Blue Stripes

The Blue Stripes are an elite Temerian Special Forces military unit headed by Vernon Roche. The unit consists of dauntless swashbucklers, interrogation specialists, noiseless scouts – all of them extremely loyal to their leader.

So far the Blue Stripes unit has suffered only one failure – they haven't managed to capture the infamous bandit Iorveth.

The fate of the Blue Stripes
After a successful raid on La Valette Castle, the unit sets off on a journey with Geralt of Rivia to find the real kingslayer.

Roche's Path
During their stay in Flotsam, Bernard Loredo's collusion with Kaedwen is discovered. Roche, disgusted by the man's treachery, decides to thwart his plans and raid his mansion. With Geralt's assistance, the Blue Stripes succeed. Soon afterwards, they set sail to support Henselt's campaign against Aedirn over Lormark.

To Roche's despair, during their stay at Henselt's side, the entire unit is accused of participating in the square coin conspiracy against the king. They are hanged on Dethmold's order, with only Ves surviving after enduring rape at the hands of Henselt.

Iorveth's path
Without the witcher's aid, Vernon's plan of overthrowing Bernard Loredo had no chance of success and thus, the unit had to flee Flotsam.
