Humans (只人 (ヒューム) , Hyūmu) are the most common non-monster race seen in Goblin Slayer in the Four-Cornered World.

Overview[]

Humans are the most populous race in the setting of Goblin Slayer. A human is considered an adult when they turn fifteen, as shown with Priestess[1] and Hero[2] when they both had to leave their respective temples. Humans lack the ability to see in the dark,[3] but excel in throwing compared to other races.[4][5] Some of the humans believe that they are the Supreme race among all the other races and God favored them. Humans are capable of breeding with elves thus producing half-elves.

Sub-Cultures[]

Vikings[]

Vikings or People of the Bay are an ethnic group of humans that live beyond the northern mountains of the world.

The lands where the Vikings dwell are said to be beyond the mountains where the Harefolk dwell. They tell tales of how the lands there are terrifying and serve as a cautionary warning to stay away as roughnecks thrive there and rob people.[6]

Some of the Vikings' ways, while seen normal to them, can be quite barbarous to outsiders; In the north, they are regarded as pirates and thieves. In fact, they are raiders and traders by nature due to the harsh North and make war amongst other tribes to take resources. Such actions are not done through malice, but are seen as inspiration of greater confidence.

Vikings also practice slavery which they use as a method of cheap labor; even women are taken during these raids, and those who were abducted were recognized as married to their kidnappers. The tradition is universal to all the tribes, and those taken do not show anger nor fear but excitement and joy as the abduction is seen as proof of their husband's intelligence, goodwill, and martial valor to steal themselves a bride.

Vikings do not have much interaction with other races, though are aware of the existence of Elves and Dwarves. They have aggressive encounters with Goblins or "Orcs" as they are called in their homeland.[7]

The Vikings while originally independent have since joined the Kingdom after one of its knights married the Húsfreya.

Desertfolk[]

The Desertfolk are an ethnic group of humans that live in the Desert wastes to the East, forming the Desert Kingdom. They traditionally worship the Trade God and the Wind God.
