First up: Peter Pevensie, the eldest, who gets a sword and the title “High King” before he’s even finished puberty. He’s the kid who probably volunteered to lead the school project and immediately regretted it. Peter spends most of the book trying to look brave while internally screaming, “I’m only thirteen, stop looking at me!”
His big moment is fighting a wolf, which is impressive, but let’s be real: he gets handed a magical scabbard that makes him never tired. That’s not a skill, Peter—that’s a cheat code. Also, fun fact: C.S. Lewis originally planned for Peter to be the main hero, but Aslan stole the spotlight. Poor guy—he’s basically the opening act for a giant, talking lion.
