Ramandu

Ramandu was a star at rest and the father of Caspian X's wife. While resting, he guarded the knife that killed Aslan.

Biography
It is unknown when Ramandu was a celestial star still in the sky. After many years, however, he became tired, as all stars do, and returned to earth. During his rest, he lived on his own island with his daughter, at the beginning of the end of the world. Each morning his island was visited by fire-birds who brought him one life-giving fire-berry from Aslan's Country. Each day's berry would make him lose some of his age, and once he was fully rested, he could again regain his status as a celestial star. During his time as an earth-bound star, he and his daughter together guarded the ancient knife of the White Witch, which killed Aslan. In the 2290's NY, his island was discovered by the Telmarine lords Mavramorn, Argoz, and Revilian, one of whom touched the Witch's knife, causing all three to fall under an enchanted sleep. IN 2306, a ship called the Dawn Treader docked at his island, searching for the three lords and for Aslan's Country. This party was led by King Caspian X of Narnia, who quickly fell in love with Ramandu's daughter. They left briefly to lift the spell, leaving two Narnians with Ramandu, but returned and took all the foreigners with them. At this time, Ramandu's Daughter also left him to sail to Narnia at the request of King Caspian. It is possible that Ramandu eventually returned to the skies and shone again as a star.

Appearance
Ramandu appeared as an old man with silver hair which fell nearly to his feet, and a long silvery beard. He wore a silver robe, and seemed to have a faint glow coming from him at all times. Though he appeared human, he stated that although in our world stars are made of balls of flaming gas, that is not what they are.
