Lore & Background
Red Dwarfs are kind and loyal to Aslan, while Black Dwarfs tend to be hostile and selfish and sided with the White Witch during the Age of Winter. Both kinds are skilled miners, smiths and carpenters, and deadly archers. Trumpkin, a Red Dwarf, helps Caspian's resistance against the Telmarines and comes to believe in Aslan; Nikabrik, a Black Dwarf, tries to persuade Caspian to bring back the White Witch before the Pevensies arrive.
