A cosplayer recently showed off an impressive rendition of Triss Merigold fromThe Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Geralt of Rivia has no shortage of enemies throughout theWitcherseries, which makes his few allies all the more valuable. One of the most prominent is Triss, a powerful Temerian sorceress and former lover of the White Wolf who appears in all three of theWitchergames in addition to the originalWitchernovels. Her most recent mainline gaming appearance was inThe Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, where she accompanies the player on many key quests.
Thanks to both her importance in Geralt’s life and her interesting backstory that spans the lore of all three mainlineWitcherentries, Triss is hugely popular amongThe Witcherfans. Some of these players have even managed torecreate her differentWitcher 3outfits, either as a physical cosplay or by modeling a character after her in other RPGs likeBaldur’s Gate 3.
One recent example comes from Reddit user and cosplayer CarryKey, who has dressed up as other iconic gaming characters like Morrigan fromDarkstalkersandJinx fromLeague of Legendsand its connectedArcaneseries. They shared some of their most recent work on r/witcher with a photo of themselves in Triss’s battle attire fromThe Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, consisting of an orange, blue, and white jacket with burgundy sleeves and Triss’s tied red hair. Other Reddit users have praised the cosplay.
