Top 10 Best Narnia Characters
The Chronicles of Narnia is a series of seven fantasy novels, later adapted into a film series, which narrate the adventures of children who play central roles in the history of the Narnian world.
I'm really happy to see that Aslan is #1 on this list. Aslan is a representation of Jesus Christ and His sacrifice for us on the cross. I honestly think that Aslan dying to save only Edmund's life is also symbolic of the fact that if only one person existed and sinned, Jesus Christ would have still died and risen again to redeem that one soul.
I also love that he's a lion - really unique writing on Lewis's part!
Aslan is very powerful and strong! He is very kind, especially with the Pevensies, and he always does the right thing. He will do anything for Narnia and the creatures that live in it. He is amazing!
What can I say about Edmund? In the first movie, after being teased by Peter and Lucy, he went to the White Witch, who promised that she would make him king. But she didn't. After Edmund reunites with Susan and Lucy, he realizes his mistake. He then participates in the war and kills the White Witch with bravery. He befriends Caspian, loves justice, and is known as the King of Justice.
When I was really little, Susan was my favorite character because I only knew her from the BBC Narnia adaptations and hadn't read the books yet. However, Edmund became my favorite character when I was about 8 years old, after I read the books all the way through and realized how his character developed and how his attitude changed.
When I was 11, The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe was released by Disney in theaters. It became one of only three movies I have seen three times in theaters. Edmund's character was shown as an excellent transformation, and it just made me love his character even more. I feel like he really shone in the movies, and Skandar Keynes did a spectacular job doing the character justice! I love watching all his scenes!
Lucy Pevensie is a fictional character in C. S. Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia series. She is the youngest of the four Pevensie children, and the first to find the Wardrobe entrance to Narnia in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. Lucy is such an amazing character. She was the first of her siblings to enter the world of Narnia. She met Mr. Tumnus and even believed that he wasn't capable of doing "such a dreadful thing as betraying a friend to the White Witch," even while he was doing it! She steered Mr. Tumnus in the right direction, and when her siblings didn't believe that she possibly entered a world through the wardrobe, she didn't give in. Even when it was hard, she continued telling the truth.
She was also so loyal and faithful that she decided to try and save Mr. Tumnus when he was taken by the Witch. Throughout the whole series, Lucy is brave, valiant, and never loses sight of what is important. Lucy sets such a great example and is the best character.
Susan Pevensie is a fictional character in C. S. Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia series. Susan is the elder sister and the second eldest Pevensie child. Susan is probably my favorite Narnia character in the movies, but in the books, she is more negative and closed-minded. I think that Anna Popplewell, who played Susan in the movies, did a really great job.
Susan's stopping believing in Narnia in The Last Battle does not change much because I know that when you forget something, it often comes back to you at the most surprising moments. Even though she may never remember Narnia again, the memory is still in her head - she just can't reach it. But she will still end up in Aslan's country when her time comes.
She is the main antagonist in all the Narnia series. As a villain, she tempts Edmund with greed and tries to learn about Aslan by killing other animals. She also wants to kill Edmund.
Queen Jadis is so evil, and I don't like her, but at the same time, I just have to! She makes the series interesting, and as a representation of the devil in the Bible, she shows you what lies the devil feeds you. (Literally, in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.) The lies may or may not come in the shape and sight of Turkish Delight.
She rules Narnia in ice and snow for 100 years, has an army of monsters, kills Aslan, can turn people to stone, and almost ruins the prophecy. Aslan barely shows his face.
I love Prince Caspian! He is very strong, brave, beautiful, gorgeous, and kind! He is also a very good king. He didn't kill Miraz when he had the chance, even though Miraz had killed his father.
I love Caspian!
I really think Caspian is the best Narnia character ever.
I think what I like about Peter and all his siblings is that they are by no means perfect. They are flawed and impatient with each other, and C.S. Lewis wrote them to act like actual siblings. I love how Peter is the big brother who looks out for his siblings. He honestly reminds me so much of my own older brother, and I think that's the main reason I enjoy his character so much!
I seriously don't understand why Peter is so underappreciated. I understand that he's already High King, so C.S. Lewis tried to take some of the focus off of him, but he seriously needs more appreciation.
He stood up for his siblings when they were in trouble, he fought for Narnia even though he had literally only been there for a day, and he's a great leader. He has a good balance of common sense and intellect. Like, please people, we need a Peter Pevensie appreciation post ASAP.
Wow... You can't get any better than Reepicheep. He is adorable (even though he would hate me for saying that, we all know it's true). He has an amazing sense of honor but also a vanity that Aslan eventually points out.
It was the saddest scene of all time to watch him ride over the waves into Aslan's world. I legit cry every single time. He is the best character. Please vote for him - the mouse deserves it.
So valiant, so friendly, and always fully committed to his desire to enter Aslan's country throughout his entire life. He will always be my inspiration.
She is the mother of Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy. She stays away from her husband, and her house gets destroyed in a missile attack. She is separated from her children. As a mother, one can't realize her pain in staying away from her children.
The Newcomers
This guy lasted until the final battle. He was a great tactician, loyal to Jadis, and had no problem killing a few Centaurs. Even after being cut off from the queen by that Phoenix, he was still alive. He was the first out of Jadis' entire army to notice the approaching griffins and called it out to the other bad guys. Then, even when he could've ignored Oreius, he clearly took notice that Oreius was heading towards Jadis and rushed to stop him. He latched himself onto Oreius and held on for dear life. Even when he was stabbed once, it took both of Oreius' swords to kill him.
YASSS! Aravis is my second favorite character (Hwin is my first). I just love her backstory and character development in The Horse and His Boy! She also kind of reminds me a bit of myself personality-wise, so I think she's really cool.
Mr. Tumnus is a sweet and underestimated character. Sure, he's got his flaws, but not everyone can be as perfect as Aslan. He was the first person Lucy bumped into in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, and he should no longer be overlooked. Mr. Tumnus for the win!
He is a very good character but also too underrated by all of the Narnia fans.
He is the foundation of Narnia with Aslan and overcomes temptation from the Witch to do good. C.S. Lewis modeled Digory on himself. Saving his mother with a magic apple from Narnia brings a tear, knowing the author mirrored Digory's pain with his own mother, who was ill and whom he lost at a young age. You can feel how he would have wished for a magic apple of his own.
Most of the movie watchers say he is the old, kind, gentle professor appearing in the movie. But hey, he is the first human to find Narnia. He was there when the world was first created.
I loved both of them so much! Bree had such great character development, with all his pride, and Shasta was just brilliantly written.
Kidnapped by the Calormenes as an infant, Shasta escapes from being sold into slavery and makes his way to Narnia.
Polly was always my favorite when I was little, probably because she didn't take any crap from Digory.
Eustace was the most annoying character in the beginning. (Will Poulter was hilarious!) But he changed his ways, much like Edmund, and became a hero.
He is what I would imagine a true knight should be. He is loyal, brave, and strong. He went straight to his death for Peter, along with the rhino. They are both awesome.
Such an amazing character! I absolutely love how he was willing to die for his country, his king, and four children he barely knew. Such an awesome character!
Puddleglum is the delightful Eeyore of Narnia - brave in the end. A delight!
Really such an awesome character! Really great in the book and the movie!
