Ryyke was my first pet after the initial Hunter quests on my very first hunter ever, a female tauren named Ravenbrook on Cairne. He was a Bloodtalon lashtail in Durotar, and I remember leveling with him from 10 to, oh..... well, 31. Then my account got hacked.
Demonheart and Frisco were on my second account. Demonheart was a Deviate Guardian in the caves before WC's entrance, and I got him on Veilbrook, another female tauren. We leveled for a bit until I dropped him for a Moonstalker runt in Darkshore (very original choice, I know, I know....) he was named for my RL cat, and actually bares a significant resemblance to him, fur-wise. But I missed my Deviate and traded off.
Then, Veilbrook's account was abandoned for a fresh Recruit-a-Friend start, and one level 64 druid later Masaika was born, a female dwarf hunter. Her first pet was a snow tracker wolf from Dun Murogh, the white-and-gray ones. His name was Rule, after the kickass Nature of Nature's art character. Rule accompanied Masaika through Loch Modan until I got Catstep, a brown tallstrider from Darkshore. I had fallen in love with those goofy birds, and also the quirky name I gave her, first invented when I was a lot younger. But, she was dropped for Seazle, a pink raptor from the Barrens (Yes, I love dinosaurs....) and then I replaced Masaika with Theruzan, my current hunter.
I can see some sentimental-ness in the future now. Cyanide (loving this name, LMAO) is Theruzan's Venomous Cloud Serpent from Thousand Needles. I wanted to get her the white serpent skin, but after being killed by Hordies a few times, I had lost track of the one I was stalking
However! I found a replacement. Petopia says the minimum level for the Venomous serpents in 1KN is 28--LIES! Cy was 26 when I tamed her. Theru died a few times while stalking her, because of all the hyenas and prowling cats getting in the way, but I am now the triumphant owner of one of the least original wind serpent skins. And I'm quite proud of my Cyanide.I plan on getting one of those frost chimaeras in Winterspring when I learn the Exotic talent. Just so I can name him Sylvester. I love that name.
Well, my wall of a post is over, and if you actually read the whole thing then I'm touched someone would bother listening to my raving
