Regis
A higher vampire who does not drink blood, and a member of Geralt's party.
Emiel Regis Rohellec Terzieff-Godefroy, known as Regis, is a higher vampire and a member of Geralt's party in The Witcher novels. He joins the party after rescuing Geralt and Dandelion. Unlike other vampires, Regis does not drink blood, despite an addiction to it when he was younger, and he can withstand full daylight.
Lore & Background
Regis is fond of correcting others about their knowledge of vampires and enjoys intellectual and cultural conversations with the other members of the group. He is very powerful and resistant to both physical damage and temperature, and can regenerate even if cut into pieces. During the assault on Stygga, Vilgefortz seriously wounds Yennefer and Geralt and literally melts Regis before Geralt kills him.
