Voleth Meir, also known as the Deathless Mother, delivers on both fronts. Who is she? Where does she come from? Well, since monster-hunting witchers do intense research on their foes to know the best ways to defeat them, we’re doing that homework for you by providing everything you need to know about Voleth Meir, including her powers, origins and goals.ĭuring Netflix Geeked’s official The Witcher aftershow, The Witcher: Unlocked, showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich explained that she and the show’s writers wanted a season-long villain for Season 2 who could provide the show with plenty of action and create plots that would unite its huge cast. The biggest surprise of the adaptation so far came in Season 2 with the introduction of Voleth Meir, an entirely new character who serves as a terrible threat to The Witcher’s heroes. Yes, Netflix’s The Witcher is adapted from author Andrzej Sapkowski’s The Witcher book series, but even fans who have read all of his novels and short stories can’t really predict what’s going to happen on the show since many plots from the books have been altered or further fleshed out to work better on the screen. Major spoilers for Season 2 of The Witcher follow.
