If you were worried that one of your favorite characters from CD Projekt Red's The Witcher series of games wouldn't make it into the upcoming Netflix show, never fear, as one of those involved in the show's production has now tweeted out a list of characters who will make an appearance and all of the major players are there. Better yet, they even highlighted what they believe those characters to be like, giving fans hope that the writers and creators have a good idea of how to portray them.
And now, all in one handy thread... #TheWitcher characters.
GERALT IS:
Stoic.
Circumspect.
Balanced.
Fierce.

Released by series showrunner, Lauren Hissrich on Twitter, the list of The Witcher characters includes:
- Geralt
- Yennefer
- Ciri
- Roach
- Jaskier
- Triss
- Cahir
- Regis
- Vilgefortz
- Emhry
- Milva
- Leo Bonhart
- Villentretenmerth
That's a pretty healthy list, suggesting that we'll see all of them at some point in the show. Although, as PCGN points out, we don't know when the show will be set, it's expected to follow the books rather than the games, so will start from the beginning and work from there, giving the show plenty of scope to expand through multiple seasons in the years to come.
