Corvan Sonipes

This massive horse stands tall and proud, its rippling musculature evident through the sheen of its black coat. Its mane has a black stripe running through the center with snow-white edges, which have been trimmed to create a pattern not unlike the battlements of a castle wall.

After their conquest of Arcadia, the Corvans turned the agrarian and husbandry prowess of the Arcadians to beasts of war. They bid the region's most famed breeders to begin refining the fastest, strongest, most disciplined steed they could, offering both a generous monetary grant and the magical resources of the Imperium. The end product of these efforts was the Corvan Sonipes, a breed of warhorse that stood quite clearly above all others. To own a Sonipes is as much a status symbol in the Imperium (especially amongst the Corvans) as it is a boon on the battlefield.
Sonipes stand at 6 ft. tall at the withers and weigh 2,000 lbs.
