~~==About Tumnus==~~

-

Even though he only has a few scenes, Mr. Tumnus the Faun is one of the most memorable and iconic characters in the Chronicles. He is the first fantasy creature to be introduced in the seven books, and also the first character to say the word "Narnia." The stories that Tumnus tells [[Lucy Pevensie|Lucy]] help to fill in the blanks somewhat between where ''The Magician's Nephew'' ends and ''The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe'' begins. One of the things he mentions is that before the hundred-year winter began, [[Bacchus]] and [[Silenus]] used to visit Narnia, and of course they appear later in ''Prince Caspian'' when Narnia is liberated again.

~~==Inspiration==~~

-

C. S. Lewis' inspiration for the Chronicles of Narnia came from an image he had had in his head since he was 16. It was a faun carrying an umbrella and parcels in snowy wood. "From that simple, but unusual image," Douglas Gresham said, "came the classic story called ''The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe''." Perhaps this is the reason Tumnus is one of the most well-described characters in the series.
