== Biography ==
=== Early Life ===
Carter was born in 1250 to David and Iona Nelson . He has an older brother named Shawn Nelson. His father was Count of Asheberg, making Carter's childhood better than some others. He was friends with most the children in the town and his best friend's name was Kaelan. Carter and Kaelan had known each other since birth and were both the same age. In early 1260, tragedy struck the town when a werewolf raided the town and killed a lot of Towns Folk. When Carter was on the run home he saw the werewolf on the way to his best friend Kaelan. When Carter saw this he ran to a corpse and took the dead man's ax and he ran towards the werewolf to save his friend . However, out of nowhere, Carter flew backwards and when he looked up all he could see was someone fighting the werewolf and killing it.
Carter saw the man with two swords coming towards him and when he saw his outside he realized that he was a Witcher. The man helped him up and told Carter that he was brave but also stupid to run into a werewolf with a blunt steel axe. Some People gathered in the Town Square, David spoke to the Witcher and explained to him that he was grateful and they will pay him for his service. The Witcher said that he didn't want gold but a Child to take back to train him to become a Witcher. 
No one offered their child until Carter saw that Kaelan was planning to step forward. When Carter saw this he quickly went forward and offered himself to the Witcher, saying that his family's job is to take care of the Town and if it helps the Town he will leave. His family refused him at first, but they realized that there was little other choice. They asked the Witcher one more day with their son and the Witcher granted it. After the family had spent their day, Carter promised them that he would return. Carter said goodbye to everyone and set off with the Witcher, who introduced himself to him as Varen of Oxenfurt, to the Dyn Marv Caravan where the Witchers of the School of the Cat are Trained.
=== Witcher Training ===
Carter was subjected to the Trial of The Grasses. He managed to survive the many blistering mutations required to grant Witchers their abilities. After that spent several years under the rigorous training of the Cat School, Carter honed his skills in swordsmanship, alchemy, and the mystical arts. His strength, endurance, and resolve were tested. However, Carter persevered, driven by a fierce determination to prove himself and to vanquish the monsters that plagued the land. 
However, his mentor Varen increasingly turned away from the other Witchers of the Cat School as more and more pf them accepted contracts that did not follow the code that Varen had set himself. In early 1264 Varen had a dispute with another witcher, Varen left the Dyn Marv Caravan with Carter. That winter, Varen and Carter went to Kaer Morhen to pass the winter. Varen was one of the only Witchers from the Cat School who had access to Kaer Morhen and was even good friends with Vesemir. Once they arrived in Kaer Morhen, Carter met a few of the Witchers of the Wolf School including Eskel, Lambert, Vesemir,Geralt and a student named Leo. He also met a Witcher from the Griffin School named Coën and a Girl named Ciri who was close to his age. 
Carter, Leo and Ciri quickly became friends and trained together even though Carter was stronger than both of them because he was the only mutant. Since then, Carter has been training in the Cat school ways, Wolf schools way and a bit the Griffin schools way til Coën left. Later that year Carter met the sorceress Triss. Everyone who met Carter liked him and he was a very cheerful person despite his heavy training. Carter sang a lot and although the other Witchers made fun of him from time to time, he could sing very well. 
In the year 1265 Carter and Ciri become even closer and they lost their virginity to each other. They were too young to understand that they had fallen in love so they remained friends but continued their bedtime adventures. When the others in Kaer Morhen found out about the relationship between Carter and Ciri, Carter was given even tougher training and he was treated more harshly. They all liked him though and Carter understood why he was treated like that and accepted it and learned from it and thought it could only make him stronger. But Carter and Ciri stil didn't stop there until Ciri left Kaer Morhen in 1266 for other reasons. Carter wanted to follow them but was forbidden and had to continue his training. 
later that same year, Varen and Carter left Kaer Morhen to get things for Carter's trials and when they arrived at a village they were stopped by the village elder and he asked them for help with a monster. Varen initially refused because he didn't want to go monster hunting with Carter. However, he was persuaded by the village elder and he and Carter set off to hunt the monster. They followed the trail until it ended and Varen told Carter to climb a tree. As Carter did this, a Fiend came rushing in and fought against Varen. The fight went on for some time until the Fiend noticed Carter and turned his attention to him and charged towards him. Varen followed and dropped his guard to quickly get to Carter and was surprised by the Fiend and pierced with the Fiend's antlers. Carter could see it clearly because it was happening right below him and without thinking much he jumped on the Fiend while Varen threw his silver sword to him and Carter pierced the Fiend's neck with it. 
When the fight was over and the Fiend was dead, Carter wanted to help his mentor, but Varen knew he was dying. He told Carter that he was not to blame and that he had done well. He also told him that his goal was to free the cat school from its bad reputation and that Carter should continue on the path he was taught and that the reputation of the cat school will automatically be saved if he does so. After Varen had told Carter everything he wanted to tell him, he asked Carter to end his suffering. Carter followed Varen's wish and freed him from his pain. Carter burned his mentor Varen on a Pyres and kept his medallion.
He then took all the ingredients from the Fiend and made his way back to the village elder to collect his payment. The village elder found it hard to believe that a 16 year old boy had killed a monster. Carter made his way back to Kaer Morhen and met Vesimir there and told him everything that had happened. After some time of preparation, Carter went through the Witcher School Trials of the Cat and the Wolf. Carter wanted this because he had trained at both schools, so Vesimir helped him.
