Became a loyal companion to Hiccup after he helped Toothless regain his flight when giving him a prosthetic tail. His species is known as the "Night Fury" for its appearance and swift combat tactics. Night Furies such as Toothless have the ability to strike quickly and retreat to retaliate, but they are also adept in direct combat as well.
Trogdor	Trogdor	Trogdor the Burninator is an original character created by Strong Bad in the sbemail dragon.
Vlad, the Vampire Dragon	Dinofroz	Vlad is one of Neceron's generals. He appears to be an aged, veteran warrior and more skilled than the other generals, Gladius and Kobrax. He is Neceron's most appreciated general, but this won't prevent Neceron from stealing his powers in the last episode. He was once attacked by Gladius and Kobrax, who were jealous of him. They seriously wounded him, but he managed to stay alive. Vlad was also good friends with Treek, another dragon. However, Treek betrayed him and their friendship ended. But still, Vlad freed Treek when Neceron had captured him. He can minimize himself, and by biting his foe's neck, he can transform the unlucky victim into a vampire dragon, not an ordinary vampire. It is possible that he did not die at the end of the series, as he was not seen buried under the rocks like the other Generals, after the Rockfroz explosion. Vlad is not completely evil. He appears to be very loyal and sensible too. He reappears in the second season as Treek/Drakemon's general. Soon Vlad realized that Drakemon is becoming insane and eventually helps the Dinofroz to save the world; proving that Vlad was the true future spy that Drakemon feared for the whole season. His new appearance is more different than his wyvern-like body, he resembles more of a two-tailed European dragon with bat ears.
