It saved us. And it risked its own life doing it. If we do this, we're no better than the Dragon Hunters. We're just using a different cage. And he doesn't deserve that.[src]

There was also the risk of it falling into the wrong hands, such as Dagur the Deranged, who could use it against Berk.

Official Description[]
“
The silhouette of a Skrill is the symbol of the Berserker tribe. This Dragon was once "owned" by Dagur the Deranged, until Hiccup set it free. Dagur is NOT happy.
During the events of "A View to a Skrill, Parts 1 and 2", The Skrill was found and honored by the Berserkers. The Dragon Riders soon learned about its whereabouts from Mulch and Bucket, and took it back to Berk, so that they can learn about it.
The twins and Snotlout then blew the Skrill out of the ice, despite being warned to let it be by Hiccup.
The Skrill unfrozen from the huge block of ice.
The Skrill escaped, easily knocking aside Stormfly, and the Dragon Riders tried to stop it before Dagur the Deranged finds it to use against Berk.
The Skrill disappeared quickly after it was free, but the riders found out that it just went to Silent Sven's farm and attacked his sheep, before being shooed away. After several twists and turns, the Skrill's lightning attack was countered by Toothless' plasma blast, creating a giant electric explosion, sending Barf and Belch, Toothless, their riders, and the Skrill itself flying away.

