I'm more interested in the age of Dandelion

He looks so youthful but he must be in his 40s by the time of Witcher 3

If Kaer Morhen was destroyed and immediately no more witchers were trained "because everyone was dead" then explain me this quote form Blood of Elves:

"She wanted to catch a glimpse of the little witcher once again - children had not been trained in Kaer Morhen for near to a quarter of a century. "

Nearly a quarter of a century is less than 25 years --> ~1240
Destruction of Kaer Morhen --> 50 years BEFORE ~1240

well ciri might have been trained, but she wasnt turned into a true witcher. likewise another witcher could have brought another kid and given him some training. like leo or diedre. but that doesnt mean that they can be turned into true 100% witchers

recently on polish foum someone refresh this topic: http://pl.thewitcher.com/forum/index.php?/topic/37032-smaczki-szczegoliki-tajemnice-czyli-rozmaitosci-wiedzminskiego-swiata/page__st__280

we can find there this quot from interview-book with Andrzej Sapkowski( i dont know why but quotation dont work for me now ):


Piotr Szczygielski: Ile (choćby w przybliżeniu) lat ma Geralt? Z naszego szacowania wynika, że około 45 lat...
AS: Ma (w chwili "Chrztu ognia") ponad pięćdziesiąt. Ale nie przyznaje się i nikomu nie powiedział, ile ponad. Wiedźmini starzeją się wolniej od zwykłych ludzi i mniej widocznie, niż zwykli ludzie. Wiedźminowi, który ma lat sześćdziesiąt, też nikt nie da więcej niż czterdzieści pięć. W świecie wiedźmina ludzie osiągają co prawda wyższą średnią wieku, niż w "naszym" średniowieczu, ale jednak i tu wahano by się zlecać mokrą robotę, walkę z potworami "dziadowi po pięćdziesiątce". Dlatego Geralt ukrywa wiek.

from this we know some facts : in "Baptism of fire" geralt was somnewhere above his 50 , so now he cant be older tahn 60-65 yo. PLEASE dont ever again try give him this ridiculous 100, andzej even say if witcher have for example 60 yo none give him more tahn 45:) so its not like im 100 im look 30 :)

Yes, as I remember calculating, he is about 60, which is rather old (physically) for ordinary humans during Middle Ages, but not for the witchers. But physical age does not really matter, for physically healthy people being old is a matter of psychology and attitude. California is full of people who are 60, but behave and feel as if they are 40 and younger, and I know some guys who are 30 but they feel and behave as if they are 60 already.
So don't you worry, Geralt is not going to be a grumpy grandpa, constantly complaining at back pain, bad weather, and that when he was young things were much better. And he still can fight and f*ck with the best of them :)

They've explicitly said he's over 100 in the games. Physically, to me he looks to be in his late 30's. Maybe early 40's.

If he is in his 50s in the saga - this according to the author himself - unless from the point it is referenced in the saga is 50 years, since it is 5 years from the end of the saga to the first game that is mathematically impossible according to the information we have.

To be precise, Andrzej said that Geralt is over 50, but he'll never tell how much over.
It makes a lot space for speculation...
But not 100 i'm sure, it's unbelievable.

Nenneke - Geralt, you're sick.
Geralt - Injured, you mean.
Nenneke - I know what I mean. There's something not quite right with you. I can sense that. After all, I have known you ever since you were a youngster. When I met you, you came up to my waist.

- Last Wish

I agree with previous posts, and I'm think that Geralt is about 70 years old in TW3.
And that's funny, that Geralt turned from melancholy and grumpy guy in last books, into a sex machine with poker face in first game. Like he was reborn and start learning everything again.
I also think, that with recovered memory, he get close to his image from the books. He even doesn't care anymore about his beard, so indifferent to himself now.

Not disagreeing with you, but how is it unbelievable? Vesemir could be anywhere from say a 150 to 300 years old.

Post in front of your with quote. That's the reason, Geralt can not be older than Nenneke.

