The Allied Army consisted of several allies of the Varden fighting against King Galbatorix of the Broddring Empire. The Commander of the Allied Army was Lady Nasuada as Orrin, king of Surda, yielded leadership of the war effort to her. After Nasuada kidnapping in Inheritance, the army fell under the command of Eragon Shadeslayer, who Nasuada had chosen as her successor.
Members[]
The allies consisted of Varden Rebels, the race of Dwarves (excluding Dûrgrimst Az Sweldn rak Anhûin), much of the race of Urgals, the Surdans, the Wandering Tribes, surviving villagers of Carvahall and the race of werecats.
Though the elves joined the war towards the end of Brisingr, they served under the command of Queen Islanzadí instead of Lady Nasuada. The 136 Eldunarí of the Vault of Souls also became part of the Army, but this was after Nasuada's capture and served under the command of Umaroth, Eragon and Saphira.
