This morning, DreamWorks updated the How to Train Your Dragon 2 site with new pictures and stats for the Vikings and dragons along with a new look!
The coolest part of the new site is the Dragonpedia. It's basically the dragon manual updated for the digital age. Right now there are only nine dragons in it, but it seems like it will be updated with more of the TV show and film dragons in the future.
The newest dragon is Vaka's Stormcutter, named Cloudjumper:
The owl-like Cloudjumper has been Valka's companion of choice for flying and rescuing other dragons over the last twenty years. Cloudjumper's pride, confidence, and large size lead him to think of himself as the top dragon in Valka's mountain fortress, second only to the Bewilderbeast, who is the king of all dragons in the nest.
Due to their two decades of experience together, Cloudjumper and Valka share a wordless shorthand when flying. Whereas other dragon riders need to call out commands to turn or shoot, Cloudjumper instinctively knows when Valka wants him to move or attack, adding to their combined mystique and prowess in battle.
And Cloudjumper is big compared to Valka:
We've seen a few seconds of Cloudjumper in the trailer, but there are even more pictures of Cloudjumper and Valka from Dragons 2 on the new site:
DreamWorks also added a Viking Guide to the site, which includes pictures of the main characters and some less mathematical stats, like height, weight, eye color, and favorite weapon (interestingly, Stock's weapon of choice is no longer a hammer).
There's also a "location" stat, which is curious because so far, all seven characters are from Berk. Perhaps other characters from outside Berk, like Valka, Drago, and Eret will show up soon.
For the first time ever, we know the official ages of the dragon trainers in the second film. Hiccup, Astrid, and Snotlout are 20 years old and Ruffnut, Tuffnut, and Fishlegs are 19. Stoick is 50!
Here are some of the new character photos from the Viking Guide:
And perhaps even cooler, we get to see how big the dragons are compared to their riders:
first comment is mine
ReplyDeleteand can I just say... SKRILL
ReplyDeleteAnd I say: CLOUDJUMPAH
ReplyDeleteOMG!! Toothless Looks Older <3
ReplyDeleteawesomeeeeeeee
ReplyDeletedis is lincredible the cloudjumper is awesome
ReplyDeleteOMG!! Toothless Looks So Much Older ;~; <3
ReplyDeletei love the cloudjumper soooooo much
ReplyDeleteguys look i touched it up a little
ReplyDeleteThat Skrill is beautiful.
ReplyDelete:'O BEAUTIFUL! CLOUDJUMPER IS BEAUTIFUL
ReplyDeleteOMG SO AWESOME!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAMAZING! DreamWorks is killing me with this pictures! WAAAAAAAAH!"
ReplyDelete:D I know right?
ReplyDeletehttp://www.zazzle.com/howtotrainyourdragon look what I found....
ReplyDeleteDragons Merchandise!!!
I'm sure Dreamworks is spying on the Grapevine, and they release new dragon news when the comments are getting too out of hand in the previous post XD
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking that, every time we reach a 1000 comments a new post go's up
ReplyDeleteThe photos are cool, but I'd be just as interested to see the stats that are supposed to accompany them. The Night Fury, Skrill, and the mystery species that Cloudjumper belongs to are all presumably rare dragons. I'm curious as to how they compare to each other according to the official source.
ReplyDeleteWOW I can't belive that in the second movie will be a skill! Maybe the same like in the series?
ReplyDeleteBut why they had to put out Thornado in the series... I mean there are 5(!) years between the movies and stoick will have to had find a dragon in this time.... If he will just get the monstrous nightmare in the second movie then I ask myself what he did the 5 years without a dragon!
XD Let's try to reach 1000 posts as fast as possible!
ReplyDeleteWe might just get another trailer :D
ReplyDeleteAwesome !!
ReplyDeleteHow am I supposed to turn off the computer now ???
YES! Dreamworks, if you are viewing this, please, oh please, release a new trailer soon, sincerely, every Grapeviner XD
ReplyDelete*Spongebob voice* We're waiting, we're waiting' we're waiting.
ReplyDeleteMe too. I want to sleep, but this is to awesome to go sleep now!