The Skrill, however, fell into the water and was found by Alvin the Treacherous. The twins, who crash-landed near the scene, decided to follow Alvin. The Skrill was taken to Outcast Island, where the Berserker and Outcast tribes had allied together. The deal is Alvin will give Dagur the Skrill, and Dagur will have to help Alvin destroy Berk. However, both sides are secretly double-crossing the other tribe to get the Skrill.
When being investigated by Hiccup, they find the Skrill is gone. However, when Dagur and Alvin were arguing about who gets the Skrill, it is revealed that Dagur double-crosses Alvin and takes the Skrill on his ship, behind his sail and tied with two ropes. In a rage, Alvin jumps onto the Berserker ship and fights with Dagur. When Dagur is nearly defeated, he unleashes the Skrill. Now with the tables turned, Alvin starts to dodge the Skrill's lightning. In desperation, Alvin jumps into the water, and Dagur uses the Skrill to shoot lighting at the water, seeming to "kill" Alvin once and for all, leaving Dagur now in full control of the Skrill, as well as both tribes.
Dagur then uses the Skrill to battle Hiccup and Toothless. The Skrill takes hits from Toothless' plasma blasts, yet they tricked Dagur into stepping in a puddle, electrocuting him. The Skrill, which is still in a wild state, escapes and begins to chase Hiccup and his dragon. They enter an iceberg and a chase ensues, with the Skrill's speed and stealth being nearly as good as Toothless'. But the Skrill loses sight of Hiccup and Toothless at one point, but then it sees their reflections on an ice wall. It charges at the ice wall, knocking itself out. The Skrill is later refrozen by the twins and Barf and Belch.
In "Snotlout Gets the Axe", when Snotlout questions why he wasn't the first choice to present the Jorgenson Ceremonial Axe for the wedding between his family and the Hoffersons, Hiccup and Astrid remind him of all the trouble he caused like releasing the Skrill from ice block which he claims was the Twins' fault.
In "A Time to Skrill", after three years of being frozen, the glacier began to thaw and is struck by lightning, releasing the Skrill. After being freed, the Skrill begins to search for Hiccup and Toothless to get revenge on them as they were the ones that trapped him. He first went to Outcast Island, sending all the Vikings off the island. It then headed to Berk, where it was confronted by Berk's backup riders. The Skrill was able to blast them all until the other riders showed up. Toothless immediately shot at the Skrill, and the two blasts caused an explosion. The Skrill retreated afterwards.
It soon ran into Hiccup and Toothless again as they tried to lure the dragon back to the glacier to freeze him again. However, the Skrill did not fall for it again and tried to seal Hiccup and Toothless in. Fortunately, they broke out, and the three headed to the Ship Graveyard. The Skrill tried to draw them out, but one of its blasts burned Toothless' tail, forcing Hiccup to use the sail from the Reaper. In a desperate attempt, Hiccup led the Skrill to the Dragon Hunters, hoping they would immobilize it long enough for him to grab it. This backfired, and the Skrill fell into the hands of Dagur, Ryker and the hunters.
The Dragon Riders tracked the hunters to an island to free the Skrill. They were soon caught in an ambush. Hiccup came up with a crazy idea to free the Skrill, hoping that by helping him, he would attack the hunters. Toothless knocked over the cage, releasing the Skrill. Ryker Grimborn tried to knock out him out with the Dragon Root arrows, but Hiccup and Toothless shielded the Skrill, with the latter taking the arrow. The Skrill fired only at the Dragon Hunters, chasing them off. Spitelout, who joined the riders since he was struck by the Skrill and lost his voice, then shot an arrow at the dragon for payback.
The Dragon Riders took the Skrill back to the glacier to freeze him again, but Hiccup decided not to as he saw its sadness. He released the Skrill from the net, and after a pause, he bowed to Hiccup and Toothless, letting go of his anger and revenge. He then flew off, now happy for having freedom for the first time in many years.
Similar to most, the Frozen Skrill is dark blue with purple highlights and a pale grey underbelly.
Abilities[]
Internal Body Temperature: Like the rest of its kind, the Skrill can stay alive in extremely difficult situations, such as being frozen due to their intense internal body temperature.
Electrokinesis: While most dragons use fire as their ranged attacks, the Skrill is one of the few dragons to use electricity instead. He absorbs lightning from the clouds, hence the reason they are often seen during thunderstorms, and can redirect it from his mouth. He can recharge his lightning and store it in his body for use at a later of time. The Skrill can also create an electrical field that acts similarly to a force field. It then forms a small electrical field that can be used to block projectiles, similar to how a Seashocker protects itself from predators. The Skrill can "ride" lightning bolts. It was first and only seen in "A Time to Skrill" after the Skrill was tamed and set free.
Speed and Agility: The Skrill, being in the Strike class, is an incredibly fast flier he was seen to be able to keep up with Toothless whenever he chased them while in normal flight. Skrills have the distinct ability to ride lightning to reach supersonic speeds; while he did this, it was seen to travel far faster than any dragon seen before. They are also extremely agile, allowing them to make fast and sharp turns.
Stealth: The Skrill is shown to be not only a fast and agile flier, but also quite a stealthy one. He managed to sneak behind the riders by hiding in the clouds.
Stamina and Endurance: The Skrill is shown to have amazing stamina. Even after it had just awoken from its slumber, he could already operate quite well and not be feeling tired after flying long distances without stopping.
Strength: Despite its size, the Skrill has demonstrated to be a very powerful dragon, as he was shown to defeat Stormfly with just one effortless slap of its wings.
Intelligence: As a Strike Class dragon, the Skrill is extremely smart. He was able to tell when Hiccup was trying to trap him once again, but instead caused his plan to backfire, trapping them instead. He was able to remember his old encounters of Outcast Island and Berk to destroy for revenge, as he made a sign on Stoick's house by attacking it.
After being thawed the first time, the Skrill faced off against Hiccup and Toothless several times. After they freed him from Dagur the first time, the Skrill attacked them so they were forced to freeze him in ice again. Due to them leading him into the glacier, the Skrill developed a grudge against the duo. Once freed, he tried to hunt them down for revenge. When Hiccup and Toothless saved him from the Dragon Hunters and decided to set him free instead of freezing him again, the Skrill forgave them and possibly gained respect for them, as he became happy of being given freedom.
Dagur has a full belief that the Skrill belonged to him. He used the dragon as a "puppet" to fire at his targets. The Skrill fell into Dagur's hands again, but he didn't get a chance to harness him up again. The Skrill clearly detested Dagur for capturing him twice, as he fired at him when he was freed.
