Biography

Alonso Wiley was said to be a ruthless man with sadistic tendencies, and a lack of scruples – all traits that allowed him to be a relatively successful gangster and "rule" districts in Novigrad. He was the owner of many prestigious casinos, fighting rings and brothels in the city. However, Alonso was also a patron of the arts, as evidenced by the fact that he bequeathed the Rosemary and Thyme, one of his brothels, to the bard Dandelion.^[1]

Alonso was later assassinated by men under orders from his own son Cyprian, while he was en route to a poetry recital.^[2] Upon his death, all of Alonso's property and holdings were passed down to his son except for the Rosemary and Thyme establishment, which was given to Dandelion.
