Dagur: Dead or Alive?

What are the chances that Dagur is dead or that he somehow survived? :huh: all i know is that all he had was a gronckle and he went headlong against the Dragon Hunters. If he had the Frozen Skrill, he might have survived but i doubt he did. No offense to Meatlug, but Gronckles are easy game for any viking. Dagur probably saw it as a way to atone for all the lies he made up about killing his father and for losing his sister, heather. Do you think he's alive?

I think he is dead. :(
Even though they didnt show his body sinking in the water.

The only reason I feel like he might be alive is because of Heather. She didn't appear in HTTYD2 so something must occur for her to disappear- like leaving with her brother.
It doesn't seem like she's going to die because Fishlegs seems very unconcerned about chasing after Ruff in HTTYD2 so I feel like Heather will have a happy ending... unless she just disappears again which, honestly, isn't that out of character ^_^

I personally think he died... But he died a hero's death, as did Shattermaster. May they rest in peace... :'(

Oh, and I wrote a One-Shpt where he's dead, so... Yeah. That's my headcannon, unless it's proven wrong.

I'm skeptical either way.
But when it comes down to it I guess I lean slightly towards dead, because of the symbolism of the dagger sinking in the water.

I kinda hope he stays dead, but if he does come back I hope he remains his new self. Though I am skeptical of that too.... :ermm:

I too am leaning toward believing he's dead, but I really hope for Heather's sake that I'm wrong... -_-

General rule of fiction is if you don't see the character die on screen or you don't see the body afterwards, then they're not dead. This is so prevalent that there's even a trope associated with it Never Found the Body really there's more than one but that one is most applicable here. There are exceptions to this rule don't get me wrong there, 99.9% of the time though if you think a characters dead and you don't see one of the above assume they're alive until otherwise stated. I will say that if this does turn out to be the end for Dagur I would tip my helmet to the writers and creators behind the show.

I suppose that's true, but we've never seen a dead body on RTTE before and I feel like that's due to the child section of the audience... Would they be willing to show a dead body? We didn't see them in Buffalord Soldier (although I feel like this actually aided in the eerieness of the scene)
