Biography[]
How to Fight a Dragon's Fury[]
Barbara the Barbarian gathered on the Island of Tomorrow with the rest of the tribes of the Barbaric Archipelago when the Druid Guardian was crowning the King of the Wilderwest. Suddenly Hiccup showed up alive on the island and made his statement about why he should be king, Barbara spoke for the Archipelago and said that there was once a time that they (the Dragonmarkers) would've followed him at the Amber Slavelands, but another year of war made them desperate. This made them decide to choose Alvin as king so he could end the war. The Druid Guardian then called upon the Dragon Guardians of Tomorrow to kill Hiccup, but Fishlegs interrupted with evidence that Hiccup was the true king. This caused a sequence of events involving the many tribes relaying stories of Hiccup's heroism, with them now choosing Hiccup as king. Barbara chimed in with her saying that it seemed even her cat Fearless has chosen Hiccup as king, much to Excellinor the Witch's furious rage. Barbara survived the final battle and thus witness peace be established between humans and dragons, then celebrated with everyone on Tomorrow.
Personality[]
Not much is known about Barbara's personality, due to the fact that the character has appeared very little. However, from the little that has been seen, she is very caring and compassionate, due to the fact that she only wanted Alvin as king so he could end the Second Dragon War sooner, before the Dragon Rebellion destroyed the entire Archipelago. Barbara also had an admiration for Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, who's quests she had heard off, and like many others, she opted to take the Dragonmark in support of him. Later on, although the loss of hope had driven Barbara and his tribe to supporting Alvin, Barbara's belief in peace was empowered by the events of the coronation and she was one of several that spoke out in support of Hiccup and his ascension to the throne.
