She fairly gleefully takes part in the conquest of the North, a bloody, spectacularly stupid and petty affair that takes place solely because it can. She may not be gratuitously cruel or sadistic, and she doesn’t directly take pleasure in tormenting or killing defenseless noncombatants, but plenty of tormenting and killing of defenseless noncombatants takes place in any war, including this one. Killing of combatants isn’t such hot shit either! Especially when the only reason you’re fighting them is to, in classic D&D fashion, kill them and take their stuff.

To Asha’s credit, she knows when she’s beaten, she knows a losing cause, and again, she’s not a sadist. But she’s certainly a bully and a creep.

The thing I find most admirable about her? She enjoys sex! Fun, consensual, hot sex. Good for her. Stop invading random Northern towns and murdering people so you can take their shit, though.

Not really clear here on what makes Asha any different from every other male leader and warrior in Westeros. They are at war, so there is brutality for sure. She is notably less cruel than most of them, though. But gosh, she likes to fuck, so at least that part of her is super!
