* OurMinotaursAreDifferent: Prefers his visage as the Highmountain tauren Ebonhorn, and is the only dragon to be a tauren period.

When the Dragon Isles reawakened, Ebeyssian and Wrathion traveled together and discovered Neltharion's hidden legacy; the Drakthyr. The two black dragons acted as guides to integrate the drakthyr with the modern world, with Ebyssian introducing some of the Drakthyr to the Horde while also warning the Horde of the Primalist threat.

* LateArrivalSpoiler: Ebonhorn's identity as a black dragon was a secret in ''Legion'' to players. By ''Dragonflight'', three expansions later, Ebyssian's true identity is known to everyone, and he serves as the Drakthyr's guide to joining the Horde.

* BladeOnAStick: Wields a spear as her primary weapon, just as Huln Highmountain wielded Talonclaw.

When the Dragon Isles reawakened, Beyssian and Wrathion traveled together and discovered Neltharion's hidden legacy; the Drakthyr. The two black dragons acted as guides to integrate the drakthyr with the modern world, with Ebyssian introducing some of the Drakthyr to the Horde while also warning the Horde of the Primalist threat.

* AchillesInHisTent: Accused of this by Emberthal in 10.0.7, who says that Ebonhorn was so busy being a Tauren and cowering in isolation in Highmountain that he forgot what it meant to be a dragon, a point that he concedes because he was so ashamed of his heritage as one of Deathwing's sons he only want to be thought of a member of the Highmountain tribe. After the "Return to the Forbidden Reach" storyline however, he resolves to change this and do what he can to help the Dragons and the Dracthyr, ready to rejoin the world as Ebyssian, son of the Earth Warder, instead of just Spiritwalker Ebonhorn.

* MoralityPet: For Wrathion, as he is the only black dragon that Wrathion considers to be his brother, even posting one of his agents to make sure he is safe from N'Zoth.

* DefectorFromDecadence: Some Bloodtotem members refused Torokk's call to drink the demon blood and join the Legion, while it was assumed they were either killed or tortured, refugees showed up shortly before they became playable to justify playable Highmountain being able to have Bloodtotem tattoos.

While he was born without his father's corruption, his natural closeness to the Earth element still makes him more vulnerable to their whispers than most. When he leaves Highmountain with Mayla to attend a feast in Thunder Bluff, protective wards installed by Huln weaken, and he becomes comatose. Baine Bloodhoof and the player character spirit him back to Highmountain, and combat the Necrodark, a clan of Drogbar corrupted by N'Zoth. When the final confrontation comes, Ebonhorn sheds his guise to do battle with a giant C'Thraxxi, and slays it. The wards restored, Ebonhorn returns to his post in Highmountain.

* OurMinotaursAreDifferent: Prefers his guise as the Highmountain tauren Ebonhorn, and is the only dragon to be a tauren period.

* ALoadOfBull: Prefers his guise as the Highmountain tauren Ebonhorn, and is the only dragon to be a tauren period.

* ALoadOfBull: They're still Tauren, through-and-through, with the only difference being that they have moose-like antlers instead of normal Tauren horns.
