* CompleteMonster: Drago Bludvist is an unfeeling madman who seeks to take over Berk. Having lost his village and home to dragons when he was younger, Drago subverts a FreudianExcuse by becoming exactly like the ones who he sought revenge against and using fear to dominate anyone in his path. Prior to the plot, Drago came to a chieftain's meeting and offered to drive away the dragons if they would kneel to him. When they declined, [[DisproportionateRetribution Drago responds by burning them alive]] and leaving no survivors but Stoick, Hiccup's father. In the current, Drago raises a dragon army, led by a Bewilderbeast he abused into loyalty, and attempts to execute his right hand man for failing him, as well as the other dragon riders he brought with him. Drago enslaves the dragons living under Valka's care and kills their Alpha to assert his power. Drago even hypnotizes the loyal Toothless to fire on his own master, Hiccup, and simply scoffs when his father takes the blast. He then proceeds to raze Berk with his newfound army, taking no prisoners. Power hungry beyond salvation, Drago ended up putting even the [[WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragon first movie's]] BigBad to shame.

* CompleteMonster: Drago. A cruel madman that even Stoic feared. He managed to gain control of a massive dragon by torturing it since birth and then used it to gain control of any dragon he captured so he could amass an army to take over the world. After killing Valka's Bewilderbeast, he brainwashes Toothless and commands it to fire a plasma blast at Hiccup, forcing Stoik to push him out of the way which kills him instead. He then tries to raze Berk to the ground. He's so awful that he manages to make the Red Death, a dragon who used similar intimidation tactics in the previous movie, look mild by comparison.

Your Mileage May Vary

* UnfortunateImplications: The entire cast of voice actors for Berk are all white. The voice actor for Drago Bludvist? Djimon Honsou, an African man. The animators did not go so far as to make Drago a black man, but he was coded as such: black dreadlocks, savage mien, hateful and destructive FreudianExcuse, and ''visibly colored darker'' than every other character in the film.
