8. Geralt - The Witcher

From two guys who, despite finding themselves in massively high stakes conflicts, are pretty regular dudes for the most part, we now have a guy who is anything but regular.

Geralt is a super powerful Witcher capable of taking down terrifying beasts, a Casanova who looks great in a bath, a stoic with a strong kind streak, and a man with what might be gaming’s weakest ankles.

Despite dying instantly to a six-foot drop, Geralt is the kind of hero who doesn’t need a suite of companions or a sidekick. No matter what manner of monster you find yourself up against, Geralt, with his dual swords, powerful magic, and tough attitude makes every battle feel surmountable.

And that’s a big call in the Continent, riddled with the most fearsome enemies your mind can conjure up and then some. If you looked up ‘badass’ in the dictionary you’d probably see this white-haired, cat-eyed boss. He also gets plenty of opportunities to flex his extraordinary depth, his deadpan humour, and his charisma which always hit the mark.

Couple that with his perfect voice and delivery, wit, and natural born talent for attracting the hottest women on the planet and Geralt is so easy to love embodying.
