He definitely went after all mages, but I'd say he had pretty good reason, and definitely wasn't necessarily "mad" for doing so. They didn't sell me on that at all: if mages #1 killed my father, #2 then mistreated and dominated me as a child, then #3 killed two kings and tried to kill a third (one of whom is possibly my father-in-law), #4 all apparently in coordination with the Emperor of Nilfgaard, who then lets loose a horrific invasion on the North, wherein I'm fighting for my lands and crown, and #5 I desperately need money... it makes perfect sense I would go after them. I couldn't trust them anyway, I appear to be next on their hit list, and hell - I need money. So... fire up the rack.

Besides, pogroms are pretty much par for the course in the North anyway, are they not? Now suddenly that makes him someone a madman?

And yes, he had Eilheart brutally blinded - but she killed his own father goddamnit! AND his (possible) father-in-law Foltest. AND is a traitor of the most egregious kind. AND humiliated him for years, being in charge of him as a tutor - all the while the murder of his father. AND may well be conspiring to murder him now (involved in a conspiracy who's apparent goal is to murder all Northern mponarch). AND may be in league with Nilfgaard.

In Medieval times they'd have her drawn and quartered. Blinding is nothing.

His order to have Geralt executed out of the blue is just absurd. The game favors the traitor and regicide Philippa Eilheart instead.. its ridiculous.
