F&F: Official mounts thread

[KuKulzA]

so, let us discuss mounts...

for mounts in TES4 there are already horses.... well as you well know, horse don't live well in Morrowind since Dunmer consider it a delicacy and the ashlands are real bad for the horses.... they probably can't handle the native plants and fungi either as they evolved separately... but sure, take your horse anywhere but the ashlands and he'll do alright... that is IF you can find a horse, dunmer eat them
so... likely new mounts are:
Guars :check:
Durzogs
Nix-hounds

now, Durzogs aren't native, but the goblins shipped in by Helseth, some have shipwrecked on the mainland and on Vvardenfell... and logn with them are Durzogs... I understand they'd fit better in an Orsinium / Wrothgarian Mts. mod, but it's an idea...
as for nix-hounds, most Dunmer see them as just wild beasts (like wolves) or sacred (supposedly created by Vivec)... but Ashlanders don't give a damn for Vivec and wouldn't mind taming nix-hounds for hunting and riding and war...
as for Guar, well they are a well known pack-animal and good for riding long distances, like a big strong donkey... not great for battle as they aren't as deadly as Durzog or Nix but the are strong and steady, and most people would ride them in, dismount and fight.... don't wanna get your prized guar killed right?

so anyhow, lets organize Guar mounts... some are wild, some are for herding, but some are made to be ridden... and these will be in various colors etc. but... I was thinking for the fully domesticated kinds... three different kinds of unrideable pack guars that would carry goods, and 3 riding kinds.... and oh yeah, the Rotumbo Guar is a different breed of Guar that is actually more like a relative (other relatives are Alits and Kagouti)
Pack Guar
---(carrying Barrels, carrying Urn, and carrying jars)
Riding Guar
---(striped, regular, Rotumbo)

I expect that Nix-hounds will only be able to be "acquired" at ashlander camps, and they ar too fiesty to carry your stuff, but if you have it trained you can mount it...
as for Durzogs.... well it would be nice to have rideble Durzogs, but as I said before, that doesn't belong AS MUCH as Nixes and Guars





so I guess the real thin gto debate is Durzogs and Nixs as it is understood that Guars are cool and mountable
