This leaves him to face the villain dragon all on his own. However, Gobber won't stand for this and chooses to help his friend in the face of insuperable probabilities. It's during this moment as best friends hook hands in comradeship, looking into each other's eyes, that the audience becomes fully aware that they are equals, friends willing to sacrifice, to die for one another.
The second character that is introduced with a disability is Toothless, the fierce and unstoppable Night Fury. Possessing a damaged tail due to being attacked, Toothless becomes unable to carry out his number one talent, flying. However, Hiccup, who happens to work with Gobber, who makes prosthetics, takes on the creative process of supplying his dragon pal with the very tool he needs. It's this very tool that helps Toothless regain his personal identity. Interestingly though, neither Hiccup nor the townspeople ever mention Toothless' tool of aid. In continuation with the theory that a 'viking is a viking,' it would also seem that a 'dragon is a dragon.' Toothless' fierceness and validity as a creature is not dependent upon his physical structure, rather his honor and his might. The third and final character shown to possess a disability is showcased in the last five minutes of the film. The protagonist himself, Hiccup, wakes up from his victorious battle to revel in the knowledge that he has lost his very own foot. In a heartwarming role reversal moment, after losing his foot, Hiccup takes his first few steps on his new prosthetic, he does so with the help of his dragon. This also happens to be the only moment of main focus given to the prosthetic. However Hiccup does mention later on that he might mess around with his prosthetic to improve it, yet no one accounts this as major problem or big deal. .
As Hiccup steps outside he is well received; the reaction from the Village is that of a Hero's welcome.
