      I believe Saskia is adopted. The green dragon that died-- was a dragon he loved, and he took care of her egg/baby. That's why Saskia doesn't have any golden scales.

      @@scoia-tael33 Perhaps; although it may be a trait of other dragons as well -- or maybe it just took her a while to learn the magic or power to do an appropriate form. I dunno. I feel like she's not being entirely candid with Geralt, or isn't fully aware herself.
      It seems like her father may not have explained everything to her either ... "it is the dragon's way".
      Also, it doesn't seem like it's genetic to me.. "Polymorphing, did you get that from him as well?" - "Just a hint of it. I can only assume one human form, he could turn into anyone he liked." ... maybe a learned skill, rather than innate.
      I am not sure that she knows that she isn't his biological offspring.

      You're wrong. The VA is portraying Geralt correctly -- Geralt doesn't show much outward emotion. Witchers being incapable of feeling emotion is a popular myth, and Geralt finds that myth useful when dealing with others, so he's adapted his personality to play to it (for example, Geralt knows it comforts villagers to believe he can't feel bloodlust/anger/hate, since being a mutant monster-slayer is frightening enough for them as it is).
      I thought the VA -- Doug Cockle -- overdid the emotionlessness in TW1, to the point that the performance actually did come off as amateur. But Doug gets the balance right in TW2 and TW3: _some_ emotion, subtle, but muted.