ReplyDeletehttp://howtotrainyourdragon.com//notice.php?url=http://www.zazzle.com/howtotrainyourdragon
ReplyDeleteLook what a I found...
DRAGONS MERCHANDISE!!!!
Just imagine Dreamworks being Squidward XD
ReplyDeleteAnd we have a lot of work till the 1000th comment....
ReplyDeleteXD I was gonna do that, but a new post came in the way...
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to, but Toothless with a squidward nose pops up
ReplyDeleteYes but we will get it ^^
ReplyDeleteXD You just killed me
ReplyDeletehttp://howtotrainyourdragon.com//notice.php?url=http://www.zazzle.com/howtotrainyourdragon
ReplyDeleteLook what i found...
DRAGONS MERCHANDISE!!!!
Why don't we get to work *clap clap* alright everybody, fire it up!
ReplyDeleteOh sorry, looks like we're going to need someone to fill in catherins spot in the grapevine
ReplyDeleteThey're beautiful, except for Toothless, in my opinion... He doesn't look loke his real self, and has an expression that's far too human and not dragon-like
ReplyDeleteAgreed, and he looks so old!
ReplyDeleteAt least he looks good in the trailer.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's ok he grew up, but this is too much...
ReplyDeleteNOO!! I love the Grapevine! NO ONE WILL REPLACE MY AWESOMENESS!! XD
ReplyDeleteWHAT! Your alive! *viking voice* we should throw a part to celebrate.
ReplyDeleteWay too much, he has bags under his eyes! Like unnatural bags that a dragon that grew
ReplyDeleteand whats up with his left wing?
ReplyDeleteXD Yes! *Mildew voice* Party at my house?
ReplyDeleteK, but I have no clue where you live. Oh well, I'll just knock on random doors, I'm bound to find you eventually... probably not
ReplyDeleteSo it isn't just me who noticed it...
ReplyDeleteHis left wing is photophobic (I don't know if that's even a word XD)
ReplyDeletewell google translates the word "photophobic" ^^
ReplyDeleteWe have way to much time to make up words like photophobic
ReplyDeleteXD You should start your work in Canada that'll help (probably not XD)
ReplyDeleteI agree that something's a bit uncomfortable about his expression in that shot. I think it's the way his mouth is opened just enough to see his top teeth. It does end up giving him a very human-like facial expression compared to the other dragons.
ReplyDeleteUgh, just tell me how the party went.
ReplyDeleteWell google is translating the word "photophobic" but it doesn't make sense...
ReplyDeletealso dict(.)cc is translating the word
Photophobic sounds like what you would be called when your afraid of pictures
ReplyDeleteGood, except for my parents complaining about me not going to take my shower, *throws confetti* I'M ALIVE
ReplyDeleteI think that his eyes are too close together.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's an expression of sadness or something else...?
ReplyDeleteExactly what Toothless' left wing is XD
ReplyDeleteAnd they looks smaller then usually, doesn't they?
ReplyDeleteHe doesn't look sad to me. Between his eyes and mouth, it almost looks closer to a smirk. Hard to say for sure when the picture is completely removed from any context though.
ReplyDeleteIt's trying to get detach itself from his body, obviously.
ReplyDeleteYes I could understood in the context, but both sites translate it terriblelly ^^
ReplyDeleteI just imagine Toothless' left wing having a mind of it's own XD Well, it's time for me to leave now, goodbye! *fades away*
ReplyDeleteOuh you're like gobber? ^^
ReplyDeleteOMG THIS IS JUST WHAT I NEED! AND NEW CLOUD JUMPER PIC! WE MIGHT LEARN CLOUD JUMPERS SPECIES!
ReplyDeleteCloudjumper looks awesome!!
ReplyDeleteWhere is everyone?
ReplyDeleteI feel so lonely...
ReplyDeleteGood bye
ReplyDeleteGoodbye, I'm off too !
ReplyDeleteNow I'm off too, Good Night everyone!
ReplyDeleteWhich part of the website did you get those pictures?
ReplyDeletewhat is the website name?
ReplyDeletehowtotrainyourdragon(dot)com or at least I think that's where it is.
