One of the game's antagonists, Demon Lord Ghirahim is a tall and slender fellow with pale gray skin and pink-ish hair. His bodysuit and mantle are decorated with diamond patterns and jewels. He is skilled in the ways of magic, with sorcerous powers allowing him to teleport, conjure knives, and summon a distinct black saber with which he is incredibly skilled.

He is one of several members of a tribe that rules over the surface world. His standing in this tribe, whether it be leader or merely a member, is uncertain. They seek Zelda's holy power and in an attempt to capture her, Ghirahim uses his considerable magical powers to form the massive tornado which was intended to kidnap [[Zelda]]. Before she could fall into their hands however, a supposed servant of the Goddess saved Zelda, which greatly enraged Ghirahim.

Ghirahim's regard for himself is incredibly high. He prefers to be referred to by his full title, Lord Ghirahim and he constantly mocks Link's ability in combat. His arrogance is second only to his depravity. Ghirahim enjoys bloodshed, and in his anger at the Goddess's servant's interference, he attacks [[Link]] and toys with him. He enjoys appearing out of nowhere and taunting his victims from close behind, and constantly licks his lips and at the air when he is excited about violence.

Unfortunately for Link, Ghirahim's arrogance seems justified. Link barely survives his tornado and the battle with Ghirahim himself, only surviving because of the Goddess Sword. Link's life doesn't matter to Ghirahim but he offers Link mercy after their battle, threatening to kill him if he ever interferes again.

Ghirahim also appears in a cutscene involving himself, link, zelda, and the shiekah woman, where he demonstrates the ability to conjure flames.


===Boss Strategy===
===Sky Temple Boss Strategy===
Demon Lord Ghirahim is the first boss of Skyward Sword, fought in [[Sky Temple]] as both he and Link search for Zelda. He is a frightening foe and a major enemy in the game.

Line 32: Line 33:
Ghirahim will periodically teleport behind Link, ready to match a hasty reflexive move with a counterattack. Link must quickly turn around and note what position Ghirahim's sword is in so that he can select a safe direction for his attack.

After the battle Ghirahim retreats, not because he was defeated but because he's done toying with you. This probably will not be the only fight against the Demon Lord.
===Fire Sanctuary Boss Strategy===
