa and Stilben. One notable example of such a group was the Herd of Storms. Others roam the Dividing Plains, stealing from the various villages of the region. Goliath clans are typically known as "herds", and some herds in the Stormcrest Mountains tame wyverns as mounts. In Tal'Dorei, some goliaths live in isolated mountain communities in the Cliffkeep Mountains and Stormcrest Mountains, primarily as hunters and gatherers.
