ABOUT THE ADVENTURE
The Temerian capital of Vizima has fallen under a tidal wave of black and gold. You were there. You saw everything. The Black Ones didn’t even bother lobbing rotten cows and soldier’s heads over the walls. The Nilfgaardian war machine hit the walls of the capital and suddenly everything was blood and steel. Screaming and death. You managed to drag yourself out of that hell and head north.

With Nilfgaardian scouting patrols hounding the few survivors of the massacre you’ve stopped recognizing the deep forest and rural towns you’re passing through. Only when you hit the swamp did you realize you were near the Pontar River. Now all that’s left is to cross and look for shelter in Redania.

ABOUT THE SYSTEM

The Witcher Pen & Paper RPG allows you to tell your own story in the world of The Witcher! Adventure across the Continent, interacting with living legends and influencing the politics of the land! Fight in the brutal and horrific Third Nilfgaardian War. Or play out your own adventure as you avoid death and dismemberment!
