the next rider has got 2 be arya bcos of eragons infatuation with her

i am undecided between roran and arya, but i voted arya. btw why are you so angry about eragons infatuation with arya?

I'm thinking Arya... although I won't be surprised if it isn't her.

A.K.A. I have no idea.

Roran seems a better candidate

im not i jus couldnt think of anything else to do

arya shall be the next rider
1)she is young for an elf
2)shes a master of fighting with both blade and magic
3)she uses green magic
4)eragon loves her

I have to agree with dragonmaster, it all fits.

i cant think of anymore reasons but it does fit

I hope it could be someone else... a new character. It would be much more interesting. ( but I guess he will make Arya the next rider)

A new character would make it interesting, if its not arya then i hope its a female elf. But i rather think arya should be the next rider.

Yeah, Arya could be good rider, but I don't know, I don't believe in it that much.

But the next rider should be definately female

I really have no idea who it will be, but I hope it will be a girl.
I really don't think it will be Arya

*shakes head*, do searches before starting topics...

i do not understand why you people think arya! why??? it makes absolutely no sense!!!

here's my scale:

I agree with Arya Svit kona, and it would be more fun if the next rider is a girl.

[/code]

its got to be a character from both books cos cp mentioned it in interview

I think the new one will be Roran...because Roran will be with Eragon if he finds the green egg...

thats the evil emoticon not the angry i think its roran for 3 reasons
1 hes mortal without a dragon
2 eragons blood
3 they go without arya to helgrind and that might be were they find it

Arya and Eragon are the ones that I would suspect the most. Eragons influence with Arya just makes him stronger....if Arya didn't say the things she says...

Heres a twist for you, what if CP made Roran's wife to be, Katrina the DR, and its Roran on the bank in agony of her leaving him? XD

Just because Eragon had a crush on her ads nothing to her being chosen as a rider.





May i ad that there are probobly many many other elves, most likely better than she is in fighting and magic.
Green magic? who came up with that. we have never found out the color of her magic and just because she has green magic means nothing. if she had yellow magic her magic color would change to the color of her dragon which you think will be the green one.

Okay
1) It says in the book that elves were presented to eggs at 20, Arya is 100!!!! (I agree there is a possible acception)
2)thedragonwing why in the world did you put Brom on the scale???
3) I also think it would be more interesting if the new rider was someone totally different

blood does not matter, so what if he's mortal, and it doesn't have to hatch for whoever finds it!

you've got a point there INC. just because eragon found the egg first didn't mean that was why saphira chose him.

ya, galby's servant or someone first found saphira, but saphira didnt hatch 4 them did she?

Totally agree with u

same

having a girl rider would be cool, but i think having arya a rider wouldnt help eragon if they connected minds and she found out everthing about her in eragons mind ( his obsession with her etc etc)





i like that idea. it makes sense the dragonriders leaving and roran and arya left behind plus nasuadia, jeod, islanzadi, orik, orrin, people like that, for some reason that makes me think of roran as king and having to deal with it without eragon, or it could have been the grey folk a long time ago[/quote]

i think Arya will be the next Dragon Rider!

go jeod for next dragon rider!

i think it might be roran.

I think it's Arya

I so think it is going to be Roran.

I really don't think anybody is going to be the next rider.

I partly agree with Dragonmaster. Arya is a good guess. I think it will either be her, Roran or Eragon's son if he ever lives and loves to have one. Because if you look back, Eragon's dad, Morzan ( ) had a dragon, then his eldest son had one, and now Eragon has one... Do you see the pattern?

i dont think the next rider will be any of those accept for maybe roran

i think the child eragon cursed with the shielding of people will be the next rider

That would be cool but its kind of unlikely.
isn't it? i mean when in the story would she be able to get the dragon egg?

I think its going to be Roran or katrina.

but its a good guess. :]

It's probably going to be Roran cuz Eragon already started teaching Roran magic, and who else would be with Eragon when he tries to infilitrate Urubaen? well, maybe Arya.....but probably Roran.

Ithink it should be arya or roran because they

1. will fight with eragon

2. there are the best two fighters in the book besides eragon

3. they are the most trustworhty people.

