Jaim Torfinn

Author: Atarah al'Norahn

General

Jaim Torfinn is a young man from the Two Rivers in Andor (The Shadow Rising, Chapter 56).

He is one of the first men to ride with Perrin. After the rescue of the Cauthons and Luhhans from the Whitecloaks, Perrin chooses Jaim Torfinn and Hu Marwin to escort the rescued prisoners back to Emond's Field (The Shadow Rising, Chapter 33; The Shadow Rising, Chapter 56). Jaim is actually referred to as "Haim" when Perrin sends him and Hu back to Emond's Field with the prisoners, but Perrin latter thinks to himself about Hu Marwin and Jaim Torfinn missing the Trolloc ambush in the Waterwood, so "Haim" is likely a typo.

Because Jaim and Hu did not participate in the Trolloc hunt, they feel too uncomfortable to join the Companions, as if the fact that they were not at the ambush has opened a gap between them and the other men who rode with Perrin (The Shadow Rising, Chapter 56).

Perrin sees Jaim participating in the big battle against the Trollocs (The Shadow Rising, Chapter 56).