=== Begin of the Path ===
After a while on the road, Carter took on his first official contract for a mysterious monster in Redania, which had made its home in an abandoned building, feeding on the vagrants inside until it had grown bold and attacked a merchant caravan. It turned out to be a particularly tough fight for a first contract. After some preliminary investigation, Carter was able to identify the monster as a wyvern based on its clawed footprints and the examination of its victims. Carter found a survivor named Achill who told the Witcher about the building's owner, a wealthy Redanian who served as the Representative for the Merchant's Guild by the name of Phillip Orseb telling war refugees about the building and offering to let them stay there for what little money they had on them. 
Carter discovered his employer was the cause of the wyvern growing bold, as the man knew about the wyvern but was unconcerned as long as it fed on the refugees who occasionally inhabited the building, seeing it as a way to cull the unwanted refugee population after taking what little money they had and later collecting their remaining possessions. The Witcher took some damage having been struck twice by the wyvern's tail barb but did some damage to the beast himself before it fled through a hole in the wall, Carter tracked the beast to its nest he then waited until it tried to sleep off its wounds. 
He successfully crept up on it and finished it off by cutting off its head. Carter rode back to his employer to turn in his claim. Carter named his price for a thousand crowns, which Phillip balked at. The Witcher ended up using a mix of blackmail and intellect to reason the Representative into not only paying him, but also to never commit such atrocities again. Phillip wrote Carter a promissory note for Vivaldi's bank in Novigrad for 1,000 crowns and went back to his guild in good standing. Carter ended up burying the two refugees that had died, and Achill the survivor who Carter had paid for his medical treatment, thanked the Witcher for burying his fellow refugees. Carter had a brief and awkward conversation with Achill, who looked forward to hearing stories about the Witcher Carter of Asheberg to tell his children one day. With that, the two men departed as friends. 
Carter then left, heading out once more for The Path. He kept busy for a few weeks making ends meet: handling smaller contracts like nekkers and ghoul nests, breaking small-time curses, helping alchemists obtain ingredients, and such, before he got an interesting-sounding contract.
In June 1267, Carter accepted a contract in Kovir from the Royal Thyssen Family. When he arrived at the palace at Pont Vanis, he met Triss Merigold who immediately hugged him and introduced Carter to the Thyssen family. Carter quickly noticed that something was wrong with the family's son, Tancred Thyssen. Carter spoke to Triss first, and she explained to him that she had been hired to help Tancred because he had been grieving for months in his dark room, and he cut off one of his fingers. However, Triss couldn't help him, neither with his sleep problems nor with his general mood, so she suggested hiring a Witcher if it was a monster or a curse. Carter asked her if she knew anything about his past, and she explained that, as a youth, he fell in with bad company, most notably the Baron Surcratasse, Lady de Lisemore, and the Redanian ambassador's wife in Kovir and Poviss and that probably thanks to the intervention promised by the sorceress Sheala de Tancarville, he straightened out and resumed his studies. Carter continues to question Tancred's family; however, he doesn't find out anything new 
Carter then went into Tancred's room and talked to him, and during the conversation, Carter suspected that it was a Hym and was able to confirm this when he turned on a light with Agni and saw the shadow of the Specter. Without telling Tancred what Carter knew, he went back to Triss and explained to her that they needed to find out the cause of Tancred's guilt and find the Lair of the Hym. Triss had an idea and said that Lady de Lisemore was executed a few years ago for her betrayal of the crown, and that the reason was Tancred's betrayal when he turned away his bad influences. She further said that Lady de Lisemore's property has been empty since then. 
Carter then made his way to Lady de Lisemore's estate and was able to find that the Lair of the Hym was in the basement of the estate, and in the house he also found a love letter from Tancred to Lady de Lisemore. With this information, Carter went back to Triss and explained to her what options they had to free Tancred from the Hym. The two options were either to outwit the Hym, but Carter never heard anyone do it, or to survive a night in the Hym's lair. Carter decided to spend the night in the lair and prepared for it while Triss explained to the family what was going to happen and that there was a risk that Tancred would die. 
Carter rested to be ready for the long fight, and when he woke up, he made his way to the mansion with Tancred and explained to Tancred everything he needed to know but nothing more. As Carter prepared everything in the mansion, the fight began. After a long night of fighting, Carter was successful and was able to defeat the Hym and free Tancred from him. Tancred survived, and together they went back to the palace in the morning. On the way back, Tancred thanked Carter again and again. 
When he returned to the palace, the whole family thanked him and rewarded him generously. They offered Carter a room in the palace where he could rest. Carter accepted the offer and made his way to the room, where he was intercepted by Triss who complimented him on a job well done. She then invited Carter to accompany her to the Grand Mage's Assembly in a few weeks, where he could make contacts and probably see Ciri again. Carter accepted and spent the weeks before the assembly in the Thyssen family palace, where he and one of the daughters, Heloiza Thyssen, became closer and the two had sex regularly in the weeks until Carter had to say goodbye to everyone and was then picked up by Triss so that the two of them could go to the assembly. Heloiza Thyssen was sad that Carter had to leave because she had developed feelings for him, but she didn't tell him that. 
=== Thanedd coup ===
On June 30th 1267, Carter traveled to Thanedd Island with Triss to attend the Grand Mage's Assembly between the Chapter and Council of the Brotherhood of Sorcerers. At the evening banquet, Triss introduced him to many people, among the most important were Philippa Eilhart, Keira Metz, Sabrina Glevissig, Tissaia de Vries, Vilgefortz and Sigismund Dijkstra. He also met Geralt and Ciri, who introduced him to Yennefer. He spent most of the rest of the evening with Ciri. During a dance, Ciri told Carter that he should come to her room that evening. After the dance, when everyone went to their rooms and Carter had spent a little time in his room, he made his way to Ciri's room and the two had sex.
