Encyclopedia > List of Narnian creatures

Narnian creatures' are any non-human inhabitants of Narnia, the fantasy world created by C. S. Lewis as a setting for his The Chronicles of Narnia. This is a series of commentaries on the creatures of Narnia. Entries include information on physical, habitual, and behavioural elements of the creatures, as well as noting any important members of the species. Each commentary draws on specific references and citations from the seven books. Many animals that are found in our world are also present in Narnia. Some species include Talking Beasts. At the birth of Narnia, Aslan the Lion stares at certain animals and breathes upon them. This enabled them to think and talk in a manner similar to humans, and also altered their size (MN). Smaller Talking Beasts - such as rodents, birds and small mammals - are generally larger than their non-talking counterparts, whereas larger Talking Beasts are generally smaller than average[citation needed]. There is never any mention of talking fish or insects.Lewis freely drew on various sources for inspiration; the creatures contained in this include many from classical mythology and many from English folklore.[1] Image File history File links Question_book-3. ...

  • Badger: Talking Badgers are intelligent, kind, and steadfast. They side with Aslan and his followers whenever battle erupts. One of the Badgers, Trufflehunter, has "a curiously earthy, husky voice". He refuses to wear armour, claiming instead that he can protect himself with his claws and teeth (PC).
  • Bat: Giant Bats are present among the horde of the White Witch at the sacrifice of Aslan (LWW).
  • Bear: Talking Bears are large, gentle, child-like creatures. A Bear is traditionally one of the Marshals of the Lists. They are depicted as strong but gentle creatures, who pass their time napping and eating honey. One prominent family of bears are the Bulgy Bears, the elder of which is known to suck his paw at inopportune moments. At one point a non-talking grey bear is killed for its meat, and is referred to by the name Bruin (literally meaning "brown"), the time-honoured poetic title for a bear (SC).
  • Beaver: Mr. and Mrs. Beaver are among the rebels who fight against the White Witch (LWW). It is they who explain the plight of Narnia to the Pevensies and first help them escape the Witch's minions. Lewis states that the White Witch exterminated most of the Beavers. The town of Beaversdam sits where the dam of Mr. and Mrs. Beaver was once situated(PC).
  • Birds of the Morning: Large white birds that fly from the sun and present fire-berries to a Star named Ramandu in The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.
  • Black Dwarf: (See Dwarf)
  • Boar: Talking Boars are fierce fighters, and use their tusks to gash enemies. A loyal Boar is among the Narnian fighters in The Last Battle.
  • Boggle: Boggles are followers of the White Witch (LWW). According to A Guide to Narnia, [2] "boggle" is another name for a Hobgoblin. In the 2005 film, they are portrayed as troll-like imps with mole and swinish features.

C

  • Cat: Cats are aloof, cunning, graceful creatures. One Talking Cat, Ginger, is in league with the evil Calormenes. When Tash arrives to take Rishda Tarkaan, Ginger is so terrified by the dark god that he loses his power of speech (LB). A "cat-a-mountain", or wildcat, is one of the creatures turned into stone by the White Witch (LWW).
  • Cattle: Bulls are shown several times in the corse of the series. in LWW they are shown fighting for Aslan but in LB a bull is shown fighting for the Tirian. No cows are shown in the series.
  • Centaur:The centaurs of Narnia are noble beings and are one of the most loyal creatures to Aslan and to Narnia. They have the head, torso, and arms of a human but have the four legged body of a horse joining at the human's wait and horse's shoulders. Their horse bodies are generally chestnut colored with human hair and beards in colors matching that of chestnut, though some have blonde hair and black hair as well. They are masters of astronomy and divination, being able to read the stars and tell of future events. They are also proficient warriors and healers. It is said in Narnia that no one ever laughed at a centaur and that no one who valued his life would ever saddle a centaur (if offered the opportunity). They also have two stomachs, a human stomach and a horse stomach, which means they eat large quantities of human food and horse feed. In the film, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, they are portrayed as having blonde hair and clean-shaven faces or black haired and full bearded, with brown horse bodies. In the BBC adaptation, The Chronicles of Narnia, they are not seen in The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe episodes, though a statue of a centaur could be seen near the White Witch's throne, In the Prince Caspian and the Voyage of the Dawn Treader episodes, Glenstorm is portrayed as having a white horse body and golden-brown hair and beard. A centaur appears again in several scenes in The Silver Chair episodes, again having a white horse body but has white hair and beard. In the 2005 film, many centaurs are portrayed and they are seen throughout Aslan's camp and in the battle. Their leader is General Oreius, who has black hair a goatee, and a black horse body. They use swords and lances in the battle, while Oreius uses two long swords and a claymore. Female centaurs are portrayed as members of Peter Pevensie's army, being positioned as archers with the dwarfs, they use longbows as their weapons. Centaurs will appear again in the upcoming The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian, this time with whole families of centaurs, including child centaurs.
  • Note: In Greek tales, centaurs were a wild race who were violent, womanizing, and usually intoxicated. The centaurs of Narnia are based of the centaur, Chiron, who, unlike the other centaurs, was a noble, wise, and powerful being.

