The Jorvik Wild Horse!

Hi StarFam! This week, a very special horse has found its way to Valedale!

Introducing the Jorvik Wild Horse!

A rarely seen horse has emerged from the woods north of Mistfall. It’s the Jorvik Wild Horse, who’s looking for a rider to bond with!

The Jorvik Wild Horse is the oldest known horse breed to wander upon Jorvik, and as far as anyone can tell the horses of this breed look the same way they did hundreds of years back. Maybe its close connection to Pandoric energy is the reason for the stalled evolution? The Jorvik Wild Horse may have any coat color, some still undiscovered by any equestrian not native to Jorvik. The coat color may be of help when figuring out the origins of the horse, as different markings are more prominent in specific wild herds. For example, one herd is known for an almost magical blue tint in their coats, and the most famous horse from said herd is no other than Lisa Peterson’s horse Starshine. Unlike the magical horses of Jorvik though, the color of their coats never changes.

This primal horse has never been domesticated nor bred in captivity, but they have been known to approach humans of their liking to allow a bond to form. To be allowed to ride a Jorvik Wild Horse is a true honor - do you have what it takes to befriend one?

Not only is this horse very special for the Jorvegian lore, but it can also do something no horse has done on Jorvik before...

Buckle up for the Jorvik Wild Horse! #JorvikGoneWild

What about the old Jorvik Wild Horses?

We have previously presented you with horses by the name of Jorvik Wild Horses, which actually are magical horses who change the color of their coat depending on their location on Jorvik. The Jorvik Wild horse does not change their coat colors, which sets them apart from magical horses!
