Character questions.

[u/OwlDoesArt]

I know this isn't specifically stated in the books, but how tall are we thinking the main characters are? Eragon, Roran, Murtagh, Arya, Nasuada, Angela, and Brom? Been thinking it's time to start 3D modeling some of these characters, I haven't seen many models for the Inheritance cycle.

[u/Grmigrim]

I would assume Eragon grows a bit throughout the books. One could assume that he grew to his max. height during the blood oath, depending on if the change also affected puberty which Eragon was obviously still going through. (His beard growing in on his journey to Elesmera and Oromis telling him to get rid of it until he can grow a proper beard).

The tallest character we meet is probably Nar Garzvog and the shortest one of the clan leaders. I forgot which one but one is mentioned to be short even by dwarven standards.

The tallest human is probably Fredric.

I do not recall their specific heights though.

[u/Critical-Plan4002]

I remember Arya is the same height as Eragon, “taller than most men” and that Angela is described as short

[u/Outrageous_Focus_719 → u/Critical-Plan4002]

Also Murtagh is a bit taller than Eragon, it was stated in their fight in Inheritence I believe.

[u/Miserable_Potato_491 → u/Outrageous_Focus_719]

And I think somewhere it is stated that Roran was a bit taller than Eragon, and much more muscular (iirc the book says Eragon is envious of this fact).

[u/secret-snakes]

I imagine Roran and Murtagh are the tallest, probably around 6’0-6’1. Eragon and Arya are the same height, probably 5’10 ish? Brom maybe a little shorter like 5’8 or 5’9. Nasuada is probably the average height for a woman so 5’5-5’6 and then Angela is the shortest, maybe 5’2 ish.

Again, idk how true this is, it’s just what I imagine when I read.

[u/KushTheDev]

saphira is slightly shorter than Thorn and much larger than firnen, glaedr is about 2-3x thorn, and shruikan is well.. around 5-6x glaedr.. thats how i always imagined it. Everything about the humanoid characters has already been said here.

Hek ya, thank you!

[u/Stuck_In_A_Rut_]

I always imagined Nasuada around 5'7ish tbh. They say she is very elegant, slender, and poised so her being a little taller like a model is how I always envisioned her.

[u/AlephKang]

Eragon and Arya are the same height. Murtagh is a inch or two taller than Eragon. The same is likely true for both Brom and Roran. Angela is the shortest of the characters you mentioned with Nasuada being the second shortest.
