History Characters / GoblinSlayerAdventurersGuildMembers

* AnguishedDeclarationOfLove: {{Invoked}}, during Volume 12, Apprentice Cleric's InsecureLoveInterest feelings come to a head when Harefolk Hunter joins their party and she starts berating her looks (keep in mind, Apprentice Cleric is very pretty and well-developed physically) but Rookie Warrior stops her telling her how beautiful and important she is to him. So pretty much as close to a LoveConfession as the two have gotten.

* ArcherArchetype: In keeping with the "elvish archers" staple, Elf Acolyte wields as crossbow.

** When the goblins stripped the rather busty Fighter in her {{FanDisservice}} gang-rape scene, it was shown that she didn't wear any bra to cover and support her breasts.
** [[{{BigBreastPride}} The buxom]] Wizard also revealed to not wear any bra under her [[{{ImpossiblyLowNeckline}} strapless gown]] after two goblins stripped her and about to sexually assault her while she was lying dead unconscious.

** Unlike the Greenhorn Team, the two of them take Guild Girl's advice and try to clear the sewers from giant rats first, which prove to be a formidable challenge already. When they run into trouble, they turn to the advice of more experienced adventurers for help, allowing them to slowly but steadily improve as adventurers (eventually getting them promoted to Obsidian-rank). One example of this is Apprentice Cleric bringing an antidote for Rookie Warrior to take in case he was exposed to infected rat blood, showing they listened to advice and warnings about dealing with giant rats. The Greenhorn Team meanwhile did nothing to research goblin behaviors before setting out, [[spoiler:which sealed Wizard's fate as no one brought antidotes with them to immediately treat her, and it was far too late to save her by the time Goblin Slayer arrives]].

* TenMinuteRetirement: The epilogue chapter of Volume 4 has Guild Girl reveal that she has recovered from her experience enough to go back on duty after scant weeks of recovery, being the one to deliver the basket of corn the villagers sent Goblin Slayer as a token of gratitude.
--> Guild Girl let her eyes drift to the corn with an expression that bespoke relief. It was rare that adventurers or mercenaries found themselves with a second chance when they had failed once.

** During ''Year One'', Spearman is already so skilled and powerful that his accomplishments are leagues ahead of the fellow two adventurers that started out the same day as him. All what Goblin Slayer does is killing goblins and even ''he'' struggles multiple times, and Young Warrior is so average that the monsters he fails to kill end up getting killed by Spearman instead. He's been assigned more important missions because of his achievements, such as looking for the Golden Fleece that's been heard from legends. Even his equipment is much better than theirs, as once he's promoted to Steel-rank, he switches to a magic spear which further boosts his battle power.

* {{Deuteragonist}}: In the first volume of ''Year One''; he registers as an adventurer the same day as Goblin Slayer, attempts to partner with and befriend him multiple times, his participation in the rock eater hunt and desire for revenge against it parallel Goblin Slayer's crusade, and he ends the story making peace with himself as Goblin Slayer affirms his purpose. Later light novels give him [[ThirdLineSomeWaiting only perfunctory check-ins as he learns to cope with his loss and retry as a party leader]], but the manga adaptation [[AdaptationExpansion increases the scope and detail of his adventures]] enough to keep him qualifying as this.

* {{Fireballs}}: She admits its one of her favorite spells.

* HeroicSeductress: Her character can be interpreted as an examination of the trope (though not quite a deconstruction). When Spearman [[ObliviousToLove obliviously wins her heart]] with his honesty, she mutters about not being an easy woman. Though she's definitely mastered sex appeal and is quite knowledgeable about carnal activities, her [[CrushBlush awkwardness]] around Spearman during the prequel novels betrays [[SmittenTeenageGirl she's nowhere confident]] as she pretends and lacks ''practical'' experience.

** Though she presents herself as implacable temptress, Witch has secret chinks in her armor of allure. She's unable to [[ClingyJealousGirl hide her feelings]] when it comes to Spearman, and will blush if he does something she considers romantic. Female Knight and Priestess discover she snores loudly when sleeping. Spearman mentions that strenuous physical activity [[DCupDistress quickly tires her out]] and [[NoodleIncident she doesn't like]] slime monsters.

