Professional Monster Hunter

Witchers are mutants, men subjected to gruelling training and flesh-altering experiments that prepare them for one purpose: to kill monsters. Geralt was forged at the elite School of the Wolf and is considered one of the deadliest witchers ever trained. He possesses superhuman reflexes and strength, and his sword fighting skills are second to none.

May
Assault on Kaer Morhen
On the day of the festival of Belleteyn, Geralt of Rivia — believed by many to be dead — suddenly appeared near the fortress of Kaer Morhen, the home of the Wolf School of witchers. Geralt had lost his memories and was being pursued by the Wild Hunt, but had managed to survive thanks to the… Read more

Into the Heart of Temeria
Following the tracks left behind by the organization, Geralt managed to close in on the Salamandra in the outskirts of the Temerian capital, Vizima. Geralt became caught up in the schemes and plans of many people in the area, and among other feats succeeded in slaying a vicious monster that… Read more
July
Escape from Vizima
Azar Javed had gotten wind of Geralt’s work with Raymond, and through his alchemical expertise, Javed used the power of an illusion spell to don Raymond’s identity, after disposing of the detective personally. Through this guise, Javed was able to coerce Geralt, leading to an ambush in the swamps.… Read more
August
The End of the Salamandra
During his stay in Murky Waters, tensions rose between the Scoia'tael and the Order of the Flaming Rose, and Geralt was faced with a tough decision. He could either choose to support one side over the other — or not get involved with either. Following this decision, Geralt returned to Vizima —… Read more
September
The King’s Protector
It came to light that the Grand Master of the Order of the Flaming Rose was behind the Salamandra all along. He had been using the witchers' secret knowledge of mutation to raise his own army of mutants in order to usher in a new age. Geralt was able to succeed in preventing this… Read more

Assassination of King Foltest
Geralt participated in the siege of La Valette Castle, commanded by King Foltest himself. However, the king was once again targeted by an assassin, and though Geralt had prevented his assassination once before, this time he was too late. Having been found next to the dead king, Geralt was… Read more
Restoring Geralt's Memories (1)
Geralt, accused of murdering the king, is subjected to torture during his imprisonment at La Valette Castle. The shock of that experience caused him to recall fragments of memories lost before May 1270. He was able to remember being saved by a gray-haired girl just before he and Yennefer… Read more

In Good Company
In the town of Flotsam, Geralt reunited with his old companions Dandelion the bard and the dwarven war veteran Zoltan Chivay — after managing to save them both from the hangman’s noose. Not long into his stay, Geralt butted heads with a man called Bernard Loredo, the corrupt, brutish… Read more
Restoring Geralt's Memories (2)
Geralt recalled himself and Yennefer being rescued from the rioting in Rivia by a girl called Ciri. Ciri took Geralt and Yennefer to a mysterious island, but disappeared soon thereafter — just in time to avoid the sudden arrival of the Wild Hunt. These spectral, wraith-like warriors took Yennefer and… Read more
June
King Saver
Depending on his previous choices, Geralt arrived in Upper Aedirn with either Roche or Iorveth. The ongoing war between King Henselt of Kaedwen and the rebels — being led by Saskia, the "Virgin of Aedirn" -- made it difficult for Geralt to track down the Kingslayers. An assassin appeared before… Read more
Restoring Geralt's Memories (3)
Geralt recalled a memory of traveling the world in pursuit of the Wild Hunt. This one contained recollections of his rescue of Yennefer — a memory that brought with it the deep sense of love Geralt felt for the raven-haired sorceress.
Restoring Geralt's Memories (4)
Surprisingly, some of the memories that returned to Geralt involved the Kingslayers. Geralt recalled that he had previously saved the life of a man named Letho; a witcher of the Viper School — the same Letho who would later become one of the Kingslayers, and the person who accused Geralt of… Read more
July
Face to Face With a Kingslayer
A meeting between the rulers of the Northern Realms, the Nilfgaardian Empire — as well as representatives from the fallen Chapter and Council of Mages — was held in the ruins of Loc Muinne. Geralt finally tracked down Letho, the last of the assassins, where it was revealed that the Kingslayers had… Read more
Restoring Geralt's Memories (5)
As Geralt came face to face with Letho, this time as enemies, a new memory came back to him. Geralt and Letho had reached the King of the Hunt and had found Yennefer. Geralt offered himself to the Wild Hunt in exchange for Yennefer's freedom. Yennefer was freed and Geralt became a member… Read more

War Has Arrived
The Nilfgaardian Empire declared war on the Northern Realms, engulfing the Continent into the chaos of open conflict once more.

A New Adventure Begins
Armies ravaged the land and monsters stalked the highways between towns both day and night. Daily life, already fraught with enough challenges for most, was thrust into even greater difficulties. Hope and freedom was a rare commodity, with the flames of war a constant presence on the horizon… Read more
