Cow Girl

Cow Girl (牛飼娘) is the childhood friend of Goblin Slayer and a farm hand on her uncle's farm. Her uncle took her in on his farm after her family was massacred by goblins during her childhood.

Appearance
Cow Girl is a tall beautiful woman who has red eyes and short red hair. She is often seen wearing overalls, which has one of the buckles undone.

In the Goblin Slayer Year One Manga and Light Novel, she used to have very long hair that she would hide her eyes behind. She eventually cuts it short after a suggestion by Witch.

Personality
She is calm yet cheerful, especially when it comes to Goblin Slayer.

Before she reunited with Goblin Slayer, she was often sullen, always wishing she was able to be with her best friend again.

Background
Cow Girl is the childhood friend of Goblin Slayer and her uncle took her on his farm when she was 8 years old. She is the only other survivor of her hometown besides Goblin Slayer, by virtue of working out of town just before the goblin horde ravaged everything.

Some time before the beginning of the main story, Cow Girl was looking at all the people entering the city to become adventurers when she briefly spots what she suspects to be her childhood friend.

Later, she sees him again and rushes toward him to confirm her suspicions. She is overjoyed to see that she was right and strongly suggests he sleep in the farmhouse with her and her uncle.

Goblin Slayer Volume 1
Cow Girl is first seen waking up in her barn for a new day. She then greets Goblin Slayer a good morning.

When Goblin Slayer realizes that a horde of goblins are going to attack, he urges Cow Girl to run away to the town where it will be safe. She refuses as she doesn't want to abandon the farm, which she sees as her and, more importantly, Goblin Slayer's home.

Abilities
She is an excellent cow herder and has shown to be stronger than she appears, able to pull a cart fully loaded with not much effort.

Trivia

 * Cow Girl is one of the people known by Goblin Slayer the longest. By extension, she, her Uncle, and Smith are shown to be the only people who recognize Goblin Slayer without his armor. That was before he took off his helmet during the celebration party after defeating a Goblin Lord and his army at the battle of the Farm.