D

  • Deer: (See Stag)
  • Dog: The Talking Dogs of Narnia are intelligent creatures, although they retain much of their canine behaviour. For instance , one group of Dogs is described as putting "their front paws on the shoulders of the humans and licking their faces". Dogs consider it a great offense to be called a "boy" or a "girl" by another dog. This is considered to be the same sort of insult as a human calling another human a "dog" (LB).
  • Donkey: Lewis portrays Donkeys as kind but foolish beasts. Only one Donkey, Puzzle, is ever mentioned by name in the novels. He is a Talking Donkey who is tricked by Shift the Ape, and plays a key role in (LB). Although no other donkeys are mentioned by name, they do make occasional appearances, such as when Silenus is seen riding upon a Donkey during the Bacchanalia (PC).
  • Dragon: Dragons are scaly fire-breathing creatures with bat-like wings. They exist throughout various regions of the Narnian world. A dragon is recorded as having once lived on an island in the Eastern Sea where he guarded a hoard of treasure. It is possible for a person to turn into a dragon by sleeping on this pile of treasure (VDT). In the Underlands, there are "dozens of strange animals lying on the turf, either dead or asleep, Jill could not tell which. These were mostly of a dragonish or bat-like sort" (SC). At the end of time in The Last Battle, these creatures wake up and begin "crawling and sliding down into Narnia" appearing as "great dragons and giant lizards". Dragons are generally sentient beings even though they cannot talk, for it is possible for a human to communicate with them (SC). There is also a stone statue of what appears to be a dragon in the courtyard of the White Witch (LWW). (See also Salamander)
  • Dryad: (See Nymph)
  • Duffer or Dufflepud: (See Monopod)
  • Dwarf: Dwarfs, or "The Sons of Earth" exist in Narnia in two separate varieties: Black Dwarfs and Red Dwarfs. Black Dwarfs are so called for their dark beards that are "as thick and hard as horsehair",while Red Dwarfs have hair "rather like a Fox's" (PC). In Narnia, dwarfs are around 3 feet tall. Throughout the books the Black Dwarfs tend to side with the White Witch while the Red Dwarfs usually side with Aslan. An example of this is shown in Prince Caspian where a Black Dwarf, Nikabrik, defends the White Witch, saying that she is "not an enemy to the Dwarfs (PC)", while Trumpkin, a Red Dwarf, is loyal to the King. Prince Caspian's tutor, Doctor Cornelius, is said to be descended from Dwarfs and humans. There are also "evil dwarfs" present among the witch's horde at the sacrifice of Aslan (LWW) Their appearance and loyalties aside, the Red and Black Dwarfs seem to be otherwise similar. Dwarfs live in small, tight knit communities. There is never any mention of female dwarfs in the books, although it is possible for there to be females of dwarfish descent, as the males are said to occasionally mingle and reproduce with human women. Likewise female Dwarfs have so far not been shown in the films, although there is a scene in the special edition of the 2005 film where Edmund is walking through Jadis' courtyard and a glimpses a statue of a female dwarf in the arms of her husband. Dwarfs are prolific smiths, miners, and carpenters. In battle, they are renowned archers and can march all day and all night without becoming tired (LB). Late in the series the distinction between Black and Red Dwarfs begins to fade as they become increasingly uninterested in the dealings of men. Eventually nearly all of the Dwarfs adopt the mantra "the Dwarfs are for the Dwarfs" and kill anybody who crosses their path, be they good or evil. They are the only creatures to completely reject Aslan's return and thus become blinded to the paradise that Narnia has become (LB). In Narnia the plural for Dwarf is "dwarfs" rather than "dwarves".

