The Nissir were Baron Lutz's of Tyffi's militia that were stationed near the border of Geso. The gang, referred to as "the minions of the law" by the baron, were known for raping women and killing cattle, which greatly contributed to the fear they inspired in Nilfgaardian citizens. The leader of the gang was Vercta.[1]
History[]
In July 1267, Baron Lutz ordered the Nissir to capture the Rats, another gang. In particular, they captured Kayleigh and were in the process of bringing him back to Tyffi to be punished for robbing one of Lutz's administrators. While stopping at the inn in Glyswen, they met up with Vercta's friend, Skomlik, the leader of the Trappers, and together they coordinated their respective gangs' efforts.
It was at this inn that Ciri, the Trapper's prisoner, helped Kayleigh escape by taking a knife from the innkeeper and cutting his bonds. Then Vercta's whole group and the Trappers were slaughtered by the Rats, who showed up to rescue Kayleigh.[1]