Ah, apologies, I was thinking you meant it was impossible to reach that age.

Geralt is 106 during the events of the game. Triss is in her thirties. She's very young and still a bit naive. These values are based on info from books, not interviews.
Click to expand...
TRISS IN HER THIRTIES??? In 1273? So what, in Blood of Elves, and at Sodden Hill (1262) she was in her twenties, some sort of a sorceress prodigy? Yen tells that Triss was her friend, and already a sorceress, in The Last Wish (sometime after 1250, but definitely earlier that 1262). So, a teenager sorceress?
I mean c'mon, she may be a Playboy material, but let's get real here. She is in her fifties at least, does not matter what Flash said.

Flash works at CDPR guys, he's in contact with the writers, not us. The Reds rarely even come on these forums unless they have something definite to say.

there is also nice taliking about this in polish side. Our court specialist on the witcher lore Torpeda write this post(quotation still dont work) :






Problem z ustaleniem wieku Geralta wiąże się nierozerwalnie z problemem ataku na wiedźmińskie Siedliszcze i określeniem wieku Triss. Czy po ataku na Kaer Morhen tworzono i trenowano wiedźminów? Jak wiemy owy atak na Siedliszcze miał miejsce 50 lat przed narodzinami Triss, która mówi:

Ale ja, mała Ciri, nie uznaję zbiorowej odpowiedzialności, nie czuję potrzeby ekspiacji z tytułu wydarzenia, które miało miejsce pół wieku przed moim urodzeniem.

Jednocześnie jednak wspomniane jest, że Triss:

Wiedziała bowiem, że w Kaer Morhen nie trenowano dzieciaków od blisko ćwierć wieku.



Załóżmy, że Triss na początku Krwi Elfów ma 30 lat (traktowała ona Ciri jak młodszą siostrę)

jesień 1265 – Triss przybywa do Kaer Morhen

ok. 1240- przestano trenować dzieci w Kaer Morhen

1235 – narodziny Triss

1185 – w tym roku miałby miejsce atak na Kaer Morhen



Tym samym po ataku na Kaer Morhen na pewno trenowano dzieci na wiedźminów. Czas między napadem na Siedliszcze a zaprzestaniem trenowania dzieci to 55 lat. To by oznaczało, że tworzono (Próba Traw, Zmiany) nowych wiedźminów również po ataku na Kaer Morhen.

Jak wiemy Yennefer w sadze miała 94 lata. Moim zdaniem kapłanka Nenneke mogła co najwyżej dorównywać jej wiekiem (zapewne była od niej jednak o dobre kilkanaście lat młodsza), dlatego biorąc pod uwagę moje powyższe obliczenia, wypowiedź As-a, że Geralt Ma (w chwili "Chrztu ognia") ponad pięćdziesiąt oraz cytat przytoczony przez raisona:

raison d:
"- Geralt, ty jesteś chory.
- Ranny, chciałaś powiedzieć.
- Wiem, co chciałam powiedzieć. Coś jest z tobą nie tak, wyczuwam to. Przecież znam cię od takiego, o, wyrostka, gdy cię poznałam, sięgałeś mi do paska spódnicy." ›››


wychodzi na to, że Geralt przeszedł mutacje właśnie w tym okresie (po napadzie a przed zakończeniem trenowania nowych wiedźminów). Czyli jest po 50-tce.

Ale…

Modyfikacja dwóch niewiadomych: wieku Triss i Nenneke, poprzez dodanie obu panią lat spowodowałaby, że Geralt mógłby mieć około 100 lat. Nadal jednak Geralt musiałby przejść Próbę Traw i Zmiany po zniszczeniu Kaer Morhen

It's interesting though, how time runs on Isle of Avalanche. This can ruin any ideas, and Geralt really can be 100+ grandpa... He's like Odysseus from Homer's Odyssey. Spend 7 years on island of Ogygia even without understanding and feeling how much time has passed, where Calypso compelled him to remain as her lover.
