Ginarrbrik is a fictional character from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis. He went unnamed in the novel, but was named "Ginarrbrik" in the 2005 film version and played by Kiran Shah.
In the book, he was the White Witch's right-hand dwarf. He drove her sleigh and requested an audience with Aslan for her. She, apparently, thought him important enough to protect him from being captured by the party that rescued Edmund.
In the movie, Ginarrbrik plays a slightly more important role. He seems to have a great distaste in Edmund (and possibly all humans.) He carries a whip to drive the Witch's sleigh, and for use as a weapon. He also carries a knife and an axe. At the Stone Table, Ginarrbrik taunts Aslan by saying, "Do you want some milk?" This was a line for one of the hags in the book. While attempting to kill Edmund, Ginarrbrik is killed with one of Susan's arrows.
