Horse mounts were the first type of mount introduced at Rumor Woods as part of a new mount system. Mounts are summoned by a summoning item, such as reins, which stores their information, but are considered a separate item. There were three tiers released: common, uncommon, and rare. All horse mounts share a similar set up with their appearance.
Appearance
He/she stands just 16 hands at the withers. He has a well-muscled body with a healthy dun coat. He has a square face, a short forelock, and pointed ears. He has a long mane that flows loose down his neck and a full black tail.
Common
Common mounts are the least expensive option when considering purchase. They are restricted to being just "horse", and are limited in alteration options that may be allowed through the Ostler.Usage

AppearanceWhite UnicornThis section has not been added yet; please add to it now! Black UnicornFrom muzzle to tail, the unicorn is an uncompromising shade of black with a blue-violet sheen resembling that found on a raven's wing. His eyes are onyx-hued, flecked with bits of silver so delicate they seem little more than curls of metallic leafing. His mane and tail are long and silky, and the tufts on his fetlocks bear the same lustrous coloring common to corvids. A subtle shimmer of silver glints in the natural keratinous formation of his hooves, and his horn is a matte-finished argent spiral. Usage
