Mr. Tumnus

From C.S. Lewis’ “Chronicles of Narnia” series. Mr. Tumnus is a faun: a short, merry man of myth who appears to be half goat. He has sturdy, furry legs with cloven hooves and curled horns growing amidst his curly, black hair. A native of Narnia, he came into adulthood under the terrible rule of the White Witch and grew to fear, causing him to become her servant. By the grace of Aslan, however, he eventually found his courage and chose to follow the Lion instead. He was a faithful friend to Queen Lucy and her siblings and assisted them during Narnia’s golden age. Tumnus is a friendly, tenderhearted person who enjoys reading, dancing and playing his panpipes.
