Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III is the heir of the Viking chiefdom on the island of Berk, where fighting dragons is a way of life. His father, Stoick the Vast, leads the Vikings on their quest of finding the nest of dragons.

His father knows that his son is not a strong boy for Hiccup can’t even lift a hammer and can’t swing an ax. Until one day, he have captured the Night Fury, the fiercest breed among the dragons. He hold his knife with his two hands while the Night Fury look at him. He look at his eyes and felt sorry for what he did. He untied the rope.
Hiccup visits the place where the Night Fury is. And he notice that the dragon is missing half his tail that’s why he can’t fly and can’t even get food. (The night before he found the dragon, while he was wielding a catapult slingshot, without knowing, he ham-handedly slices off half a dragon’s tail.)