In the early hours of the morning,Carter awoke and didn't find triss next to him. Carter and Ciri awoke in the early hours of the morning to the sounds of fighting; the Northern allied mages were arresting the others secretly allied with Nilfgaard. Yennefer guided them through the palace. After they arrived in Garstang, in a trance, confirmed the truth behind the attack in Dol Angra, where Demavend had attempted to incite a war against Nilfgaard. However, as it'd been a technical attack against the Empire, Emhyr's troops answered back and began to push into Aedirn and Lyria. She then further revealed that King Vizimir II had been assassinated during the night. 
Following her recovery, a fight broke out in Garstang, Carter protected Ciri and killed anyone who came near her and told Yennefer to get Ciri out of there so Yennefer and Ciri were forced to flee. During the fight Carter killed Fercart of Cidaris. After a band of Scoia'tael broke in and started firing their bows, the massacre became worse and when the Scoia'tael also attacked Carter, he defended himself and fought against them. He killed many of them even the Commander Casemde and during the battle he impressed many magicians with his magic and sword skills, but after Triss was injured. He helped her flee from the fight and they eventually found a heavily wounded Geralt, Carter tried carrying him away from the conflict until they ran into Tissaia, who teleported the three away from the invading Redanian soldiers. 
They were transported to Brokilon, where Geralt was received by the dryads. While Triss recovered, Carter became closer to the dryad Aglaïs and the two had a fling until Triss recovered and the two returned to Thanedd., where they found a frightened Dandelion and they explained what had happened, what the political implications were, and of his location healing in Brokilon. Carter then accompanied Dandelion back to Brokilon. When they arrived they updated Geralt of the events of the war, and so the three decided to travel to Brugge, where the bard had heard rumours mentioning the girl. Before leaving though, after 36 days in the forest, Geralt saw Milva who told him of the news of Ciri being in Nilfgaard (not knowing that it was a false Cirilla), and that the emperor may be planning to marry her. Upon hearing this, the witchers decided to head for Nilfgaard.
=== Traveling south ===
Carter, Geralt and Dandelion began their journey south following the Ribbon river to the Ceann Treise falls, where they planned their march to Verden, and then further onto Cintra along the Yaruga. As they set off and a heavy storm hit, the witchers and Dandelion came across two havekars and a group of Nilfgaardian soldiers. As fighting broke out between the latter two groups, with Carter, Geralt and Dandelion caught in the middle, she began to fire arrows, helping to take out their attackers. Afterwards, they opened the coffin on one of the wagons to find Cahir, a knight that Geralt spared once but threatened to kill if he ever saw him again. However, Geralt refused to kill him in his tied up state and, with an army approaching, the four took off, leaving Cahir a knife to free himself.
Realizing Milva couldn't convince the witchers to give up going south, she agreed to lead them there, but only through a safer route going east first. Their trip though wasn't without its incidents. Several days after Milva joined the group, they discovered the one following them was Cahir. However, the knight refused to fight the witchers, stating he wanted to join them, but the witchers refused to let him go with them but didn't want to cut down an unarmed opponent, putting them in a stalemate. Only when Milva suggested she could put an arrow in the knight's horse, preventing him from following, did he run off and the group continued. Despite this, it turned out Milva's threat had no bearing as she would have refused to kill a creature that hadn't done anything wrong.
A short time later the four soon came across Zoltan's company and, on learning they couldn't go south from there as originally planned, joined the dwarf and his group to go further east. Later, they came across a suspicious farm that still had a cow out in the open, when most would hide them for fear of being attacked. However, they quickly learned why: the people that lived there had come down with smallpox, but one girl was immune and thus stayed. Just as the group decided to carry on though, another group approached and, not heeding the girl's warning, attacked. As they carted the girl off into the barn, Carter joined the rest to attack the bandits, killing a lot of them. However, Milva didn't aim quite right with her bow on the last one and merely injured the sole soldier that got away, but they quickly heard him being killed off by Cahir, making Milva question Geralt once more if he truly believed the Nilfgaardian was his enemy.
Eventually, they came across Fen Carn, an ancient elven cemetery, and bumped into Regis. After an initially tense introduction, they joined him at his small cottage and Carter helped partake in drinking his mandrake moonshine. The next day, Carter was still suffering from a hangover as they marched on to a refugee camp on the Chotla. However, they hadn't even left the cemetery when they bumped into some peasants from the camp who demanded that Milva hand over her black horse, incorrectly believing that black horses could sniff out where a vampire's grave was. Despite Carter, Geralt and Regis trying to defuse the situation peacefully, things took a turn for the worse when one of the peasants insulted Milva, stating her place was in a kitchen and she wasn't much use for anything else. Already furious, Milva proceeded to punch the man several times, sending him tripping backwards and hitting his head on a stone, knocking him out, before Milva vomited nearby. Zoltan then revealed to Carter, Regis and Geralt that it wasn't the first time she vomited, though he believed it was from the hooch earlier, and the last time from some mushrooms they had scrounged up.
