— "Darkest Night" |
The Mace-Axe-Sword is a weapon Snotlout created in a fantasy in the Dragons: Race to the Edge, Season 6 episode, "Darkest Night". It does, however, appear in the background in other episodes.
History[]
Hooligan Weapon[]
The Mace-Axe-Sword is first seen in the episode "Viking for Hire", bundled together with many other weapons that Gobber forged. Their primary use was dragon-slaying, which no longer happens. When Hiccup asked Gobber to teach the Dragon Riders, he carted the weapons into the Berk Dragon Training Academy and threatened the dragons with the Mace-Axe-Sword. All the dragons flew off, scared of violence.
Dragon Hunter Weapon[]
A Mace-Axe-Sword is displayed in the background, hanging on the wall of the wrecked Dragon Hunter ship, The Reaper.
Armorwing Metal[]
A Mace-Axe-Sword is seen in the Armorwing's piles of metal when Snotlout was trying to get the Jorgenson ceremonial axe back.
Dragon Rider Weapon[]
The Mace-Axe-Sword is also seen in “Sandbusted” in the background of Astrid's Hut where Astrid was struggling to find Hiccup a betrothal gift.
Fantasy Weapon[]
While Hiccup is dealing with the injury of his father in "Darkest Night," the other Riders tell stories about what Berk would be like if they had never left to go to Dragon's Edge. In Snotlout's idealistic fantasy, he would have been promoted to "Weapons Inventor." He would create the greatest weapon ever - the Mace-Axe-Sword. In his tale, he was also the awe of the village, with Gobber revering him and his weapon, proclaiming it to be one of the most beautiful things he had ever seen.
Physical Appearance[]
The Mace-Axe-Sword is a large and somewhat unrealistic looking weapon, as tall as or taller than Snotlout himself. It starts with a spear-tipped hilt, then becomes a jagged-edge sword. Midway along the blade is a double-headed axe. It terminates in another asymmetrical double-headed axe with a spiky mace cutting through the center.
Trivia[]
- Due to the sheer size of this weapon, it would be near impossible to wield.
- The Mace-Axe-Sword appears in School of Dragons as a weapon the player can use in the mini-game Dragon Tactics.
