Pegasi are found in remote places, for they are typically very shy && wild.
These intelligent winged horses make the swiftest of steeds, and they are often sought for that reason.
Pegasi will serve only good characters, but if they do so, they always serve unto death.
 


A shadow conjured pegasus.

A pegasus fights with its 2wo forehooves and its powerful teeth.


A male specimen can carry weight equal to a medium warhorse (qv), a  equal to a light warhorse.
    <
    light warhorse: 500 / 750
    medium warhorse: 300 / 500
    pegasus: 400 / 650
    note that the figures are given for warhorses, specifically
    no figures are given for light horses, and medium horses
    >
    <note that the light warhorse seems to be able to carry more than the medium warhorse, which doesn't make sense>

If encountered in their lair there will be 1 nest for every pair of pegasi.
There is a 20% chance per nest that there will be 1-2 eggs (30%) ||
young animals (70%) of 20% to 50% maturity.
The eggs are worth 3,000 g.p.,
the young 5,000,
on the open market.

Aerial Combat: 48", class C (class D when mounted).
In flight, pegasi FIGHT with their front hooves.

Riding.Airborne.Pegasus.DMG: Pegasi are greatly valued for their speed,
which makes them virtually the fastest things in the air.
Their training is a long process similar in many respects to that of griffons.
They will serve only good characters -- all others will find them totally intractable.
Like griffons, their loyalty is given to only one master in a lifetime.
 

The pegasus is the sacred animal of Huan Ti, Nike, and Surya.
