Like the rest of the Patch Officiants he wears native American robes with black patterns on them, and has a hexagon shaped silver plating on the chest of his robes.

Shaman Fights Second Round
He was first seen in the Patch's Cafe serving an espresso and an cappuccino to Asakura Hao and Asakura Yoh. When Hao decided to leave, he asked Thalim for the bill and when he didn't recognize him, he also asked his name. Thalim, stuttering, introduced himself as one of the Patch officials. When Hao repeated the price of the bill, Thalim frightened said that it was the opening day and as a special offer, the first five customers drink for free.

Although of this Yoh still payed Thalim a tip for the late he made for him.

Invading the Plants
After Hao was announced the Shaman King and led by Lip and Rap to the Kings Sanctuary, Thalim went with Goldva and the other Nine Patch Officiants to guard the Plant of the Ocean.

After defeating Nichrom Thalim watches this through the cameras placed in each plant. A the group reaches the 8th plant Thalim greeds them politely remembering the tip Yoh gave earlier at the Patch Cafe and they seemingly have a friendly conversation. Ren is however unfaced by all of this and quickly oversouls his Armour Over Soul and attacks Thalim with "ElecBang" only to have it blocked by a gigantic tree that suddenly grows up around Thalim. Thalim then reveals that Ren's lightning is largely ineffective against him as the tree would just disperse the electricity into the ground. After Horohoro also fails against Thalim plants, bot Ren and Horohoro is tied up by Thalim's Clematic Over Soul.

Chocolove McDonell, however, steps up and battles him. Thalim unleashes oversoul Rafflesia to combat Chocolove's enhanced sense of smell easily overwhelming his nose. Chocolove overcomes it by stabbing his claws into his nose forcing himself to smell blood instead of the flower. Thalim then uses his O.S. Great Impatiens Balsam to attack from every angle. Chocolove begins to think about the powers the five of them have gained from training in hell, and reveals that he has yet to discover his power of wind.

As Thalim fires the gigantic seeds at him, Chocolove dissolves his Armor Over Soul and uses Pascal Avaf and Mic to Over Soul with the air itself as a medium and manipulates air currents literally eroding away all of Thalim's plants. Thalim then reveals that he knew such an attack would come and hoped to defeat Chocolove before he himself would realize it. Chocolove only chuckles and asks about his full strenght and exclaims his turn to attack creating Ayers Rock one more and ending the fight.

Trivia
