The Witcher Fandom - Tumblr Posts

hey, let's become mutuals!

I'm Teddy and I'm helplessly in love with the witcher universe. I read the first two witcher books, played Witcher 3 and watched the series. I'm currently reading the third book, a ton of fanfiction, replaying Witcher 3 and I'm trying to play Witcher 2 (trying because my computers laging).

My favorite characters are the witchers (meaning Geralt, Lambert, Eskel, Vesemir and Ciri), Regis and Dettlaff, Emhyr and Mererid, Ivoreth, Olgierd and a few more

I ship a few straight ships, gay ones and polyamorous ships. But my all time OTP will always be Geralt x Regis haha

So please.. if you want to talk about the Witcher univers, characters or just want a meme exchange; hit me up.

I'm really in need of somebody to talk about the topic ahahaha

ps.. none of this pictures are mine-

Okay so.. I actually enjoyed Nightmare of the Wolf?? Am I the only one?

Spoilers ahead ig

also don't expect too many words or idk poetry, I'm sick and still crying.. because yes, I cried like the whole second half of the movie.. ever since Luca- :(

The art, the sceneries, the music and the general setting was beautiful, ngl.. also the landscapes? Holy..

I also love Vesemirs character development but I can also understand why he was so 'greedy' in the first place?? I dunno but it makes sense as to why he later is the way he is..

I can also kinda understand Tetra although she was a bit extreme.. Kitsu on the other hand is baby-

I wish we could have seen/learned more of Fils and Vesemirs relationship tho.. or in general more about Fil (to be honest he heavily reminded me of Avallac'h)

Another smol detail I also thought was cool were the witcher belt chains?? Like dis is actually smart-

Also bald queen Geralt with freckles?? Yes please.. also yes please to all the witchers with disabilities!!! Only having one arm or scars or whatever doesn't make you less worth of anything.. I mean look at Sven! Casting those spells like a pro!

I always imagined the sacking of Kaer Morhen differently but I 'liked' their interpretation. Even tho I've seen people say things like "oh it was too weak" or "in the books Geralt almost never struggled with a monster why couldn't they just slay them?" I have some opinions on that:

First of all, Geralt is canonly stronger than most witchers and he also (excuse me if this is only fanon) outlived extra trials which made him 'better' than other witchers

Second, the beasts were controlled by Kitsu and she summoned a few hundred monsters, if not more.. she also summoned not only ghouls or wights but also basilisks and a dragon like being, along with tons of other, maybe even new mutated monsters.. also the witchers had little to no time to prepare, plus they were also attacked by villagers, guards and mages. The witchers were easily outnumbered.. in general it might have only been one against 5-10, something most witchers could have handeled in a different situation. But it was not "one person has so and so many enemies and nobody else is allowed to attack", it was a war-like situation. Also, remember the first fight against the griffin in The Witcher 3? I would dare to say we all struggled there for the first time and it was a good thing we had Vesemir there to help. Now imagine them, some of them maybe even being still slightly drunk because it was a surprise attack... in conclusion, I really liked this version of the sacking.. I dislike the general timeline, as Vesemir was supposed to already be a teacher/master.. und I also thought Geralt and Eskel were already on the path but well we can't have everything ig-

Quick edit/extra bc I've seen some ppl talk about this and I want to clarify something:

The sacking itself, who fought, who was involved, the fight.. the whole thing in itself is portraied in a way I 'like'

What I dislike is the way they made the witchers responsible for this. It should be about fear and therefore hate about unknown things, not because the witchers actually 'produced' monsters

Not all Witchers are like Geralt, as he is the exception from the rule. Most of them are not friendly or care about other beings. They do their profession and want to be paid for it.. they don't like to get emotionally involved. And their "coldness" is why normal folk hated them, besides them being very powerful and unpredictable.

The movie portraied the progrom as if the witchers, a minority, are at fault and as if the sacking is justified.. not because the bigger part of folks always hated and feared what was different from them, regardless of the witchers just wanting to live their lifes too

For most people in the Witcher Universe, witchers are no different from the monsters they slay and because of that they should have attacked and not because of the minority (or better one witcher and one mage out of all of them) that breeds what they vowed to kill

The Witcher Netflix Season 2 Spoilers!

Some things I just need to get out of me:

• I disliked most of it if you ask me as a Witcher Fan. It not canon, not at all. They did so many things wrong or executed them the wrong way or idk.. only like one or two thirds were based on the books, which is really a shame since the books already have a very good, compact story and wouldn't need big changes to make it into a good series.

• if you ask me as a person who knows nothing about Witcher lore, it was a good season. The cinematic aspect was phenomenal, the acting was on spot and the story line was okay (a bit shaky tho)

• also Joeys new songs slap so hard omfg espacially Burn, Butcher, Burn and Whoreson Prison Blues are so good.. he also got more Dandelion the episode (which I love)

• I also really loved Cöen, Lambchop (so cute) and Vesemir.. they were all executed very well and I basically fell in love with them all over again

•Eskel tho? Ohhohoho we really need to talk about my boi beCAUSE WTF DID THEY DO TO HIM??? why him?? why not one of the 15 other (mostly nameless witchers) who died in the end anyways???

