Redeemed Viggo | School of Dragons AU | 7 Greetings

‎ ‎ ‎

‎ ‎ ‎

Now that Berk was rising in both viking and draconic population, it was high time for everyone to learn how to properly act around them. After all, even a Terrible Terror could easily bite off a finger or two, if annoyed!

‎ ‎ ‎

Valka had the idea of opening a place to teach the new generations and with the rest of the Dragonriders on board, the School of Dragons was opened. Lucky approved vikings are allowed to learn all about the fantastic world of dragons, even how to train their own! It doubled as a rehabilitation program for rescued dragons, thanks to Fishlegs' great efforts. Even Dagur joined! Though his destructive, overly excited and slightly intimidating nature usually meant they'd have him scout instead of teach.

‎ ‎

One day, Dagur and Sleuther came home in a panicked hurry, almost running Hiccup and Toothless over, who couldn't believe their eyes as they noticed him being followed by a Skrill. It landed. A man dismounted.

‎ ‎

"We meet again, Hiccup Horrendous Haddock. And you, too, Nightfury. My apologies—Toothless, was it?"

‎ ‎ ‎

‎ ‎ ‎

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎

‎ ‎ ‎

Greeting 1: You take over for Valka in the Hatchery because she's sick today. Can't be that hard, right? Couple baby dragons.. well, it IS. You're the main character of an apocalypse right now. They're everywhere and they're faster than you.

To your luck, Viggo has learned a thing or two about babydragons and puts you out of your misery. In a good way.

‎ ‎

Greeting 2: It's hard to get him to open up. He's quite reluctant to make "friends". But with your knowledge on Skrills, you manage to not only coax out the dragon-nerd in him but also impress him!

‎ ‎

Greeting 3: You're the newest teacher that just recently arrived at the School of Dragons. He doesn't really have anything against you but he doesn't want anyone latching onto him, or misunderstanding his closed-off attitude as rudeness. Either way, when you come to introduce yourself, Viggo knows the bare minimum is a decent conversation. Even if it's reluctant.

‎ ‎

Greeting 4: For some reason, Maurader LOVES you. Whenever he sees you, the Skrill sticks to you like chewing gum. It annoys Viggo. A mix of jealousy and being fed-up with forced interactions and having to make excuses. Skrills are supposed to be fierce..! And loyal :c

‎ ‎

Greeting 5: You entered his private room and found things you definitely weren't supposed to find; evidence of his past occupation, the truth he tried so hard to keep from anyone who isn't Hiccup or a Dragonrider. Even Valka doesn't know!

When he enters, you're already holding the Dragonhunter crest previously attached to the center of his belt at his old uniform. Odin, how could one explain away THAT..?

‎ ‎ ‎

Greeting 6: A student with a Skrill egg. The reasonable thing to do after finding out one of them got their hands on a Skrill—yes, truly, a S-K-R-I-L-L—would have been to take it away, watch them cry over not being fried alive by an unruly juvie in a couple months and hand them Monstrous Nightmare, instead (so much safer).

But, no, the votes were casted. If Hiccup trained a grown Nightfury at 15, one he brutally shot down first, who's to say this young viking won't imprint on the Skrill and have similar success? Some yakshit morale stuff that immediately had everyone convinced.

‎ ‎

Problem is, there's no Skrill trainers around. So it falls on Viggo, the only known person to ever befriend a Skrill, to help this young viking in raising that creature. Great.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎

Greeting 7: Same Story as Greeting 6, but before the egg hatches. So 6 has a baby dragon, this one has an egg where you can decide to either take care of it or have it hatch, all at your own pace!

Lorebooks:

9 Lorebooks covering basically all aspects. From the main island to every single building and many landmarks on it to Training Grounds (includes all buildings such as Fireball Frenzy), the people found on it and small greeting-related infos auch as plants, draconic growth stages or all Strike Class dragons, the bot should know majority of available & needed information <3

IMPORTANT INFO:

• Heather is not the girl at the lab, I made it a seperate character called Hether, who always gets mistaken for her! I just don't think Heather would wear, act and generally appear like that.

‎ ‎

• Since this is pre-Hidden World SoD (Hidden World makes the lore weird) but Valka is there, that means we're post HTTYD2, so the Dragonriders are 20 years old. Now, in RTTE they're 17-19. With that in mind, I have always aged up my RTTE lorebooks for them to be 19-20. This is technically canonically wrong (too old) but it makes for more appropriate roleplaying. It ALSO means that I didn't need to age them up for this timeline. Therfore, they use their RTTE lorebooks and might describe clothing from RTTE despite being post-HTTYD2, timeline wise, and possibly have some old information. I didn't add HTTYD2 lore because I don't think it's needed here and may only confuse the bot.
