Okay so it took me an entire ass game about magical and discriminated monster hunters to realize my Type is men who would definitely bully me for my lunch money? Have I really sunk so low??
Love these additions, especially the Lambert one!
I am presently part of circuit class and it helped remind me of a specific attribute of silver.
Silver is the most conductive metal on earth. Witchers carry a full, 1m+ bar of it sheathed on their back.
If electricity works about the same on the continent as it does in the real world, I think that it would affect Witchers, in some way. Imagine this: fellow stopped by the side of the road to fight some nekkers in the middle of the rain, just to get himself struck by lightning when he dared raise his sword. Though luck surviving that.
It reminded me Geralt hate storms in the games. (as in he always calls out when they start and sounds positively annoyed at them), so what about a hc/AU thingy about Witchers fearing electricity?
By fear, I mean full-on rejection and avoidance of everything that has to do with electricity. I imagine that half-inspired to prevent scenarios like the one presented above, and half by their own personal fear of it, the schools would encourage their students to be scared.
The young ones learn quickly about the dangers of electricity. All are forced to touch a statically charged object with their finger at least once, to distinguish what being shocked feels like, what your hair sticking up with static feels like. The kids are then thought, both by education and the adult’s obvious revulsion, to absolutely hate both.

oh no
Oh No
OH NO

I would imagine, since corporeal punishment was used in keeps, that one of the punishments would be to make a student touch a charged object again. But the instructors hate electricity as much as the students, so it was a rare one.
Lightning storms in keeps are a nightmare. Everyone can’t sleep and no one wants to go higher than the first floor. The keeps are fully reinforced with ceramic, glass, and magical lightning rods but that does not stop the resident’s agitation in any way.
The younger ones are all scared of thunder and the cracking sound of electricity. The older ones are too, they are just better at hiding it. Witchers can withstand these sounds and the visual of it, but if it gets too close, they can’t stop themselves from backing away several feet, flinching or startling.
Horror stories for Witchers tell of their kin being paralyzed by lightning until they slowly died of starvation while the decomposers ate them whole. Of bad children whose skin turned to silver when they misbehaved, then kicked out in the pouring rain. Of sorcerers who torture you slowly with lightning magic.
On the Path, Witchers will hide themselves deep into caves when a thunderstorm rages outside. The sheath of their swords is lined with natural rubber, ceramic, or glass. This I think would be interesting to explore because rubber is native of oriental countries. Technically speaking the sheath would be as, if not more expensive than the sword to make because of importation alone. And both Ceramic and glass have like, a tendency to break? How would it be put onto a sheath, so it does not? Magical glass/ceramic? Sounds expensive as well. Witchers may have to recycle their sheaths like people did book covers before print.
Also did you know some oils have a decent resistivity? Witchers like theirs oils, so I recon they would have one for that too. I’d becon if they’re pretty agitated, they would go as far as to pour some on their heads.
And think of boots; the could have soles made specially to reduce direct conductive contact with the ground. The soles would also be a bitch to make, I reckon, so these need to be recycled as well. Maybe some Witchers are also uneased by the idea of walking bare-feet or without their Special Soles because of the little comfort it offers that you’re less attractive to lightning.
I’d actually thought of a little scenario where ciri shocked Geralt’s hand as an innocent joke. He immediately flinches away at the contact and scurries a few feet. The girl’s very confused as of why her guardian reacts so strongly to it, but the weird, almost fearful face he gives her makes her agree never to do it again.
Another is when it’s her first year in Kaer Morhen and a thunderstorm starts. She’s pulled out of bed by her guardian, who leads her downstairs to join the others. The Wolves huddle together in a corner while the thunder roars outside. Ciri notices how every strike makes Geralt’s fingers around her shoulder twitch. How the men all appear on edge, even Vesemir. She fell asleep somewhere in the night, to wake in the same corner as before. The Witchers have all remained. They do not appear to have slept at all. There was no training session that day.
Lambert is one of those Witchers who’s very uncomfortable walking around without his boots. Both Eskel and Geralt had become agitated by electricity enough to pour oil on themselves some few times. I’d Imagine Geralt poured some on Ciri too when they just begun to travel together and hence Geralt was very stressed about keeping her safe. Eskel is also a bit wary of sorcerers because sorcerers potentially means lightning magic.
