How To Train Your Dragon Characters

How to Train your Dragon, character

How to Train Your Dragon is one of those franchises with vibrant, fun characters that never get old. In this post, we’ll look at the characters from the media franchise, but only those from the films and the television series associated with Hiccup. This post will not include The Nine Realms series. There will also be a ton of characters missing.

The television series has many inconsistencies regarding the plot, but the overall gist of the story is somewhat close to the films. The television characters do not appear in the films, nor are they mentioned, unless you count Spitelout technically appearing in the first film in a silent cameo.
