Horses of Ansalon
There have been minor instances where information has been given
about the horses a character may ride, beyond their name, color,
and possibly their disposition. That is, until I read the novel
Renegade Wizards by Lucien Souldban. Here he denotes differences
between horse breeds, such as the Abanasinian Bay Horses, the
Qwermish Heavy Horse, the Northern Dairy horse breed, and the
Blӧdegeld Stout Horses from the Blӧde and
Blӧdehelm region.
Now, I am not a horse person, but I am a person who pays
attention to Dragonlance lore and details about the world. Of
course, I possess DRAGON #191 that covers Horse traits and other
useful bits of Horse information for the use of coloring the
gaming experience.
Still, this new bit of information about regional types of
Ansalonian Horse Breeds from this novel has caught my attention.
I have listed out a small number of horse breeds from the novel,
and those that we already know of, and their implied strengths
for what they are known for. I believe the list is far from
complete, and I post here in the hopes that the more eyes and
input on this project, the better it has the potential to
become.
Horses in are not usually broken down by origin of breed but
rather by use. This led them to be described, for example, as
"chargers" (warhorses), "palfreys" (riding horses), cart horses,
or packhorses.
This, combined with a list of known breed types and origin,
gives us a rounded Horse for a PC