=== On the Chotla ===
The group, now with the peasants in tow, made their way to the camp. On reaching it, the women and children in the group suddenly left them, having found some of their relatives in the camp, not bothering to thank the group for getting them there. However, one of the young girls ran back over and thanked the group, she gave Carter a hug. As the group fed their horses, they were approached by the earlier peasants, this time demanding "blood money" for Cloggy, the man Milva hit, despite him being alive. As they then tried to push for them to give up their horses as the group didn't have any money, they still refused and so decided to take up matters with the elder, Hector Laabs, and made their way to him. However, the elder was in the middle of watching a supposed priest condemning a mentally challenged woman of being a witch and in cahoots with a supposed vampire in the area. Seeing that the woman was innocent and an obvious scapegoat, Carter, Geralt, Zoltan, and Milva all stepped up to do a trial of ordeal in their chosen skills, but the priest demanded instead that to prove theirs and the woman's innocence they must remove one of the hot horseshoes from the fire and hand it over to him while not bearing any burn marks themselves. Before one of them could act, Regis stepped forward, grabbed a horseshoe out of the fire, and calmly walked over, revealing no burn marks. Before much else could be done though, an alarm sounded that Nilfgaardian troops were approaching and everyone ran off.
Milva, knowing peasants were going to try and steal their horses in the chaos, took off for them but was too late to get to them before they were taken. Not giving up, she ran after them and soon found Dandelion's horse, Pegasus, whose inexperienced rider couldn't make the lazy horse gallop. On seeing her approach, the peasant abandoned his attempts and ran off and Milva expertly got the horse to gallop, soon catching up with the peasants who'd stolen the other horses as this time Geralt's horse, Roach, was sulking and refusing to move. She quickly kicked Cloggy but was soon overwhelmed by the other thieves still standing up. However, before they could land more than a few blows on her, suddenly the attackers were crying out, shying away and Milva saw that Cahir had appeared and was striking the thieves. The two quickly dispatched the rest and after an initially tense moment they worked together to round up the rest of the group's horses.
Waiting for nightfall before they attempted to find the others, Milva and Cahir talked, with the knight filling her in on how he ended up in the coffin earlier. While she still didn't quite understand the animosity Carter and Geralt had for Cahir, she informed Cahir that where Ciri was concerned, the witchers were highly protective and grew angry about the men that took her. Cahir then informed Milva that the witchers were headed the wrong way as Ciri wasn't in Nilfgaard. Once night fell, the two then went to investigate the refugee camp but saw there were no fires at all, indicating they were all gone. Regis suddenly appeared and explained they needed to move and quickly, as Carter, Geralt and Dandelion were in trouble, leading them to Fort Armeria. However, instead of having Milva and Cahir sneak in, Regis told them he'd take care of releasing them and for the two to wait at a certain spot for the witchers and bard.
At the designated spot, Milva and Cahir continued to discuss Ciri when they heard a battle break out at the fort between the Temerian Army and Nilfgaardian troops. A short time later Carter, Geralt appeared with a hurt Dandelion and Regis appeared to address the wounds. However, as soon as Regis mentioned the smell of the bard's blood, Milva saw Carter and Geralt suddenly pull a sword out on Regis, but the latter completely ignored this as he bandaged up the wounds. Once done though, he then calmly stood up, telling the witchers to go ahead and kill him. Milva complained, stating Regis had saved the woman's life back in the camp and saved all of them as well until Geralt told them they didn't know what he was and Milva realized Regis didn't cast a shadow, revealing that he was a vampire. However, Carter and Geralt let him go but told him not to show his face again. After the vampire left, Carter and Geralt then turned to Cahir but Milva, fed up with everything, told off the witchers and that Cahir had saved her life and helped get the horses back and she refused to continue with the witchers if they forced Cahir to leave. Carter put his blade away first and Geralt did the same a few seconds later. The new group then rode off.
=== Geralt's company ===
As they rode, Milva informed Carter and Geralt about Cahir's story before they set up a camp to rest. As Geralt was sulking and giving no directions, Carter, Milva and Dandelion began to scrounge for food when Geralt tried to tell them he'd go it alone the rest of the trip. However, the three paid no heed to this and with Regis' help (who'd re-appeared to change Dandelion's bandages) and Cahir's, the group soon made a filling soup for the group. Afterwards, they discussed their next step in finding Ciri and decided to head to Caed Dhu, a druids' circle. 
As they traveled through Angren, at one point Milva pulled Regis aside, revealing what he already knew: she was pregnant. She then asked him to make a potion that'd help abort the fetus, even though it'd mean she couldn't ride in a saddle for 10 days afterwards. While she went off to be alone for awhile, Regis informed the rest of the party and Carter and Geralt went to talk to her about it. However, instead of trying to change her mind, they just talked about the situation, with Milva revealing how it came to be, that she didn't even know the names of the possible fathers, and they were likely dead, as almost none of the elves had survived the attack. She then revealed she was absolutely terrified of being a mother, feeling she had no skills or useful background to be one as she hunted and killed for a living. As Carter and Geralt talked about their own past feelings when it came to losing things that were special to them, Milva then decided she'd keep the baby.
Not realizing Carter and Geralt had changed plans to try and reached the other side of the Yaruga then cross back to not put Milva in danger by crossing Ysgith, the group found a hidden ferryboat and used it to travel on the river but soon found themselves literally in the middle of a fight between Lyrian guerrillas, led by their queen, Meve, and Nilfgaardian troops, with both looking to take control of a bridge that connected the two banks. Carter once again showed his skills in a figght, to the point the Nilfgaardians backed away from the bank but the group was soon overtaken by crossbow bolts and Milva was hit in the process. Unfortunately, the injury caused her to miscarry and while she physically recovered just fine, she barely spoke for awhile, upset over losing the fetus. Then out of the blue a week later, she cut her hair short and proclaimed she was done mourning, returning back to her normal self. 
