The Witcher
Warning : minor spoilers for The Witcher season 3 Part 1 .
AlthoughThe Witcherseason 3 mostly focuses on the Holman Hunt for Ciri , it did n’t get out giant behind , and here ’s every freak Geralt and company encountered in season 3 . The universe ofThe Witcheris quite encompassing and robust , with man , elves , gnome , mages , and more coexist along with a variety of creatures and monsters , which are the reason why witchers exist . Over the course of three season , Geralt has been seen battle all character of colossus , and though some of them almost defeated him , he continues to make a living out of killing monster .
5Jackapace
The first monster viewers conform to inThe Witcherseason 3 is a jackapace . This creature is exclusive to the Netflix TV series , so there ’s no information about it in the books and telecasting game . The jackapace was introduced in the first episode of time of year 3 , where an unknown man was keeping a jackapace prisoner . The man explained to his supporter , an elf , that the jackapace is breed to dog down pixy , which is why it reacted violently when the extremely low frequency got skinny to the threshold to prey it . plain , jackapaces are fed with meat , perhaps human nitty-gritty , and given that they are breed to track down elves , these monsters are most likely a remnant of the meter when imp and humans were at war with each other .
Jackapaces are blind , so they use their sense of smell to smell their milieu , and of row , to locate their aim . The body of a jackapace resembles that of an armadillo , as it ’s able to kink up in a ball either to move quicker or attack its victims . Rience knew all this and ask to use the jackapace to trail Ciri , and for that , he used the ampule with Ciri ’s blood that he steal from Kaer Morhen inThe Witcherseason 2 . unluckily for the jackapace , Ciri was no easy butt , and Yennefer and Geralt used their several skills to kill the monster .
4Flesh Monster
Netflix’sThe Witcherhas seen a variety of lusus naturae , either from the books , video game , or original creation for the serial , and time of year 3 see one of the show ’s most horrifying fauna . When Codringher and Fenn tell Geralt that the mage who was backing Rience resided in Castle Vuilpanne , Geralt travel there to see if he could kill Rience . What Geralt was n’t weigh on was determine out that the “ powerful mage ” backing Rience had been kidnapping young women and experimenting with them . First , Geralt came across three disembodied female heads held up by strands of flesh , and the women asked him to aid them and not hurt them . Geralt later found a physically unharmed lady friend advert Theryn , who claim to be Ciri .
As Geralt attempt to elude with Theryn , he was stopped by a Brobdingnagian , spider - like monster that turned out to be made of the bodies of different women , including those whose point were hanging from the wall . The heads seemed to have some dominance over their body and the colossus and tried to contain Geralt and Theryn from leave . Geralt eventually vote out the monster by kill each body it was made of , which in turn vote out the heads , and he leave Vuilpanne with Theryn . It ’s unknown why the mage ’s experiment let in dismembering bodies and creating a monster with them , but this is by far one of the most gruesome creatures in Netflix’sThe Witcher .
3Otto The Werewolf
When Geralt hire Theryn to Anika , a druid and friend of his mother , he came across Otto , an old acquaintance of his who is now living with Anika . Otto explained to Jaskier that he ’s actually a werewolf , and that ’s how he and Geralt come across . Otto was bite by a wolfman during the plague of ‘ 21 , as he fled into the wilderness to isolate himself in hopes to nullify the disease , but he was attack by a loup-garou . Geralt was hire to defeat him , but instead , the witcher set up a solution to his problem : a medal that , as long as he keeps it closemouthed to him , stops him from transforming into a monster .
When Theryn woke up and went into a enchantment , she attacked Anika and Geralt , and she pulled the decoration from Otto , who began to transform . Geralt got the medallion back and gave it to Otto , preventing his full transformation . Unlike the jackapace and the flesh monster , lycanthrope are part of theWitcherbooks and telecasting game , and those who are born as werewolves are capable to operate their shapeshifting abilities , while those damn or bitten transform only during the full moon ( though that does n’t seem to be Otto ’s case in Netflix’sThe Witcher ) .
2Wyvern
When Ciri was escort around town by Fabio Sachs , they attend to a sideshow where a basilisk was , purportedly , going to be show . However , as Ciri had already trained with Geralt and other witchers in Kaer Morhen , Ciri straightaway hump that the creature the military personnel was preserve in the cage was n’t a basilisk , and it was actually a wyvern . Ciri called him out in front of the whole audience , and the wyvern was accidentally knocked devoid from its John Cage . Just like werewolves , wyverns are part of the widerWitcheruniverse , and they are found in both books and telecasting games .
wivern are endangered creature , and they have ophidian - similar necks , farseeing tails that stop in a venomous trident , and are encompass in dark scales . Wyverns also have wings , and thanks to their sharp tooth , they can easy nobble their quarry while aviate and behave it off to their nest . The wyvern the humans was keeping was actually a child , and while Ciri was doing her best to defend it , once it was freed it attack Ciri and other extremity of the audience . Ciri had no choice but to belt down the wyvern , after which she quickly ran aside with Fabio Sachs to avoid drawing even more attention to herself .
1Aeschna
After Ciri and Geralt reunited following Ciri ’s escape from Yennefer and the women of Aretuza , the princess and the witcher met with Jaskier to journey to Thanedd Island . The three were traveling on a sauceboat , but the police captain refused to sail as there was a devil in the water . Geralt and Ciri made a deal with the captain to get rid of the monster , and once on board , Ciri correctly infer that they were about to combat an aeschna , which was unintentionally drawn to the sauceboat by the medicine of Valdo Marx and company .
An aeschna ( also know as glustyworp ) is a water puppet with ten paws with sharp claws and jaw like cut - saws . The combined efforts of Ciri and Geralt allowed them to defeat the aeschna without any of the passengers of the gravy boat perish , though some of them were injured . Just like the wyvern and the werewolf , the aeschna can be found inThe Witcherbooks and video games .
