Eragon I was an elf being the first Dragon Rider. He united the dragons and the elves by being united with Bid'Daum and ended Du Fyrn Skulblaka. He was, as far as history knows, the very first Dragon Rider.
[edit] History
After the elves arrived to Alagaësia, a young elf attacked and killed a dragon. This resulted in the dragons killing the elf, but the that did not satisfy the dragons fury. They attacked the whole Elven nation. During this time, a dragon egg was left alone, for an unknown reason, although there are suspicions that either the dragons parents had been killed or that the egg purposely had been left there. An elf, named Eragon, found the egg, and when the Dragon hatched, he took care of it. Once the dragon, who he named Bid'Daum, grew large enough, they traveled across the land, making peace between both races, and finally, ending the war. After the war, Eragon and Bid'Daum formed the Dragon Riders though their ultimate fates are unknown. It is known that Eragon once sat for dwarf artisans in Celbedeil, where many years later, his namesake, Eragon Bromsson, was able to see his likeness.
[edit] Name
It is said in Book I that the name Eragon carries power and that it is rarely given. While it is not known why this is so, the most likely reason would be simply that it was the name of the first Dragon Rider, a significant person in the history of Alagaësia. If that is so, then presumably in the time of the first Eragon the name was quite ordinary and common.
It is also possible, however, that the name carries some other meaning as well, perhaps connected to the Ancient Language and that it was just as rare and powerful in the time of the Dragon War.
