Walkthrough for The Witcher 3 Witcher Wannabe
For this quest to appear, you would need to complete the Contract: The Merry Widow first, and you must wait at least 5 in-game days to have passed for this quest to appear.
You will then see a note appear on the Notice board in Crow's Perch titled Witcher Wanted! You can pick up the note or read and it will start the quest and instruct you where to go.
Once the requirements are met, you can head over to Lindenvale near the notice board and hear the alderman mutter about there being another witcher in the area. Talk to him and find out that the supposed witcher took a contract for a monster and got his daughter pregnant. You can answer the dialogue however you like, and then he will point you in the direction of the cemetery to continue searching for the supposed witcher.
Once you reach the cemetery, you will find the impostor hiding from a single Ghoul. Kill the ghoul and go back to the graveyard where you'll see the wannabe, this impostor will then thank you for saving his life. Afterward, two villagers will come to the scene to check why the supposed witcher took so long to kill the monster. And when they see you, they will grow suspicious of the wannabe's legitimacy. You can choose to expose him or pretend that the contract took two witchers to accomplish.
If you decide to expose the wannabe, you will also have the choice to convince the villagers to let the wannabe go or to let the elder decide, in which case, the fraud will be killed. If you decide to cover for him, you can choose to make him work for the elder for a year or make him never return to the village again. Regardless of your choice, the quest will be concluded afterward, giving you 10 XP for finding the fraud and another 75 XP for completing the quest.
