The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Artbook

ALLIES AND ACQUAINTANCES
‘I, dear Geralt, know a great deal. That
is, after all, what is suggested by my, as
you humans would put it, academic
title. It is, in full, Aen Saevherne.’
‘A knowing one. A Sage.’
‘Exactly.’
ANDRZEJ SAPKOWSKI, THE TOWER OF THE SWALLOW
Avallac’h
The elf Avallac’h is a highly enigmatic figure.
The taciturn and rather secretive mage seems to
know a great deal about Ciri’s destiny and her
mysterious gift, but is reluctant to share that
knowledge with others. Thus, doubts remain as
to his motives, though one can be certain that,
as an Aen Saevherne—meaning Sage—he wields
tremendous power, commanding abilities far
above and beyond those of any human sorcerer.
We tried to make Avallac’h’s appearance fit these
traits as well as the role he plays in the story.
Cirilla’s mysterious ally is dressed in functional,
well-tailored traveling attire cut according to the
tastes of his race, the Aen Elle elves. He wears
tall, lace-up boots with soft leather soles, a gray
outer cloak decorated with delicate plant motifs,
and a hood that covers his head. A scarf is
wrapped around his shoulders and a leather belt
sits around his waist with a small bag attached to
it. A touch accentuating the somewhat different
tastes of elven fashion is the slightly asymmetric
cut to his clothing, which gives it a rather exotic
look.
