Powers —

Skills: Blacksmithing, leatherworking, woodworking, engineering, inventing, and dragonriding,
Superpowers:

Toothless has the abilities of

• Flight
• Strength, though not beyond what an animal his size would reasonably be expected to have
• Breathing explosive balls of plasma powerful enough to blow holes in metal cages and blow up wooden emplacements.
• Excellent hearing and sense of smell
• Superhuman speed while in flight
• Being fireproof on the outside

Furthermore, in the future he will display the powers of

• Secondary spines that increase maneuverability
• An alpha mode, which allows for increased firepower
• The ability to cloak himself, effectively turning invisible

The latter powers will likely not show up in game, as it took certain knowledge or circumstances to activate them.

Hiccup has the power of superhuman accuracy. Any projectile thrown by Hiccup or launched by some sort of weapon he's using will always hit it's target unless dodged by some form of superhuman power or it is otherwise blocked.

Limitations: Toothless can't fly without Hiccup. He is also not fireproof on the inside.

Personality —

Hiccup is something of an ex-outsider. He spent 15 years being seen as the village screw-up, by and large because he was functionally a Guile Hero trying to be a Boisterous Bruiser in a land of Boisterous Bruisers, and not being very good at it. The only really obvious similarity between he and his people were his massive stubbornness issues. It's gotten better since he tamed Toothless and he started acting like he was instead of how everyone expected to him to be. He's still seen as slightly odd, but this is more or less seen as a good thing, since his oddness is the very thing that allowed the current peace between Berk and Dragons to happen.

But, the first fifteen years still have a noticeable effect on his personality. Not exactly having been able to defend himself like a Viking, his usual first recourse is to use words as a weapon and defense measure, with sarcastic comments both used to mock and guard his emotions, both aimed at others and the occasional bit of self-deprecation. (For instance, in the latter case, the only time he ever brings up his missing foot is to make cracks about it.) That said, he is willing to get into an actual fight if necessary, tending towards doing crazy, dangerous, things in defense of a friend.

His stubbornness can be both positive and negative. While he's a little more willing to take opposing viewpoints into account than his father was, once he's absolutely convinced of something, very little can change his mind. This trait both led to the peace with dragons, and also will eventually lead to his father's death when Hiccup was convinced he could talk Drago into standing down despite everyone telling him otherwise.

He can be a bit closed off and something of a loner. He's been opening up a bit more recently, especially to Astrid, since the village's opinion of him changed. It's a work in progress, though, since he's a little afraid of what will happen if all that somehow gets taken away. That said, he enjoys his time alone, by himself or with Toothless. He tends towards being introspective, often putting down his thoughts on paper in either words or drawings. . He rarely gets truly angry, but messing with his people or harming the dragons of Berk is a good way to get on his bad side. He also tends towards trying to improve his combat ability with technology, though earlier attempts were prone to backfiring.

He can be a little prone to babbling when nervous, at times even providing a running commentary on whatever situation has him flustered or panicking. He rambles even when not nervous. but it noticeably increases when he does, although he usually tries to cover it up with a veneer of sarcasm.

Areas of Interest / Brainstorming:

Hiccup is very likely going to be interacting with the Asgardians on a pretty regular basis. How often does one get to interact with their gods on a personal level?

Other than that, I'm planning on having him join the Alliance, and earn some money on the side by doing commissions. Weapons built by a genuine Viking blacksmith should go for a lot of money.
