Tavros

Tavros is a Narnian Minotaur, who sailed as part of the crew on the Dawn Treader, in the service of King Caspian X, in 2306.

Biography
In The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (film), he is shown to be a fierce warrior, as made evident during the revolt on Narrowhaven, where he swung his battle-axe (a preferred weapon among Minotaurs) and knocked several slavers about. Yet he does have a sense of humour, shown by how he laughed broadly at when Eustace was talking to a non-talking bird.

He can be a bit clueless at times, like the time when he inadvertently scared Eustace Scrubb, causing him to faint, and asking Caspian, "Was it something I said?"

He also sometimes tends to act first and think later, particularly where his stomach is concerned, revealed by how he almost ate some of the food from Aslan's Table when they thought that it might be poisoned.

He seems quite friendly with the crew, though, shown when he helpfully carried Eustace to a cabin after he fainted, and when he was laughing with a crewmember.

He is a dedicated officer and crewmember to Drinian, and a loyal subject to Caspian. Tavros also seems particularly close friends with Jemain, the only other Minotaur on the ship, who may have been a relative of his, considering their strong resemblance.

History
Tavros was no doubt born in hiding, during the years before the War of Deliverance. Along with many other Minotaurs, he likely fought for Prince Caspian X in several battles during the war.

In 2306 NT, Tavros was selected to sail aboard the royal flagship Dawn Treader with King Caspian X. Throughout the voyage, he served as the Firstmate, giving orders to the crew and assisting Captain Drinian. He fought several times on the perilous voyage, reaching the end safely.

Nothing more is known about him.

Trivia

 * Tavros appears only in the 2010 film The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (film), and was portrayed by Shane Rangi. Tavros is thus not a part of the Narnia canon universe.
 * He has short, shaven hair/fur, likely the Minotaur equivalent of being clean shaven.
 * Assumingly, the name Tavros is a reinvention of the name "Taurus", which is the starsign of a bull.
