Quick Synopsis

Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, the reserved son of a Viking chief, is expected to prove himself by killing a dragon as part of his coming-of-age ritual. However, after managing to bring down a feared dragon, he discovers that he does not want to kill it. Instead, he forms an unexpected friendship with the dragon, whom he names Toothless, which causes tension with his father, who values traditional warrior skills.

Detailed Synopsis of How to Train Your Dragon

As the son of a Viking leader on the cusp of manhood, shy Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III faces a rite of passage: he must kill a dragon to prove his warrior mettle. But after downing a feared dragon, he realizes that he no longer wants to destroy it, and instead befriends the beast – which he names Toothless – much to the chagrin of his warrior father.
