'''Earthcaller Ryga''' is a level 63 [[Mag'har]] [[orc]] located at [[Mag'har Post]] in the [[contested]] territory of [[Hellfire Peninsula]]. Before [[patch 4.0.1]] she started the [[Quest:A Debilitating Sickness]] and [[Quest:Administering the Salve]].

The '''hawkstrider''' is the [[blood elf|blood elves']] racial mount. It was formerly called a [[cockatrice]] but was later changed, though that mythical beast remains the inspiration for the hawkstrider. Due to their apparent similarity to the [[wikipedia:Chocobo|Chocobo]]s (giant, yellow, flightless, rideable birds) from the Final Fantasy games, Hawkstriders are sometimes referred to as Chocobos, only lacking the true Chocobo's yellow plumage and relatively large beak, compared to the Hawkstrider's thin beak.

==External links==
As their name implies, hawkstriders resemble other members of the [[tallstrider]] family, though their plumage is both larger and more vibrant. They come in a variety of bright colors and have a thin, curved beak and burning orange eyes. Epic versions include decorative armor on the chest and head.

{{DEFAULTSORT:Ryga, Earthcaller}}
The hawkstrider's movements exhibit the same rhythmic, back-and-forth motion which characterizes the other two-legged mounts. They appear to be a heavily modified tallstrider model, but they possess a wildly different looking exterior and a unique standing-jump and running animation.

According to [[Lands of Conflict]], [[dragonhawk]]s are used as ground based transportation until they are old enough to fly.{{fact}} A dragonhawk has both avian and reptillian features, as does the typical rendition of a cockatrice, hinting at a relation between the two. Still, there is little resemblance between the two in-game.
 
 
Hawkstriders can be purchased at [[Thuron's Livery]], just outside [[Silvermoon City]].
