Father Christmas

"I've come at last. She has kept me out for a long time, but I have got in at last. Aslan is on the move. The Witch's magic is weakening."

- Father Christmas Father Christmas was the gift-bearing figure in the World of Narnia, who came to the good creatures in Narnia the night before Christmas.

Long Winter
During the Long Winter, the White Witch's power made it so that Christmas never came in Narnia, by keeping Father Christmas out of the country. The appearance of Father Christmas at the end of the Long Winter was one of the first signs that Aslan's power was at work in Narnia, and that the Witch's power was weakening.

Before the Pevensie children and the Beavers first met Father Christmas, they heard his sleigh-bells and ran from him, assuming that he was the White Witch chasing them, since she and he both hung bells on their sleighs.

Appearance
Father Christmas was a huge man who wore a red robe (as red as hollyberries), with a hood and fur lining, a long white beard that fell all over his chest, a round stomach, and had a cheery presence. He rode a sleigh with large brown reindeer, which had bells hung on it.