* TheEveryman: Young Warrior is a very average adventurer, who lacks the talents or strengths of other adventurers like Spearman, Heavy Warrior or even Martial Artist. He's not particularly knowledgable, and his equipment is just average gear. His original motivation for adventuring is also the same as many others': the quest for fame and glory. After being humbled by encountering and fighting a rock eater, Young Warrior has given up of making himself a rising star and is primarily motivated to survive the day and continue living for tomorrow. He assigns himself as the Misfit Party's tank, showing that he's not doing it for the glory anymore.

** He is essentially what the Greenhorn Party's Warrior could have become if he actually was willing to listen to other people's advice and got to live on to learn from his mistakes. Young Warrior actually understands what his limitations are, KnowWhenToFoldThem, and try to improve himself. Unfortunately, Greenhorn Party's Warrior was killed because of his overconfidence and never got the chance to undergo his own CharacterDevelopment. The similarities becomes more apparent when Young Warrior gains a new partner in the form of Martial Artist, who is an obvious foil to Fighter.

He's not particularly knowledgable, and his equipment is just average gear. His original motivation for adventuring is also the same as many others': the quest for fame and glory.

He assigns himself as the Misfit Party's tank, showing that he's not doing it for the glory anymore.

* StandardizedLeader: Young Warrior's CharacterDevelopment is mainly about growing from an unexperienced rookie leader to a mature leader who is willing to learn more. He's not shown developing special skills as an adventurer and he lacks the raw power or fighting power some of his fellow adventurers would develop. In the main story, he's not shown to have risen to rank of Silver unlike several of his fellow veterans like Goblin Slayer, Spearman or Heavy Warrior, the latter being also a leader-type character.

** {{Averted}} however, it goes beyond a case of mistaken identity or a FrameUp, he simply fit a discription of the "kidnapper with a greatsword" which the Guild admitted "Greatsword" users were a dime a dozen. Really he was simply accused because Centaur Waitress's sister thought he was getting "graby" with her sister, ignoring the two were friendly, and effectively "Me Too-ed" him with absolutely ''no evidence'' to support her accusations which the Guild dropped almost instantly.

* DiagonalCut: Bisects a greater demon at the end of Volume 10 by ducking under a spear lunge and hacking through both its weapon and its torso with on swipe.

** To Witch. Both being the female silvered-ranked adventurers that are seen as the CoolBigSis to the younger adventurers of the guild, and have [[SubordinateExcuse feelings for their male partners in their parties]]. Differences include Knight being a melee fighter that wears concealing light clothing, while Witch is a LadyOfBlackMagic that wears revealing dark clothing. Knight was initially the rudest silvered-ranked adventurer to Goblin Slayer, while Witch was one of the friendliest to him at the start of the story. Witch is the guild's TeamMom that helps out others while asking little in return and freely gives out friendly life advice to others, while Knight is OnlyInItForTheMoney and finds herself asking love advice from Goblin Slayer, of all people.

* LikeAnOldMarriedCouple: She and Heavy Warrior argue and get on each others' nerves insessently both before and after hooking up, moreso her for always throwing her weight around and causing a scene when eating out.

* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Even more-so than some other prominent adventurers -- She's outright horrified upon learning the goblin champion she and Heavy Warrior took down paid no more than that of a goblin grunt, and mopes about the earnings afterwards.

* SlobsVersusSnobs: The Snob to Goblin Slayer's indifferent Slob; she's probably the most well-appointed adventurer in the frontier town, and the most prominent of the side characters who look down on Goblin Slayer expressly for his shabby gear, an attitude she maintains even after participating in the farm battle and having him help with her relationship issues at the harvest festival, though admittedly with much less genuine scorn. The fact that Goblin Slayer looks like a BlackKnight, while she has most the traditional KnightInShiningArmor look among the silver-rank adventurers, is likely done the emphasize this.

* WeightWoe: Druid Girl is accultured to humans enough to be self-concious of her eating habits.

* IronButtmonkey: The duo often seems to be running into bad luck and have gone through a few {{Broke Episode}}s. However, considering what usually [[CruelAndUnusualDeath happens]] to newbie adventurers in this series, they are doing far better than the average Porcelain-ranked adventurers mainly because they listen to the advice of Experts.

