The Michelet brothers, Toublanc, Flavius, Rizzi and Lodovico, murderers for hire, first appear in Blood of Elves. They were hired by Rience to get rid of Geralt in Oxenfurt. Toublanc was the "brains" of the operation and de facto leader, while the other three brothers were more the "brawn", not to denigrate Toublanc's skills in that area, but of the four, he was the only one to have attended Temple school. All four died in their attempt to kill the witcher.