• also his character?? Like wtf that was not him at all. He was like the politest witcher soul ever in the books, a total sweetheart with a big scar in his face, scary, scruffy looks and an ugly voice.. this bitch tho? Not Eskel. Nah, won't accept it.

• New headcanon: Eskels still alive somewhere out there

• btw witchers.. what went wrong with the contact lenses? Did they spend all their bdget on Rience's one eye? Or on Yenns ugly ass unrealistic lookin violet ones? Love that Cöen had two different eyes but the rest.. only one with special eyes was Geralt

•apropro special.. wtf was that with the bruxa in the beginning? Since when can they fly? Right, never, they also don't have a bat form or can move round like that thing did

• Okay but back to the boys.. oha emotional rollercoaster omfg. Why were there 20 witchers? They were supposed to be like 5 at max.. also why make them if kill them in the end anyways??

• killing btw, I wouldn't have blamed Vesimir for killing Ciri.. he lost his sons, she or, better, Baba Yaga killed them.. it would have been the lesser evil to kill Ciri if it would have killed Baba Yaga too (also the show is a shitsshow this or that way, wouldn't have been surprised if smt like that happened)

• apropros killing his sons.. Vesemir was left broken by Eskels death. And Geralt? Supposedly best friend and closest brother of Eskel? He KILLED him and wasn't even half as sad as the rest of his brothers.. he killed his damn horse which he changes like dirty underclothes and was sadder about it than killing his own brother. He didn't even give Vesemir the time to mourn or say his last goodbyes.. "the wolfs are coming" stfu u stupid worthless excuse of a brother, u know what, you didn't deserve Eskel

• also ppl saying "oh he was such a good father" like no??? In the first half of the season he was literally a dudebro to Ciri, not a father.. even in the end he still called her Cirila wtf

•okay okay goddamn I'm angry but enough bout the boys... Jaskier, Cöen, Lambert and Vesemir, y'all have my love.. oh and I really dislike Triss because she's a pick me and toxic in general (based on the series, books and games; same as Yennefer) but I really liked her cute grandfather-granddaughter relationship she had with Vesemir (like in the books yk)

• ok so finally smt else than the bois

• fuck streggobor. Won't elaborate why, should be clear as daylight, if not wtf is wrong with you

• kinda besides the point but also like why tf did they make all the bad guys so hot? Like.. Vilgefortz, Rience, Dijkstra.. omfg Philippa, my bi hearts exploding

• all my love to Cöen, Vesemir, Jaskier and Lambert, thanks for caring the season my kings

• also liked/loved Ciri, Filavandrel, Cahir to a certain point and Istreed wasn't bad either.. am I missing smb?

• oh also liked Djikstra and Philippa.. both are characters that you dislike so much you start to like them again.. mostly bc of their sarcasm and general attitude

• kinda paniced when they were about to execute Cahir ngl.. like wouldn't put it behind them to ruin the Hansa as well

• which, speaking of, I am SO SCARED of what will happen to them because technically, if the books count anyhow, they will be introduced in the next season

• omfg if they ruin Regis, if they ruin my poor old sweet humanistic vampire man, I'll idk what I will do but it won't be good

• but lets face it, everything Netflix did to the witcher is not Canon, at least not as a whole.. it can be could as a meh executed fanfiction but not as canon lore, thanks

• anything else?

• oh I HATE HATE HATE what they did to Eskel, did I already mention this?

• like wtf wolf witcher bros, ya most polite and quite brother makes a 180 degree character turn and you won't even notice?

• because its sure as hell not like insecure little bitch, scar faced, ugly voice ass eskel to bring whores to Kaer Morhen

• or to just punsh Geralt in the face??? ( I mean same but still)

• gosh I am still angry and I watched this like 12 hours ago

• okay okay now, fr anything else?

• the baba yaga story was kinda cool but not totally fitting and not really needed

• OH ALSO WTF I WANTED AN OLD EMHYR NOT THAT YOUNG MF AGAIN

• btw love Cöens smallpox scars

• I think I'm done.. for now

• oh wait, I also dislike muscular abs bard but its kinda funny that he's just as buff as Geralt in that ugly ass muscle armour

• ohhh btw love that they included Yarpen, thought they forgot him and almost lost my faith :)

• but again also mad aF bc of Eskel but this time because of that stupid as funeral.. like at least burn him, like a grand witcher should be treated and don't let the wolfs feast on him? What was he, dog food or a monster slayer? Wheres your respect to traditions Netflix? Traditions Sapkowski obviously choose for a reason because they excist in our world too

• oh holy melitele I hope to idk who that Sapkowski won't watch this

• apropro Melitele, loved Neneke too, ma old sweet, badass lady

• guess thats it for real now.. might do another post if I can think about more things I dislike

Maybe it is just me... but there are 5! Witcher Fandoms.

1.) Book Fandom

2.) Game Fandom

3.) Polish Show Fandom

4.) Netflix Fandom

And

5.) Fanfiction Fandom

Just... Am I wrong? They have such major differences in character traits and storyline! Tell me what you think💙

I decided to draw the Witcher medallion and add a twist! I know that canonically Jaskier isn’t a main character… but in the Witcher Fanfiction Universe he has a huge role and I love him💛

Just completely enraptured with this!!💙
