Young Warrior

A young warrior is a supporting character in Goblin Slayer Side Story: Year One. When his party disbands after a disastrous battle against a rock eater, the disgraced adventurer devotes himself to killing it.

Personality
The young warrior starts off as a proud and immodest individual. When shopping at the blacksmith, he immediately set his sights on the most powerful equipment available and upon meeting the adventurer who would become Goblin Slayer, stated his intention of killing high level monsters, despite only being a newly registered adventurer.

After one of his party members perishes in a battle against a rock eater, the young warrior descended into a state of depression, which lasts only until he decides to go confront the rock eater with numerous other adventurers. Determined to avenge his fallen comrade, he gathered enough courage to fight the creature head-on and deliver a critical blow. By the end of the affair, the young warrior is more reserved and humble, acknowledging that although he didn't deliver the killing blow to the rock eater, he did everything he could.

Goblin Slayer Side Story: Year One
Soon after registering as an adventurer, the young man went to Smith's shop looking for powerful and strong equipment. When another newly-registered adventurer entered the shop, the young man offered him to go on an adventure together, but was rebuffed after stating goblins weren't involved.

Shortly after, he managed to form a four-person party. Returning from a successful quest to some ruins, the young warrior suggested slaying a dragon, but was overruled by his party members since they were still beginners. As such, the party unanimously agreed to take a goblin slaying quest. Teaming up with another adventurer, the party killed the three goblins and rescued a lamb. The young warrior offered the adventurer a spot in his party, but was bluntly rebuffed right before the latter began dissecting a dead goblin.

He and his party later went to slay blobs in a cave. After assuring Half-Elf Ranger they would get the job done, the party was caught off guard by the sudden appearance of a rock eater which had Half-Elf Ranger's body in its jaws. The rest of the party survived the encounter, but with Half-Elf Ranger's demise and one of the adventurer's arms eaten off, they disbanded shortly after. Distraught, the young warrior drowned his sorrows with alcohol at the tavern. However, after a quest is offered for any adventurer to slay the rock eater, the young warrior volunteers to join and tags along with Heavy Warrior as a temporary party member.
