Pegasus Knight

Pegasus Knights of Bretonnia

The richest and greatest Knights of the Realm ride to war atop the back of a majestic Pegasus. Most Pegasus Knights hail from around the border city of Parravon, hard on the slopes of the Grey Mountains where many of their noble mounts can be found. These creatures are difficult to capture and harder still to train, but once they are they make loyal and powerful mounts. Accordingly, to own such a beast is the ultimate symbol of wealth and success for their owners, but in truth a Pegasus is also a great practical boon for any knight fortunate enough to acquire one.

A Pegasus is stronger and faster than even the mightiest warhorse, easily able to crush a man’s skull with its flailing hooves and cover great distances swiftly. Indeed, in the more wild and inaccessible domains of Bretonnia there is real merit to a steed that is not prone to becoming mired in mud or entangled in thorns. On the battlefield, small groups of Pegasus Knights will group together, often outstripping the rest of the army as they search for honorable combat.

Those superhuman Grail Knights who own a Peagasus, can form into elite groups known as "Royal Pegasus Knights".
