Peter (Arthur Christmas)

Peter is a supporting character in Arthur Christmas.

He is an elf who serves as the assistant to Steve Claus. It is hinted in the film that Peter is homosexual and has feelings for Steve as he sends him three text messages complimenting him. Later in the film following a blackout at The North Pole, Steve is heard telling Peter to let go of his hand.

Like most of the elves, Peter originally saw Steve's younger brother Arthur as an outcast. However after Arthur manages to deliver the last present left to deliver and succeeds his father Malcolm as Santa Claus, Peter and the other elves come to respect him.
