Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III is the main protagonist of the DreamWorks animated How to Train Your Dragon franchise. He is the son of Valka and the late Hooligan chief, Stoick the Vast, thus making him the heir, and later, the chief of the tribe. He is 15 years old in the first film, Dragons: Riders of Berk and possibly 16 by the end of Dragons: Defenders of Berk, 18 to 20 years old in Dragons: Race to the Edge, 20 years old in How to Train Your Dragon 2, 21 years old in How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World, and 30 in the epilogue and Homecoming. His dragon and best friend, Toothless, is a Night Fury, the rarest and most intelligent of the dragon species.
By the end of the franchise, he marries Astrid Hofferson and they eventually have a daughter, Zephyr, and a son, Nuffink.
In the first film, Hiccup’s appearance is very similar to his book counterpart. He is rather scrawny for his age, compared to the other Vikings, and isn’t very tall, being around Astrid’s height. He initially has little physical strength, as he has difficulty lifting a large standard battle axe handed to him by his father. He has bell-shaped auburn hair parting to his right with freckles on his cheeks and dull, green eyes. One of his more unique traits is a small, white scar just below his bottom lip on the right side of his chin, which he received as a baby the night Cloudjumper took his mother away, to the nest of the Bewilderbeast.
In the first film, he is usually seen wearing a long-sleeve, light-green woolen tunic with brown leather lacing at the neck and arms, a dark brown fur vest that matches his boots and dark greyish-green pants with lacing at the ankle. When he’s working in the Blacksmith Shop, he removes his vest in favor of a beige smelting apron. When he rides Toothless, he takes off his vest and wears a leather flying harness that attaches to Toothless’ saddle. After Dragon Training, he starts to wear a Viking helmet given to him by his father made from half of his mother’s breastplate (Stoick owning and wearing the other half). Following the battle with the Red Death, Hiccup’s left leg up to his shin was replaced with a metal prosthetic, constructed with a spring system and an adapter stirrup for flying with Toothless. This event deepened the connection between Hiccup and Toothless, both of them now have a prosthetic left appendage.
