Apocalypse horses are the greatest nightmares that serve as mounts of the Four Horsemen. Only four exist at any time: the white horse of Pestilence, the pale horse of Death, the red horse of War, and the black horse of Famine.[1][2]
Appearance
Ecology
While most of the time used as mounts by their masters, apocalypse horses have been seen lent to their favoured daemonic or mortal servitors. They have also been known to travel outside Abaddon on their own, often as a precursor to more direct attention to a world from the Horsemen. Intrinsically linked to their riders, apocalypse horses cannot die in their presence.[1]
Chloros
Grace of the Flame
Halflight
Halflight, Trelmarixian's Black Horse, looks particularly emaciated, with its midnight flesh clinging to and showing the relief of its skeleton. Its body seems to tremble and shake as it moves, and its eyes glow with the colour of Abaddon's sky. Trelmarixian rarely makes use of Halflight; whenever he rides it, he 'fuses' with the horse and is vomited out from its orifices at the destination.[1][5]
Septisaeus
Septisaeus, Apollyon's White Horse, looks filthy and festering, covered with rancid sores dripping pus and squirming with maggots. Its neck is punctured with arrows, and it wears a crown marked with Apollyon's symbol.[1][6]
