Eli Thunderstrike

Eli Thunderstrike is a Wildhammer dwarf who lives in Wildhammer Stronghold, in Outland's Shadowmoon Valley. Thunderstrike is the keeper of Sky'ree, the legendary gryphon of the equally-legendary gryphon rider Kurdran Wildhammer. Thunderstrike tends to the gryphon while Kurdran tends to business at the Stronghold.

Cataclysm
Eli accompanied Kurdran to Ironforge where he continued to take care of the now sick Sky'ree. He was present when she and her two eggs burned. He then found a gryphon with an egg which belonged to Sky'ree. He immediately showed the final egg to Kurdran.
