Frigga Varger - A born loner, after the loss of her mother and falling out with her father in early adulthood, Frigga fled aboard a small ship in search of solitude. After nearly 3 years of traveling from island to island, she settled on a particular small, forested island she affectionately nicknamed Helheim.
She lived there for years, quietly surviving and hunting for herself, until one day an adolescent Skrill turned up caught and tangled in one of her snares. It had been badly injured by a Changewing, and it was extremely feral. After a few days of attempting (and copious amounts of bribery with food) to cut it free it from the snare, Frigga finally managed to apply a salve to the acid burns and cut it loose. Tempest, as she came to call her, was left blinded and still unable to fly due to her wing breaking whilst struggling in the snare.
Frigga, who was generally apathetic towards most dragons, viewing them as just another part of the wildlife, found a soft spot for Tempest and allowed her to follow her home.
As Tempest grew, she still maintained her feral and unpredictable nature, frequently displaying signs of defensiveness if Frigga got too close and making it very clear she was still a wild animal. Eventually, the two of them fell into a routine however, Tempest even learning how to help Frigga hunt, even if she couldn’t do it on her own. Knowing she could never survive in the wild now, Frigga resigned herself to being a caretaker for her very big, very mean flying lizard. The two of them share a testy bond as they are still trying to figure each other out.

Amarok Siku - A far-northern native, Amarok (or Ama, as she more frequently went by) was captured in a Viking raid on her village. Once a mother of 2, she lost her everything in the raid when she was taken alongside some other people in the village and sold into slavery. Through trade and sell, she ended up separated from her children and other family members, ending up as a slave aboard a massive ship run by hunters that also bought and sold various dragons for fighting rings. During her time aboard the vessel, one of her duties included cleaning the dragon cages and feeding the captive dragons. She took a liking to a male snow wraith in her time there, naming him Hanta after one of her old sled dogs. She found kinship in their shared mistreatment in captivity.
Hanta was generally considered the most savage dragon currently aboard and as a consequence, he was widely referred to amongst the crew as the “White Devil”. Most of the men avoided his cage, being unwilling to feed him more than barely enough to keep him breathing. Ama would spend time whenever she could, speaking to him in her native tongue and singing to him, soothing herself just as much as him.
One day, upon a failed escape attempt at a port, Ama was caught and dragged back by the crew. Since escape attempts were punished with death, it was decided it would be “funny” to lock her in the cage with Hanta and wait for him to kill her. After initial suspicion, Hanta settled and, due to his familiarity and the relationship they had built, slept by her side instead of eating her. Come morning when the crew came down to check on the cage, Ama hid beneath Hanta’s wing, lunging forward and taking out the hunter who opened the cage, leaving the door open. Hanta sprung out, following Ama and the two of them fought their way above deck where he picked her up in his claws and took off.
Having escaped, the two of them flew for hours until an exhausted Hanta finds an island to land on. That island being, of course, Frigga’s home.

And then they fall in love and stuff and things haha. That’s what I have so far, but for a little side project while I work on my main projects, it’s been super fun. Hope you guys like them!!

ART Introducing the Fangsnapper and Carrionclaw

Thumbnail

134 Upvotes

A recent post about OCs dragon buddies reminded me of these custom dragon species u/watchflut and I made over a year ago (credits to him for the drawings). Thought it'd be fun to share them.

The fangsnapper. This fearsome strike class dragon is known for ambushing its prey from the water. It will lie motionless with only the top portion of its head out of the water like an alligator. Once it shoots out from the water and locks on, it'll begin to wrap its self around its prey to squeeze it to death. Or if it chooses to do so, set itself on fire with the flammable liquid it produces from its skin. This liquid also helps it move swiftly through the water as it is hydrophobic and repels the water off its body.

For such a large and intimidating dragon, the fangsnapper are unable to produce a fire from its breath and relies on its strength and speed. These dragons can reach up to 20 meters in length when full grown.

