Odrin was a Kaedweni soldier in 1271 but preferred to spend his time drinking to the point he had a famous reputation for it and "having a good time."

Biography[]

Sometime after Kaedwen fell to Redania, he fled and ended up at one point near White Orchard in Temeria, where he briefly enlisted with the Nilfgaardians that were stationed there.[1] For two days he proceeded to drink and eat enough for several people before deserting and making his way to Velen. While he was at the Border Post for a time, he complained about not finding a single drop of alcohol[2] before eventually making his way further north into Novigrad and Redania.

Throughout the region he pulled off a number of shenanigans, from claiming he was an Oxenfurt Academy graduate,[3] staying at an inn without paying,[4] stealing mead in Novigrad,[5] or just being a terrible house guest.[6] Despite all this, he felt he was quite the lady's man and even put up a posting that he'd keep any woman company.[7] He could eventually be found passed out from drinking in Novigrad's Silverton district, near the harbors. By 1275, he'd even made his way to Toussaint[8] and tried to make money by leading people to see "immodest" displays of women.[9]

The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings[]

When Geralt first gets to the Kaedweni camp, he notices a trio of drunken soldiers who all seem to be searching for "Odrin". When he asks about this "Odrin", one soldier tells him simply, "you'll know him when you see him".

A while later, Geralt leaves the camp through the southwestern gate and wanders down to the beach below where he finds Odrin, passed out in front of a cave.

Journal entry[]

To say that Odrin was not shy about drinking is like saying that Iorveth was not shy about shooting humans. Such was his reputation as a drunkard that wherever moonshine could be smelt in Henselt's camp, one assumed that Odrin could not be far off.
A secret, or a full mug of beer – keeping one is easy enough. Keeping both is another matter altogether. During an alcohol-fueled conversation, the soldier provided much interesting information. Given his passion for drink, I was surprised that Odrin had managed to keep the secret for so long. His reputation as a mighty drinker was well deserved, but as a conspirator he was a flop.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt[]

Odrin is mentioned in numerous notice board postings in all regions where notice boards can be found (Blood and Wine expansion included). The man himself is found lying on a small dock in the Silverton district of Novigrad, where Odrin and his companions have set up a small business named "Odrin & Friends – Bottlemen". Next to Odrin is a merchant with hundreds of empty bottles for sale.
