DreamWorks How to Train Your Dragon

Stoick the Vast

Stoick the Vast

Stoick “the Vast” Haddock is the legendary Chief of the Hairy Hooligan Tribe on the island of Berk. Renown far and wide for his dragon-killing prowess, Stoick was swayed by his son’s display of what dragons and humans could accomplish working together, helping to turn Berk into a haven for dragons of all kinds. Stoick is a warrior and protector, and does everything he can to protect his people, be they vikings or dragons.
