Saphira I was the female dragon of Brom. It is said that she too, like Saphira II, was blue.

[edit] History

When Brom turned ten, he was presented to the eggs that the Dragons had given to the Riders. An aquamarine egg hatched for him, and he named her Saphira (I).

[edit] Training

Saphira I trained along with Morzan's dragon, being taught by Glaedr and Oromis. She and Brom bonded during those years of training, and became each others' only family, as Brom never saw his family.

[edit] The Fall

Saphira fought during the Dragon War. Unfortunately, she was slain by the Forsworn almost certainly by Morzan and his dragon while protecting Brom, causing him much grief. To avenge her death, Brom searched for and found Morzan. He slew Morzan with his own sword, Zar'roc, and then stole the sword, likely because his sword, Undbitr, was lost when Saphira died. Another possibility being spite because it is far worse to kill a man with his own sword rather than your own. It is quite possible that Galbatorix extracted her Eldunari before destroying her body.

She is Saphira II's namesake. While looking for a name for her, Eragon asked Brom for a list of dragon names. Eragon then gave the list of dragon names to his yet-to-be-named dragon. She chose Saphira.
