The Terrible Terrors are iguana-like and are inspired by Toothless' small dragon counterpart.

Powers and Abilities[]

Firepower: The Terrors have very strong fireattack. They are known to have the best accurate firebolts compared to most dragons, but not as compared as the Night Fury.

  • Strength and Combat: The Terrors are social creatures and are more powerful as a pack. THey could lift a fuully grown Viking, stole all of Bork's foods and defeated Snotlout in "The Night and the Fury." They can lift small light objects in the air, as demostrated by Iggy, Fishlegs' Terrible Terror.
  • Jaw Strength: They have quite sharp teeth, as they inflicted pain on Tuffnut when they were in the training arena. Snotlout mentioned that his Terror, Pain had bit so hard, that he even had to get the bite wound bandage.
  • Stealth: Terrors have shown to be quite fast and stealthy, as one stole all of Bucket's fish without him noticing, and the fact that Terrors often live secretly in Viking houses.
  • Singing: It has been revealed that Terrible Terrors have the ability to 'sing'. A 'singing' Terrible Terror also appeared in "Fright of Passage", where Snotlout had to deliver the Twins a singing Terrible Terror.
  • Speed and Agility: Terrors are shown to be quite an agile dragon to make great quick turns as shown by Iggy.
  • Intelligence: Terrors possess a high level of intelligence, as the trained Terrors from "Worst in Show" were able to learn new skills under one day.

History[]

How to Train Your Dragon[]

The first Terrible Terror to appear was one in the Arena, where one of the cute dragons attacks Tuffnut and bites him on the nose. However, Hiccup was distracting it by reflecting the light on the metal center in his shield.

After Hiccup and Toothless' flight, a pack of Terrors come to a small island and try to steal fish from Toothless.
