[[File:800px-Peterprincecaspianmovie_5917.jpg|frame]]

* [[Genre Savvy]]: In ''The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe'' his familiarity with fantasy stories serves him fairly well, prompting him to, for example, trust the robin which leads the Pevensies to Mr. Beaver, because robins in stories are always good creatures.

* [[The Hero]]

* [[The Magnificent]]

* [[Parental Substitute]]

Cor, also known as Shasta, was a Prince and later King of Archenland. The son of King Lune, Cor was kidnapped while still an infant and stolen away to Calormen. Years later Cor would return and save Archenland from the greatest danger it had ever faced. He eventually married his one-time travelling companion Aravis, and the two went on to rule together once King Lune died. Cor and Aravis would also have a son who would later go on to be King Ram the Great.

* [[A Friend in Need]]: Hwin reveals she can talk just when Aravis needs her the most

The Pevensie's annoying younger cousin. He first appears in ''The Voyage of the Dawn Treader''. He fancies himself (not entirely without reason) to be rather intelligent, and considers this a valid reason for nurturing an arrogant attitude toward his cousins. He accompanies Lucy and Edmund on their third trip to Narnia. Upon learning that Narnia is real, his feelings toward it go from amused disdain to fear and outright hatred. It isn't until {{spoiler|transforming into a dragon (long story) and having Aslan change him back by breaking the curse that his attitude towards Narnia and his cousins change for the better.}}

* [[Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist]]

Eustace's companion throughout The Silver Chair. Is given by Aslan the task of remembering the Signs that lead them on their journey.

* [[Took a Level In Badass]]: Between the Silver Chair and the Last Battle.

Swashbuckling talking mouse devoted to honor and chivalry. Yet behind his ferocity is a Heart of Gold.

* [[Pint-Sized Powerhouse]]

A Marshwiggle who lives in marshes and is perpetually gloomy. He guides Eustice and Jill in [[The Silver Chair]].

''The Great Lion'', a talking lion, King of the Beasts, son of the Emperor-Over-the-Sea; a wise, compassionate, magical authority (both temporal and spiritual); mysterious and benevolent guide to the human children who visit; guardian and savior of Narnia. The author, [[C. S. Lewis]], described Aslan as an alternate version of Christ—that is, as the form in which Christ might have appeared in a fantasy world.

* [[This Is Something He's Got to Do Himself]]

Jadis, commonly known as the White Witch, is the [[Big Bad|main villain]] of ''The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe''. Jadis also appears at length in ''The Magician's Nephew'', which concerns her origins and the origins of Narnia. She is the Witch who froze Narnia in the Hundred Years Winter.

* [[Woman in White]]

Introduced in ''The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe'' as an old man ("the Professor"), with whom the Pevensies have been billeted. Eventually turns out to have a [[Backstory]] connected with that of the wardrobe, as revealed in ''The Magician's Nephew''.

* [[Reasonable Authority Figure]]: Asks if Lucy is the sort of girl who makes up stories and, if not, whether that might indicate she's telling the truth.
