Skullions are unique among dragons because they have lost the ability to fly, along with their eyesight and hearing.īecause of the Skullion's voracious appetite and savagery, their island is devoid of any other fauna. Their extra-long claw on their forpaws are used to sever the Achilles' tendon on its victims, and then eat them alive. Skullions have an excellent sense smell, and rely heavily on this sense. Skullions appear to be black or very dark purple in color, have a single row of spines running down their backs, and a spiked tail. Their depictions have no wings at all, and are variously shown with no or vestigial eyes. Skullions have large " sparkling silver teeth" and one very long sharp talon on their front paws. The main character himself, Hiccup describes Skullions as "beasts from Hell". It has this one extra-long super-sharp claw, with which it disables its victims by cutting the Achilles tendon at the back of their heels, leaving them unable to walk. Despite being blind and very nearly deaf, it is one of the most fearsome predators of all dragons, hunting in packs using a highly developed sense of smell alone. The Skullion, is a very rare, very savage species of flightless dragon.
