A demon befitting his self-proclaimed title of "Demon Lord", Ghirahim is rather cool and flamboyant, but these emotions quickly become replaced with more negative ones like anger, instability, irritation and remorselessness when his plans do not go accordingly. He wields powerful dark magic, embellished with rhombuses that are similar to the ones on his clothing, capable of teleportation, summoning monsters and even unleashing his true potential. | ||
When [[Link]] first meets him early in his quest to find [[Zelda]] after she falls from [[Skyloft]] by a tornado, it is revealed that Ghirahim was the one who stirred up the tornado to kidnap her. Link valiantly beats him, but Ghirahim retreats as he continues to pursue her. | When [[Link]] first meets him early in his quest to find [[Zelda]] after she falls from [[Skyloft]] by a tornado, it is revealed that Ghirahim was the one who stirred up the tornado to kidnap her.

Throughout the game, he causes many problems for Link, Zelda and {{s|zeldawiki|Impa}} by taunting and harassing them. The reason for this is eventually explained; Zelda is the physical reincarnation of the goddess {{s|zeldawiki|Hylia}} and Ghirahim was solely after Hylia's divine essence, it being the sole thing capable of reviving his master, the Demon King Demise. Near the end of the game, Link would successfully vanquish Demise with the [[Triforce]] in his time, but Ghirahim kidnaps Zelda and travels back in time via the last {{s|zeldawiki|Gate of Time}}, returning to a point [[zeldawiki:Hylia's_Realm|before]] Demise's vanquishment and successfully reviving him. Ghirahim is then revealed to be merely the spirit within Demise's sword, as Link's ally, {{s|zeldawiki|Fi}}, is to him. After Link defeats and seals away Demise permanently, Ghirahim's fate as of that point remains unclear. | Throughout the game, he causes many problems for Link, Zelda and {{s|zeldawiki|Impa}} by taunting and harassing them.
