[2026 Jan 28 15:13] [OOC Aeriella] If someone wants to sling some night vision
the way of horses I won't mind as long as they also update all of the other
equine races
[2026 Jan 28 15:14] [OOC Zygefgh] horse, pegasus, fey horse (might already
have it?), kentaur, what else?

hippopithecid, hippouranos, pegasus, pony, avigraal, sleipnir, epona, darad
shi, and kentaur
[2026 Jan 28 15:14] [OOC Zygefgh] wtf is a hoppopithecid
[2026 Jan 28 15:14] [OOC Aeriella] idk which all of them already have night
vision.
[2026 Jan 28 15:15] [OOC Zygefgh] epona is a god that pretends to be a horse,
I bet they have NV
[2026 Jan 28 15:15] [OOC Aeriella] apparently it's a horse body with a monkey
torso on both ends.
[2026 Jan 28 15:15] [OOC Vultan] epoma has nv
[2026 Jan 28 15:15] [OOC Zygefgh] ew wtf
[2026 Jan 28 15:15] [OOC Zygefgh] is that based off a real thing, or did
someone do too much acid
[2026 Jan 28 15:16] [OOC Zygefgh] 2 hits on google, both LS
[2026 Jan 28 15:16] [OOC Aeriella] This monstrous-looking creature has the
lower body of a chestnut-coated pony and the upper body of a black-haired
monkey with gray eyes at either end, each above a tail.  Sprouting from the
sides of her pony torso are four additional monkey arms.
[2026 Jan 28 15:16] [OOC Eithne] lol
[2026 Jan 28 15:16] [OOC Zygefgh] Double-Ended Four-Extra-Armed Kentauroid
[2026 Jan 28 15:16] [OOC Zygefgh] what the actual christ Chaos
[2026 Jan 28 15:16] [OOC Zygefgh] credit Jonathan Coulton
[2026 Jan 28 15:17] [OOC Zygefgh] he's a musician - ok yeah that's acid
[2026 Jan 28 15:17] [OOC Eithne] "You recognize it as an enchanted Great Ring
of Insight bearing a working that will increase the wearer's vitality slightly
while it remains in effect." Hmmm
[2026 Jan 28 15:17] [OOC Zygefgh] hm
[2026 Jan 28 15:17] [OOC Eithne] Insight into being swole?
[2026 Jan 28 15:19] [OOC Flix] can a hoppopithecid be a shifter?! I'm in
eriella] apparently this is inspired by
"Skullcrusher Mountain":

[2026 Jan 28 15:21] [OOC Aeriella] I made this half-pony, half-monkey monster
to please you / But I get the feeling that you don't like it / What's with all
the screaming? / You like monkeys, you like ponies / Maybe you don't like
monsters so much / Maybe I used too many monkeys / \Isn't it enough to know
that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?
[2026 Jan 28 15:21] [OOC Eithne] Some things are best left inside the noggin.
[2026 Jan 28 15:21] [OOC Flix lol]
[2026 Jan 28 15:24] [OOC Aeriella] Dang these things have 31 different limbs.
[2026 Jan 28 15:24] [OOC Aeriella] That's almost shoggoth calibur
[2026 Jan 28 15:25] [OOC Eithne] But without all the nonsense of having to
create the limbs individually or whatever shogs do.
[2026 Jan 28 15:25] [OOC Aummius] Interesting that it has *two* monkey torsos,
but just one is a monkey-kentaur
[2026 Jan 28 15:26] [OOC Aeriella] Sort of doubt we'll see one of these in
production.
[2026 Jan 28 15:27] [OOC Aeriella] Although Eponae are apparently sovereign
over them so if one does pop up and someone has an epona bond they'll be able
to tame it potentially
