What IS the Deplorable Word?....

From: TPK (Wed May 4 20:26:58 2005)
I've thought long and hard about this, and I've decided the deplorable word is "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious."

Even the sound of it is something quite atrocious, no?

Ha ha! Atrocious, indeed! And I'm pretty sure that's a good bet about what the DW actually is.

I'll risk sounding dumb, cuz I gotta know, who is She? Is she also from Narnia? Well...anyway, she is beutiful, and absolutly determinded to do something Drastic! And I love the crown!
From: Administrator (admin) (Thu Jul 14 23:02:56 2005)
Yes, she is from Narnia, her character is explained in great detail in The Magician's Nephew (and also in The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe). And yes, she IS determined...

Aha! Excellent illustration. I especially love the detail of the long, creepy fingernails. You've done a good job of making her look beautiful and yet inherently evil.
P.S. What is the 'Deplorable Word'? I've forgotten!

It never actually says, in the books.

Her name is Jadis, and she was the queen of Charn. She destroyed this land and left with both Digory and Polly to London. She is also called the White Witch(The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe), and the Queen of Underworld(The Silver Chair).The Deplorable World is really a wood with many pools of water connecting to differnt worlds.

woooooooooow...*blinks*. Simply amazing...Queen Jadis in all her greatness! Oh, and wouldn't the wood with many pools of water connecting to different worlds be the Wood Between the Worlds, and the Deplorable World be the city of Charn, once destroyed?

Actually, I think we're discussing the Deplorable WORD, not the Deplorable World (I'm unfamiliar with the term Deplorable World, it could be because it's been a while since I read TMN).
From: MioneBookworm (Tue Jan 17 14:06:44 2006)
oh, sorry. I dunno I just read world instead of world...I should get some glasses.

It's the Deplorable Word, AG, you're right. Charn is simply the world Jadis came from - there's no "Deplorable World."

I LOVE this drawing - it's just how I pictured her.
From: MioneBookworm (Fri Mar 24 23:43:44 2006)
OH GOD. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. I PUT THE 'DEPLORABLE WORLD' AGAIN...

WHY AM I SO DETERMINED TO HAVE A DEPLORABLE WORLD INSTEAD OF A DEPLORABLE WORD?

anyway, no clue of what the deplorable WORD is, either...please don't kill me for making so many mistakes =(

No... Empress Jadis is NOT the queen of underworld, she was another of her kind. Excellent sketch! Showing Jadis as she is originally described by C.S. Lewis... seven feet tall, with long dark hair... not at all like the movie--I approve! Looks marvellous!

I love his It's Perfect=]
