Rolton mounts released at Rumor Woods as part of a new Year of the Rolton Theme for 2023. Mounts are summoned by a summoning item, such as reins, which store their information, but are considered a separate item. There were three tiers released: common, uncommon, and rare. All rolton mounts share a similar setup with their appearance.
Appearance
Small-pupilled, brown eyes dominate the wide face of the sheep, while short ears rest upon his noble brow at an angle, leaving room for curved horns with dark rings. His fluffy body is covered in solid cream fleece, which trails across his back and culminates in a short tail.
CommonCommon mounts are the least expensive option when considering purchase. They are limited in alteration options that may be allowed through the Ostler.
