Pegasus (species)

Pegasi are winged horses. They have been known to come in a variety of colours from white, black, brown and even mixed colours (ex: brown and white). They are named after the original Pegasus and are his offspring. The most notable Pegasus in the series is Whirlwind, Arthur Davies' storm grey Pegasus.
== History ==
The name Pegasus (plural Pegasi) comes from the Greek word for spring. Legend tells how the first Pegasus sprang from the neck of the Gorgon Medusa slain by the demigod Perseus. He was the son of Medusa and Poseidon, and wherever his hoof struck the ground, a spring flowed. The Pegasus flew to Olympus and brought thunderbolts to Zeus.
