Early in their marriage, you saw that Iris was already discontent with her husband who was more interested in cult-like rituals than reveling in the relationship he so longed for. Even prior to obtaining the so-called “Heart of Stone,” he was a reprehensible individual, killing his own brother for gold. Due to his boisterous nature, Vlodomir is very endearing, which makes his pain at the hands of O’Dimm so needless and his death at the hands of the brother he so loves so dismal.īoth Vlodomir and Iris attest to the status of Olgierd as a right bastard. Though the voice actor remains the same throughout Vlodomir’s occupation, his way of speaking is entirely different and a welcome change from Geralt’s usual sourpuss attitude. While Geralt finds him annoying, Shani, and myself, found him a source of much humor since his possession brought upon a complete change in Geralt’s posture and voice. During this event you get a good sense for Vlodomir, someone whose bark is loud but whose bite is entirely nonexistent, especially when it comes to the ladies. Tasked to solve Olgeird’s three wishes, one of them being to show Vlodomir the time of his life, Geralt allows Vlodomir to occupy his body and accompany former lover Shani to a wedding celebration. “Vlodomir puts on a good show but it is simply a show and nothing more.”Another notable character is Vlodomir von Everec, the deceased brother of antagonist Olgierd who died sometime before Hearts of Stone begins.

Throughout Hearts of Stone, I loved the mystery surrounding him and was glad that CD Projekt Red never gives you too many details surrounding his motivations, full abilities, or origin. Instead, you tread uncertain whether or not O’Dimm will dispose of you or reward you for your actions and help.
During one scene he freezes time and forces a wooden spoon through a man’s eye simply for interrupting his meeting with Geralt.ĭespite his status, you mainly work alongside of (and not against) O’Dimm, so that fear may be present but is never fully enacted upon. O’Dimm is intimidating but fascinating: he is clearly a demon in human form, who finds the beliefs of humans a curiosity, but also inspired fear due to his power over time and space. Quite a few new characters are introduced into Hearts of Stone, most notably Gaunter O’Dimm, aka Master Mirror aka Evil Personified. Geralt is dragged between the two powerful figures not of his own will and has to help shepherd the conflict along to its ultimate resolution, a choice between a man and a demon, in which I surprisingly favored the demon. After making my way through the main campaign of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Hearts of Stone is the first expansion that introduces a new questline centering on Olgierd von Everec, an immortal who has come into conflict with the enigmatic Gaunter O’Dimm.
