Highest vampires

[@Tasuofrivia]

It seems among Vampires there are two kinds of “higher vampires.” The Novigrad serial killer claimed to be a higher, but once he is killed he doesn’t regenerate and fully die. So he isn’t biologically a true higher vampire, but he shows intelligence similar to a human like an actual higher. So I guess the two “higher vampires” are like 1. Those who shown human intelligence but can be killed normally. 2. Those who shown human intelligence but can regenerate from lethal wounds and only can be killed by another higher vampire

[@MitchJohnson0110]

higher vampires < Higher Vampires

[@qdllc]

Dean Heng - Higher vampires can’t be “killed” by ordinary means, but the books established the following... That they can be rendered inert if sufficiently injured. Regis was “killed” by villagers thanks to his intoxication with human blood. He spent 50 years in the ground before he regenerated to the point that he could leave the grave. Regis was again “killed” in the final book when Vilgefortz collapsed a pile of rubble upon him and essentially used magic to melt it into slag. This would likely have kept Regis from ever regenerating had Dettlaff not arrived and did what he did to restore Regis. So, maybe Orianna and the coroner in Novigrad are higher vampires, and would eventually reappear once they’ve had enough time to regenerate. Likewise, if you damaged a higher vampire enough, while they would not truly be “dead,” they would be rendered harmless indefinitely.

Their speed must be massively supersonic. In Witcher lore, Geralt is described many times to be super fast, faster than eyes can see, and Bruxas are even faster than him.

Tuga que gosta de Witcher Não acredito, e eu a pensar que era o unico

[@Inkspeckle]

I think Orianna is a "sophisticated" Bruxa, in the same vein that the Coroner is a more sophisticated Katakan. Higher Vampires to someone hunting them (like a witcher) most likely means something akin to the vampire having at least human levels of intelligence, the ability to reason, and possibly even blend in with normal humans, whereas "lesser" vampires are essentially just beasts with vampiric features. It would make sense for witchers to classify them this way, as it makes a huge difference in fighting them. Fighting something that runs on animal instinct is very different from fighting something with the ability to ambush, reason, and make calculated attacks. True Higher Vampires being a distinct race might not even be widely known among non-vampires, as they are 1) exceedingly rare 2) extremely difficult to detect unless they reveal themselves voluntarily and 3) an all around secretive people. So it's possible the confusion stems from the fact that a lot of monster-hunters, witchers etc. can't really know the inherent differences between say a highly advanced Bruxa or Katakan because vampires themselves make a point of not revealing it. After all, a Bruxa taken for a (more powerful) True Higher Vampire is not gonna correct that mistake, since it likely means less people willing to hunt her, and True Higher Vampires have no reason to correct the confusion themselves - why give humans an advantage hunting their kin? I think vampires don't make as much of a "class distinction" among themselves, as long as the other vampire is able to reason and communicate. Dettlaff especially is said to prefer "lesser" vampire kin to the company of humans. And it would make sense for a people who have effectively been exiled from their homeworld to share more of a bond with others of their kind, even if they're not exactly the same species of vampire. In short, I don't think it's contradictory for Orianna to be a highly sophisticated Bruxa as opposed to a True Higher Vampire. Pretty sure personality matters more to someone like Regis than something as superficial as race or class anyway.

[@overlordmgcover2262]

I like this take.

[@2KXMKR]

I seem to remember randomly encountering Bruxae during the Blood and Wine DLC, either before or after Dettlaff's invasion. It's been a while... but I distinctly remember randomly talking to the women wearing hoods/cloaks only to hear a shrill giggle, the cloak falling to the ground and then a fight. It may be a rare encounter, but I distinctly remember it and being caught completely off guard. In fact, that makes me think it was before the invasion as I had no idea what it was at the time.

[@yancieb]

Yep it was before Night of The Fangs mission. Theres a few of those women that are constantly walking around the town (might only be during night) and you can encounter them in the wilds across the map. I think its only a chance of them revealing themselves when you talk to them cause it only happened to me a couple times out of all of the hooded when I spoke too. The one that surprised me the most was the woman that ambushed me at an old abandoned castle while I was looking for Witcher Diagrams. I figured she was going to give me a quest or something.

[@edgarp66]

I remember coming across a bruxa for the first time in toussant. Just wondering around “minding my own”.. i heard her crying by the orchard/grave (whatever it was) then i talked to her because she was in front of the chest. After talking to her she disappeared and i went the treasure ... as soon as I was done with the treasure BOOM KILLED!! What a fun experience! Lmao!

[@CMTechnica]

Personally of the belief Oriana is a true higher vampire. I don’t really buy the theories of her and the doctor from Novigrad being lesser while at the same time having a human form that fools a large portion of the playerbase (strictly talking about the serial killer side quest and reactions on the Witcher 3 subreddit) Truth be told, we don’t know all too much about the vampires, and it very well could be a mislabel on CDPRs part, as Geralt originally thought the girl at the manor was human until Nivellen told him about the dreams (as some vampires are mislabeled in the bestiary) Back to my point (also a tl;dr) I believe some vampires are truly higher in nature. We only know of Regis, Detlaff and the Unseen Elder- 3 of an entire race. Their true power limit remains to be seen in the Witcher world, so the idea that not all higher vampires have the “higher” form isn’t too far fetched. For all we know, they (Oriana and the doctor) could have been taking pity on Geralt for getting involved, using a “lesser” form instead of their higher.

