Biography

Remembered by Ruffnut and Tuffnut

Tuffnut: "Uncle Fenris, that's what. It must be him."
Dagur: "What are you talking about? What are they talking about?"
Tuffnut: "Well, our great-uncle on our mother's side."
Ruffnut: "Fenris Thorston."
Tuffnut: "Fenrisulfr Thorston, to be exact, went missing when we were kids. His name literally means "down below". "Fenris, Fenris, tall and fair, who did you let braid your hair?" That was the poem we youngsters used to recite to him. And Fenris would reply, "Hair. Mouth. Cheese of yak. Come, Sintar. Bring a melon."[src]
   

After discovering the location of the King of Dragons on Berserker Island, Tuffnut believes that his uncle Fenris is underneath the island. He then recites a poem he used to adress Fenris when he was a child. Astrid then cuts Tuffnut off, telling him that Fenris has nothing to do with their situation. Later, when Hiccup gets out of the cave, bringing the King of Dragons' egg, Tuffnut asks if Fenris helped him, remarking how the egg has his uncle's fingerprints on it. Hiccup simply replies "Sure, why not?", implying that he liked Tuffnut's story.

Physical Appearance

According to the rhyme that the twins recited, Fenris Thorston is tall and has light coloured hair (presumably blond) which may be braided.
