Characters of Peter Pan

Peter Pan is a boy who refuses to grow up. He can fly, and has an apparently unique connection to the magical realm of Neverland.

Captain James Hook  from PPs Neverlais a pirate, and Peter Pan's greatest adversary. He swears revenge on Peter for cutting off his hand and feeding it to a giant crocodile.

Skylights (Morgan's Skylights) Appears only briefly in the book, immediately being killed by Hook for accidentally bumping against him and ruffling his lace collar.

Fireflyer A silly blue fairy born out of a baby's first laugh in Peter Pan in Scarlet. Like most fairies he's conceited and self-centered, but he's a devoted friend to the lost boy Slightly.

Tootles  This is fine with the young female Tootles, who dreams of becoming a princess and a nurse; she would also love to marry Peter, and become Tootles Pan.

Tinker Bell is a fairy, and a companion to Peter Pan at the time of his adventures with Wendy Darling. Tink follows Peter but is very jealous of Wendy, and wants to get rid of her.

Tiger Lily is the princess of the Piccaninny Tribe of Indians (Native Americans) living on the island of Neverland. Tiger Lily is nearly killed by Captain Hook when she is seen boarding the Jolly Roger with a knife in her mouth, but Peter saves her. In the earlier versions of Peter Pan, it is assumed that she disapproves of Wendy and even Tinker Bell at one point because of her envy.

In the Disney version Tiger Lily is kidnapped by Captain Hook and Smee. Hook threatens to kill her if she does not tell him Peter's hiding place. She remains silent, as she does through the whole movie, refusing to betray Peter. She is saved by Peter and he takes her to her tribe. During the celebration of her return, Tiger Lily shows her affection towards Peter. At first, Peter watches Tiger Lily dance, then Tiger Lily jumps down and gives Peter a kiss. This turns Peter bright red. Then they dance together, which makes Wendy very jealous.

Molly Aster is one of the main characters of the three Starcatchers novels. She has striking green eyes and golden brown hair. She is the daughter of famous Starcatcher Leonard Aster and his wife, Louise Aster, and is therefore a Starcatcher by blood and very wealthy. She is very headstrong and stubborn. She constantly squabbles with friends and even her father, whom she respects and admires. She is also very brave and thoughtful, and seems to have a good grasp on her inherited Starcatcher powers. She wears a locket filled with Starstuff at all times.

She has a romantic attraction to both Peter and young George Darling. She and Peter catch each others' eye almost immediately after boarding the ship The Never Land in P&SC. But his decision to stay on Mollusk Island at the end of P&SC and the arrival of George in P&ST, combined with the fact that she is growing older while he is not, complicates her feelings for him. In P&SR, she and Peter have many arguments, though they part on good terms (with their mutual first kiss) and she makes him promise to visit her. Her feelings toward her childhood friend George grow warmer after she calls on him for help in P&ST. She responds to George's maturity compared to Peter, and treats him with greater respect.

Her relationships with Peter, George Darling, Tinker Bell, and the mermaids are all consistent with her being Wendy's mother, a conclusion hinted at but not confirmed by the authors.^[1] (It's confirmed in the forthcoming Peter and the Sword of Mercy ^[2].She is called "Molly" rather than "Mary", however "Molly" is a traditional nickname for girls named "Mary". ^[3]
