context_page_description: The works of J. M. Barrie about Peter Pan feature many characters. The numerous adaptations and sequels to those stories feature many of the same characters, and introduce new ones. Most of these strive for continuity with Barrie's work, developing a fairly consistent cast of characters living in Neverland and the real-world settings of Barrie's stories.
context_section_description: Great Big Little Panther: the Chief of the Piccaninny tribe and the father of Tiger Lily.
  Tiger Lily: the chief's daughter, often described as a princess (in her own right), who is captured by the Pirates and left to drown on Marooners' Rock before being rescued by Peter Pan.
  Crocodile (Tick-Tock in Disney's movie): the crocodile is Hook's other nemesis and the only thing which he fears. It ate Hook's hand when Peter cut it from him in battle and craves for the rest of him. The clock swallowed by the crocodile warns Hook of its proximity.  In Peter and Wendy, the crocodile is briefly referred to by the feminine pronoun "she", a point overlooked in subsequent adaptations.
  Mermaids are half woman and half fish; they live in the sea but are often seen in the Mermaids' Lagoon in Neverland. They're vain, unfriendly and care for their looks and good appearance. They can be dangerous creatures (especially at night) who dislike all humans (except Peter Pan) and act very spitefully towards Wendy.
