Difference between revisions of "Ryshadium"

The '''Ryshadium''' was a type or breed of horse on [[Roshar]].{{ref|b|twoksa1|c|12}}

Ryshadium were known for being larger, faster, and possessing greater stamina than other breeds of horse.{{ref|b|twoksa1|c|12}} They were also generally considered to be more intelligent than other horses with their owners at least occasionally assuming that they were sentient.{{ref|b|twoksa1|c|15}} Furthermore, they were known for choosing, and only obeying, a particular rider.{{ref|b|twoksa1|c|12}} There were only a dozen men throughout the warcamps that were chosen by Ryshadiums.

[[Dalinar]] and [[Adolin]] were among these with their Ryshadium stallions [[Gallant]] and [[Sureblood]].{{ref|b|twoksa1|c|12}}

Though Ryshadiums were stronger and more intelligent than normal horses, Shardbearers sometimes unmounted because they didn't want to endanger them in close attacks.{{ref|b|twoksa1|c|68}}

Gallant showed his special closeness to Dalinar in the [[Battle of the Tower]] when he charged through the lines towards [[Dalinar]] when he was attacked by the Parshendi Shardbearer.{{ref|b|twoksa1|c|68}}