* OhNoNotAgain: The two of them react with incredulous exasperation when Ice Witch summons a swarm of giant rodents during the climactic battle of the mission they thought was their big break out of rat-patrol.

** When suffering financial destitution, the pair will secretly put the other's well-being before their own. Rookie Warrior will tell Apprentice Cleric he's found cheaper sleeping accommodations elsewhere, but actually sleeping in a stable or on the streets, so she can recuperate in costly lodging with bed and bathing. This is so she doesn't get ill from fatigue or poor hygiene. Apprentice Cleric will show up early to a scheduled breakfast so she can tell Rookie Warrior she's already eaten, but actually giving her entire meal. This is so he receives more calories to avoid starvation and maintain his weight.

** While hiding out from a Wyvern, Club Fighter cannot help but stare like a love struck fool at Supreme God's Cleric when she only wrapped in a towel and remembers that he accidently saw her naked once. He even admits he gets the occasional "impure thought" about her but tries to keep things professional.

* SwordAndSorcerer: Have this dynamic, or at least attempt it; he's got no real weapons-training, she's the most limited spellcaster in the entire series. But somehow they make it work.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: In Episode 1 of the anime, the two were accompanied by a another girl; blonde with twin tails and a white cloak. It's unknown if she was a friend, a former Party member, or someone they had to escort as she's never seen or mentioned again; even her face was never revealed.

* ExhaustedEyeBags: Rookie Warrior displays these a lot in the morning after his and Apprentice Cleric's last failed attempt at rat patrol, due to having to sleep the night before in the stable. The noisy, stinky, straw-pile-for-a-bed stable
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Insensitive as Rookie Warrior was, his heart was in the right place when he and Apprentice Cleric invited Priestess into their party..

* DueToTheDead: When the [[FallenHero Chaos Marine]] is destroyed and it's Giant Eye master is slain, Heavy Warrior stretches out the body and lays its sword at its side, to restore its former glory in the rest of death.

* PrivateMilitaryContractors: Heavy Warrior signed on with a mercenary company alongside his childhood friend. He retired after his buddy got crippled for a goodly while before becoming an adventurer.

* YoungerThanTheyLook: Like all the human silver-ranked adventurers of the guild, its implied that he is actually around the same age as Goblin Slayer, as the first volume of ''Year One'' states that he was a 15-16 teenager during that time. However, his rugged, muscular physique in both the prequel story and main story make him look much older than his actual age.

* AmazonianBeauty: DependingOnTheArtist. Some [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/female_knight_sample_art.jpg supplementary art]] shows that she is fairly muscular underneath her armor, as to be excepted of someone who specializes in physical combat.

* ElvesVsDwarves: Dwarf Scout and Elf Acolyte leap on each others throats if left alone, and delight in the other getting chewed out by the rest of the party until its their turn.

*** Professor come from the capital WizardingSchool, but is an old dog-man teacher who behaves with magnanimity. Young Warrior even states that the Professor would be able to handle a situation better than [[CallForward "some mage who'll fire off a spell the moment things get squirrely"]].

*** Professor is a frail and curmudgeonly future vision of the conciliatory and surprising strong Monk.

* TeethClenchedTeamwork: Elf Acolyte and Dwarf Scout are constantly jeering at, smacking around, and getting in the way of each other's efforts, and display ill-will beyond the typical even for elves and dwarves that take exception to each other's species.

* GoodLuckCharm: Turns a special chunk of Black Onyx she found in a "practice dungeon" (really a ''real'' dungeon) into a pendent for herself.

* MissingMom: Her mom is nowhere to be found and she comments she dosn't even really remember what she looks like.

* HeadTurningBeauty: Her SupermodelStrut is so alluring can have soldiers stop to gawk at her in the middle of a battle. It's implied that while she is naturally attractive, there is some {{Glamour}} at work that makes people extra distracted.

* BeardedLady: Female dwarves are stated to be able to grow beards in this setting, though Dwarf Scout is too young to do so when introduced.
* BigBeautifulWoman: Big is not really the right word because of how short she is since she is a dwarf, Dwarf Scout is noticeably pudgy unlike other female characters, but her face is drawn as cute as them. Her pudgy body shape comes from her race.
