Rakhsh (رخش)

Rostam's legendary war-horse of extraordinary strength and loyalty who saved his master's life on multiple occasions. Rakhsh never allowed anyone but Rostam to ride him. Found by Rostam in Zabulistan, Rakhsh was chosen for his power and beauty. He accompanied Rostam on all Seven Labors. Rakhsh lived a long life, protected by divine favor, but finally died alongside Rostam due to the treason of Shaghad, Rostam's half-brother.
