Witcher Eskel of the school of the wolf. In Today's video I talk about the witcher of the school of the wolf witcher eskel. I will discuss Eskel's origins, before both the witcher books and the witcher games and then tell you his full story through out both the witcher books and the witcher games. I also fill in some gaps in eskels story, that were added in extra witcher lore. I also go over what eskel did before the witcher 3, as eskel has actually had a few known solo adventures. One involving a succubus and another involving a higher vampire! Today I will discuss everything we know about eskel, like eskels and geralts relationship, as well as his relationship with the other school of the wolf witchers vesemir, lambert and leo. I also go over eskels surprise child in the witcher 1 DLC.
The Witcher® 3: Wild Hunt is a story-driven, next-generation open world role-playing game, set in a visually stunning fantasy universe, full of meaningful choices and impactful consequences. You play as Geralt of Rivia, a monster hunter tasked with finding a child from an ancient prophecy.
Geralt of Rivia, is a witcher, or monster hunter for hire, a white-haired and cat-eyed legend in his own time. Trained from early childhood and mutated to gain superhuman skills, strength and reflexes, witchers like Geralt are a natural consequence of and counterbalance to the monster-infested world in which they live. As Geralt, you’ll embark on an epic journey in a war-ravaged world that will inevitably lead you to confront a foe darker than anything humanity has faced so far-the Wild Hunt.
Built exclusively for next-generation hardware, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt marks a new era in RPG visual quality. Raising the bar for the entire genre, with its deeply integrated 5.1 audio and jaw-dropping graphics powered by CD PROJEKT RED’s proprietary REDengine 3, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt promises an entirely new kind of experience.

Hey, WitcherGeorge, I wanted to say this was an amazing showcase of a character's story. Can't wait for you to do Regis for example. Also, I've one more question. How do you make third person recordings in a game, while game still running? Is that a feature of Ansel I don't know about, or is this a mod of some sort? Thanks!

Eskel is Geralt's brother from another mother. He's not nearly as well-known as Geralt, but he is said to be Geralt's equal, in other words an extremely proficient witcher and swordsman. Edit: By the way, they did say something about Eskel and Lambert's whereabout after TW3, in the 10-year anniversary video by CDPR. In that, Geralt states that Lambert practically lives with him in Corvo Bianco (Geralt's vineyard in Toussaint) and that Eskel and Lambert both mainly take contracts nearby Corvo Bianco. So, essentially the School of the wolf relocated to Toussaint and are as of now based in Corvo Bianco

It's possible, in a sense, to kill a higher vampire by destroying their body. Regis was killed by Vilgefortz in the books, and Geralt can kill Detlaff in Blood & Wine. The catch is that their consciousness survives somehow and they can be brought back to life by other higher vampires. The only way for them to permanently die is if another higher vampire kills them.

It would have been 100 times cooler if they woulda showed him getting cured and then they all went to hunt down the leshen. The witchers know monsters. Thats what they do. Eskel doesnt act like himself in the episode. Plus if netflix plans to show the battle of kher morhan with the wild hunt they need eskel alive. I’m sure the series will eventually focus on cirilla exclusively. Bummer Guess thats hollywood for ya

What was interesting about Eshkol for me, he really tried to learn more and studied a monster he killed inside Kear Morhen. His approuch was also that he is a simple witcher not hanging out with royals. I would actually loved to see a witch helping him heal his scar in a way or make it less ugly. He seemed to have a nice spirit, and in contrast to bitter Lambert he was a more approachable friend for Geralt.

A underused character that ends up being a fan favourite. I think eskells story along with vesimer could a direction books, games and spin off shows. In particular vesimer his history could well be the route for a game (witcher 4). That in part allows stories especially eskillles to allow the witcher franchise to move forward. Your video shows the character needs more airtime.

I do think Eskel would be a great protagonist for another Witcher game, mostly because he's like a second Geralt but without all the backstory and personal drama.

After watching this video and thinking on it, I'd like a Witcher 4 game in which the player can create their own Witcher and then be trained by Eskel, Geralt and Lambert. As you stated, the game could ultimately be about rebuilding the School of the Wolf but from the perspective of a rook, having the OG characters act as guides
