— Dragons: Rise of Berk
Biography [ ] Early Life [ ] This Flightmare was the dragon that attacked Berk every ten years. It paralyzed and killed Astrid's uncle Fearless Finn Hofferson with its mist. This led to the rumor that he froze with fear, thus tarnishing his title and the entire Hofferson House.
Ten years after Fearless Finn Hofferson was killed, Hiccup , Toothless and Astrid went to go after the Hofferson's Bane to observe it and to find out why it was attacking Berk. When they first saw and encountered it, Astrid jumped off Toothless and was ready to fight the dragon. It froze and paralyzed her with its mist, though it was only temporary.
They then followed the Hofferson's Bane until they found the reason why it was attacking Berk. The Hofferson's Bane was following a river of Glowing Algae , its main food source. While Hiccup was inspecting the algae, Toothless drank some of the glowing algae, which caused him to glow. When the Hofferson's Bane found the now glowing Toothless, it became extremely aggressive.
Usually, Toothless' scales would blend perfectly with the night sky, but since he drank from the river, his body started to glow, making him unable to hide from the Flightmare. It chased and attacked the two, but lost them when they hid inside a cave. After some time, the glow wore off.
Later on Fishlegs , Meatlug and Stormfly arrived to help Hiccup and Astrid. After being briefed about what they had learned, Fishlegs made a plan to stop the Flightmare. By cutting a new channel for the river to go out to sea, the Hofferson's Bane would be forced to follow it. They started to do just that until the Hofferson's Bane arrived. Thinking that they were stealing its food, it started to attack them. Hiccup, Astrid, and their dragons kept the Flightmare at bay, while Fishlegs and Meatlug continued to create the new channel. Once it was done, the algae flowed into the sea, prompting the Flightmare to chase after its food. It hasn't appeared on Berk since then.
Legacy [ ] Though the actual status of Hofferson's Bane is unknown, it lives on in stories of the Hooligan Tribe . Its appearance sparked the formation of the holiday Dreadfall .
Physical Appearance [ ] Hofferson's Bane is a typically colored Flightmare, having a base of cornflower blue with light aqua outlines on its wings. After consuming Glowing Algae , this dragon has an intensely bright cyan glow.
Even though Hofferson's Bane looks like any ordinary Flightmare, which are bright shades of blue, in the game, Dragons: Rise of Berk
