Eragon (Shadeslayer)
- Race: Human (later partially elf-like due to the Blood-Oath Celebration)
- Role: The protagonist; the last free Dragon Rider.
- Key Facts: A poor farm boy who finds a dragon egg. Named leader of the Varden. Killed Durza (earning “Shadeslayer”). His true name evolves from “boy seeking adventure” to “leader seeking peace.” He leaves Alagaësia at the end of Inheritance to train a new generation of Riders.
The Power of Names and Language
Magic in Alagaësia is governed by the "Ancient Language." To know the true name of a thing is to have power over it. This emphasizes the importance of truth and specificity. Eragon’s own name is significant, as he is named after the very first Rider.
Murtagh
- Race: Human
- Role: Anti-hero / Reluctant villain.
- Key Facts: Son of Morzan (the traitor) and Selena (Eragon’s mother, making him Eragon’s half-brother). He saves Eragon and Arya but is later captured by Galbatorix and forced to bond with a red dragon, Thorn. He is a tragic figure, eventually breaking free and earning his freedom by the end of Inheritance.
