Hicclena

Hicclena is the het ship between Hiccup and Elena from the How to Train Your Dragon and Elena of Avalor fandoms.

Canon
Hiccup and Elena never met in canon due to the fact that they come from different universes. Hiccup is a DreamWorks character, while Elena is a Disney character.

Both Hiccup and Elena are very close to flying creatures, dragons and Jaquins, that they ride and live along side the rest of their people. Elena's world is filled with magical artifacts. Hiccup, on his part, has ordinary golden treasure and a unique artifact that possesses dragon knowledge, when it is lit by a dragon's flame. Before Hiccup found the Dragon Eye, he and his friends had relayed on Bork's Book of Dragons and have updated it with their new dragon discoveries. Elena's friend, Mateo, has a magical knowledge version of it known as the Codex Maru as helps them to understand the magic in their world. Like Hiccup, Elena likes to be hands on when lending her people a hand and to ensure that their enemies don't harm them.

Fanon
is considered a rarepair within the How to Train Your Dragon and Elena of Avalor fandoms. It's also a considered a rarepair within the Rise of the Brave Tangled Dragons crossover fandom and it's sup-fandoms. As well as it being a rival ship of Mericcup and Hiccstrid. Like most crossover ships, it's often overshadowed by the most popular ships for each character within their respective fandoms. Despite this, it still has a fair amount of shippers that support this ship. Some believe that the ship began sometime after Elena of Avalor, or the Sofia the First television film, that serves as the beginning of the series aired. Some others cite the popularity of the series, and it becoming popular, like the How to Train Your Dragon film franchise is, as to why the ship started getting more attention. Some shippers think that the ship started from fans comparing the similar traits between Hiccup and Elena together. This led fans of the ship to believe that they can have the two get along with each other in AUs, as lovers or friends.

A few fans have Hiccup coming across Avalor, where he meets and friends Elena. Some other works have Elena travelling to (old or new) Berk for when the island is featured as one of her kingdom's allies. In fanworks featuring either of the two locations, the two usually bond over the friendships they have with Dragons and Jaquins. Fans also feel that Hiccup would remind Elena of her little sister, who is also a skilled inventor.

The ship is so rare, in fact, that it has little to no fanfictions written online. On Fanfiction.Net, there's only one work written so far for the ship. While AO3 has none. Most fanworks of the ship are manips or fan arts.
