remember when one of the main quests of da2 act 3 was you, regardless of where your loyalties lie, being made to chase down blood mages for meredith. like a templar hunting dog!
Might take a break from day to day/finalising SHARON'99, and take the ol' Slay ita bag out for dessert! There's a cute as hell shop that I hope still exists..🍰✨️🦇 #SlayerGuiltyGear
So we know from TW3 storyline with the Mad Witcher Kiyan that a lot of the cat school is made up of Witchers with Elven origins. But I’ve never seen anyone mention that this could be the reason they tend to be more unstable? Essentially they use mutations meant for humans (presumably) on descendants of elves and it’s probably a bit fucked. We know elven and human ancestry can physically mess up a person, like is shown with Yennefer, so were most of these trainees physically disabled in some capacity when they were brought to the Cat School? Is that why more schools didn’t adopt this method? Does it have to do with them being slightly closer to the Source and having a bit of chaos themselves which makes them more prone to mental illness? Thinking of Eskel being shown to have proficiency in signs due to his inclination to magic, it seems unlikely. So it must be something more physical/emotional. I don’t know, just pondering. Also, we under appreciate Kiyan as a fandom, please give this poor lad some love, I beg you.
Something occurred to me about how the Research Patients hero-worshipping Lady Maria and just. Do you think she went around the place offering solace to the patients (when they could still see her) in her Hunter's garb ala those actors who dress up like their characters to visit sick patients in hospitals irl?
Cause out of the all the Hunters, Maria's fit is among the most fancy and she is really selling the "Girl Prince"/"Knight in Shining Armor" aesthetic with it so I can see her being really popular amongst the townspeople back in the heyday of the Hunters. So even after quitting the Hunt her Look probably inspired a lot of comfort for the patients who feel like they're drowning.
