Added DiffLines:

* CollateralDamage: How her eye got burnt; she entered the Dungeon of the Dead while still woefully untested in combat and got summarily overwhelmed by the monsters inside, which forced her adventuring partner to launch a fire spell to get the monsters off her that unfortunately dealt SplashDamage to her right eye. She does not begrudge her old friend over the incident, readily admits full fault for causing the situation in the first place, and has lived her life since then determined to be a more canny fighter and warn new rookies about the dangers of overconfidence.


Added DiffLines:

* IRegretNothing: After telling Goblin Slayer about how her eye was damaged, she professes that she has no true regrets for her days as a gung-ho novice; the only one hurt by her former recklessness was herself, and she has survived and recovered to become a woman of status and competence, passing her lessons on to younger adventurers.
* LeeroyJenkins: Admits to Goblin Slayer that she was this a few years back; so overconfident in her still-unmastered special martial arts that she insisted on tackling the Dungeon of the Dead before she was ready, which led to her getting overwhelmed by monsters and needing to be saved by her spellcaster adventuring partner, at the cost of getting a burnt eye from the spell that saved her life. The incident helped her get past this flaw, and cemented her valuation of teamwork.

* ProperTightsWithASkirt: The female guild uniform includes dark hose under a knee-length, slightly ruffled skirt, and Guild Girl has the professional yet slightly coquettish demeanor to go with the flattering outfit.


Added DiffLines:

* AloofDarkHairedGirl: She's a bit older and shorter-haired than most examples, but she fits with her stern attitude, position of authority, tall and strong physique, striking beauty, and chin-length curtain of black tresses.

* SempaiKohai: When first seen in ''Year One'' she has this dynamic with her Senior Coworker, with herself as the Kohai, being the just-arrived, newly minted desk jockey that's fresh out of training and barely able to keep her head on straight trying to keep up with her hectic workload, needing the savvy older woman on the cusp of being promoted and transferred to take some time to show her the ropes of keeping her head above water in this line of work.

* BadassInANiceSuit: She can tear her way through an entire goblin horde without a drop of gore or sweat marring her snappy tux.



* {{Bifauxnen}}: Is rather boyish in looks, but still considered quite fetching.

* BigDamnHeroes: Rushes in from out of nowhere in ''Year One'' chapter 65 to save the concussed Goblin Slayer from the jaws of a warg and finish off the goblin ambush party.

* BloodKnight: In chapter 66 of ''Year One'' she revels in tearing through the remainder of the goblin ambush, internally proclaiming with relish that charging headlong into danger and daring to court death by CriticalFailure is the essence of what adventuring should be.


Added DiffLines:

* MadeOfIndestructium: Her bladed chain was taken from inside the Dungeon of the Dead, and she claims it is stronger than mundane metal, a statement she backs up by wrapping her fists in its length and sundering a hobgoblin's solid steel club with a punch.

* GuestStarPartyMember: Her primary objection to Goblin Slayer’s promotion is his refusal to join a party, so her "exam" is for him to go on a quest with her and learn to function as part of a unit. In fact she gets downright snippy when he initially assumes they were on an EscortMission and tries to manage goblin encounters completely solo.

* TheLadysFavour: In volume 13, lacking an appropriate reward on hand for the impromptu rescue quest she has to make, she gifts Goblin Slayer her makeup bag to stand as down payment. She can't help but imagine such an intimate gift comes off more as a favor from a romance story, especially when he promises to replace anything that gets lost.

Added DiffLines:

* FlatEarthAtheist: DownplayedTrope; much like Heavy Warrior, she readily acknowledges the existence of the gods, and even the legitimacy of their authority and benevolence, but is not a devout follower of any {though she reveals a slight preference for the Valkyrie) and pays them token homage as a matter of proper manners (such as while saying grace.) She's just too busy to devote them more time, and assumes her life is too mundane for them to take much active interest in her regardless of her level of faith.


Added DiffLines:

* TheGadfly: She claims that her mock-dungeon has a reward of "10,000 gold coins and permanent mayorship of a frontier settlement... if we could afford that." The joke had the practical effect of relieving the tension of the adventurer-hopefuls and holding their attention, but mostly she got a kick out of the collective FaceFault.


Added DiffLines:

* OhCrap: Being shown that the ruins she set her mock-dungeon in had a hidden passageway that still had live monsters inside, and a rookie had just wandered in it, nearly causes her to have a FreakOut from worry that someone will get hurt for real and she will be imprisoned for dereliction of duty in assuring the dungeon was clear. It takes concerted effort for her compartmentalize the fear and focus on organizing rescue and containment efforts.


Added DiffLines:

* NoHeroToHisValet: As a Guild employee, she has watched the current generation of top-tier adventurers rise through their fumbling beginnings, near-death experiences, and ridiculous pratfalls, and is not taken in by their polished fronts now that they mostly know what they're doing. She is candid about this attitude to Priestess, hoping to remind the girl that the vets she is agonizing about not measuring up to are all also mortal and accident-prone.


Added DiffLines:

* IntrepidMerchant: Traveled for his business when he was younger, and ran Female Warrior's favorite equipment shop in Fortress City during the Demon Lord War in the time of ''Diakatana''.

* IcyBlueEyes: ''Year One'' color illustrations reveal her sharp eyes are an intense, almost electric blue.

** Once told Padfoot Waitress that Goblin Slayer ''might'' like stew (so she would make a lot to try to entice the adventurer in question and then ''he'' would get the inevitable leftovers when it didn't work), and told Priestess and Cow Girl the ChainmailBikini was made for enhanced mobility (and not the obvious [[RuleOfSexy actual]] reason).
** Averted in that he flatly admits to Priestess and Cow Girl that "enhanced mobility" is just what he's ''supposed'' to tell girls who question the ChainmailBikini.
