Eragon

==Summary==
Eragon Bromsson (named Shadeslayer after killing Durza) was the main protagonist in the Inheritance Cycle. He was the son of Brom and Selena. After the dragon Saphira hatched for him, Eragon became the first Dragon Rider to be born in a hundred years and was subsequently trained by Brom and later Oromis. After becoming an accomplished swordsman and magician in a relatively short time, the young Rider found himself championing the cause of the Varden, inheriting both the duties of the Dragon Riders' and his father's place as Galbatorix's foremost enemy.
Eragon was also the frequent traveling companion of the elven princess Arya, the Dwarven king Orik, the Lady Nasuada, as well as being the half-brother of the Dragon Rider Murtagh Morzansson and the cousin of the great warrior Roran Stronghammer. He was also named an Elf Friend and as a full member of Dûrgrimst Ingeitum, effectively binding him to more races than any other Rider in history.
After many bloody battles and much heartache, the Varden and their allies finally attacked Galbatorix at Urû'baen and Eragon fought his greatest enemy once and for all. After defeating Murtagh in single combat, having Murtagh betray the dark king directly afterward, Eragon fought Galbatorix head on and overpowered the ancient enemy of his order by casting an Empathy Spell on him. Feeling all the pain, suffering, and misery he had caused over the last hundred years Galbatorix was driven to commit suicide, destroying a part of his palace and nearly killing Eragon and his companions in the process.
Afterward, both Alagaësia and Eragon were finally allowed to live in peace and freedom.

Standard Equipment: Brisingr (His sword) and shield, bow and arrows, Aren (A ring which stores his energy), Jeweled belt of Beloth the Wise (He could draw upon Saphira's strength for added power), Glaedr's heart of hearts, Blue sapphire in the pommel of his new sword Brisingr (That could be used to store excess energy as well), Bag of Eldunari, Armor.
Intelligence: While a brave fighter, he was always asking questions, always seeking to learn more. It didn't seem to matter what it was, he always wanted to learn about anything. Eragon was a quick learner, becoming literate and an advanced swordsman in a very short period. However, he was often hasty, lightheaded, and impulsive though he improved upon the last two traits. He was also known to lose his temper and let his frustration get the better of him. In Inheritance, Eragon seemed wiser and more sure of himself. After discovering his True Name he understood himself and accepted who he was, which Arya noticed. This new wisdom was shown when he ensured future peace between all the races by adding Dwarves and Urgals to the Dragon Riders. He also made sure that the Urgals would no longer attack the other races for glory by creating games of strength in which young Urgals could compete against the other races.
Weaknesses: His magic is cast from physical life force, setting a clear limit on his magical attacks and defenses, which means that large use of magic drains his stamina fast and his level of power depends on his physical condition.
Feats:
*Killed the Shade Durza (Only four people in the history of Alagaësia have ever killed a Shade and lived, thus being granted the title "Shadeslayer.")
*Killed the last remaining Ra'zac, an ancient race of insect like monsters that fed on humans
*"Killed" Galbatorix by casting an empathy spell on him, which drove the king so mad, he ended up using a suicide spell
*Knocked out 12 Urgals (man-like beasts who are over 8 feet tall) with one word
*Easily stopped a flock of arrows with one word and deflected them into the ground
*Able to fire thirty arrows in a minute and stab twenty times a second with Brisingr
*Easily killed an armed soldier with one punch 
*Punched through a dwarf's shield with relative ease and sent the dwarf behind the shield into the opposite wall, killing him
*Outspared one of the best elven duelists in Du Weldenvarden and defeated Murtagh in a duel
*His ring Aren contains enough energy to tear down an entire castle
*Has 136 Eldunari, who possesses slightly more energy than Galbatorix suicide spell (which is comparable to a very powerful nuke)
*Created a spells on Sloan to make him walk to Du Weldenvarden from Helgrind (through a huge desert and across many miles), makes him walk all the way there without allowing him to change course or else an itch will start and grow, and allows animals to come and give him aid when he needs it
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
*Magic: Magic in Inheritance works by the principle that spells consume physical strength. Each spell consumes as much strength as it would need to achieve the task with conventional methods. To use the magic, one says what one wants to achieve in the ancient language, but alternatively one can also simply think what is supposed to happen and it will happen. Since the effects of magic are only limited by one's imagination and power it is a highly effective tool. Some of the ways people were killed using magic are by stopping the target's heart, breaking their neck and stopping the blood flow into the brain.
**Brisingr: Eragon infuses his weapons with fire, causing more damage. It can also be used to summon fire in any way he wants, like throwing fireballs or creating explosive arrows.
**Jierda: Typically used to break the bones or necks of an opponent, or throw them against a hard surface.
**Thrysta: Used to thrust or compress things. Eragon used it to stop a man's heart while escaping from Gil'ead
**Letta: This spell can stop things, like arrows in mid-air or completely immobilize beings
**Twelve Words of Death: Killing spells, that targets and stops critical parts of the opponent's body (vital arteries or nerves), effectively killing the target. Each of these methods does not use more physical power than lifting a feather. With the death words properly applied, a magician could bring down entire armies. But because they relied on striking the correct body part and used very little actual force, they were extremely easy to block: the simplest ward could stop a death word, with almost no energy cost to the defender.
**Protection spells (Wards): Eragon has a wide array of protection spells, which automatically activate to stop any damage, no matter whether from physical attack or magic. But by the laws of Magic, the spells should use up as much power to fend off an attack, as the initial attack had. The strength of wards is not affected by the amount of energy Eragon has left, as long as there is enough energy. Eragon's wards have been capable to protect him from fireball debris fired from a catapult, arrows, a javelin fired from a ballista, and Thorn's fire breath, which killed other soldiers in moments.
**Name of Names: The name of the ancient language. It enables him to detect and identify spells, which were made using the ancient language, and alter or nullify them. However, it does not apply to wordless spells and has no power over them.
**Teleportation spell: A spell that instantly moves an object from one place to another. The interesting thing about this spell is that neither the distance nor the number of things one wants to transport changes the energy required to use the spell. The spell shouldn't be used to transport living beings as it can severely damage them.
*Control over Eldunari: Gem-like stones that contain the soul of a dragon. Each of the dragons can drastically increase Eragon's telepathic abilities with its own and each of them contains slightly more energy than the dragon had when it was still alive. The energy an Eldunari spend can be recharged over time by absorbing sunlight. They can furthermore assist Eragon in a fight with their vast (magical) knowledge and wisdom. Eragon possesses 136 of them.
*Absorbing energy: Eragon can (forcefully) absorb energy from any living being (humans, plants, animals, microbes) he has telepathic contact with and can use this energy for spells. Draining someone from energy is also an effective method to kill them.
*Telepathic Attacks: Using his mental powers, Eragon was able to sense every living being within his range, read their thoughts and memories, send information over to them by telepathic means or take control of their body. He can either focus on just one or a certain group of entities or just hold contact to all beings in several kilometers range (for example in a whole city) at once. By breaching the mental shields (if even existing) of an opponent Eragon can furthermore torture them, drive someone insane, make someone speak an oath in the ancient language (which enables him to "program" someone with his will), or create illusions so real that they can cause physical effects on the target and affect surroundings as if they were reality.
