Ghim

Ghim is a fictional character from the Record of Lodoss War fantasy manga and its derivative anime franchise. Ghim's purpose is apparent right from the beginning of the series, as he is looking for a girl who is like a daughter to him and wishes to get her back from her kidnappers.

Ghim plays a major role throughout more than half of the Record of Lodoss War series, up until his death, and serves as Parn's mentor, teaching him how to fight. He plays no role whatsoever in Chronicles of the Heroic Knight, Legend of Crysania, or even Welcome to Lodoss Island.

Ghim is exclusively a fighter, and has in his possession what appears to be a Battle Axe of Returning, an axe which he can throw, and will return to him after each throw, as his axe always returns after being thrown.

It is never hinted at, as to what the age of Ghim is, but judging from his appearance, he seems somewhat old, and could be between the ages of 175 and 220.
