Branka

"I am your Paragon."



Branka is the newest Paragon of the dwarves, by creating a smokeless coal which could burn in a cave without vents and no one would choke from it. However, two years before the beginning of Dragon Age: Origins, Branka took her entire House (save her then-husband Oghren) into the Deep Roads in the hopes of finding the Anvil of the Void. She has not been heard from since, and is presumed dead by most of the citizens of Orzammar.

Strategy
If you decide to side with Caridin, Branka will attack you with 4 golems under her command. Branka is a weapon-and-shield warrior with high physical resistance and, as natural for a dwarf, magic resistance. The best way to defeat her is to first defeat her golems. If her health is less then half, she'll use lyrium veins to duplicate herself, so use them before she does.
