Sigismund Dijkstra

From Witcher Wiki

Sigismund Dijkstra is the head of Redanian Intelligence, or secret service. He is a physically imposing man; nearly seven feet tall and bald, with a rather noticeable stomach and is said to give the impression of a scrubbed pig. He also doesn't dress the least bit like a spy, preferring bright colours and flamboyant dress.

During the Second Nilfgaard War, King Vizimir of Redania was assassinated. During the interregnum, the country was ruled by a Regency Council headed by Dijkstra and Philippa Eilhart. This made him basically the most powerful man in the kingdom.

After the war with Nilfgaard, he was one of the negotiators of the peace treaty.

His personal assistant is Ori Reuven, who was known for his sniffing. His lover is Marie, the wife of the Redanian Minister of Finance.

At the end of Pani Jeziora (The Lady of the Lake) Boreas Mun meets a huge, seven foot tall traveler and an elf in the wilderness near the Elskerdeg Pass. The huge traveler introduces himself as Sigi Reuven, but he is arguably Dijkstra himself because he was forced to flee Redania after telling Philippa Eilhart that he was hot on the trail of the conspirators that killed king Vizimir. When an assassination attempt is made on his own life, "Sigi" realizes that he may have confided in the wrong person.
