This item is a reward from the Dungeons & Raids achievement  Heroic: Glory of the Ulduar Raider. This mount is a 310% speed mount.

Letter from Brann

The mount is attached to a letter from the renowned dwarf explorer Brann Bronzebeard, and reads as follows:

Heroic: Glory of the Ulduar Raider

Dear <name>,

I hope ye're doing well and that ye've had time to recover from our shennanigans in Ulduar.

Me lads from the prospecting team happened upon this poor 'alf dead riding-drake hatchling. Must've been an Iron Dwarf experiment of some sort.

We've patched him back to health and you'll find he's not so wee anymore! None of us knows much about riding anything but rams and pack mules and since we owed ye one for what ye did back there... we thought perhaps you'd accept him as a gift.

Yours,
Brann Bronzebeard

Notes

Blizzard officials have announced they will not remove the proto-drake reward in Patch 3.2.0.

Glory of the Ulduar Raider Reward Changes | 2008-06-22 09:06| Bornakk
The rusted and ironbound proto-drake rewards for the  normal and heroic  Glory of the Ulduar Raider meta achievements will be removed at a future date. We currently do not have an exact date they will be taken out, but it is possible they will be removed when patch 3.2 comes out or at some point after that. When we do decide to remove these mounts we will provide about 1 month of warning so players will have time to make some final attempts.

Glory of the Ulduar Raider Reward Update | 2009-07-22 17:04| Eyonix
After further discussion, we decided not to remove the [rusted] and ironbound proto-drake rewards for the  normal and  heroic Glory of the Ulduar Raider meta achievements when patch 3.2, Call of the Crusade, launches, and currently have no plans to remove them in the foreseeable future. However, we will continue to evaluate the situation and if a decision is made to remove these rewards at any point in the future, we'll provide a one month warning so players will have time to make some final attempts.
