Viggo later played this fact to his advantage in his conflict with the Dragon Riders, whom he tricked into traveling to the Defenders' island with a map he had made out to make it look as though they were his allies. At some point, they also encountered the tribe of Dragon Hunters that came to be led by Viggo Grimborn, and a lasting antagonism developed between the two factions. The Defenders lived in peace with the dragons on their island they also established a relationship with the Eruptodon, whom they called "The Great Protector". The Dragon Riders are captured by the Defenders of the Wing Snotlout: " Who are these guys?" Fishlegs: " And what are they feeding our dragons?" Hiccup: " I don't know, but I think we're about to find out." Thus the Defenders do not bond with dragons and don't know about dragon training. They seem to have a vast knowledge of dragons but any contact, like flying on their backs, is strictly forbidden. The Defenders frequently offer it tribute, like food and flowers. Especially the Eruptodon, a Boulder Class dragon that lives inside a volcano on Caldera Cay and prevents it from erupting for which it is worshiped as the Great Protector. The Defenders seem to be a monarchy, ruled by Queen Mala who is very protective over her kingdom and all dragons, which the Defenders see as holy beings.
Unlike all previously encountered tribes, the Defenders don't seem to be based on Vikings and are rather designed as an Asian civilization, (or ninjas) with a lot of Chinese and Japanese elements in their clothing, weaponry, and architecture.
