I Think that Eragon is a very introverted kid, because all he does is work on the farm all day then he finds this stone and a dragon hatches. Then he is able to hide the dragon in a hallowed out log in a place near his house. He then spends all his time with the eccentric story teller Brom who is about 70 years old.I think that his shyness and social awkwardness will create problems with himself and other people. This will probably affect him throught his journey or it might even change with more experience with more people in alot of towns.
