Will lives in Winchester with his mother and their cat Moxie. Will is unable to remember his father, a former Royal Marine, who has not been heard of since he vanished on an expedition to the Arctic when Will was only a baby, and who we later learn has wandered into another world and is unable to find his way back. Will is the only son of the explorer John Parry and Elaine Parry, a woman who suffers from mental health problems, and whom he has taken care of since he was young, due to her condition. He takes possession of the Subtle Knife which he uses to aid Lord Asriel in his bid to destroy the Authority. Introduced as a 12-year-old boy, he meets and befriends Lyra in the world of CittĂ gazze and teams up with her in order to uncover the mysteries of Dust and the disappearance of his father many years previously. He first appears in the series at the start of the second novel, The Subtle Knife, and continues through to the final book, The Amber Spyglass. Will Parry is one of the protagonists in Philip Pullman's trilogy His Dark Materials, along with Lyra Belacqua.
