Puddleglum

Puddleglum is described as an eternal, cheerful pessimist. His frontmost trait is his habit for expecting disaster in nearly every situation, and indeed assuming the worst in everyone. Humans may find this depressing and irritating, yet Puddleglum's fellow Marsh-wiggles consider him to be 'flighty'. Some may think him a wet-blanket, but he really does mean well. He can't help but expect the worst...and forget to hope for the best.