=== South of the Yaruga ===
The group, having now crossed the Yaruga, were then joined by Angoulême, a young criminal who had informed them Nightingale and his gang, along with a half-elf, were planning to kill Geralt in the next town of Belhaven. However, Geralt, falsely believing a traitor was among them to have given such detailed information to the gang, outright accused Cahir and the two began to tussle before Milva, fed up with their behavior, began to strike both of them with her leather belt to get them to stop Carter stopped the fight and was able to separate everyone.A couple days later, Geralt apologized to everyone, explaining he'd jumped to conclusions and didn't take into account that a mage could have scanned them and got the information that way. With that, the group then split into two, with Carter, Geralt, Angoulême, and Cahir towards Belhaven and Milva, Regis, and Dandelion to the Sansretour valley, near Toussaint, to try and find the druids. During their trip, Carter and Angoulême had a Sexual Relationship.
However, instead of going to Belhaven, where two of them would be immediately recognized by either Nightingale's gang or their informants, Angoulême instead led them to one of the mines, as she recognized the odd red material on the half-elf's boots when she had seen him as from the local mines. At the first one she spoke with a friend, Golan Drozdeck, but the dwarf wasn't forthcoming of information until Geralt threatened him, and he revealed the half-elf had been at the Rialto mine.
The group headed there to learn more but instead ran into a group from Nightingale's gang that ultimately led to the four fighting and killing the 5 gang members easily one of them was the Second-in-Command Phirt. Impressed, a half-elf appeared and used the guise that the four had said they'd killed Geralt earlier to have them come in to talk about the reward. Instead, the half-elf, now revealed as Schirrú, took them by surprise, having immediately recognized the witcher and was soon joined by Nightingale, more of his gang, and a band of corrupt Nilfgaardian soldiers. Just as things looked dire for the four, freedom fighters of the Slopes disrupted the mine and starting fighting the soldiers, giving the four time to escape on horseback.
However, Cahir, who'd nearly been scalped by a thrown hatchet, couldn't even stay up in the saddle and Geralt's horse, having pushed to gallop for too long, was near death, all the while knowing their pursuers weren't far behind. After a quick decision, Geralt ordered Angoulême to race to the other half of the company near Toussaint as they needed to know immediately about Schirrú and Nightingale while Carter, Geralt and Cahir would hide in the woods and make their way once Cahir was better. With that, she raced to Toussaint, with the half-elf and the gang following after her, not realizing they'd bypassed Carter and Geralt in the woods. Luckily, Angoulême reached the other half of the company in time and explained to Regis what'd happened.
Regis set out to find Carter, Geralt and Cahir while Angoulême, Milva, and Dandelion took refuge with the druids in Caed Myrkvid, with the belief that the Nilfgaardian soldiers wouldn't dare cross over the border due to jurisdiction. They soon learned though that wasn't the case with this group and everyone in the forest found themselves under attack. The three took refuge in a house in the forest with some pilgrims. When Carter and Geralt arrived to help, Milva rushed out, taking out the rest of the bandits before she, the witchers, and Angoulême made their way deeper into the sacred forest to find the bandit leaders, but were instead caught by a tree creature that was capturing everyone that ventured in and was none too gentle, breaking several of Milva's ribs. They were only released when the druid's flaminika, Regis' friend, recognized them and let them go.
by October the group reached Toussaint and Dandelion, having been a former paramour of Duchess Anna Henrietta, soon rekindled their relationship and decided he was going to stay in Beauclair. Their mission was also jeopardized by Fringilla Vigo, a visiting sorceress and the duchess' cousin, who took a liking to Geralt to keep him in Toussaint until May under the Lodge of Sorceresses' orders, as they had their own plans laid out for Ciri. Meanwhile, Carter started a Sexual Relationship with Margarita Laux-Antille For him it was nothing more than sex and he communicated openly, but after a few weeks Margarita wanted more than just sex. But it remained a strictly sexual relationship. This worked until early January, when it became clear that Geralt still loved Yennefer, Carter still loved Ciri and, on overhearing a conversation, learned exactly where Vilgefortz's hideout was. In a last ditch effort, Fringilla and Margarita wooed the witchers one last time before they left, getting Geralt to reveal the location. However, having not trusted the sorceress, Geralt actually gave her a false location before leaving Toussaint with his company, sans Dandelion. This really hurt Margarita Laux-Antille as she had developed true feelings for Carter, but they still liked each other.
The company, riding through a blizzard in the various mountain passes, eventually made their way to Stygga Castle in Ebbing and began their assault. 
=== Assault on Stygga castle ===
A short time before they actually did arrive, Ciri herself arrived at the castle to free Yennefer and face her destiny. This proved to unintentionally aid Geralt's assault as Vilgefortz and his close allies were too focused on Ciri that they left only a handful of guards at the gates. Combined with Regis' vampire abilities, Carter together with Geralt's company made easy work of entering the castle, killing most of the guards who didn't run except Boreas Mun, who showed them how to reach Ciri before they quickly left the area.
Later in the battle, things degenerated into chaotic skirmishes and chases through the castle's labyrinth of hallways. The team split up with Carter, Geralt, Cahir, Angoulême, and Milva taking a more conventional approach and Regis using his shapeshifting to facilitate a bit of reconnaissance.
