Dragon Eye

The Dragon Eye is an item from Dreamworks Dragons: Race to the Edge.

In Race to the Edge
The Dragon Eye was left behind on the Reaper in the Ship Graveyard. It was then discovered by Berk Dragon Rider Hiccup and his dragon, Toothless. It was briefly taken by Dagur the Deranged, but was reclaimed by Hiccup. Gobber was unable to open it. He instead set off a couple of booby traps such as sleeping darts and gas.

The Dragon Eye is a projector like device that has symbols of different dragons on it. Hiccup and company use this device in Race to the Edge to discover new lands and new dragons every week. Hiccup states in the intro that the Dragon Eye "changes everything"

Purpose
The Dragon Eye provides information on dragons such as the Catastrophic Quaken, Night Terror, Death Song, Razorwhip, and the Snow Wraith. It also provided maps to islands such as Dark Deep and items to more lenses for the Dragon Eye. This device is so important and valued that many Vikings, including the Riders and the Berserkers, want it.

Appearance and Characteristics
The Dragon Eye is a tube-like device with metal rings around it. The one closest to the opening is shaped like a dragon's mouth. The rest of the device is woody brown in color and it has small ancient scribbles and symbols on it. When projected, it emits complicated symbols and runes, differently colored depending on which dragon's fire they use. It also had several booby traps that include sleeping darts and a green gas that sinks and appears similar to that of a Hideous Zippleback.

The Dragon Eye can only be powered by a dragon's flame. Toothless usually powers it up. Also, the Snow Wraith's tooth is the only tooth that can unlock it, by inserting it into a hole and turning it like a key. . Hiccup and the Riders collect different lenses and use different dragon flames to unlock new discoveries. Different dragon flames and of different intensities result in a different projection. Stormfly, Meatlug , and Fanghook can also power it up.

The Dragon Eye can project images of different colors, each unlocking the secrets to different dragon species and locations. Simply by pushing the buttons on the device, turning the rings around it, changing its lens and also adjusting the dragon's fire can result in many different projects. They do not only show information, but also maps. However, even with its vast storage of information, the Dragon Eye does not contain any information on the Night Fury.

Abilities
