Vetala

An intelligent, talking ghoul is a rarity. And yet from time to time one encounters a specimen that ruins the reputation of the rest of the species by soliloquising over dead bodies and engaging in cogent discussions with witchers. Rumour has it that evolution equipped Vetala with a dangerous weapon: he can talk people to death. That rumour is not necessarily an exaggeration.

He can be found feasting on remains, in the ruined church in the centre of the cemetery in Chapter III and again in Chapter V in a safe house in the Temple Quarter.

Journal entry

 * Vetala is a mythical beast, invented by the common people. Tales about him are typical examples of urban legend, spread by word of mouth, which grow increasingly fantastic with each retelling. Vetala is believed to be an intelligent ghoul or graveir who lives in the city cemetery as the absolute ruler among scavengers. Not only does Vetala speak the human language, he is also known for his sophisticated manners. Vetala is said to prefer corpses over living flesh. He rarely attacks humans and demonstrates unusual courtesy on the rare occasions when he does.


 * I met a talking ghoul, a real freak of nature.


 * If Geralt decides to kill Vetala:
 * I decided to kill him, for despite his eloquence he was still a monster, a threat to humans. And I'm a witcher.