ReplyDeleteno thats the first movie website their should be a new one
ReplyDeleteAge can change a little or a lot.
ReplyDeleteBut that website's not available yet. Plus the posters for the next movie are on that site.
ReplyDeleteIt's been five years since the first movie.
ReplyDeleteBe social with me ☆☆☆
ReplyDeleteDo you have any idea where these pictures came from?
ReplyDeleteIt's icelandiceal. He's like a magician and will never reveal his secrets.
ReplyDeleteYaaaaay, there is life here after all!
ReplyDeleteNot for to much longer I'm afraid, even people without a life needs to sleep.
ReplyDeleteI don't like being left lone on grapevine =(
ReplyDeleteI can't not wait to see the movie!
ReplyDeleteOh my god, the wait me eat me alive!
Don't worry, we'll all be back tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteI could care less about what Toothless looks like. Its all Cloudjumper and the Skrill for me (of the four show so far).
ReplyDeleteIt's 22 hours until tommorow D;
ReplyDeleteThat's only long if you don't sleep... you still do sleep, right?
ReplyDeleteNice theory! XD
ReplyDeleteI didnt actually know that happened until now
ReplyDeleteNo... sometimes, when i have absolutely NOTHING to do
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't, We were just saying how it seemed to happen
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely brilliant! Check the Skrill out! Dang. Of course Toothless is giving us his awkward face. Haha, Cloudjumper!! Awesome, simply awesome! I suppose we can safely guess that the Skrill will indeed show up.
ReplyDeleteAha! Jus casually speaking for everyone on this site! Nah Im joking eveyone probs agrees wiv u XD
ReplyDeleteOh. What, so its coincedental??
ReplyDeletepretty much :D
ReplyDeleteThe Skrill is by FAR my favourite dragon. If I could have one it would most definately be a Skrill.
ReplyDeleteXD aha! Oh aright then
ReplyDeleteHe's currently my second favorite, but Toothless tops everybody by a long way in my books.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what dragon I would have, I'll wait to see all the new dragons that are in the movie before i make my decision.
ReplyDeleteTraitor.. a true fan would pick a nightfury because of how cute they are!
ReplyDeleteOh I wish!!! That would be amazing though XD
ReplyDeleteTrue, you can't just not love a night fury
ReplyDeleteDraw the Cloudjumper although recently I started to drawing to him, the only mistake was the colors that elegy. Hope you like it.
ReplyDeleteWell, Mildew lives at the top of a hill, away from all civilisation! XD
ReplyDeletehundredth comment
ReplyDeleteO.K, I need to get off, my laptop is burning through my pants :O
ReplyDeleteAha! THE GRAPEVINE IS EVEYTHING!!! XD
ReplyDeleteWhoa whoa whoa plz guys!!! I love a nigt fury with all my heart, I jus happen to love the Skrill that bit more. XD I mean, it draws power from the lightning, and fires mahusive lightning bolts, and the lightning can run through its whole body!!!!! Tell me that isnt awesome! XD
ReplyDeleteI can replace her ;)
ReplyDeleteActually I don't care much for Night Furys because all everyone wants EVERY in this fandom is a NF. I would take a Monstrous Nightmare or a Hideous Zippleback anyday over a Night Fury.
ReplyDeleteLol XD my tab still has 28%. Although my Wi-Fi goes off at 1:30am, so I dont know how much longer I have, not, much I think...
ReplyDeleteAnd unicorns farts rainbows, how are you going to sit on a dragon who is electrified through and through?
ReplyDeleteClock is 2:40 here
ReplyDeleteExactly! Someone here is smart! DW have deliberately made the NF so cool and the coolest and best dragon, that eveyone is gonna want one. Thats why the Skrill is my all time fav
ReplyDeletelove the skrill! and of course toothless..but he has such a derp expression on this pic lol
ReplyDeleteWell, snotlout manages to sit and ride perfectly fine (well, not perfectly) on Hookfang, and he can set his whole body alight. So I am so sure, with the help of Hiccup, we will figure out a way
ReplyDeleteWhere r u again? Soz I have the memory of a goldfish XD
ReplyDeleteSweden
ReplyDeleteAwwwwweh! Poor catherine! XD
ReplyDeleteOh yh. Well, my clock behind my says 1:45am, but it must be hella fast cuz my Wi-Fi aint gone off yet! Still going strong guys!!
