Characters

Eragon- Eragon is a 16 year old boy who grew up on a farm in Carvahall. He lives with his uncle Garrow and his cousin Roran. His mother died when he was very young and nobody knows anything about his father. Eragon is adventurous and tends to question Brom's authority numerous times. He is a very quick learner but is also very stubborn at times. He shares a mental and emotional link (sometimes physical) with his dragon Saphira.

Saphira- Saphira is a dragon who hatched from her egg when Eragon found it. Dragons won't hatch until they found the right person, which for Saphira is Eragon. She is the last dragon in Alagaesia. Saphira is kind to others and is very protective of Eragon, which is to be expected of dragons. Dragons will protect their Rider at all costs because if the Rider dies than the dragon dies.

Brom- Brom is the storyteller of Carvahall. He is quick-witted and can tell many things just by looking at someone. He watches over Eragon as he tells him many things about dragons. He trains Eragon to be a Dragon Rider as they track down the Ra'zac, the mysterious creatures who killed his uncle.

Murtagh- Murtagh is the son of Morzan, one of the Forswarn. He meets Eragon and Saphira when they are attacked by the Ra'zac. He helps fight in the battle against Galbatorix.

Galbatorix- Galbatorix is the so called King of Alagaesia but actually assumed that position by ending the reign of the dragon riders and forcing the elves back into DuWeldenvarden. He has possesion of the only dragon eggs in Alagaesia. The future of the Dragons is in his hands.

Arya- Arya is an elf who is found by Eragon in Uru-baen while he is being held prisoner. He has seen her before in his dreams and wants to know more about her.
