Arya:

WARNING: Contains possible spoilers!

Arya is first introduced in the Inheritance trilogy as the egg courier for the Varden and the Elves. On one journey, Arya is ambushed by the shade Durza and attempts to send the egg to Brom in Carvahall. She misses and the egg ends up in the Spine, where it is found by Eragon.

Throughout his journey, Eragon sees visions of Arya in his sleep and is eventually imprisoned with her in Gil'ead. With the help of his friend Murtagh, Eragon escapes from the prison, rescuing Arya in the process. Unfortunately, Arya seems to be in a coma. After they cross the Hadarac desert, Eragon tries to enter Arya's mind. When he finally convinces her that he means her no harm, she tells him what ails her and how she can be saved. Eragon now knows that she has been poisoned with Skilna Bragh. While in her self-induced coma, the poison acts more slowly, but if Eragon and Murtagh do not reach the Varden and give her the antidote soon, she will die. Fortunately, they reach the Varden in time and Tunivor's Nectar is administered to Arya. Once recovered, Arya plays a key role in helping Eragon to defeat the shade Durza.

Eragon falls in love with Arya, but she advises him to forget his infatuation with her, as she cannot reciprocate his feelings and they would not make a suitable match. She seems to be fond of Eragon but only as a friend, and urges him focus on his duty to save Alagaësia. Arya fights in the Farthen Dűr and Burning Plains battles, and she is present when Eragon reveals the identity of his father and brother.

In Eldest, Arya is revealed to be the daughter of the Queen of the Elves, Islanzadí, making Arya a princess. Arya's family is one of the several royal houses, all living in Ellesméra, such as The House of Miolandra. The Dröttningu dynasty, however, has been in power for many centuries. One of the earliest Elven royals mentioned, Tarmunora, the Elven Queen who presided over the bonding of the Elves and Dragons, may have been of a different house. Her predecessor, King Ceranthor, led the Elves into battle against the Dragons. Tarmunora was succeeded by Dellanir, Arya's grandmother, implying that Tarmunora was a Dröttningu, however, she could have handed the throne to another royal house, as Elves sometimes do. Dellanir ruled for centuries before voluntarily abdicating in favor of her son, Evandar. Evandar then became King and married an Elf princess, Islanzadi, who gave birth to Arya. Evandar died at the hands of either Galbatorix or one of the Forsworn hundreds of years ago, and his queen has ruled since. It is unclear how many family members Arya has apart from her mother, but there is another Dröttningu royal of lower rank named Niduen, who is only mentioned in passing. Niduen sends a gift to Eragon when he arrives in Ellesméra but it is unclear how she is related to Arya.

Arya is portrayed by Sienna Guillory in the upcoming movie version of Eragon.
