Viki was a widowed royal family member[1] from a far-off land with the coat of arms of a zebra.

Biography[]

Around 1272, a coup was instigated in her kingdom and the royal family was overthrown. She and her son[2] boarded one of two ships set for Beauclair, where they were likely seeking asylum.

However, the usurper back home sent warriors after them and one of the ships wrecked on an island in Skellige, though luckily Viki and the young boy were on the other ship. The two made it as far as Ursten in Velen before their ship also crashed, stranding them in a foreign land and, to make matters worse, Viki couldn't speak any of the local language. They then took refuge in Widows' Grotto as Viki tried to figure out what to do next.

If Geralt finds them and protects them: while she couldn't understand the witcher, or he understand her, she was grateful nonetheless and, now that the last warrior that'd been following them was dead, she and the boy set out once more.

If Geralt finds them but stands aside: Viki met her end far from home as the warrior cut her down without a second thought.

  1. 1.0 1.1 It is implied that Viki is the widow of Valgridovt (after he dies in the Skellige ship crashing), by the Prima strategy guide referring to Widows' Grotto as "aptly-named", as well as all three people collectively being referred to as a family in the journal found at the shipwreck. However, their exact relation is never confirmed and the boy could be a brother, cousin, nephew, etc. to Valgridovt.