I’m not original but I made some Witcher OC based on owls because I love owls! (I also made a dragonfly Witcher down below if you’re interested)
He would be just the Owl Witcher Josef. Like other treasure hunts he would be mentioned in an inventory list written by a servant to his master, who thought Josef was Sketchy and so requested his belongings be checked. The inventory list indicates he carried patents for armor and weapons.
I didn’t really make much research on what boosts it would give but I’d guess the weapons could focus on bleeding/staggering? The armor could focus much the same things as other Witcher gear and maybe some stamina bonuses as well?. (Though, and I know it’s dumb, it giving you bonuses in hand-to hand combat is something I would want because I think it would be funny to fist fight things viably.)
also as a bonus, a much less detailed drangonfly witcher because dragonflies are peak, naturally bioengineered killing machines that I love with my whole heart.
While making Han, pictured here it kind of dawned to me that his mutations would be very different than that of a Witcher.
(This is edge incoming btw)
So, instead of having a Drangonfly school, in my head they’re a specific faction of Witchers made to be a bigger fish rather than someone with a monster hunting profession. Like Dragonflies, they hunt year round of their own will. Their extra mutations make them capable of eating a variety of the monsters they hunt, as to be able to go without needing human food. A sad drawback of this is that some Dragonflies will amount to just eat anything, humanoids included. When this happens they’re deemed too dangerous and are hunted down by other Witchers.
some of their mutations have aim in making them in complete control over nearly every joint they have individually, but the process often messes with their bodies’ nervous systems and gives them tics/nervous reflexes. The mutations also affect the pigment of their skin and their body’s ability to produce hair, so their skin tone ressembles that of Geralt when he drank potions and the hair on them grows patchy and uneven.
Dragonfly Witchers are drifters who mostly unlearned their human behaviors while retaining their application memory. They hunt and that’s basically what they know. though, some blurred memories could sometimes make Dragonfly Witchers migrate towards their previous schools during the winter, though the reason as of why they are drawn there or where the keep is exactly has been forgotten.
In-Game you’d first hear of Han from Vesemir. He says he caught wind about one of the Dragonfly Witchers that came from the Wolf school, though he didn’t believe it at first, thinking all were long gone.
You’re informed Han had begun to hunt humans. You can then follow a Side-quest to go hunt him down, which will give you his entire Dragonfly gear in return, swords included. You also have the option to capture him and attempt to help him, though I deem this could also go bad and you’d have to kill him anyway. You’d also get extra options to ask Vesemir about Han, who had helped train him when he was still following regular training, but had not seen or heard of him since he completed his training. He had assumed, after none had spotted him for decades, that he had just died without a soul to tell, like the rest of his kind.
Update: my Type appears to not be men who would definitely bully me for my lunch money, because it turns out I am, in fact, a Lesbian. My apologies for the confusion.
That being said /women/ who would bully me for my lunch money tho-

Hi there! I made a tad of research and decided to give you guys some links since not all that is shown here leads to the correct place or are now closed off:
first and foremost the illustrations above are from [np.illustrates on instagram], in case the link to the source did not work for you like it did for me.

I have Visited Charity Right’s website and their donation options do not currently give the option to specifically donate to Uyghur refugees, [but feel free to give them a donation if you feel like it] (they have specific donations for Yemen amongst a few others)
The Uyghurs Human Right Project also help on how you can help (mostly if you are American, but there are options for others as well) [You can donate with Paypal!]
Currently the recommended petition shown above on amnesty.org [has closed], but the one on Change.org is still open for signatures. [They also take paypal if you want to give the petition financial support]
if you do not want to donate that’s ok, but please at least read Uyghurs For Sale of you have the time!

Do you guys care for some really bad shitposts? Dosen’t matter, I sketched some and took bad pictures of them anyway.
Plus a pencil drawing of Jaskier wearing “Armor”, or as close to armor as he’ll get`: A Freya Warrior’s armor redesigned to fit his style.
Pictures are captioned if you can’t read my handwriting
I do half finished art, half finished stories half finished everything. Hobbyist. Currently, this was only made so I can bother someone else about The Witcher
