BIOGRAPHY

Villentretenmerth is one of the very few known Golden Dragons in the entire history of the Continent. As he loves living amongst other creatures and is highly skilled in the art of polymorphism, he is able to assume many forms and travel incognito. One of his most well-known forms is that of Borch Three Jackdaws, an unassuming and soft-spoken knight, often accompanied by two Zerrikanian women, Téa and Véa. While traveling in this form, he never carries conventional weapons of any kind, saying that he could not, but never elaborating. He is the father of another famous dragon, Saesenthessis.

Not much is known about the early years of Villentretenmerth, but he has always been known for traveling all over the world and never staying in one place for too long. He uses various forms during these travels to seamlessly blend in, but he is also known to occasionally travel in his true form. On one such travel, he met a Green Dragon known as Myrgtabrakke, whom he took as his mate. After some time together, he left her and continued traveling.

THE BOUNDS OF REASON

Villen, under the guise of Borch, met the famous witcher Geralt during one of his contracts. The witcher slew a basilisk, and Borch, accompanied by his two Zerrikanian bodyguards, Téa and Véa, intervened before the folks who had hired the witcher could pilfer his bags. He invited Geralt back to a nearby inn, using the opportunity to question the witcher on his personal philosophy, and was pleased to learn Geralt didn't hunt dragons.

Not long after, it became known that there was a large dragon in Barefield and a great hunt was preparing, and the group decided to join the hunting party: the famous dragon hunters Crinfrid Reavers, Dwarven master Yarpen Zigrin with his company, noble knight Eyck of Denesle, and mages Dorregaray and Yennefer. The party was commanded by Prince Niedamir and guided by a peasant named Sheepbagger.

Borch immediately recognized the tension between the witcher and the sorceress Yennefer, but he kept that to himself, just like the real reason he wanted to join the hunt-- the dragon in question was none other than his mate, Myrgtabrakke.

Borch assumed the role of an observer and simply watched the events unfold and tensions build over the group's different ideas about the dragon. After a while, he abandoned the group to take care of his own business. In his absence, the group was caught by a rockslide, throwing the witcher and the sorceress off the cliff. They were eventually saved by Eyck, who threw them a rope.

After this, the group's situation grew worse as they began to constantly argue. During one such argument, however, they were interrupted by the loud roar of a dragon and, to their great surprise, it wasn't a green dragon that did it but a rather large, golden one. Though the group was in awe and could not believe their eyes at first, they eventually decided to continue on and kill the dragon.

Before they could begin the hunt, however, the dragon-- using telepathy-- gave them two options: leave, or stay and fight in a fair duel. This was a perfect chance for the honorable Sir Eyck, who did not hesitate for a moment and attacked the dragon. Villentretenmerth proved to be extremely agile for one of such size and quickly disposed of the knight, sending him and his horse flying across the valley.

The dragon's quick victory caused the prince to abandon the quest and the Reavers to change their plan regarding the killing - they now wanted to kill the dragon themselves. This caused the group to be divided into two - those who wanted to kill the dragon and those who wanted to prevent it. The latter group consisted only of Geralt, Dandelion, and Dorregaray, and were thus easily overpowered by the others, tied up, and left behind. Yennefer seemingly takes the side of the Reavers and Yarpen's company but she quickly turns on them only to be knocked off and have her hands and fingers bound as well.

Meanwhile, Villentretenmerth had observed all of this with rising impatience. When the Reavers and Yarpen finally attacked, the dragon was already charging and, though the hunting group made an impressive entrance into the fight, they were quickly defeated by the powerful beast. Eventually, it became clear what the dragon had been furiously guarding: his and Myrgtabrakke's newborn hatchling.

Soon after Villen defeated the attackers, the local militia lead by Sheepbagger arrived. By their sheer numbers, they were able to momentarily incapacitate the dragon. Fortunately for him, Yennefer managed to free herself thanks to Geralt and used her spells against the mob while the two Zerrikanian women appeared and cut their way through the crowd before eventually freeing Villen, who promptly took off and killed Sheepbagger.

After this, Villen ordered the dwarves to attend to the wounded Reavers and forbade Véa to attack Yennefer. When the fighting stopped, he assumed a human form again and revealed to all that he was actually the knight Borch Three Jackdaws. He then thanked Geralt and Yennefer for their help and made a rather cryptic comment about their relationship before changing back to his true form and flying off with his newborn.

LATER YEARS

He then spent many years raising his daughter, Saesenthessis. He taught her to care for others, to see them as equals, and to value freedom. After some time, Villen left her on her own as is common amongst dragons.

After the Second Northern War, Borch was seemingly "captured" by a mercenary unit that was paid to bring him to the Queen of Zerrikania. In one of the taverns, he told them a long tale about Queen Meve's deeds during the guerilla warfare.

Not much is known about him after this. Many years later, during the Kaedweni occupation of the Pontar Valley, Geralt met his daughter under the guise of Saskia.