E

  • Eagle: Eagles are quick, keen hunters. Lewis writes that it is "a treat to watch their grace and ease", and that they have strange voices (LB). One notable Eagle is Far-sight.Eagles also rescue Edmund in (LWW).
  • Earthmen: Earthmen are the gnome-like natives of Bism, a land which lies far beneath the surface of the Narnian earth. In The Silver Chair, the Lady of the Green Kirtle places the Earthmen under an enchantment and forces them to dig a tunnel to the surface of Narnia in preparation for her invasion. They seem to take this duty very seriously, for when Eustace and Jill encounter them they "all carried three-pronged spears in their hands, and all were dreadfully pale, and all stood as still as statues." However despite such uniform behaviour they vary greatly in appearance. Lewis states that they are "of all sizes, from little gnomes barely a foot high to stately figures taller than men." Later he remarks that "some had tails and others not, some wore great beards and others had very round, smooth faces, big as pumpkins. There were long, pointed noses, and long, soft noses like small trunks, and great blobby noses. Several had single horns in the middle of their foreheads". (SC).
  • Efreet: Efreeti are followers of the White Witch. They are briefly mentioned in The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.
  • Elephant: Elephants are among the largest animals in Narnia. The Talking Elephants shrink noticeably, however, when Aslan creates the Talking Beasts. The first Elephant is present at the First Council of Narnia, and his wife vainly takes great pride in the length of her trunk (MN).
  • Ettin: Ettins are followers of the White Witch (LWW). Historically they have been represented as similar to giants, but with two heads. It seems this connection may be shared in Narnia, as they lend their name to the Giant-inhabited land of Ettinsmoor (SC). (See Giant)

F

  • Falcon: Lucy mentions how the Pevensies used falcons during their hunting parties back when they were kings and queens (VDT).
  • Faun: Fauns are woodland creatures with the legs of a goat and the upper body of a human. They characteristically have curly hair, glossy black hair and fur, small horns resembling those of a goat, and long tails. They enjoy dancing and playing music, and their faces are simultaneously "mournful and merry". One faun, Mr. Tumnus is the first character Lucy Pevensie meets when she enters Narnia. Dryads frequentley join in their dances, while Naiads and Satyrs join in occasionally. In classical mythology of the sort that Lewis employs, there are never female fauns. Male fauns typically reproduce with nymphs, or sometimes, human women, although it is unknown if this point is shared in Narnia (LWW). In the 2005 Film, their fur and hair is brown or blondeish instead of black, have slender goat legs, and have regular goat tails instead of long tails.
  • Fish: The fish that inhabit the Narnian waterways are wide and varied, but are known to include earthly fish including trout (LWW) as well species indigenous to Narnia such as pavanders. In the books it is not specified whether or not there are talking fish in Narnia, although none are ever mentioned. (See Pavander)
  • Fox: Foxes are sly, intelligent creatures. A Fox is present at the Christmas party where the White Witch turns the merry-makers into stone (LWW). Another Fox bites the Giant Wimbleweather when he treads on its tail (PC). A fox called Slinky joins the Calormene side in the last battle. (LB). In the film version of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe a fox helps the Pevensies to escape from the White Witch's secret police.