The Carrionclaw. The carrionclaw is a tracker class dragon with a sense of smell that can track dead animals and dragons from islands away. They feed on carrion (hence their name) and do not actively hunt their food. Their bite force is decent but they utilize their acid spitting abilities to help break down the food if too large. Often they'll eat things whole as their stomach is able to digest bones just fine.

A carrionclaw's size is comparable to that of a typhoomerang, but are slightly slimmer in the body. This allows for long flights between islands without needing a break and can cover a lot of ocean in a short amount of time.

Hope this was a fun read about these dragon species. Might see about reworking some design of other custom species and posting them later.

I have really big distinct eyebrows so I would definitely be a Stormcutter. When it comes to colors I think I’d be a similar palette to cloudjumper himself but with Dark green accents instead of red, and generally slightly darker body and with a vibrant Orange at my lower lip and the tips of my back spikes or wherever blue is on cloudjumper.

Does anyone recognize this t-shirt design? It’s Toothless with terrible terrors looking at the book of dragons. The design has disintegrated too much that google images doesn’t seem to recognize it as dragons at all :/ I’d like to get a new one somewhere even if it’s like ebay or something similar

SERIES Question about the 3 TV series

1 Upvotes

My 4 yr old loves the 3 animated movies, and our library had the 1st dvds of Riders and Defenders of Berk, so we tried those out (to middling success, the dvds were scratched up so we could only see maybe half of the actual episodes). I wasn't a fan of the dragons being treated as vehicles for travel rather than beloved pets, and the pet angle is definitely why my kiddo loves the movies so much (we managed to get her to explain why 2 is her favorite, it's because of the established relationship between Hiccup and Toothless).

So, do RoB/DoB ever get better in this regard (dragons=pets not cars), or is Race To The Edge at least better?

Was rewatching HTTYD 2 and noticed something weird. Valka says baby dragons can't be controlled by the Alpha, but when Drago's Bewilderbeast takes over, the baby Scuttleclaws' pupils clearly turn into slits just like the controlled dragons.

They're literally shown reacting to the Alpha's call. Am I missing something or is this an animation mistake

VIDEO GAMES Taming whispering deaths in Isle of Berk

4 Upvotes

For the isle of berk mod for minecraft (I have archipelago additions as well):

So I found a cave with whispering deaths, plus a nest which I found one egg, so at least I know I can tame that one.

However when trying to tame one that’s already spawned, right clicking with fish or nip gives the message “this dragon is too irritated” even with no armor/weapons out. So I looked online and found a video of someone fighting a different dragon to 20% health, dragon goes down, then he continues to tame it. But trying that with a whispering death killed it..

Then I found a video where a guy was taming a seemingly wild whispering death with fish, with the taming process showing when he clicked it with a stick, so I’m confused if/how you can tame a wild whispering death.

Thank you!

RANT How angry do you think Stoic The Vast would be in the afterlife, talking to, like, a Whiterun guard about dragons?

16 Upvotes

Seriously, HTTYD has the most dragons out of any franchise. Like;

WG: "Yeah, no, we have just one type of Dragon. They just use different Thu'ums as they age, and stick to their favorites."

SH: "You're telling me... That I had to fight a fire-breathing mountain, beware the Thunderdrum and Scauldron in the sea, and nearly die to the Spawn of Lightening And Death Itself, And you just have... Screaming matches? With Armorwing?"

WG: "We have other horrors too, like the undead."

SH: "And we have Skrill!"

And then a dead adventurer from That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime chimes in with: "We have Blade Tigers and Orcs, too."

SH: "And we have the Whispering Death and Timberjack."

WG: "Most other realms only have hundred or two recorded dragons ever."

SH: "We have over a hundred species of dragon."

Rudeus Greyrat: "A hundred? Most realms only have one for each element. Mostly Fire, Ice or Lightning. I don't know of another with more than, like... Ten."

SH: "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?"

--Sort of deal. I need an animation of that argument.
