Imlerith

Imlerith is the one of the generals of Eredin's army. He wields great power and is one of the most formidable opponents Geralt encounters in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

When Ciri returned to the Continent, Imlerith ordered the Crones to keep an ear out for her. The witches took his order literally as they hung human ears throughout Crookback Bog. When Ciri later teleported to Crookback Bog, fell into the hands of the Crones and escaped, Imlerith pursued her on horseback but the girl managed to evade him.

Imlerith later participated in the battle of Kaer Morhen, his presence forcing Geralt's hunting party to retreat. Imlerith gave pursuit but the witchers managed to make it inside the keep and closed the main gate, to which Imlerith furiously pounded his mace against it.

The Hunt eventually broke into the heart of Kaer Morhen, freezing everyone but Ciri and Vesemir. Imlerith engaged the old witcher, enabling Eredin to get a hold of Ciri. Vesemir broke away and stopped Eredin from escaping with Ciri. Imlerith charged at Vesemir, wrapping his hands around his throat just as the witcher pushed Ciri away with Aard. He began strangling Vesemir but ceased at his king's command, to use Vesemir to force Ciri to surrender. Just as Ciri dropped her sword and the Hunt's victory seemed all but assured, Vesemir stabbed Imlerith with a knife. The attack didn't bother Imlerith, who proceeded to snap Vesemir's neck, killing him. This caused Ciri to unleash a magical scream that left the Hunt clutching their heads in pain. Imlerith quickly fled through a portal conjured by Caranthir.

A few weeks later, Imlerith attended the Sabbath in southern Velen, where he was confronted by Geralt. The elf then presumes to ask if Ciri was with him. If Geralt lies, Imlerith responds angrily. Either way, he engages Geralt in combat. By the end of the fight, Imlerith asks the witcher who taught him to fight as he did. Geralt declared it was the witcher he murdered (referencing Vesemir), before heating Imlerith's helmet with Igni, to which the elf sustained heavy burns to his head. As Imlerith took off his red-hot helmet, Geralt grabbed his mace and smashed his head with it.