G

  • Ghoul: Ghouls are followers of the White Witch (LWW). They live in Calormen as well as Narnia, where they are known to live among graves, such as the Tombs of the Ancient Kings (HHB). They are included in the 2005 film where they are portrayed as pale goblin like creatures, with slit-nostrils, and long, skeletal arms and legs, and are sometimes confused with goblins and boggles.
  • Giant: Giants are tall, ugly, and often dim-witted creatures. Many Giants live in the lands that lie North of Narnia, including the Giants of Ettinsmoor, who fight each other with stone hammers, and the wicked Giants of Harfang (SC). Humans are often a source of amusement, entertainment, or occasionally food for these wicked giants. However, there are also good-natured giants such as the Buffins, who are "one of the most respected of all the giant families in Narnia." (LWW). Notable Giants include Rumblebuffin (LWW), Wimbleweather (PC), and Stonefoot (LB), all of whom fight on the side of the Pevensies in their respective battles. A two-headed Giant named Pire is turned into a mountain in the The Horse and his Boy. (See also Ettin, Ogre)
  • God: There are several sorts of "Gods" that appear and are mentioned in the Chronicles. There are the wild people of Narnia, such as the nymphs, satyrs, fauns, and centaurs, the male Dryads and Naiads are called Wood Gods and River Gods respectively, though these sorts of "gods" are not worshipped as deities and are probably not immortal. There are also Gods such as Bacchus, Silenus, Pomona, and the maenads, though these too, are also not worshipped. Then there are the Gods of the Calormene pantheon, such as Tash, Azaroth, and Zardeenah, though Only Tash has appeared in living form, but is proven to be a demon, and the rest are probably just stone idols that are exalted in Calormen. Then there is Aslan himself, though he is never referred to as a "god" he is hailed and revered as such and has proven to be immortal and is the creator of the narnian universe itself.

H

  • Hag: Hags are followers of the White Witch who help bind Aslan to the Stone Table in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. They appear extremely loyal to the Witch as one Hag later attempts to bring back the ghost of the Witch through sorcery. She is described as having a "shrill, whining voice", and calls herself a "poor old woman". Her nose and chin stick out "like a pair of nut-crackers", and she has dirty grey hair (PC). In the Disney films, they are portrayed as somewhat bird-like, with beak-like mouths, and crome-dome heads.
  • Half-Breed: Half-Breeds are beings that have been born from parents who are not of the same species.The sons and daughters of King Frank and Queen Helen married Dryads and Naiads and had children with them, from these came the Archenlanders and later the Calormenes. Jadis and her race were desendents from the unions of Giants and Jinni. During the reign of Miraz and the Telmarines, dwarfs disguised themselves as humans and interbred with humans, and from these unions came the Half-Dwarfs, whom Dr. Cornelius and Caspian's nurse are one of, Prince Rilian is part-Star, since his mother, Caspian's wife, was the daughter of the Star Ramandu.
  • Hamadryad: (See Nymph)
  • Hare: One of the Old Narnians Caspian is first introduced to is a Hare called Camillo. (PC). Jewel the Unicorn tells Jill about the legendary Hare Moonwood of old. (LB).
  • Hedgehog: Hedgehogs are members of Caspian's army in (PC)[citation needed] One of the creatures Caspian is introduced to when he meets the Old Narnians is a hedgehog called Hogglestock. (PC) One of the first creatures Shasta meets in Narnia is a rather slow-witted hedgehog. (HHB).
  • Horror: Horrors are followers of the White Witch, no further description is ever given of them. Though in the video game, they are portrayed as black ghost-like spirits with long arms, and glowing eyes that guard the White Witch's stone prisoners and are vulnerable to sunlight.(LWW)
  • Horse: Both speechless and Talking Horses exist in Narnia.

  • Marsh-wiggles are a race of frog-like humanoids that inhabit the marshes of northern Narnia, south of the River Shribble. They are described as having large ears and green-grey dreadlocks. They have strong leathery skin and very long limbs attached to short torsos. Both their hands and their feet are webbed, as it says in The Silver Chair, "like a duck's". Internally, they are evidently significantly different from humans, although the difference is not specified. For instance, when Puddleglum's hand was chewed by Golg the Earthman, it is not nearly as damaged as it would have been if Puddleglum had been a human.Marsh-wiggles are known for their pessimistic and depressed views on life. They live in large wigwams usually set apart from one another, as Marsh-wiggles like their privacy. They are not a very technologically-advanced race, but they do possess both bows and swords. Marsh-wiggles fish for food. They usually catch and consume a creature known as a mudfish, but are very fond of eels when they can get them. The tobacco that they use gives off smoke that is heavier than air. It is said that they mix the tobacco with mud. They also consume a strong, unnamed alcoholic beverage. Marsh-wiggles do most of the work relating to water and fish in Narnia. Jill Pole and Eustace Scrubb are ferried across the Fords of Beruna by a marsh-wiggle. Marsh-wiggles also help dock ships at Cair Paravel. The only Marsh-wiggle named in the series is Puddleglum who appears in The Silver Chair.

