What is Lyra's daemon called?
Lyra's daemon is named Pantalaimon (Pan for short), who is still young enough to change shape, but he typically prefers the form of an ermine. Pan is voiced by Kit Connor in the HBO series. There's also Lord Asriel's daemon Stelmaria, who is in the shape of an imposing snow leopard and is voiced by Helen McCrory.
What is the name of Malcolm's daemon?
During his childhood, Malcolm made friends with Hannah Relf and the nuns at Godstow Priory whom he would visit regularly. His dæmon was named Asta, and she settled as a ginger cat.
What animal is Roger's daemon?
Roger Parslow
Roger's dæmon, named Salcilia, often appears as a terrier. Roger is kidnapped by the General Oblation Board ("the Gobblers") and taken to their experimental centre in Bolvangar. When Lyra arrives there he assists her in helping the children escape and goes on with her to see Lord Asriel in Svalbard.
Is the golden monkey Mrs Coulter daemon?
Ozymandias, also named the Golden Monkey, is the secondary antagonist of His Dark Materials and is the dæmon of Marisa Coulter. He is a very cruel, sadistic, merciless daemon who enjoys tormenting others of his kind, unlike most daemons in the series.
Why is Marisa Coulter mean to her daemon?
Simply put Mrs. Coulter hates her daemon because she hates herself. She causes her daemon pain and experiences pain herself; she berates her daemon because she can't effectively berate herself. She controls her daemon because she wants to control herself.
Was Mrs Coulter separate from her daemon?
Most notably Coulter is apparently able to separate from her daemon (i.e. they can survive far apart without pain), which is an ability normally only open to witches, but more generally she also seems to have a more fractious relationship with her daemon than other characters.
Is Mrs Coulter a witch?
One explanation that some fans have turned to in trying to make sense of Mrs Coulter is that she is actually a witch – that would certainly explain her ability to separate from her daemon, if nothing else.
What is Lyra's final daemon?
At the end of the trilogy, as Lyra is entering adulthood, Pantalaimon finds his final form when Will Parry touches him, and is later described as a beautiful pine marten, red-gold in colour with a "patch of cream-white fur" on his throat.
Does Lyra fall in love with Malcolm?
Yes, thirty-one year old Malcolm falls in love with Lyra. In the story itself she's twenty and not Malcolm's student, but Malcolm's narration rather disturbingly implies that he first fell for her four years prior, when he was her tutor and she was only sixteen.
Why did iorek eat Lee Scoresby?
Iorek Byrnison
Lee meets Iorek for the first time Iorek and Lee first met in Novy Odense sharing a common enemy. They bonded afterwards, a friendship that would last until Lee died in battle. As a sign of friendship and respect, Iorek was the one who devoured the remains of Lee's body meaning the two would be together.
Who does Lyra betray?
Lyra and the gyptians successfully rescue Roger from Bolvangar at the end of Part 2, but ultimately Roger will become a character of sacrifice and a symbol of Lyra's (accidental) betrayal. Though Lyra's goal is to save Roger, she ends up getting him killed when she brings him along to see Lord Asriel.
What is Mrs Coulter's daemon?
Mrs Coulter's dæmon takes the form of a golden monkey with long fur, who is not named in the books, but was given the name "Ozymandias" in the radio adaptation. The golden monkey is shown to be capable of going much further from Mrs Coulter than other dæmons are able to separate from their humans.
Why is Lyra called silvertongue?
Trivia. Lyra got her name Silvertongue from Iorek Byrnison because she was the first human to outsmart a panserbjorne. In a dispute with her father Lord Asriel, she tells him that he should no longer call her Lyra Belacqua, but Lyra Silvertongue, because this name is from a person who really loves her.
