| “ | Evil is evil, Stregobor, "said the witcher seriously as he got up." Lesser, greater, middling, it's all the same. Proportions are negotiated, boundaries blurred. I’m not a pious hermit. I haven't done only good in my life. But if I’m to choose between one evil and another, then I prefer not to choose at all. | „ |

Summary
The Witcher (Polish: Wiedźmin), written by Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski, is a fantasy series of short stories and novels about the witcher Geralt of Rivia. In Sapkowski's books, "Witchers" are monster hunters who (with rigorous training and body modification/mutations through the Trial of the Grasses) develop supernatural abilities at a young age to battle deadly monsters. It is also the title of the game series which continue the story of the books in own interpretation of game developers CD Projekt Red. The series are known because of the vast world and content, heavy moral nuance and choices with consequences and depth of characters.
The verse is quite strong physically, with majority of it's strongest characters capping at Building level+, with Blood and Wine taking it a step further to Large Building level+ via mutations which amplify Geralt's powers threefold. The weaker characters, such as normal humans like Vernon Roche or lower tier monsters cap on Small Building level at their lowest. Speed of the characters is for the most part Subsonic movement speed with Massively Hypersonic+ combat speed and reactions.
It also has a notable number of storm creation feats from the Wild Hunt and various sorcerers, and Djiins are rumored to be able to move mountains with their wishes, and they easily summon natural lightning and even summon extremely large storms. Some proficient sorcerers can also summon decently sized meteors and make huge explosions. The verse also has its fair share of hax, with various forms of Mind Manipulation, BFR, Perception Manipulation, Illusion Creation, Curse Manipulation or even Fate Manipulation and Reality Warping with the use of magic.
Gaunter O'Dimm, the most powerful known character in the verse, has a large number of reality-warping abilities, such as control over time, soul removal, control over the concept of "evil" and wish granting, and likely many more unknown abilities.
