Triss Merigold of Maribor is a legendary Temerian sorceress of the 13th century. Called Fourteenth of the Hill by her contemporaries because she was erroneously thought to have been killed during the Battle of Sodden Hill, she was later known as Merigold the Fearless. A member of King Foltest's royal council along with Fercart and Keira Metz, as well as a founding member of the Lodge of Sorceresses, she is involved in politics for most of her life.

She is friends with Yennefer and the witcher Geralt of Rivia. Triss took care of Ciri at Kaer Morhen for some time and is like an older sister to her. It was through her intervention that Ciri is not subjected to harmful hormone changes at Kaer Morhen, stripping her of her secondary gender traits.

She is a skilled healer and carries with her many magical potions, but she never uses them on herself because ironically, she is allergic to potions, and uses amulets to treat herself. She is also quite a powerful mage, certainly when it counts most. She wears an amulet - sapphire overlaid with silver.
