Wingmaidens

The Wingmaidens are a tribe of women who care for hatchling Razorwhips in place of the dragon mothers in prevention of male dragons killing them.

Personality
About a thousand years before they meet Hiccup and the other Dragon Riders, Razorwhips nearly went extinct because male Razorwhips continually killed the offspring of rival dragons. So the Wingmaidens, at the request of Freya, vowed to help the species out, offering to care for the hatchlings and help defend them from any male presence. As the dragons are born blind, the women train them by having them fly on their backs until they can see and can care for themselves. It's revealed that Windshear was once one of the Razorwhips they had cared for before Heather found her.

Powers and Abilities
The Wingmaidens have no supernatural or magical abilities and are otherwise normal human beings. They do however posses skills in dragon training as they care for young Razorwhips and teaches them how to fly by letting them ride on their backs, until they are ready to reunite with their mothers; which creates a illusion of them being "actual" winged, flying women.
