Cho-Hag was the King of Algaria, and is also called Chief of the Clan Chiefs and was featured in The Belgariad and The Malloreon.

When Cho-Hag was a child he contracted an illness that left his legs so weak that he cannot stand up unaided, dispite this, when he is as skilled on horse-back as any Algar warrior. He had no heirs of his own, but adopted a son named Hettar after finding him as a boy when he was left for dead by Murogs. Hettar turned out to be a Sha-Dar, someone with the telepathic ability to communicate with horses. At the Battle of Thull Mardu, Cho-Hag faced down his hereditary enemy Taur Urgas, the King of the Murgos, and slew him. In King of the Murgos, King Urgit expressed how eternally grateful he is to him for it.
