Anurin
an elf who was a leader of the Riders millennia before the events in Eragon. Although only mentioned once in the Inheritance books, Anurin played a highly significant role in the history of the Riders by convincing the elvish queen to allow humans into the Dragon Rider bond, which previously had only included elves and dragons. He was also responsible for moving the Riders to the island of Vroengard.

Arva
rides a dark green dragon and owns the dark green blade Támerlein. She is eventually killed by Kialandi.

Brom
an ex-Dragon Rider; his blue dragon, Saphira (whom Eragon unknowingly named his dragon after), was killed at the battle of Doru Araeba. Vowing vengeance, he led attacks against the Forsworn, of whom he killed three (including Morzan, his archenemy) and caused the deaths of five others. When the new dragon hatched, Brom took her Rider Eragon far from Carvahall and taught Eragon through the ways of the Dragon Riders. When captured by the Ra'zac, Brom sacrificed his life to save Eragon and Saphira. Before dying, he revealed to Eragon that he too was once a Dragon Rider, and gave him the sword, Zar'roc. It is later revealed in Brisingr that Brom is Eragon's father.

Galbatorix
a highly gifted Rider who was rendered mentally unstable after his dragon Jarnunvösk was killed. He later stole another dragon, killed the Riders who refused to serve him as well as the human king Angrenost, and has ruled for a century ever since. His new dragon, Shruikan, was stolen as a hatchling from a Rider in Ilirea and enslaved by unbreakable oaths and black magic.

Morzan
first of the thirteen Riders (called the 'Forsworn' or the 'Thirteen Servants') who allied with Galbatorix and killed the other Riders. He, as well as Brom, was once a student of Oromis. He is Murtagh's father, and is stated to be Eragon's father as well, though this is later told to be false.
played by -
Oromis
An elven Rider, the last of the old order still alive, except for Galbatorix. Oromis and his gold dragon Glaedr are disabled in different ways, and so they suffer great disadvantages in battle. Oromis was Morzan's and Brom's tutor, and hid himself during The Fall. Later, he and Glaedr became Eragon and Saphira's tutors. After Eragon's return they join the elves in their battle and die at the hands of Galbatorix, who was controlling Murtagh's body. Glaedr lives on, his soul preserved in his Eldunari or "heart of hearts".

Vrael
the last leader of the old order of Riders. He was the only one to have overpowered Galbatorix, but hesitated to kill him, allowing the younger Rider to escape. Vrael was subsequently killed when Galbatorix, during a later combat, slew his elder by beheading him.
