Schierke

Schierke is mature for her age, quiet, and withdrawn. As a disciple, she was very respectful toward her mistress and was deeply saddened upon her demise. Presently, she gets along well with most of Guts' party, as well as with total strangers such as Sonia and Isma. As a result of being rather sheltered throughout her childhood, she is disdainful toward the human world and the Holy See's religion, but finds life outside of the forest bearable while traveling with her companions.

Although kind and usually friendly, she is often unsettled and annoyed by Isidro's behavior. She sees Isidro as an incompetent monkey and regularly mocks his intelligence, causing some friction between the two and frequently lends itself to comical situations. Initially, Schierke held a disliking for Guts due to his gruff and direct nature. However, time and circumstance have seen her develop an infatuation with him akin to a crush. Guts, aware of this due to an instance of Ivalera teasing Schierke, seems to simply ignore it and essentially treats her like a younger sister.

Guts is protective of Schierke, and the young girl recognizes this. When Schierke's garments are sullied by an intoxicated man during their brief stay at a nearby tavern, Guts punishes him for "staining their girl's nicest clothes," and when Sonia extends an offer to join the Band of the Falcon (Reborn), Schierke thinks of Guts before declining. Furthermore, Schierke is the only person to consistently succeed in bringing Guts out of the trance induced by the Berserker Armor, but she herself notes that the danger and difficulty of achieving this will undoubtedly increase should Guts continue to rely on it. When Roderick asks Guts if Casca is his woman, Schierke hears the answer and feels uneasy. Nevertheless, Schierke recognizes that she has something with him that no one else does: only she can keep him sane under the influence of the Berserker Armor.