[@WitcherGeorge]

The info I got regarding them being higher vampires in a classification sense is from the 'world of the witcher' book made by cdprojektred. Personally I believe they included that info in their own personal lore to make up for that mistake, but regardless it certainly adds more layers to vampires as a whole!

[@CMTechnica]

Nah, I'm pretty sure she's a Bruxa. You can see Geralt fighting her in the trailer for the expansion pack: we hear her sing and see her face before they get into a fight. Also, her hair is identical.

[@donwild50]

I really get confused with the whole "higher vampire/Higher Vampire." Perhaps the Higher Vampires such as Dettlaff and Regis begin as the generic "higher vampire" and evolve into true "Higher Vampires" with age. That might explain how it is mentioned in B&W that Higher Vampires don't all have identical powers. Some tend to gather covens, some have higher abilities to alter themselves into swarms of bats or birds...their attributes seem to vary. While Regis and Dettlaff have near equal strength, they don't react identically. The last fact regarding Orianna being a true "Higher Vampire" is that she knows of the existence and whereabouts of the Elder Vampire. While all vampires seem to know about him and defer to him, I doubt most would know his actual whereabouts. While Regis knows about the Elder, he tells Geralt that he must learn of his whereabouts from Orianna. Whether this infers that Regis doesn't know the Elder's exact whereabouts or that he is totally unwilling to share it is unclear. If Orianna is truly a Bruxa, she is beyond the normal Bruxae because she lives completely openly among the society of Toussaint. Indeed, she is a major figure in that society. The other Bruxae encountered in B&W are rather more hidden. They're out there as cloaked women...indeed walking the streets you run into them constantly. Hard to imagine the citizens of Toussaint seem quite ignorant of a group of creatures that literally infest their cities and the province as a whole, along with other forms of vampires. For a society steeped in fairy tale legends, it seems odd they know so little about the vampires.

[@WitcherGeorge]

Go forest style and stick some vamp claws onto your silver sword aha

[@viorelhelesteu1092]

The ones like Regis are called High Vampires that's the thing

[@HalfBreedMix]

IKR? It's not as hard as people seem to make it : Lesser

[@ddcarpenter1790]

I don't know about anybody else i consider vampire like Detlaff and Regus as Alpha or True High Vampires and Katakans/Bruxa as Beta or False High Vampires

[@theguyeverybodylikes9667]

Same, though i classify them as "greater" (regis and detlaff for example) or "lesser" (bruxae, katakans, etc) higher vampires

[@codycole2684]

Wouldn't it be Bruxae when talking about more than one

[@gautamdiwan5952]

Yeah

[@Nokard]

I will give the Witcher a run before cyberpunk 2077, I was giving it a go but got so far as to Ciri's escape from novigrad, that was 6 months ago so I have to start over again.

[@plsmorebrain9144]

Bruxa has the best Yelp rating in ln low class vamps Has kinda the same vibe as beeing the smartest special ED xD

[@howardhavardramberg333]

Please make a video lore on trolls thank you from Norway

[@phoenixplatinum2947]

Interesting, always thought vampires become higher the longer they live.

[@GutstheBlackSwordsmen]

I always wonder that if All the vampires unite and start a war against all humans will the witchers of the Witcher universe be able to defeat them(Or would they need more witchers to defeat em)

[@theguyeverybodylikes9667]

They would get trashed. The witchers, though powerfull, are few in number. The vampires would be able to overpower them with numbers, not to mention the "Greater" higher vampires (i.e. regis and detlaff for example) would be able to overpower a majority of the witchers.

Not gonna lie, re living the moments with Netflix series.

[@LiamRichardson-o7q]

Vampires are the greatest and most dangerous monsters in the entire world of the witcher. I wonder why so many vampires are drawn to tousaint is it the atmosphere or is it the concept of it being the wine country they associate the blood of the people there as their wine or maybe all those different types of wine in the blood give them a greater variety of tastes when feeding

[@factbeaglesarebest]

Regis is the man!

[@Weniger_Anzeigen]

"what should be looked out for is their breathtaking speed" I think at that point it might be a little bit too late to survive (if you´re not a witcher).

[@Bertti71]

Do a video on the silver sword aerondight

[@lisaowens5070]

I really loved the video. But why did they more or less do away with the Bruxas? I find them fascinating!

[@gautamdiwan5952]

At this pace you won't be able to complete witcher 3 goty before cyberpunk 2077 releases. Please do regular uploads

[@stevenpram4978]

Can you make lore about who is the first witcher? And what is the motive behind witcher creation in their universe.

[@jasonzaragoza9413]

Steven Pram no one knows who the first Witcher was, and witchers were created to kill monsters

[@galadrinihrinor4863]

I call these vampires such as the bruxa and katakans as greater vampires and the race as higher vampire

[@WillytheKing]

What song plays in the end ?