Regis managed to find Ciri in the lab and made quick work of Vilgefortz's assistants. In doing so, he broke his long abstinence from drinking blood. Ciri then insisted that he return to Carter and Geralt and warned them about Vilgefortz while she set off to find Yennefer. Meanwhile, Carter , Geralt and the rest of the team were set upon by crossbowmen and pinned down. They ultimately made it through, but Angoulême was wounded and Milva was killed, though not without decimating the crossbowmen. At that point, Geralt set off in one direction to find either Ciri or Yennefer, Carter did the same and Cahir and Angoulême set off on another way.
The castle guard also split up, with Leo Bonhart setting off alone to find and kill Ciri. Stefan Skellen found most of his men ready to run from the hopeless ordeal. Realizing that their small group didn't have a chance of winning against two witchers in combat, he gathered his men and blocked the only exit from the castle, the main hall where a large staircase descended.
Carter met Vilgefortz and the two fought. At first Vilgefortz didn't take him seriously, but over time he realized that Carter was stronger than he had believed. However, Carter was still outmatched and was repeatedly injured during the fight, but he always fought back. The fight lasted for a while and Carter had difficulty continuing to fight due to his injuries and Vilgefortz began to play with him. However, that gave Carter another boost so that he fought back again with full force and was even able to injure Vilgefortz, but he was also hit and fell to the ground. However, the fight was then interrupted by Geralt and Yennefer and they took over the fight while Carter lay on the ground due to his injuries.
Vilgefortz did not seem to be particularly stressed by their combined assault as he hurled fireball after fireball at them and gained the upper hand, where he had a chance to strike and kill Yennefer. However, at this opportune moment Regis arrived on the scene, providing enough distraction for Geralt and Yennefer to gather themselves, but Vilgefortz managed to kill Regis in the process. The battle then continued with the witcher, the sorceress, and the mage, with Vilgefortz again looking like he would win. Yennefer was seriously wounded and it came down to just the witcher and the mage. Vilgefortz materialized an iron rod to fight Geralt and dominated the witcher in terms of swordplay and maneuvering, wounding Geralt blow after blow. As Vilgefortz prepared for the final strike, Geralt managed to cast a high level illusion using Fringilla Vigo's medallion, causing Vilgefortz to miss his swing. Geralt, seizing this opportunity, slashed the surprised mage across the chest and then beheaded Vilgefortz as he fell to his knees.
Ciri managed to find and reunite with her adoptive parents and her seriously injured lover. The four set to get outside of the castle. As they slowly made their way to the only exit, they encountered the remains of Skellen's men and were forced to fight their way down the main staircase. Side by side, Ciri, Geralt and Carter proceeded to kill everyone in their way, with Ciri managing to deflect a bolt with her sword, though Geralt warned her afterwards to not do that again.
Emhyr var Emreis, who found out from Dijkstra's letter where Vilgefortz was hiding, decided to attack the castle without further delay to recover his daughter, although all his armies were in the North, either fighting or occupying conquered regions. Therefore, he took his own personal Impera Brigade to attack the place. However, they arrived near the end of Geralt's assault, coming to the entrance just as Geralt, Carter, Yennefer, and Ciri were fighting the remains of Skellen's men at the main staircase.
Realizing they were extremely outnumbered now, Skellen's men surrendered without a fight. Stefan Skellen was accused of treason by Emhyr var Emreis himself and arrested along with his men. Emhyr then took Geralt aside for a long private conversation. At that point, Geralt let Emhyr know that he had figured out that he was in fact Duny, Ciri's father.
However, these victories came at a great price. Nearly all the witcher's companions died in battle, with Milva mortally wounded by an arrow, Angoulême died from a lance wound to the leg, Cahir was killed by Bonhart, and Regis was melted by Vilgefortz. The only survivors were Geralt, Carter, Ciri, and Yennefer.
Meanwhile, Emhyr revealed in private to Geralt he planned to take Ciri and impregnate her himself to fulfill the prophecy and his destiny, to which Geralt expressed his disgust. As the truth of this couldn't get out, everyone who knew the whole story couldn't be allowed to live, namely Geralt, Carter and Yennefer. The emperor then gave his assurances that he would never hurt Ciri and as Emhyr respected the three and appreciated all that they'd done for Ciri, he would allow them to commit suicide by slitting their wrists in a warm bath. He also allowed Geralt, Carter and Yennefer to say their goodbyes to a shocked and confused Ciri.
Geralt and Yennefer grudgingly agreed but Carter refused and drew Steel but Yennefer convinces him to let it go and then Carter was then Arrested to wait his turn to go in the bath chamber and after saying goodbye, Geralt and Yennefer entered the heavily guarded bath chamber. Emhyr assured them that they could take as long as they wanted to, and that only once they were ready, they could call in his guards who would give them knives to complete the act. Before he left, Yennefer made him promise that he would never make "her daughter" cry.
As a goodbye, Ciri gave Carter a long kiss and when she was in fact on her way out she lost her composure and began sobbing about the loss of her foster parents and her lover. Realizing that he had just broken his promise to Yennefer, the Emperor decided to let them go. Without any more fanfare, he left with his brigade and returned to Nilfgaard. Afterwards Ciri kissed Carter again out of joy and they then heard Geralt and Yennefer calling for the guards so Carter and Ciri opened the door and explained to them what had happened.
The four then gathered all of theire dead companions and buried them outside the castle.
