Dragon Classes

All the dragons known to the hairy hooligans tribe are grouped into one of the seven classes.

Stoker Class

Stoker Class dragons are hot-headed fire breathers. A notable characteristic of these dragons is their high shot limit and firepower. Some of them are capable of setting themselves, or a part of their body on fire. When Stoker Class dragons become sick or exhausted, they might loose their ability to produce flames. This state can be fatal, although a Fireworm Queen's venom or Firecomb can reignite their inner flame. The dragon species included are:

• Fire Terror
• Fireworm
• Hobblegrunt
• Monstrous Nightmare
• Night Terror
• Red Death
• Shadow Wing
• Singetail
• Terrible Terror
• Typhoomerang

Boulder Class

Boulder Class dragons are tough and associated with the earth. They can eat rocks, which many of them melt within their stomachs and regurgitate as lava blasts. Although they have small wings compared to their body size, they are able to fly as fast and as high as most other dragons can. According to Fishlegs in Rise of Berk, Boulder Class dragons aren't picky eaters. The dragon species included are:

• Catastrophic Quaken
• Crimson Goregutter
• Eruptodon
• Gronckle
• Hotburple
• Sentinel
• Shovelhelm
• Snafflefang
• Whispering Death (also Screaming Death variant)

Fear Class

Fear Class dragons are stealthy, sneaky, and often have multiple heads. The dragons of this class are the Hideous Zippleback, the Flightmare, and the Snaptrapper. This class was removed and replaced with the Tracker Class, as Vikings no longer feared dragons. The dragons that are in this class are:

• Flightmare
• Hideous Zippleback
• Snaptrapper

Sharp Class

Sharp Class dragons are vain and prideful, and all of them possess sharp body parts. Most of these dragons can fire extremely sharp and poisonous projectiles from their bodies, which can quickly be regenerated. Sharp class dragons adore being stroked and generally made a fuss of. They especially love being complimented, due to their nature. The dragon species included in this class are:

• Deadly Nadder
• Grim Gnasher
• Raincutter
• Razorwhip
• Scuttleclaw
• Speed Stinger
• Stormcutter
• Thornridge
• Timberjack

Tidal Class

Almost all Tidal Class dragons live in ocean, although some of them have amphibian biology allowing them to survive on land. Few of these dragons are cable of creating flames, but many can generate electricity. Dragons of this class are generally larger than those of other classes. Despite this, they are usually very peaceful ocean dwellers who prefer to be left alone and when trained, are exceedingly loyal. According to Hiccup, Tidal Class dragons don't react well to signs of aggression. The dragon species included are:

• Bewilderbeast
• Sand Wraith
• Scauldron
• Seashocker
• Shellfire
• Shockjaw
• Submaripper
• Thunderdrum

Mystery Class

This Class tends to include the most diverse and interesting range of dragons out of all, most of which exhibit extremely rare and unique traits. The dragon species included are:

• Skrill
• Snow Wraith

The Tracker Class is the newest class of dragons, discovered during the events of Race to the Edge. Natural born hunters, Tracker Class dragons have a highly acute sense of smell and taste that enables them to effortlessly track down and find anything. The dragon species included are:

• Rumblehorn
• Snifflehunch
• Submaripper

Trivia

• The Mystery Class may be a sort of "temporary" class, where dragons are put when little is known about them. Once they are more thoroughly understood, they would be moved to another class.
  • However, due to all of the Fear Class dragons being moved into the Mystery Class, this may no longer be true.
• It has been shown that the dragons are occasionally reclassified. All Fear Class dragons were moved into the Mystery Class. The Red Death used to be a Mystery Class dragon, until it was moved to the Stoker Class. The Snafflefang was also first considered a Stoker Class dragon, but was moved to the Boulder Class.
• The Deadly Nadder was a Sharp Class dragon until it was moved to the Tracker Class, due to its highly accurate sense of smell.
• With twenty known species, the Mystery Class is currently the largest Dragon Class.
• With nine known species in each class, the Tracker Class and the Strike Class are currently the smallest Dragon Classes.
• The Submaripper and the Hobgobbler are the only dragons confirmed to belong in two classes.
