==About Trufflehunter==
 +
Trufflehunter is a loyal believer in [[Aslan]], even though the Lion has not been seen in Narnia for over a thousand years. After [[Caspian]] blows Queen Susan's horn seeking help, many of the Old Narnians, even [[Doctor Cornelius]], begin to doubt that aid will come. But Trufflehunter never loses faith. "The help will come," he says. Minutes later, High King [[Peter Pevensie|Peter]] and King [[Edmund Pevensie|Edmund]] enter Aslan's How. "Best of badgers. You never doubted us all through," [[Peter Pevensie|Peter]] says.

[[File:3786.jpg|left]]Trufflehunter lives in hiding with the other Old Narnians during Miraz's reign. When Caspian, the rightful king of Narnia, is knocked unconscious outside his den, Trufflehunter takes him in and cares for him. The Badger gives Caspian quite a shock when he awakens (he is the first Talking Beast that Caspian has ever seen). After listening to Caspian's story, Trufflehunter immediately offers his allegiance and introduces Caspian to the other Old Narnians. He fights by Caspian's side against Miraz's army. Even after it appears that blowing Queen Susan's horn has done no good, Trufflehunter maintains his belief that the help would come as the legends promised. After the second Battle of Beruna, Caspian bestows the Knighthood of the Order of the Lion on Trufflehunter.

"I wanted to kind of expand the world [of Narnia] in terms of accents. You know, the Telmarines come from the Mediterranean. Ken Stott came to me and he has just this edge to his voice and yet he was able to pull of this wonderful ernestness and he's got this very rich quality to him. So the idea of a Scottish badger seemed very appropriate." — Director Andrew Adamson
