Geralt has an extra helping of both, and so won his fight against his doppler doppelganger - and, after a moment of hesitation, killed him. True, the monster had noble motives for his deeds, but that did not make him any less dangerous.

The imp pestering the merchants of Novigrad turned out to be a doppler. These monsters usually avoid confrontation - to everyone's great relief, for when pinned they become extremely dangerous. Fighting them quickly turns into a fight against oneself. Or, to be precise, against a mirror image gifted with one's own strengths and abilities. In a conflict with such even odds, only luck - or destiny - decides the victor.

Really wanna see an angry witcher?

Do you?
