The player controls Geralt of Rivia, who is one of the few remaining witchers – genetically enhanced and trained humans with special powers. The Witcher 2 features an extensive cast of vivid characters with developed personalities, which has often been cited by reviewers as one of its strengths.[1. The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings contains many different paths and storylines, along with multiple endings. Prologue. At the start of the game, Geralt is in prison under suspicion of assassinating the king of Temeria. After interrogating Geralt, commander Roche decides that Geralt is innocent and aids him in escaping the prison. The two, along with sorceress Triss Merigold, go in search of the kingslayer. Chapter 1. The trio arrive in the trading town of Flotsam and are ambushed by Iorveth, a rebel elf.
It appears to the group that a witcher believed to have assassinated the king of the neighboring country of Aedirn is in league with the rebels. Geralt saves two friends from being hanged in the city square. With the help of sorceress SГle de Tansarville, Geralt kills a kayran, a giant monster that is disrupting the town's trade routes. Geralt discovers that the true kingslayer, known as Letho, intends to betray Iorveth and convinces the elf of the truth. Roche arrives with an armed force. The player chooses between assisting Iorveth or Roche, thus setting the path of the second chapter.
After a duel with Geralt, Letho kidnaps Triss and forces her to teleport both of them to Aedirn. Chapter 2 (Iorveth)If Geralt assists Iorveth, the pair sail to upper Aedirn. There, they become embroiled in a rebel plot against King Henselt of neighboring Kaedwen, and they assist the rebel forces. Geralt completes three missions: formulating a poison antidote for rebel leader Saskia, determining Triss’s whereabouts (captured by spies from the empire of Nilfgaard and taken to Loc Muinne), and lifting a battlefield curse that is preventing the rebels from defending Vergen, the rebel's base of operations. The rebels defeat King Henselt’s army and Henselt is forced to acknowledge Saskia's terms. Geralt discovers Saskia is actually a dragon taking human form but she is under mind control by her advisor, the sorceress Philippa Eilhart. When Philippa teleports Saskia and herself to Loc Muinne, Geralt and Iorveth follow.
Chapter 2 (Roche)If Geralt assists Roche, Roche has Geralt assassinate the town’s commandant for spying for King Henselt of neighboring Kaedwen. Geralt and Roche sail to upper Aedirn. There, they become embroiled in a rebel plot against Henselt, and they assist the king. Geralt discovers an insurgency in the Kaedweni army: loyalists who are convinced Henselt is conspiring with the empire of Nilfgaard. Geralt completes three missions: determining Triss’s whereabouts (captured by a diplomatic delegation from Nilfgaard and taken to Loc Muinne), lifting a curse on King Henselt, and lifting a battlefield curse that is preventing the king from marching on the city of Vergen. Geralt defends Henselt from two witcher assassins and uses necromancy to discover they are in league with SГle de Tansarville, who has already fled to Loc Muinne with fellow sorceress Philippa Eilhart and entranced rebel leader Saskia in tow.
Geralt defeats Henselt's personal guard. Geralt either allows Roche to murder Henselt in revenge for his men (and causes a civil war in Kaedwen) or convinces him to spare the king. Chapter 3. Geralt arrives at Loc Muinne, with either Iorveth or Roche depending on whom he assisted previously. The mages have called a meeting to establish a new magical ruling body known as the Conclave, and all royal leaders are at Loc Muinne. Philippa Eilhart and SГle de Tansarville intend to use the meeting to establish their own power, with the still- entranced Saskia as leverage.
If Geralt arrives with Iorveth, he must choose between rescuing Triss or rescuing Philippa, who is the only person capable of lifting the spell from Saskia but who was captured and blinded by the king of Redania. If Geralt arrives with Roche, he must choose between rescuing Triss or rescuing the kidnapped Princess Anais of Temeria (who is sent for protection to King Radovid of Redania or back to Temeria). Depending on the choice the mage- royal meeting is interrupted when Nilfgaardian forces arrive with Letho, who reveals the sorceresses' entire plot, or if Triss is rescued – regardless of who Geralt assisted – the ambassador of Nilfgaard dies, the sorceresses’ plot is revealed, and either Roche is outlawed (and the rule of Temeria remains unsettled) or Iorveth is grievously wounded. Geralt chases down SГle, who attempts to use her megascope (a magical apparatus used to do a variety of magical operations) to escape. Unaware that one of the diamonds in the megascope is flawed, SГle becomes stuck in the megascope. Geralt can either remove the faulty diamond or do nothing, the latter of which kills SГle. Finally Geralt duels Saskia, after which he can kill her, let her live, or (if Phillipa was rescued earlier) break the spell over Saskia's mind.
Epilogue. If Triss was rescued, the Conclave is restored and the mages work to seal Loc Muinne. If Triss was not rescued, a bloody pogrom of magic users occurs in Loc Muinne and throughout the Northern Kingdoms. Geralt finally confronts Letho the kingslayer, who reveals a Nilfgaardian plot to destabilise the Northern Kingdoms. After hearing Letho's story, Geralt can either let him go or duel him to the death. Geralt then reunites with Triss and either Iorveth or Roche, and sets off south. A concurrent plot of the game is Geralt's attempts to recover lost memories from his previous life.
