Create Mount

Regular
Create a stupid but obedient mount on which to ride while it exists.
It can also be used as a draft animal. The mount’s traits are equivalent to a pony (p. B460), but the caster sets its appearance at casting time; it can be a horse, camel, dolphin, dwarf elephant, huge ostrich, or anything else the GM agrees to (use the Create Animal guidelines). The mount can only understand very simple spoken commands, such as stop, go, left, right, about face, etc. It is under the GM’s control and cannot fight or handle confusing situations; it has no skills. Faced with danger, it will whimper, bolt, or simply vanish.
The caster may also choose to create a Brute mount with ST 35, a Winged mount with Move 7/14, a Racing mount with Move 18, or a War-
Trained mount that remains calm in dangerous situations and can be ordered to trample or attack.

Duration: 1 hour.
Cost: 8 to cast. 3 to maintain. Double the cost for a Brute mount, a Winged mount, a War-Trained mount, or a Racing mount. Triple the cost for a Winged Racing mount, etc.
Time to cast: 3 seconds.
Prerequisites: Magery 3 and Create Animal.
