TheWitcherstar, who is set to appear in anew movie calledEnola Holmes, is featured in this latest DLC forTotal Waras a High Elf Loremaster going simply by the name Cavill. The character is a Loremaster of Hoeth with the ‘White Wolf’ ability, granting Cavill a +15 bonus against large types and granting the potion of toughness ability.
Cavill (the actor, not the High Elf) has been riding high lately, having starred in the surprise hit of this past winter over on Netflix.The Witchercaptivated audiences, drawing in fans of the immensely popularWitchervideo game series, those who had read the books by Andrzej Sapkowski, and a host of new folks as well. Whilethe premiere of the second seasonof the show is a little up in the air right now, the wait should be worth it.
The extra time waiting for moreWitchergives fans time to speculate about justwhat may be included in season 2.
