List of Narnian Creatures - G

G

  • Ghoul - Ghouls are followers of The White Witch (LWW). They live in Calormen as well as Narnia, where they are known to live among graves, such as the Tombs of the Ancient Kings (HHB). They are included in the 2005 film where they are portrayed as pale goblin-like creatures, with slit-nostrils, and long, skeletal arms and legs, and are sometimes confused with goblins and boggles.
  • Giant - Giants are tall, ugly, and often dim-witted creatures. Many Giants live in the lands that lie North of Narnia, including the Giants of Ettinsmoor, who fight each other with stone hammers, and the wicked Giants of Harfang (SC). Humans are often a source of amusement, entertainment, or occasionally food for these wicked giants. However, there are also good-natured giants such as the Buffins, who are "one of the most respected of all the giant families in Narnia." (LWW). Notable Giants include Rumblebuffin (LWW), Wimbleweather (PC), and Stonefoot (LB), all of whom fight on the side of the Pevensies in their respective battles. A two-headed Giant named Pire is turned into a mountain as mentioned in The Horse and his Boy. (See also Ettin, Ogre)
  • God - There are several sorts of "gods" that appear and are mentioned in the Chronicles. There are the wild people of Narnia, such as the nymphs, satyrs, fauns, and centaurs, the male Dryads and Naiads are called Wood gods and River gods respectively, though these sorts of "gods" are not worshipped as deities and are probably not immortal. There are also gods such as Bacchus, Silenus, Pomona, and the maenads, though these too, are also not worshipped. Then there are the gods of the Calormene pantheon, such as Tash, Azaroth, and Zardeenah, though only Tash has appeared in living form, but is proven to be a demon, and the rest may simply be mythical or abstract entities worshipped in Calormen. Then there is Aslan himself; though he is never referred to as a "god" he is hailed and revered as such and has proven to be immortal and is the creator of the Narnian universe itself. It is noted that Aslan is the son of the Emperor Over-the-Sea (from beyond the sea who live in the east).
  • Gnome - (See Earthmen)
  • Gryphon - Gryphons are winged creatures that are brown in appearance. They have head and wings of an eagle (with curved beaks) and the body of a lion. They are seen in the movies as followers of Aslan and helping him in battle in both Prince Caspian and The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.
  • Gull - Mentioned in PC. Not known if they can talk.