  • Minotaur: Minotaurs have the head of a bull and the body of a man.

In the movies, they are are more bull-like with bull legs, tails and body fur. In the film, the general of the White Witch's Army is a minotaur called Otmin.
  • Mole: The Talking Moles of Narnia are excellent tunnelers and gardeners. During the reign of the Pevensie children, the chief mole, Lilygloves, plants an apple orchard which the Pevensies partake of when they return hundreds of years later. In Prince Caspian, the Moles are keen to propose digging trenches for no particular reason. Later in the same book, Clodsley Shovel and his Moles dig up turf for the treepeople to eat.
  • Monopod (also called Dufflepud): Monopods are a variety of one-legged dwarf. Lewis specifies that this leg is directly under their torso and "not to one side like the leg of a one-legged man". Their feet are described as "enormous... with the toes curling up a little". They occasionally use their foot as a boat and row themselves around with paddles. They were once normal dwarfs, ruled by the fallen star Coriakin, however they rejected him in favor of their Chief and were transformed into their present state as punishment. They are not as clever as the other dwarfs, and follow the word of their Chief to the letter. (VDT).
  • Mouse: Unlike the other Talking Animals, Mice did not gain the gift of speech during Narnia's creation. Instead they were given it as a gift for their kindness, after a group of them chewed Aslan free from his bonds as he lay dead on the Stone Table. The Talking Mice, including Reepicheep and Peepiceek, are larger than normal Mice. They are loyal, brave, and noble creatures, and excellent with swords (PC).

  • Naiad: (See Nymph)
  • Nymph: Nymphs are nature spirits that live in the trees and waters, they are capable of leaving their tree or watery domains and assuming a physical body resembling human form. They are so spiritually tied to their places of nature that, if it was destroyed, the nymph bound to that place will die. They are capable of consorting with human men and women and can produce children with them. The term "nymph" is usually used to refer to female Dryads, Hamadryads, and Naiads, though the term "goddess" can apply as well. Originally from classical mythology. Though there are no male nymphs in mythology, Lewis does mention male wood gods and river gods as the husbands, brothers, and fathers of nymphs. Wood nymphs and water nymphs were present at Aslan's camp playing harps upon the arrival of the Pevensies and the Beavers.
  • Note: In the drawing in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe depicting Aslan and his entourage, Pauline Baynes draws the dryads and naiads as slanted-eyed and afro-haired women with elfish ears and skin colors and clothes matching each specific nymph(i.e. green for dryads and blue for naiads.), but as for previous and most subsequent illustrations, they are drawn as human looking young women with blonde or black hair, only still wearing dresses in colors corresponding to each type of nymph.

Dryads are tree nymphs that are capable of leaving their trees and assuming a physical body almost identical to human form. Each individual dryad is spiritually bound to a specific tree and if that tree dies or is cut down, its dryad will die as well. Female dryads, which are very common, usually inhabit such trees such as beeches, silver birches, larches and willows, while male dryads, who are usually referred to as "Wood Gods", are spiritually tied to trees like oaks, elms, hollies, and rowans. They are fond of dancing and often dance with fauns. They are described as having heads crowned with leaves, wearing garments matching the colors of their specific trees(i.e. birch girls wearing silver, beech girls wearing fresh, transparent green, and larch girls wearing green so bright, it looked yellow), and as having their trees' characteristics(i.e. pale, slender birch girls, long haired willow women, queenly, graceful beeches, shaggy, wizened oak men, lean, melancholy elms, dark, shock headed hollies, and happy, cheerful rowans). They are capable of marrying human men and women and sire children with them. There are several other kinds of tree spirit besides dryads but at times wood spirits are called dryads as a whole. .(MN), (LWW), (PC), (SC), and (LB). A Naiad by John William Waterhouse, 1893. ...

