History WMG / DragonsRidersOfBerk

Possibly in an EnemyMine situation as they both end up fighting against Viggo and his dragon trappers. Averting war against Mala and her Wing will further solidify Hiccup's faith in the power of diplomacy, which will be tested when he encounters Draco and discovers that some people cannot be reasoned with.

The line "I don't want to conquer the world, unlike some" seems to strongly imply that Viggo is at least aware of Drago's existence, and him setting up a dragon trade could well be his way of ensuring that he and his brother have a place in Drago's new world, making Drago the BiggerBad of Race to the Edge.

Raiding shipping has been in existence since the inception of naval travel, and since both Viggo kept Berk's gold and was a declared enemy of the Hooligan Tribe, there's no reason why some of the raids wouldn't also include nabbing any gold that Viggo's men had, either from selling their dragon products or to buy supplies with. And even if the Dragon Riders couldn't carry it, there's no reason why Berk couldn't send ships to attack under cover of the Riders to hit Viggo's convoys. So with Berk harassing all of his shipments both to disrupt his efforts and to recover the gold he stole, Viggo may actually have realized that he couldn't protect against the Riders forever and thus the truce offer. This would also help explain why it had not come up - Vikings simply went aviking.

Need something to explain Vigo's accent. The Berk Vikings must have spent years in Scotland for their accents to be affected with the American accent representing the unaffected the original Norse accent.

[[WMG: Heather was given to her foster family by her parents to protect her from her brother [[spoiler: Dagur]].]]

Considering who her brother is and the fact that she had probably been with her foster parents long before her real parents died, it makes sense.

The duo have plenty of ShipTease, but that's mostly it.

* Jossed

* Confirmed. Season 3 happens still between 1 and 2, but it does feature a 3 year TimeSkip, and several call forwards in the series that points towards what will come.

* Still technically possible. TheCloneWars had an age-up for Ahsoka with no ceremony, though they could at least hide it by having her not be in a few episodes.

Either way it is unlikely that the Riders of Berk continuity will move beyond the second film, as much due to budget constraints and to prevent cannon discontinuity between the films, which hold creative control, and the show (seeing as Alvin is not even mentioned once in the films). So season 3 will most likely focus on tying up all the B-conflicts, such as Alvin, as well as introducing new dragons who make appearances in the second film, alongside other important discoveries like the Tracker Class of Dragon. With this in mind it is also possible that any additional Seasons will be part a new working title under the Dragons Franchise, in order to distinguish itself as taking place between the events of the second and third films. Which will feature entirely new villains, story arcs, and even more new dragons.

[[WMG: Thornado will eventually return to Berk to be with Stoic after the thunderdrum hatchlings are old enough to fend for themselves.]]

* Even if Dagur's forces are called the Berserker Tribe, that does not mean that others cannot be berserkers. After all, Berk is home to the Hooligan Tribe and I think you can call some of Alvin's minions hooligans. Fishlegs can still become the mainland Norse definition even if he does not join the Berserker tribe. But to be clear, as this WMG's author, I am referring to the Old Norse Berserker (see here [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berserker]] ). Plus, if they want to introduce 'friendly' Berserker characters (given the hints dropped about Dagur killing his own father, it's certainly possible), having one train Fishlegs in their ways if they notice the 'true berserker' tendencies could be an interesting subplot and be a nice way to tie back to the books as a MythologyGag that fans of both will notice.

** It works for Hiccup's teenage nemesis to have a dragon with similarities to Toothless : rare, fast, both of the Strike Class of dragons, both with a one-of-a-kind blast attack. Plus, just like Hiccup has a stylized Night Fury on his shield, the Berserker Tribe's crest feature a stylized Skrill, and Dagur wears it on his belt-buckle.

[[WMG: Alvin and Stoic are brothers]]

[[WMG: The reason the vikings don't wear as much fur in the series is...]]
* Because it's summer! In the movie we see that the vikings are preparing for winter but in the series time has passed. The reason the residents of berk aren't wearing as much fur as they did in the movie is simply because the series is set in either spring or summer, to warm to be wearing fur. Also it doesn't hurt that less fur means easier animation...

[[WMG: Alvin never existed until gobber made him up on the spot and his mind made him real.]]
Alvin is never mentioned before to anyone. Gobber lists him as a 'bad thing to happen' and suddenly a terrible reoccuring enemy is born.
Gobber has long-forgotten world-changing abilities.

So season 3 will most likely focus on tying up all the B-conflicts and threats such as Alvin, as well as introducing dragons who make appearances in the second film. It is also possible that any additional Seasons will be part a new title under the Dragons Franchise, in order to distinguish itself as taking place between the events of the second and third films. Which will feature entirely new villains, and you guessed it. Even more new dragons.

With the 2015 airdate, it is very likely that the third season will instead be focusing on the time in-between the second and third movies, building up on plot points and character development from the second movie.

[[WMG: The twins aren't as stupid as they act]]
While they seem to genuinely enjoy violence, pain, property damage, and explosions, and have Leeroy Jenkins tendancies, they are still competent dragon trainers and vikings. My guess is that they like the rractions they get from playing dumb. On top of that, they know each other so well that they can keep their tag-team improv comedy show going all day. This could explain their incredibly high number of Crowning Moment of Funny entries, as well as their constantly changing amount of apparent intelligence.

* ''Frozen'' took place in the early 1800s and DOB is set in 1013. You don't freeze backward in time.

He DID stab a picture of a Night Fury. He might want to kill Toothless in a "you took my thing, I'll take yours" kind of deal. Well, the best way to get an enemy is through their heart.....

** Confirmed.
