Lilliandil

"And when they looked at her they thought they had never before known what beauty meant."

Lilliandil is Ramandu's daughter (the name which she is called by in the books), wife of King Caspian X, and the mother of King Rilian.

Description
Lilliandil was tall, dressed in a single long garment of clear blue which left her arms bare, bareheaded, with long yellow hair that hung all down her back, and incredibly beautiful. In the 2010 film adaptation of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, she wears a white dress and is surrounded by a bluish-white glow.

Childhood
Lilliandil was the daughter of Ramandu, a resting Star, and an unknown mother. She was not a Star herself, so her mother may have been human. She grew up on her father's island at the Beginning of the End of the World. Together, she and her father watched over the Stone Knife that Jadis had used to slay Aslan, which was kept on Aslan's Table in his honour. In the 2290's NY, three men appeared on the island and were enchanted to fall into a deep sleep, due to one of them daring to touch the Knife.

In 2306, another ship landed on the island, which was met by Lilliandil. They identified themselves as Narnians, friends of the three sleepers, and were led by the young King Caspian X, who was instantly smitten with the Star's lovely daughter. He asked her what breaking the spell on the sleepers would require, mentioning something about Sleeping Beauty and the kiss required to wake the princess. Lilliandil, however, replied that it was the opposite here; he must break the spell before he could kiss the princess.

The young king immediately decided to break the spell, and asked her what he must do. Ramandu gave him instructions, and Caspian and his crew sailed away, leaving behind them a Lord named Rhoop and a sailor called Pittencream. Ramandu and his daughter presumably cared for both men during their stay.

Marriage and queenship
In time, the spell was broken, and the sleeping Lords awoke. Shortly after, King Caspian and his crew returned to the island to take their people back to Narnia. While there, Caspian asked Lilliandil to come to Narnia with him, which she did. Soon after, the two were married, and Caspian made Lilliandil his queen.

She was by all accounts a good and dearly beloved queen consort. After about fifteen years of marriage, she gave birth to a son and Caspian's heir apparent, Prince Rilian, who was part star and part human. When Rilian was newly knighted, and about twenty years old, he and the queen, together with some courtiers, went maying in the Narnian forests. While resting apart from the others, the queen was attacked by a green serpent. Her screams were heard by the courtiers, who rushed to her aid, but were too late to save her. Before she died, the queen seemed to try hard to tell Rilian something, but was unable to say it before the serpent's venom took hold.

It is unknown what she was trying to say to Rilian before she died, but it was discovered later that the serpent, which killed her, was in actuality a witch whose true aim was to kidnap the prince. It is possible, but speculative, that the queen realized this, and was trying to warn her son.

Afterlife
Following her tragic death, Lilliandil went to Aslan's Country where she lived happily, and was eventually reunited with her husband ten years later. Rilian later joined his parents, though it is unknown when he died. Lilliandil was among the many Narnians present at the Great Reunion following the end of Narnia, along with her husband, son, and father.

Adaptations

 * In the 1989 BBC TV series, Ramandu's daughter is played by Gabrielle Anwar. In the 1990 sequel, she is un-credited, but possibly played again by Gabrielle Anwar.
 * In the 2010 film adaptation, Ramandu's daughter is played by Australian actress, Laura Brent. This is the only adaptation to name her (the book series called her only "Ramandu's daughter"). Her name was created by producer Douglas Gresham. In the movie, she is apparently a full-blooded star (being the Blue Star that guides the crew of the Dawn Treader to Ramandu's island and the Dark Island), not a half-star, though again there is no mention of her mother, and her father is mentioned by her (and is the namesake of the island), but doesn't make an appearance.
