Jadis' Sister
Posted: Mar 26, 2019 2:05 pm
Hey Narniawebbers,
The recent discussion of a possible expansion of the Battle of Charn got me thinking about the character of Jadis' sister. (I'll call her Mavis ) We have only a handful of hints about what she's like: In the Magician's Nephew, Jadis describes her sister as a weakling, and says that she was unscrupulous enough to break the terms of the treaty by using magic. She also describes her sister as gloating when her army defeated Jadis', not to mention blaming the whole war and the ensuing destruction of the world on her.
Some questions arise in light of all this, such as: What is Mavis really like? Is she a less cunning, more careless person than Jadis? And what kind of powers would Mavis use in the great street battle? (Other than really fast typing skills ) And what should her name be in the new series? (Since it probably won't be Mavis. )
How would you like this character to be portrayed?
Also, any casting suggestions?
