Biography[]

Found by the Dragon Riders[]

The Dragon Riders come across Speedy after Hiccup failed in testing his flight suit. Due to his injury, Speedy becomes aggressive towards the group and paralyzes Ruffnut. However, he slowly warms up to them and accepts their help. The Dragon Riders decide to take Speedy back to Dragon's Edge for a full recovery, unaware that their action attracts the entire Speed Stinger pack.

Speedy becomes accustomed to Dragon's Edge and also reveals that his species has evolved webbings in their feet, enabling them to travel across the archipelago. Snotlout is not pleased in having Speedy around, so he and Ruffnut decide to fly the young dragon back to his island. When the sun sets, Speedy wakes up and paralyzes Hookfang. When the Speed Stinger pack reaches the Edge, the riders struggle to protect each other. Speedy becomes inspired by their cooperation and kindness and starts to protect the riders from his own pack. He eventually convinces his Alpha to leave the Edge and says his farewell to the riders before chasing after his pack.

Physical Appearance[]

Speedy appears very similar to other members of his kind, except the Alpha. He is lime green with a tan underbelly. He also has lime green fins and stubby wings. Like other members of his species, his stinger is red in color. Unlike a typical Speed Stinger, he along with the rest of his pack have webbed feet.

Personality[]

Speedy was, at first, very skittish and vicious, attacking the riders when they tried to help him. However, later on, he became very protective of the riders, who, at this point, he considered his pack. He defended them from the other Speed Stingers from his pack, even going as far as directly disobeying his alpha. He even wanted to stay behind with the riders, but Hiccup convinced him to return to his pack.

He is also playful and affectionate, as he licked Snotlout's face, much to the boy's disgust.

Abilities[]

Speedy possess all the abilities of a Speed Stinger and of his pack:

  • Speed: Speed Stingers are renowned for being the fastest dragon species on foot.
  • Water Running: His pack needed a way to island-hop so they evolved in a way that provided them with the ability to run on water using webbed feet.
  • Paralyzing Stinger: Because Speedy is still an adolescent, he can only cause partial paralysis in his victims, as his sting potency is not at full effect.

Relationships[]

Hiccup[]

Hiccup was the first one to meet Speedy, where he was found wounded. Speedy was shown to be very aggressive just like a typical Speed Stinger, but Hiccup didn't want to leave this juvenile Stinger alone, thinking it will die from its injuries. Hiccup was able to befriend Speedy by showing him trust, and it worked as proven when Speedy considered the teens and their dragons to be his pack.

Fishlegs[]

Speedy has shown to have a good relationship with Fishlegs, as he was seen listening to Fishlegs' commands a little bit. Thus, Speedy had a new "pack" to listen to as well. However, Speedy did sting Fishlegs on his arm, but they still had a great bond.

Meatlug[]

Meatlug has shown to like Speedy, as it was baby dragon. She shows some mothering to him, as she was trying to nudge Speedy to get him to train with Fishlegs. She was even trying to save Speedy from running on water, as she assumed he would drown since they are unable to swim. However, the riders have found out that they can swim in the water, much to Meatlug's shock.

Snotlout[]

Speedy didn't like Snotlout at all, due to being mistreated and insulted by him many times because of his hatred of Speed Stingers and what their kind had done to Snotlout in the past, which stuns him. However, Speedy still shows some respect to him because they are in the same pack, as Speedy will defend Snotlout from his old pack.

Hookfang[]

Speedy and Hookfang didn't show to interact much, but Hookfang didn't seem to like Speedy much, as he was a bit scared of Speedy when he got loose from the ropes and stung him down to the ground. Like Hiccup stated, Speedy was part of the Edge Pack, as he will protect the riders from harm, so it's possible Speedy will defend Hookfang since he is member of the pack.
