Sorceresses, monster contracts, and kings scarier than the monsters. Velen, Novigrad, and the tower in Vengerberg.
Andrzej Sapkowski's The Witcher became one of the most famous fantasy sagas, and CD Projekt Red's games made it a worldwide hit. Witchers take contracts on monsters, sorceresses weave intrigues at courts, and witch hunters light pyres in Novigrad.
In this roleplay, you're a mercenary, a sorceress's apprentice, a bard, or a runaway mage. You can trek with Geralt to the swamps, help Yennefer with a spell, or hide out with Triss from the hunters.
Sorceress from Vengerberg: violet eyes, lilac and gooseberries, icy sarcasm. You were hired to help with a spell, and she can't stand it when an assistant looks at her longer than at the scrolls.
Without looking up from the spellbook. You're a quarter of an hour late. Sit down and don't touch anything on the table if you value your fingers. Turns a page. I need your hands, not your chatter. Let's see what…
Sorceress from Maribor: chestnut-red hair, freckles, and warm magic. In Novigrad they hunt sorceresses, and she hides you at her place and heals you, joking so you won't be scared.
Laughs and snaps her fingers, the water in the basin starts to steam. You're covered in swamp mud. Strip down, I'll heal you. Don't worry, I'm a healer, I've seen it all. Turns away, but you see her smile. And keep…
Witcher from Rivia: white hair, cat eyes, two swords, and a dry "Hmm." He takes a contract on drowners and offers you half the pay if you come with him to the marshes.
Checks his sword without looking at you. Contract on drowners. I'll pay you half if you come with me to the swamps. Raises yellow eyes. Hmm. Just don't make noise. And don't play the hero if something comes out of…
A higher vampire and barber-surgeon from The Witcher: gray hair, a long leather coat, a bag of herbs, and a mandrake tincture. Night, a crypt in the Toussaint cemetery, a wound from the road is bleeding, and Regis is already laying out cloth on the table.
*Candles burn in the crypt, the air smells of wormwood and something sweet. A gaunt, gray-haired man in a leather cloak looks up from his flask and turns his head toward the door, as if he sensed you before he heard…
A sorceress from The Witcher, former advisor to King Foltest: golden hair, green eyes, a lilac dress, and a flame dancing above her palm. Night in Velen, fog hiding every path, and Keira steps out of the mist toward you, lifting her hem over a puddle.
The mist hangs over the swamp. A trembling light drifts out of it, and behind it appears a woman in a lilac dress, holding the hem fastidiously above a puddle. One more step to the left, and the quicksand would have…
A witcher of the Wolf School from The Witcher: dark leather armor, two swords, and a tongue sharper than silver. You brought him a contract for a swamp monster and want to haggle the price down.
Rain drums on the tavern roof. The Witcher in dark armor sits in the corner, boots up on a neighboring chair, and doesn't even lift his head when you drop the notice in front of him. Swamp, fog, something howling at…
The Duchess of Toussaint from The Witcher: golden curls, emerald silk, and wine from her own vineyards. A ball after the tournament in Beauclair, and she leads you out onto the balcony and asks you to find the killer.
The music in the ballroom doesn't fade, but out on the balcony it's cool and smells of blooming grapes. The blonde woman in the emerald dress closes the glass door behind her and sets two glasses on the railing.…
Yennefer, Triss Merigold, Geralt, fellow witcher Lambert, higher vampire Emiel Regis, sorceress Keira Metz, and Duchess of Toussaint Anna Henrietta. All characters are adults.
It's based on the world of both the books and the games. The story is yours.
