Sharpbeak is a gryphon assisting the Wildhammer clan in the Hinterlands after being rescued from Vilebranch trolls. He is the son and heir of Swiftwing and Keenclaw who are all part of the Wildhammer fleet. According to Gryphon Master Talonaxe, he is destined to lead their next generation of gryphons.

History

World of Warcraft

Sharpbeak in a cage prior to the Cataclysm.

This section concerns content related to the original World of Warcraft.

He has recently been captured by the Vilebranch trolls, but Gryphon Master Talonaxe of Aerie Peak, with the help of Thadius Grimshade, sent Alliance adventurers to save him in Jintha'Alor from Vile Priestess Hexx. He returned to Aerie Peak where he lives happily with his parents, Swiftwing and Keenclaw.

Cataclysm

This section concerns content related to Cataclysm.

This creature can be mounted.

Sharpbeak no longer needs saving and is now a powerful fully matured elite gryphon. Found in the same location as before, he appears to be assisting the Wildhammer dwarves in an attack on the Vilebranch trolls.

Dragonflight

This section concerns content related to Dragonflight.

Sharpbeak found a rider in Sheridon Hastle and with him joined the Dragonscale Expedition on the joint Alliance-Horde scientific study of the Dragon Isles. Unfortunately at some point after entering the Zaralek Cavern below the isles, Sheridon was killed by djaradin of the Zaqali tribe. This sent Sharpbeak into mourning to the point of refusing to eat, until an adventurer (possibly the very same who once saved him from the Vilebranch) helped to comfort him.^{[citation needed]}
