Come! Taste the blood of your dragon!
~ Durza moving to kill Eragon and Saphira.

Durza is the main antagonist of Eragon. After Eragon discovers Saphira's egg, King Galbatorix orders him to retrieve it, and he takes it as his cue to develop an unhealthy yet mysterious obsession with killing the teenage farmer, ultimately leading to his own annihilation in Farthen Dur.

He is played by Robert Carlyle.

His Evil Ranking[]

What Makes Him Heinous?[]

  • He tries to steal Saphira's egg, and when Arya tells him he'll have to tell the king he has failed, he wordlessly chokes her and proceeds to capture her.
  • Becoming obsessed with killing Eragon, he sends the Ra'zac after him, leading to the death of his uncle.
  • As a Kick the Dog moment, he stabs an Urgal in the foot for no reason whatsoever.
  • He murders one of his own Urgals for failing him.
  • After mimicking Arya's voice to bait him, he tries to kill him with magically thrown melee weapons. This prompts Brom, his mentor, to sacrifice himself by leaping in the way of a thrown blade, which fatally impales the storyteller. Even though taking Brom's life was accidental, Durza did not care let alone feel remorseful for the manslaughter.
  • He sends the Urgals to try to wipe out Farthen Dur. He also conjures a black dragon and while taking flight, blasts apart a bridge with a dozen Varden situated there (which is mass murder).
  • In one final attempt to satiate his bizarre obsession with taking Eragon's life, he injures Saphira to the point of almost dying.
  • Unlike his novel counterpart, he has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.
  • Due to the film only adapting the first novel of the quadrilogy, most of the other villains never get adapted, letting Durza remain.

What Makes Him Inconsistent?[]

  • While his status as a scapegoat is broken and no indication of him resisting the dark spirits is ever given throughout the movie, he has no personal motives or personality, making Durza a Generic Doomsday Villain with only a small handful of screen time. His only development is obsessively seeking the hero's demise solely for its own sake.

Trivia[]

  • In the films, his tragic past and abusive treatment from dark spirits is omitted entirely. Furthermore, he is no scapegoat as his death happens when Eragon kills him in self-defense and his backstory receives no elaboration whatsoever like in the novel. Furthermore, there is absolutely no indication that he tried to resist the dark spirits' influence, serving King Galbatorix with a smile if such a generic villain was even capable of smiling. He literally has no motive besides blind loyalty for its own sake, so all in all, his film counterpart obviously counts like his novel version, but for different reasons.
    • If he had a clear motive and a personality, then theoretically he would be approved as Pure Evil.
