11 The Sleeper is the ancient entity bound in a temple beneath the Valley of Mines. It communicates with a narrow circle of the Colony's population through dreams and is the main-story antagonist of Gothic 1 Remake. Awakening it is the ultimate goal of the Swamp Camp, and stopping it is the ultimate goal of the campaign.

33 Dream Contact
44  
55 The Sleeper's contact with the Colony is one-sided and selective. It speaks through dreams to Y'Berion and a handful of others in the Brotherhood of the Sleeper, who interpret its messages as instructions and receive them as religious revelation. It does not broadcast to the wider population.

77 Why the Brotherhood Wants It
88  
99 The Brotherhood believes that fully awakening the Sleeper will break the Barrier and free the Colony's population. They interpret the Sleeper's presence as redemptive rather than threatening, which is what separates them from the other two camps politically.

1212 Why Xardas Opposes It
1313  
1414 The necromancer Xardas has studied the Sleeper in isolation since breaking from the Fire Circle. His reading of the evidence is that awakening it would destroy far more than the Barrier. He becomes the Hero's main guide in the late campaign on exactly this point, pushing for a confrontation rather than a release.

1716 Temple and Focus Stones
1817  
1918 In the preserved storyline, the Sleeper's temple is the campaign's final location, with orcs and undead guarding the descent. The Focus Stones that the middle chapters send the Hero after are positioned as the key to opening the way inside. Inside, the official patch notes describe a fight against a demonic form of Cor Kalom in a ring within the Sleeper Chamber, which the Hero ends with an execution.

2220 The Sleeper Mask
2321  
2422 The Sleeper's visual design is prominent enough in the remake's marketing that its mask is the centrepiece of the Collector's Edition: a 34 x 24 cm wall-mount version, produced as a genuine hard prop rather than a paper cutout. THQ Nordic also used a "Sleeper, Sleeper on the Wall" reveal post on Steam News to announce the Collector's Edition. See Editions and Pre-Order Bonuses.