ReplyDeleteMy left arm is aching in pain, I think that i forgot how to human o.o
ReplyDeleteWhoa, what time is over where you live, cause it's noon where I live.... Guess I'm the only one who lives in the Southern Hemisphere ? Sad.... :(
ReplyDeleteRiiiiight.....cuz that makes perfect sense ;-) XD my ledt thumb has gone all double-jointed like on me, cuz I have been typing for hours now. It keeps clicking and spazzing up whenever I press different buttons and move it across the keyboard on my tab -.-
ReplyDeletecompletely awesome!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIt makes perfect sense, I normally never feel pain, so this feels weird for me, wonder what i did :+
ReplyDeleteFive?!? I thougt it was four. HTTYD came out in 2010 right, and now HTTYD2 in 2014. Shoot me if I am wrong cuz that is shameful
ReplyDeleteWhat is?
ReplyDeleteAha! Maybe u have been leaning on ur arm??
ReplyDeleteI heard all the characters were aged five years older.
ReplyDeleteI thought that! I was like, "whoa DW, since when to dragons get bags under their eyes?!"
ReplyDeleteAhs I jus pictured that happening in my head, and the scene that my brain produced gave me a heart attack I laughed so hard! XD
ReplyDeleteHey guys, i have a project that i'm trying to make for me and my friends.. and I wanted to know if there's more people that would be interessed in entering it.. I will explain anything that you guys want to know. (my english is a little "rusty" because i'm from Brazil '._.')
ReplyDeleteI wanna do it! >.<
ReplyDelete:D, I can add you to the list.. Do you have Skype or something like that? (or facebook maybe?) I just need to pass you a small Quiz and explain the project and you're in!
ReplyDeleteI know if I cold have one I would name him Spark
ReplyDeleteOooh, Cloudjumper is ugly.. In a good way though! :D It reminds me of a little dog with a bunch of crooked teeth XD
ReplyDeletedefenitly. THE SKRILL HAS TO SHOW OR I WILL DIY AND PUNCH MY FACE!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteis north America in the southern himishere
ReplyDeleteI would pick a night fury, but it being cute is not at all the reason why I would want one( that's like 3% of the reason why I would want one)...I'm sorry I have failed the fandom...I guess... D:
ReplyDeleteyou can say that again 1 million times
ReplyDeleteAwesome. I really hope they get plushies for them. They look awesome
ReplyDeleteAhhhhhh i come home from the movies to find this yay!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI really like how the animators manage to give every dragon they create a distinct personality. Cloudjumper seems to be a very grouchy dragon, who perhaps has to tolerate younger dragons' antics. The Skrill is fierce and angry, and may not be as social as the other dragons. And as we already know, Toothless is curious and charming, with a healthy dose of skepticism.
ReplyDeleteAwesome!
ReplyDeleteOn a side note, I won't be reading comments anymore if everyone is going to spoil stuff. Sorry.
That one dragons looks like a close relative of the Skrill
ReplyDeleteThe skrill looks more detailed now. Awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteFox will undoubtedly cut a 30 second trailer to use as a TV spot once we get closer to the release. It's questionable if they'll actually include new scenes in the shorter cut though.
ReplyDeleteBetter not share the link to the forum, then. If I do, we may not get any more dragon news!
ReplyDeleteTrue, that Toothy's face is a little strange, but I think it's neat that it's altered to look more human. I believe the animators could be trying to make Toothless look slightly more humanish to get the crowd to think of him as an actual individual person, not just a dragon that Hiccup is buddies and rides with.
ReplyDeletethe pictures
ReplyDeleteI think a skrill will be in httyd 2
ReplyDeleteIf that is true I bet statictheskrill will be happy.
:) i really like this picture i did of Hiccup and his buddy Toothless =) i hope you guys like it
ReplyDeleteYou mean the purple one? Because I'm pretty sure that's a skrill...
