Very fun question! Coriakin reminds me of Gandalf in his personality and how he treats his one-legged Mumph-a-somethings: crusty but kind. However, Ramandu does NOT remind me of Saruman in the least-- maybe of Elrond, though, because of the serene wisdom, long memory, beautiful and wise daughter, which would make Caspian a bit like a young Aragorn. I love the comparison between Boromir and Reepicheep! Reep's my favorite character-- I was so happy for him when he went over that wave at the end of the world. Rillian's maybe something like Faramir in getting trapped in his own mind by bad magic and needing help to get out. Puddleglum and Bilbo-- brilliant! Like that one.
