Where you hear it

gryphonaggroa.ogg is the screech of the gryphon creature. Gryphons carry Alliance players along flight paths and are ridden by the Wildhammer dwarves of Aerie Peak. The same voice set covers wild gryphons that players can fight. Its screech is sharp and piercing. It cuts through a noisy room.