ReplyDeletesomething is really wrong with the inside of my body it keeps feeling like my heart is sad but it's not
ReplyDeletehttp://www.zazzle.com/dragons_xtreme_stunts_skate_boards-186776756810206248
ReplyDeleteCheck out new dragons swag or I think it's new
Yay im not the only one playing with the pictures on their tablet!!!
ReplyDeleteI typed howtotrainyourdragon2.com and all it said was dreamworks animation and then redirected to howtotrainyourragon.com.
ReplyDeleteHey guys. Anyone awake at 1am EST? :3 probably not.... Hey look it's Toothless sitting in the chocolate bucket
ReplyDeleteI think i should shorten my name to Toothless. No one here has that name yet
ReplyDeleteCan't sleep, it's 1 in the morning :D
ReplyDeleteLook at them graphics.. The lighting to the details of the scales and the large array of bright colors.. Cloudjumper looks amazing yet pretty sinister. And the Skrill is back??
ReplyDeleteOMG OMG I WANT THEM! Okay, not the all, but the Hiccup Explorer Courier Bag looks awesome! And the posters... and the shirts... I want everything! Get me money to buy these!
ReplyDeleteCloudjumper! Colorful SKRILL! *-*
ReplyDeleteWhoa... Dat Cloudjumper... so cool! And look at the Skrill, so purple. I never notice how bright it is. So does this mean... There is a possibility Skrill will be among of the new dragons featured? If it is, it's beyond awesome!
ReplyDeleteYep, that's what we want! XD
ReplyDeleteYou mean sort of dragon babysitter? XD
ReplyDeleteYour comment reminds me of Cloudjumper's expression when Toothless playing under his wing...
Me too. I don't have any problems with Night Fury, but if I had to pick as my dragon partner, it'll be either Skrill, Thunderdrum or Snaptrapper.
ReplyDeleteOMG! I wish I could get HTTYD merchandise where I live.
ReplyDeleteAll I can get is the movie and a few games.
It sucks!
Is it just me, or is that picture of Astrid and Stormfly really rough? IDK, she just doesn't look normal.
ReplyDeleteC'mon, c'mon, I CAN NOT WAIT ANY LONGER, FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE DREAMWORKS, REALEASE THE TRAILER! RELEASE IT I SAY! FOR THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF ALL GRAPEVINE CITIZENS AND USERS!
ReplyDeleteYou guys probably know this already, but...
ReplyDeleteThere is going to be another wallpaper...
I wonder what it is?
Say what you will about the Skrill, but they are just beautiful to look at. All of the dragons have that amazing to look at quality but the Skrill just really signifies it better than the others in some ways in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing valka's dragon he's SO COOL i'm thinking its strike class, sharp class or mystory whaat about you guys?
ReplyDeletewhat will the website be called
ReplyDeleteplease help!
well i am on the east coast of the us but not awake at 1 xD

ReplyDeleteLol same
ReplyDeleteI were awake until 6 am, it's just that I don't spend that much time here at the late night / early morning, because there aren't many commenters here then :P
ReplyDeleteIf it is true I will flip out and run around the cinema like a psycho. Then chant dragons then continue to watch
ReplyDeleteOr googl more times :D
ReplyDeleteIts almost 12 am here in Australia, Im actually getting sleepy despite this Dragonpedia.
ReplyDeleteI'd call mine (obviously) Static.
ReplyDeleteSKRILLS GOOD, END OF STORY (no offense)
ReplyDeleteWho else saw the BEWILDERBEAST HEAD???
ReplyDeleteSOPA is going to delete all fanfictions, fanvideos, fanart etc if we dont complete the petition! NOoOOOOOoOoOOO
ReplyDeleteI've seen thaton Tumblr, too. But "Tracker Class"? I would prefer it when Toothy stay in the Class where he belong -> Strike Class!
ReplyDeleteThe Stats of Cloudjumper looks a bit weak, but maybe he has enormous Firepower and Jaw Strength.
i thought it would be called dragonpedia
ReplyDeletecuz its a new HTTYD2 site?
hey eel will the dragonpedia be a completely new site or will it be on the HTTYD site if it is a new site can i have the link
