Description

The Berserker ships are a form of Viking longship. They all are adorned with a wooden dragon figurehead and dragon tail at the stern, painted with blue. They appear to be single-deck and single mast ships as is characteristic of a longship. The square sail is white with a stylized image of a Skrill on it. Most ships are lined with spiky shields. In some instances, the lead vessel that the chief sails in has the Skrill emblem, while the other ships have a plain sail.

In the game, School of Dragons, the Berserker ship is equipped with crossbows directly mounted to she ship, and two cannonball catapults.

While Bucket and Mulch thought the Berserker crew was in need of aid, in actuality they had discovered their Tribe's symbolic dragon: the Skrill.

More Berserker ships are seen, in conjunction with Outcast ships, in the episode, "A View to a Skrill, Part 2", after Alvin the Treacherous appears to die at sea and Dagur the Deranged takes over control of Outcast Island.

The ships will fire cannonballs and arrows to damage players. Touching the ships will send players to designated recovery areas. Prizes are awarded if the players are successful sinking the invading ship.

Dragons: Rise of Berk

There is a searcheable location to find Dragon eggs in the game, Dragons: Rise of Berk called Dagur's Ship. As Dagur is the current chief of the Berserker Tribe, it follows suit that his personal ship is a Berserker Ship.
