Arikara

Arikara is a red wind serpent who dwelled in Thousand Needles. The tauren believe Arikara to be a spirit of vengeance.

Lakota Windsong asks Horde and Alliance characters to summon Arikara and gain knowledge of where Magatha Grimtotem is hiding. After adventurers freed Magatha from the Twilight's Hammer, Arikara remained by her side.

During the Burning Legion's third Invasion of Azeroth, Arikara was claimed by the Legion and later liberated by Magatha when she and the Farseer of the Earthen Ring attacked the Legion forces in the Darkcloud Pinnacle. Once freed, Arikara aided Magatha against the Legion.

According to Zekhan, some think that Magatha now controls Arikara. Perhaps, Arikara knows Magatha's crimes and is waiting for the right moment to strike.
