Arkady Darell is a female character from Isaac Asimov's Second Foundation. Born Arcadia Darell, Arkady is the granddaughter of Bayta Darell. She is a novelist who predominately writes romance novels but is also the author of a biography of her grandmother.

In Second Foundation, Arkady sneaks aboard the ship of Homir Munn, thus putting herself in the First Foundation’s search for the Second Foundation. While Arkady has adventures in space through the story, the end of the novel reveals that she has been an unwitting pawn of the Second Foundation, which robs her of her autonomy.
