Trumpkin

Trumpkin was a Dwarf with a red beard. He lived during the reign of Caspian X.

Narnian Revolution
During the Narnian Revolution Trumpkin was an Old Narnian, he along with the badger Trufflehunter, and the dwarf Nikabrik found Caspian X after he fell of his horse during a storm. While deciding what to do with the young Telmarine Trumpkin stated that they should have killed him at once or let him be, however when he learned that Caspian was the true king of Narnia he became a loyal friend and supporter of the young king.

He did not believe in Aslan, nor did he believe that any help would come from the blowing of the horn of Queen Susan, but he was willing to go down to the river mouth near Cair Paravel to intercept any help that did come and lead them to Aslan's How. Before leaving, he advised Caspian to not let the Old Narnian army know of the aid expected to come from the blowing of the horn. Along the way, he heard the blowing of the horn, and moved on through the night.

He attempted to take a short cut across open country, but was captured by a Telmarine in the service of Miraz, who was in charge of a little castle by the coast. He was tied up and gagged and almost killed. He was then sent down to the ruins of Cair Paravel to be executed by drowning. However, when he was saved by the four Pevensies who were summoned to Narnia by the blowing of the horn, he told them the story of how Caspian joined the Old Narnians. Then, after a little sword duel with Edmund and an archery contest with Susan, he followed them up Glasswater Creek to Aslan's How. He also stabbed and killed Nikabrik.

He was injured during battle. When the other survivors returned to Aslan's How Lucy gave him a drop of her magic potion to heal him. He replied to her by saying "Thank you my dear little friend."

Trumpkin became close to Lucy in particular. When she first said she saw Aslan over the river, he thought she was crazy. Lucy says to the pevensies and Trumpkin ' I wish you would all stop talking like grown ups' Trumpkin laughed and joked ' I am a grown up'

Before returning to England, Lucy hugs Trumpkin and says that she will remember her dear little freind

In The Silver Chair
In The Silver Chair it is revealed that Caspian has made him a Lord of Narnia and he is in charge when Caspian goes away in search of Aslan. By this time he has become extremely fat and deaf, which leads to an amusing exchange between him and Glimfeather.
