*Can be [[Animal taming|tamed]] with [[seeds]].
*[[Mounts|Ride-able]] with 21 [[Body Control]] (has to be either led or tame for this).
*Poor Climber. Horses can ride be ridden up and down a straight 30 slope rampor anywhere the sum of two neighbouring sides of a tile do not exceed 30. *When riding down 20+ slopes the rider will not receive "ouches" like when walking.
*Wild horses (those that merely spawn somewhere in the wild) are grey. Bred horses come in one of 5 known colour types: Black, white, grey, brown, gold.
*Bred horses have individual (but not unique) names randomly chosen at birth.
*As mounts will go neither up nor down slopes over a certain max, it can be wise to ride to avoid falling off mountains
*Being mounted provides a very substantial advantage in combat. It's usually much easier to kill a strong mob (or other opponent) when riding.
*Mounts are unaffected by the rider's stamina and health. Therefore riding makes it possible to retreat from combat regardless of despite low stamina/critical wounds.*Riding a fast mount is often the only way of succesfully escaping some of the faster mobs (like aged trolls or crocs), especially when carrying loads above a bare minimum.*Riding allows the rider to carry heavy loads without coming to a near complete stop.