Ciri wanted Carter to be taken to Brokilon but Carter objected because he wanted to stay with them. A discussion broke out between Ciri and Carter. Ciri didn't want Carter to get hurt anymore because of her and Carter wanted to stay with Ciri and be there for her. The conversation became very emotional for both of them until Ciri, in order to protect Carter, told him out of nowhere that the two can never be together because their fates are different. Carter was struck by this and walked away from her without saying anything. Ciri and Yennefer wanted to stop him because they actually wanted to take him to Brokilon with a teleporter, but Geralt stopped them and Yenn and Geralt then took care of the crying Ciri. 
Carter set off with his horse back north. He had problems staying in the saddle because of his injury. Shortly before Toussaint he could no longer hold himself in the saddle and fell from his horse and became unconscious on the ground. When he woke up again, he laid in a bed and realized that he was in some kind of Castle. When the door to the room opened, Fringilla Vigo came in and the two talked about what had happened. Carter only explained the basics and left out the argument with Ciri and Fringilla explained to him that he was found by a group of guards. Carter thanked her and was looked after by her. During this time the two became closer and when Carter was feeling better, the two had sex. Carter used it to ease his pain from Ciri, but it only helped in the moment. This went on until Fringilla had to go to a Lodge meeting.
When Carter wanted to say goodbye to the Duchess of Toussaint, she asked him to do a task for her. After making sure he got paid, he got more information. It was a Kikimore that he had to kill. After Carter accepted the assignment and completed it after a hard fight, he returned to the duchess. He got paid and to his surprise she invited him for a glass of wine. He accepted and spent the evening with her. When the two were already a little drunk, they started kissing and this ended in sex. After Carter woke up and Anna Henrietta lying in bed next to him, he packed his things and headed north without saying anything because he remembered that Anna Henrietta wanted to hang up Dandelion a few days ago because he was sleeping with another woman while Dandelion was Anna's lover. Luckily, Geralt and Ciri, who were passing through, were able to prevent this. That was just before Carter arrived.
=== Battle of Brenna ===
March 1268, Carter arrived at a Northern Kingdoms military camp. Where he was recognized and stopped by Coën. The two walked through the camp as they talked and where Coën tried to convince Carter to fight in the upcoming battle. Carter initially refused and the two agreed to go out for a drink. They did, and that's when Carter met Shani. The three talked for a long time while Shani became more and more interested in Carter. During the conversation, Carter learned that his brother Shawn is in the camp and will lead men into battle the next day. Shani and Coën then led Carter to his brother. Shortly before Carter went into his brother's tent, Shani told him to come back later to the campfire where they had spent the day. 
When Carter went into the tent and saw his brother, Shawn was surprised to see his Carter again after so many years but was still happy. They talked for a while about their lives over the last few years until they had told each other most of it and then talked about the next day. Shawn explained to Carter that they have far fewer soldiers but will hold the line, but he still asked Carter for help. Carter agreed and said he would stay for the battle but no longer. Shawn was happy and took Carter to King Foltest's tent and introduced Carter to him. Carter agreed and said he would stay for the battle but no longer. Shawn was happy and took Carter to King Foltest's tent and introduced Carter to him. Foltest wanted to offer Carter a reward for helping, but he refused because he had his own reasons for helping. When Carter left the tent he said goodbye to Shawn after he gave him instructions for the next day. 
Carter made his way to the campfire where Shani and Coën were waiting for him and he informed them both that he would be in the battle tomorrow. Coën was happy and set off for his tent. Using the excuse that Carter doesn't have a tent, Shani invited Carter to her small tent where the two spent the night together and had sex.
In the morning, Carter said goodbye to Shani and prepared for battle. Carter was supposed to fight with the Free Company and did so. When the battle began, Carter showed how helpful he was by being able to locate and kill the commander of the Ard Feainn Division Ramon Tyrconnel after killing several soldiers. However, they were surrounded during the battle and had to fight their way out and with the help of the dwarves and Carter they managed to do so and in the process Carter saved the life of Duran Kaldar by killing the lieutenant general and commander of the 3rd Nilfgaardian Army Rhetz de Mellis-Stoke. 
After the battle was won, Carter returned to camp where he waited for his brother and his friend Coën. However, he saw a seriously injured Coën being carried into the medical tent. Carter follows and could only see Coën dying on Shani's operating table. Carter comforted Shani and asked to be allowed to bury the body and after the situation had calmed down, Shani and Carter made their way to a hill to bury Coën on a burial pyer. 
When Carter arrived back at camp with Shani, Carter made his way to his brother's tent where he hugged him with joy and thanked him. When the two had spoken a bit and wanted to say goodbye, a messenger came who ordered Carter to report to King Foltest in the tent. When Carter arrived at the tent with Shani and his brother, he was thanked by King Foltest and knighted by him for his actions and courage in battle. Foltest offered him a place in his personal guard, but Carter declined and thanked the king. 
Since the battle, Carter was also known as the Hero of Brenna and a War Hero of the Second Northern War. When Carter left the tent and said goodbye to his brother and Shani and got on his horse, he was greeted and stopped by Duran Kaldar stopped. Duran thanked him for saving his life and gave him some gold and after the two had talked to each other for a while, they said goodbye to each other. Then Carter left the camp and went to find new work in Ellander. 
=== Family Time ===
When he arrived in Ellander, Carter made his way to the tavern to look for work. He stayed there for a few days and waited for someone who wanted to hire him. Shortly before Carter decided to travel further, Triss Merigold came to his table in the tavern and the two greeted each other like old friends. She told him that she heard about the Battle of Brenna and that a certain Witcher was an important part of the battle. Carter told her more about the battle and despite Triss complimenting him, he said he only did it because of his brother. Carter noticed that Triss was flirting more than usual during the conversation. He then said that he had decided to return to his family in Asheberg because he had not seen them since he left with Varen as a child and he had promised them that he would return. Triss offered to take him there quickly and Carter accepted the offer. The two traveled together through a portal just outside Asheberg. 
