Rostam

The Champion of Seven Trials

The towering champion of Persia's Shahnameh, Rostam wielded prodigious strength atop his loyal steed Rakhsh. He endured the legendary Seven Labors to rescue his king, slaying lions, demons, and the dread White Div in the dark of a cavern. Tragically, in unknowing combat he struck down his own son Sohrab, a grief that shadowed all his immortal deeds.
