Count de Wett

Count de Wett is one of King Foltest’s advisors in The Witcher who secretly renews the striga curse on Princess Adda and dies at Geralt’s hand.

Count Roderick de Wett is a nobleman in Vizima in The Witcher and one of the advisors close to King Foltest. He is also a close confidant of Princess Adda, which makes his betrayal of her all the more poisonous.

In The Witcher

Geralt first meets De Wett in Act III at Declan Leuvaarden‘s reception at the New Narakort in A Posh Reception. He plays dice poker, and after the reception he can be found on the upper floor of the Trade Quarter guardhouse.

In Act V, Adda turns into a striga again, and in Her Highness the Striga Foltest asks Geralt to consult his advisors: Triss Merigold, Velerad and De Wett. De Wett insists that the dynasty is cursed because Adda was born of incest, and he hints that killing the striga would pay better than curing her. In Adda’s sarcophagus in the chapel of the swamp cemetery, Geralt finds Ostrit’s journal, which someone has used as a template to cast the curse again.

The truth comes out at the Old Manor in Sweet Revenge, where De Wett inadvertently reveals that he cursed Adda. Geralt fights and kills him, and finds a Salamandra brooch and experiment notes on his body.
