Gimli, along with his eventual friend Legolas does not seem to play as direct a moral part as some elements of the story. He still exhibits growth, as the Dwarves are characteristically possessive, but once Gimli recieves a gift of a hair from Galadriel, he realizes the folly of the Dwarven outlook, and becomes a more balanced character. Below is an excellent shot of Gimli from Decipher's Lord of the Rings Trading Card Game.