PLAIN AND SIMPLE

I think it's going to be Arya....i hope so...

but i voted by excident 4 Jode!

yeah, I think it will be either Roran or Arya, too. But if the 3rd egg does hatch, I don't think it will be until the end of the 4th book, because it really doesn't have a purpose in +he story

Eragon? He's a rider already...lol

but i agree abt the rest.....

oops, i meant roran. sorry bout that

i'm hoping Bladesinger

that's a possibility....but i really don't think so

it's possible but I just like the idea of this big shocker that nobody actually expected even if they though of it (i don't know if that makes sense but so lol)

yeah it makes sense. idk, i just think it should be someone we've known since the beginning of the books, not just met in the third

really i hope it isn't Arya or Roran because CP likes doing twists and it wouldn't be a big surprise. It should be someone like Nasuada or someone that no one would expect.

i really don't even think the egg will hatch until like the summary thing at the end of the book...because it really wouldn't play a big part being introduced in the last book, because how would the new rider train that quick (unless it was arya)

i hope not that would be terrible i want to hear about Arya shadeslayer and Argetlam being taught by Eragon Shadeslayer and Argetlam and silver hand

The next rider has to be Arya

Or maby Orik

i think it'd just be an awesome twist if the third egg was just destroyed completely

Orik can't be a rider because he's a dwarf and dwarves can't be riders.

it was never said that dwarfs can't be riders, just that a dwarf has never been a rider

but why Orik? he's already king. If it has to be a dwarf I don't think it should be him.

because orik's a main character that's why

roran will be the next rider because he's got the right personality. why would anyone say jeod?

seriously, why joed? Roran can't be the next rider, its already made clear that he is gona go home after the battle, and rebuild his farm.

yeah but it would be a great twist.

no Roran's kid!!!!

can you imagine that family struggle?


son (or daughter), you can't be a rider, you're a farmer!


or something weird like that.


if it hatches for roran's kid, it will definitely have to be in the epilogue, cuz the child'll have to be at least 15 before being mature enough not to die.

thats quite a good idea and it would be easier for c.p to just write the 1 more book that way then write 2 more to give time for the new dragon to grow and be useful.

still i don't see the egg getting anywhere near his kid unless cp wants to start a new series about a girl (assuming roran's child is a girl) randomly finding a stone in the forest that turns out to be a dragon egg (wow, i wonder where i'ev heard that before)

no it will be a gift from eragon

roran wouldn't let eragon near his child with that egg

you know gift are usally suprise so that won't matter on little bit

Roran might not want his kid to be a rider but its not his desion

@DuBrisingrEbrithil:still, why would eragon want his niece (persay) be put in danger by being a rider?

she would'nt be in danger if eragon has the egg because that implys the wars are over. also it might not even hatch

yeah, but there are still issues going on around alagaesia. that's what the riders were used for back in the day, all the little issues and stuff. and besides, how would eragon give her/him the egg if eragon is out of alagaesia for life

well if he's gone he will want to leave the protection of alagesia to some he trusts.

yeah, put not his barely-born cousin's child

so it roran then

roran would refuse. really it doesn't matter who the rider is, cuz it's probably gonna hatch in the epilogue, and then its the end of the story and it doesn't matter

or there will be a book 5 and the egg will grow up.

i hope not. its been too long in the making as it is

ya seriously, another book and CP will make everyone's head blow up.

Arya will be the next rider

my god you always need proof on here no ones aloud to say because they like something

supose but you have to rember people that have just come up with a theory get excited and forget to put in the probalys and i think.

next rider=nobody. lol i wish, but that probably won't happen.


but maybe like during the final battle, the egg falls over a cliff into the boar's eye (though why they would be fighting around there i don't know) and is lost forever

yeah, i've got like a billion theories floating around. lol

Sjlsscsdoo has a billion theories for everything, you just need to give him a reason to say them, though most invovle a lot of deyja.

lol yep, there's only one thing consistent about all my theories. and that's that eragon and arya don't end up together

i hope they do it would be funny to see what have to say then

i will probably be like:


well, i knew this was gonna happen, but it still sucks.

DEYJA!

what about rauthr its more suitable then deyja.

what does it mean?

rauthr is misfortune in AL

oh okay, i guess that makes sense

thank you i thought it was good

yeah, we need a cp tipline though. lol

yeah proberly

spam.


next rider=probably no one, cuz for reasons i've stated before
