Pevensie, Edmund (1930 - 1949)

 (LWW, HHB, PC, VDT, LB)

When we first meet Edmund he is rather a nasty child who lies about meeting Lucy in Narnia and joins the side of the White Witch. He soon discovers his mistake in joining the Witch's side. Aslan sends a rescue party for him and they seize Edmund just before the White Witch attempts to kill him. Later on Aslan dies for Edmund's treachery but comes back to life because of the "deeper magic before the dawn of time". We see a changed Edmund as he returns to Narnia to aid Caspian, and along with Lucy and Eustace accompanies King Caspian on the voyage of the Dawn Treader. This is his last adventure in Narnia. In 1949 he is killed along with the others in the railway accident, aged 19.

Pevensie, Lucy (1932 - 1949)

The High King over all the Kings in Narnia, Peter is the embodiment of chivalry and honour. He's the oldest member of the Pevensie children. On his first visit to Narnia he defeats and kills Maugrim and becomes Sir Peter Wolfsbane. On the second visit to Narnia he helps free Narnia from the rule of Miraz. He is told by Aslan that he would not return to Narnia. At this point Peter was 14 years old. We hear very little of Peter until 'The Last Battle' when he meets with King Tirian within the stable after dying in a serious railway accident.

Pevensie, Susan (1927 - 19??)

 (LWW, HHB, PC)

Susan is the second eldest of the Pevensie children and after the four children are evacuated from London takes on the role of 'mother'. When Peter, Susan, Lucy, Mr Beaver and Mrs Beaver meet Father Christmas, he gives Susan a bow and arrow "which does not easily miss" and a magic horn which summons help where ever it is blown. It is Susan's magic horn which calls the Pevensie children back into Narnia to aid Prince Caspian against Miraz. Like Peter, this is Susan's last visit to Narnia. When Digory, Polly, Peter, Edmund, Lucy, Eustace and Jill die in a railway accident Susan is not with them. Peter explains that she is no longer a "friend of Narnia".

Eustace is the Pevensie's abominable cousin, with whom Edmund and Lucy go to stay during the summer holidays. He is dragged into Narnia and accompanies King Caspian on the Dawn Treader to the end of the world. His meeting with Aslan has a lasting effect on him and he returns from Narnia a changed person. It is he who comforts Jill Pole after she has been bullied whereas a year before he would have been doing the bullying. They are called into Narnia by Aslan in order to rescue Prince Rilian.
