We need some strong horses that aren't 'evil'. : V

We have two acceptable horses in skyrim at the moment:

Spoiler

Shadowmere, given to you during the dark brotherhood questline, so isn't acceptable for 'good' characters.

Spoiler

Arvak, the undead flaming horse from dawnguard. Not particularly evil, but it doesn't look right for 'good' characters IMO.

Why can't we just have the equivalent to the first horse in the spoiler tag for good characters? Think gandalf's horse in lord of the rings, or even just a normal look brown horse that has the ability to take a hit.

WHAT. You're kidding me! I WANTED DAWNGUARD SO I COULD GET A NOT EVIL HORSE. ;_; Damnit, Bethesda! Don't get a spiky things fetish! Don't be Games Workshop!

You have Frost.

Arvak isn't necessarily evil, you find his skull in the soul cairn, then you have the ability to summon him in Tamriel. He just doesn't look right for good characters though, it's an undead flaming horse.

You have Frost.

That's not an option, the quest is too buggy. I don't think frost is any stronger than normal horses anyway, which are too weak.

Ghost undead, or skeleton undead?

Pretty much both.

Look at the dawnguard trailer. Or google 'dawnguard arvak'.

Ugh. Lame. Lame lame lame lame.

Guess I'll have to keep using horse protection mods.

Don't be Games Workshop!

As long as my beloved blood angels are still sleek, I shall find this funny.

If they made them spikey I might have a small cry....

You have Frost.

Just read up on it, he's level 25 compared to the normal horses level 4. He has more health and stamina, but you do have to complete the buggy quest to get him.

You also have to be kind of a jerk to get him.

Doesn't exactly fit in well with a 'good character'.

Maven isn't exactly good herself though, stealing from her wouldn't be the worst thing. I could probably justify that on one of my characters.

It's just the prospect of having 300 louis letrush outside Whiterun.