On the way to the castle where Carter's family lived, Carter was recognized by a few people and greeted warmly. Among them was Carter's former best friend Kaelan, with whom Carter talked for some time until he excused himself and went to the castle. His family was already waiting for him there and his mother threw herself at Carter and didn't let him go at first. He was showered with compliments from his parents about how tall he had grown, what a handsome man he had become, and the stories they had heard about him and his deeds. After they were done with Carter, they started showering Triss with compliments, assuming that Carter and Triss were dating. However, instead of correcting her, Triss just thanked Carter's parents, who quickly led the two to their room. There, Carter's parents said Carter will find clothes and he can leave his armor and swords in the room. They also said that Carter and Triss should rest after the trip and that they would be picked up for dinner later. 
Carter, who was a bit overwhelmed by the whole thing, and agreed. He went into the room with Triss and sat on his old bed while Triss laughed. She joked about the thought that they were a couple, but she always had a flirtatious undertone. Carter asked why she didn't correct his parents and Triss asked him the same question back. Carter said he was overwhelmed by the situation and Triss said she found it amusing. She walked up to Carter and said to Carter in a flirtatious tone that she didn't want to disappoint his parents now and then she kissed him. He just grinned and said that she was right and that he didn't want to disappoint his parents now. During the weeks that Carter spent with his parents, Triss and Carter really behaved like a couple. They kissed, held hands, slept in the same bed and had sex almost every night. However, it was clear to Carter that they were not a real couple but were just pretending. At the same time, Carter also had a sexual relationship with his childhood crush Jenny of Asheberg, the daughter of his father's advisor. He even had Triss and Jenny at the same time every now and then so each knew about the other. When Carter announced his departure, he told his parents that he was trying to spend the winter in Asheberg. Carter got ready to leave and also said goodbye to Triss. The two had never talked about their relationship, whether it was real or not, whether they had feelings for each other or not, the two said goodbye with a kiss and went their separate ways and Carter knew that it was just a good distraction for him to forget about Ciri for a while. 
=== Back to the Path ===
On the path, Carter quickly realized that the sexual relationship he had had over the last few months helped him to forget about Ciri for those short moments, but every time he was alone he was sad and thought about Ciri. He even started drinking more than was good for him in taverns. Carter spent the first few weeks on small contracts, but they still served him as experience until Carter received a contract from a troubled nobleman residing in the bustling city of Daevon, who seeks the Witcher's expertise in dealing with a mysterious creature that has been preying upon the city's elite. Rumors abound of a seductive succubus luring unsuspecting nobles to their doom with promises of forbidden pleasures. 
As Carter investigates, he uncovers a trail of shattered hearts and vanished nobility, each victim falling prey to the alluring charms of the succubus. Armed with his knowledge of monster lore and the keen instincts of a Witcher, Carter sets out to confront the creature before it claims more lives. Following the succubus' trail, Carter navigated the labyrinthine streets of Daevon, where danger lurks in every shadow and temptation beckons from every corner. Along the way, he encounters desperate lovers seeking answers, each with their own tale of woe and betrayal.
As Carter drew closer to his quarry, he discovered that the succubus was not acting alone—a powerful mage has ensnared her in a web of dark magic, using her seductive powers to further his own twisted agenda. With each encounter, Geralt unravels the mage's machinations, determined to put an end to his reign of terror. In a climactic showdown within the mage's hidden lair, Carter faces off against both the succubus and her malevolent master, wielding his silver sword and the power of his signs against their dark magic. With each strike and incantation, he weakens their hold on the city, unraveling the curse that binds them to this realm.
As the mage's magic dissipates and the succubus' charms falter, Carter delivers the Final blow to the mage and freeing the Succubus named Iska of his speel. With the curse broken, the city of Daevon is once again safe from the seductive temptations of the succubus, its citizens free to live without fear of falling prey to her dark influence. The Succubus Iska thanked Carter and the two had Sex but Carter told her to leave the Area. Returning to the nobleman who sought his aid, Carter delivers news of his victory and the succubus' defeat. Though grateful for his heroism, the nobleman's thoughts turn to the fragility of human desire and the dangers of succumbing to temptation. On his last mission of the year before returning to his parents, Carter killed a vampire in a village and as a reward, Carter didn't ask for gold and was then invited by Women named Narias to her house for lodging and something to eat. Carter accepted and also slept with her. After that Carter decided not to ask for gold more often but to ask for food and shelter because that was all he needed. After that Night he returned Home to Asheberg.
=== Winter in Asheberg ===
When Carter arrived in Asheberg he was overwhelmed with questions about where Triss was. So Carter explained to his parents what relationship Carter really had with Triss. Carter spent the winter spending a lot of time in the Asheberg tavern and continued his fling with Jenny during the winter. When half of the winter was over, Carter's parents had a small party. The bard Callonetta, or her real name Priscilla, appeared there and found the currently drunk witcher Carter very interesting. However, Carter ended the evening in his bed with Jenny and a lady named Serina Menas, who was a daughter of a noble merchant. The next morning, however, Carter found an invitation from Priscilla to her performance in the tavern that evening. Carter was interested and went to the tavern the next evening to see Priscilla perform.
