Character:

  • King Foltest- the king of Temeria, the overlord of Pontar and Mahakam, the senior protector of Brugge and Sodden. In a nutshell – a big fish and a very important character in the world created by Sapkowski.
  • Geralt- a man who becomes a witcher, protector of the people.

Monsters:

  • Graveir
  • Weyvern
  • Fledder- cahracterized by a bat-like snout vampire-like fangs and an equally bloodthirsty inclination to sink its canines into unsuspecting flesh.
  • Shtriga-she holds too much of a grudge against those characterized by regular respiratory breathing.
  • Kikimore- kikimore is one of the more known monsters, it paradoxically still hides many secrets. At first glance it resembles some sort of colossal spider or other insect but in reality the kikimore has nothing to do with that sort of fauna.
  • Bruxa- one of the rarest and simultaneously most dangerous of the higher vampire.