Hamadryads are tree nymphs similar to dryads, but are not described as whether they are a separate kind of tree spirit or a sub species of dryad.

Silvans are tree spirits, although Lewis does not tell the reader whether they are a separate kind of tree spirit or a sub species of dryad. Silvan means "related to trees".

Tree People are wood gods and goddesses who use their trees as their physical bodies.

They have roots for feet and wade in the earth like humans do in water. A whole swarm of trees dance sleepily around Lucy and Aslan when they are reunited, and even aid the Old Narnian Army in defeating the Telmarines. Lewis states that tree people usually eat a variety of soils, such as loam or bits of silver sand and the like.(PC). Trees have played an important role in many of the worlds mythologies and religions. ... Prince Caspian is a novel for children by C. S. Lewis, first published in 1951. ...

Naiads are nymphs of the rivers, wells, and streams. They can leave their watery domains and assume physical bodies resembling human form. When a stone bridge is built over a river, the naiads in it will become imprisoned in the river. They have been known dance with fauns and dryads occasionally. Four river nymphs are mentioned as being train bearers for Queen Helen. They are capable of marrying human men and women and siring children with them.(MN), (LWW), and (PC). Naiad by John William Waterhouse, 1893 In Greek mythology, the Naiads (from the Greek νάειν, to flow, and νἃμα, running water) were a type of nymph who presided over fountains, wells, springs, streams, and brooks, as river gods embodied rivers, and some very ancient spirits inhabited the still waters of...

River Gods are water spirits of the same species as the naiads, but are male in form. River gods, as their name goes, only inhabit rivers while water nymphs inhabit rivers inclusively. One River God is mentioned rising out of the Great River of Narnia with his nymph daughters, and other river gods are mentioned as becoming husbands to the daughters of King Frank and Queen Helen. Another River God is mentioned lifting his head from the river with the river nymphs upon hearing Aslan's roar. He appears again and asks Aslan to loose his chains.

It came up on what they first took to be a huge neck, but as more and more of it emerged everyone knew that this was not its neck but its body ... "

Adaptations

Narnian creatures that are not mentioned in Lewis' books but that appear in film or game adaptations of The Chronicles of Narnia include the following:


Disney Movie Adaptations

  • Ankle Slicer: These creatures were created for the Disney film adaptation of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and do not appear in Lewis's works. They are small reptilian creatures with parrot-like heads. They average about a foot in height. True to their name, Ankle Slicers bring down their enemies by slicing through their ankles with sharp scythes.
  • Cheetah: Fights with Aslan's army.
  • Cyclops Rager: Brutal one-eyed warriors loyal to the White Witch. They are surprisingly intelligent, and are skilled in swordfighting, using spears and many other forms of combat.
  • Goblin: Goblins fight for the White Witch. They are portrayed as a different race from Ghouls and Boggles, but are confused with them.
  • Griffin: Magnificent creatures, part-eagle and part-lion with large ears. They have mastered both land and air, and are valuable fighters in Aslan's army. They also appear in the older, animated film.
  • Minoboar: Part man, part boar. One of the White Witch's most dangerous henchmen.
  • Polar Bear: Three of them pull the White Witch's chariot into battle. They look particularly more ferocious (because of their teeth) than in real life.
  • Rhinoceros: These creatures only appear in the Disney film adaptation of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and not in Lewis's works. In that movie, Rhinos are one of the largest animals loyal to Aslan. Almost nothing can stop them when they charge through their enemies. Nothing, surprisingly, except Ankle Slicers, the White Witch's smallest minions.
  • Harpies: Horrifying bat-like creatures that serve the White Witch. The fact that they can fly high above their foes and are swift enough to avoid arrows makes them one of the hardest of opponents to defeat. They attack by dropping large rocks from above. Only a flying opponent can fight them.
  • White Tiger: Fights with the White Witch's army, in some shots they are seen as powerful enough to kill an armored centaur or a bear.
