Reynevan

Reinmar of Bielau ( _de. Reinmar von Bielau, _pl. Reinmar z Bielawy) called Reynevan, is a fictional character created by a Polish fantasy writer Andrzej Sapkowski. He is the main protagonist of the Hussite Trilogy, which comprises the following three volumes: Narrenturm (The Tower of Fools), Boży bojownicy (Warriors of God) and Lux perpetua (Ceaseless Light).

During his studies in Prague (Bohemia) Reynevan de Bielau learned medicine and wizardry and became a doctor and magician. He is also a herbalist, or a “herb doctor”, skilled in the harvesting and collection of medicinal plants. The action of the trilogy takes place in Silesia and Czech during Hussite Wars (1419 - 1437) and is centered around Reynevan's search for people who had murdered his brother - among them is Peter von Bielau, called Peterlin. Reynevan’s interests constantly put him into trouble and he is frequently attracted to women, which is the cause for even more distress. Among Reinmar’s peculiar companions are Szarlej and Samson Miodek, who are comparatively unlucky.

Reinmar is considerably different from Geralt, Sapkowski’s most popular character - unlike his predecessor he is very naive but also quite winning.
