----
* TheAlcoholic: She not only loves booze, she has such a high tolerance that she can drink just about anyone under the table. In the web-novel, she and Kehma get into a drinking contest and it's a draw, with him having [Poison Resistance] at level 3.
* ApronMatron: Runs the inn and bar.
* DidYouJustHaveSex: Chapter 7 of the manga leaves it ambiguous as to whether she and Kehma actually had sex or not, as there was a great deal of drinking involved and Kehma states he went to his bedroom and slept like a log the moment things got complicated, waking up next morning fully clothed. The only thing that's certain is that Asha did put his hand on her naked breast. '''That''' wasn't a dream. Laura picked up on it and wasn't amused.
* EngagementChallenge: On her own behalf! She won't even consider dating a guy who can't match her drink for drink. This makes her very, ''very'' popular with the rowdy clientele of the Crescent Moon Inn.

* ProphecyTwist: In the web-novel version, the reason she's always challenging guys to drinking contests is that a fortune-teller her parents hired mentioned that she won't be HappilyMarried if she doesn't find a man who can outdrink her. Kehma suspects that this was a back-handed attempt to get her to stop drinking, which backfired.
* SeriousBusiness: Something more important or superior to quality booze '''doesn't exist!'''
* ShipperOnDeck: In the manga version, chapter 18, she pops a confetti sprinkler and cheers Kehma on when he informs her of the impending group wedding between himself and Laura, Femille, and Lolona.

* ChivalrousPervert: He greatly appreciates the beauty of the ladies in his sphere of influence, has groped Laura's breasts on several occasions (which she enjoyed), his reaction to walking in on Femille changing was complimenting her body (as opposed to darting out of the room and shutting the door), and he has frequent erotic dreams, but he respects their boundaries and informed consent is critically important.
* CruelToBeKind: He's hard on Laura because he doesn't want her hurt. She eventually catches on and appreciates it. She still doesn't like it though.
* EndearinglyDorky: The ''least'' goofy thing about how he treats his girls is thinking that the correct reaction to accidentally walking in on one changing is to stand there and admire her body rather than apologize and get out of the room, but they like him because when push comes to shove, he comes to their rescue come hell or high-water.

* GirlishPigtails: Wears her hair in twintails and has both the innocence and joy normally associated with the trope.
* LazyBum: Deconstructed. Because she spent her time in Heaven just lazing about, she used up all her [Goddess points] and got kicked out, having to live among the mortals until the rest of the celestial bureaucracy believes she's learned her lesson, and maybe even then she'd still get stuck with the mortals.

About the only benefits she brings are being MsExposition, her [Analyze] skill, and occasionally the [Goddess] system she brings with her providing Kehma with necessities, like equipment and skills he can't gain from eating monsters, but this requires payment in the form of monetary or food contributions, which she consumes.
* ObstructiveCodeOfConduct: Early on, Kehma suggests using the [Goddess Point] system to profit by having her shop from the catalog and selling the goods on the open market. She responds that while this is a good idea, on paper, she's specifically forbidden from knowingly giving such items to the general public, and if she tries, she'd face divine judgement.
