The World of
the Witcher
“People,” Geralt turned his head, “like to invent monsters and
monstrosities. Then they seem less monstrous themselves. When they
get blind-drunk, cheat, steal, beat their wives, starve an old woman,
when they kill a trapped fox with an axe or riddle the last existing
unicorn with arrows, they like to think that the Bane entering cottag-
es at daybreak is more monstrous than they are. They feel better then.
They find it easier to live.”
–Andrzej Sapkowski, The Last Wish
The Witcher role playing game is set in a
world of dark, adult fantasy where happy
endings are rare and actions have conse-
quences, often swift and brutal.
In the war-torn lands of the Conti-
nent, murder, assault, and theft are a daily
threat and only the strong survive. Thieves
run rampant and mercenaries are as nu-
merous as the doctors who heal them or
the priests who inter them. Only the brav-
est souls venture into the wilderness, where
witchers armed with razor-sharp silver
swords hunt monsters armed not only with
tooth and claw but magic as well.
In the cities, the poor scrabble to
survive in filthy tenements and the rich
perch high above on the unstable towers of
their power, some advised by clever mages
constantly looking for the best opportuni-
ties. Humans reign supreme, save for a few
small communities. Once-proud elves and
dwarves are kept in hovels and executed dai-
ly, often for crimes they have not even com-
mitted. Hatred and fear fuel this great blaze,
and most will continue feeding the fire ‘til
their last dying breath. There are no heroes,
only people.
Whether you’re a hard-bitten mer-
cenary who lives from job to job never ask-
ing questions, or an idealistic bard traveling
the land to spread some cheer and revelry in
these dark days, you must fight if you want
to survive in a world determined to break
you. Though happy endings are rare, the
darkness makes the joyful moments all the
sweeter, and companionship is one of the
greatest treasures that you can attain. For
better or worse, this is your world.
If you took a look through the
Table of Contents, you may
have noticed that this book has
a fairly large
Game Master’s
Guide.
All of that is dedicated
to teaching new Game Masters
(GMs) and helping long-time
GMs run games in this dark
and gritty world. The Witch-
er is a ‘Dark Fantasy.’ Unfor-
tunately, all too often dark
fantasy just gets boiled down
to “fantasy where everyone
dies and nothing good ever
happens.” That’s not the case
for The Witcher. Its strength
as a world is contrasting dark
and horrific danger with brief
moments of genuine joy and
revelry. So if you want to get a
better idea for the setting of this
TRPG or how a game in the
world of The Witcher should
go, head on back to the
World
section on pg.179 or the
Game
Master’s Guide
on pg.211.
Dark Fantasy,
Witcher Style
Luckily, the Witcher TRPG
only needs two types of dice!
You’ll need ten-sided dice
and six-sided dice to play the
game.
