Behavior

Trample
"While lighter in weight than other Equins (mainly due to the amount of flesh that has rotted off), the Thestral can still cause great harm by trampling over their foes."
-Damage: 4 (Average/high Impact damage) linear...
-Defensive: None...
-Range: Short, but attacks in a linear fashion so it will injure all foes within a line of attack.

Plague-bearer
Thestrals are undead and so they carry the plague with them that infests all other equin species.

Drops
When killed the monster will drop...
- Infected Meat, probably in best interests not to touch.
- Essence of Undead, allows Necromancers with Deathraise summon to call forth Thestrals.

Description

Taken by the Undead Plague, the Thestrals are horses without souls controlled by the Lich armies. Such infestations like these show how versatile the plague is at adapting to different species, which leads to the possibility that they could one day reinfect the entire world as is accounted in the years of the Ancients. They act much like other horses, only they appear as if they have been dead for weeks or months.

Thestrals have only ever been accounted in Necros, although at one time they were suspected to have crossed into the Centran Desert during the Second Rise of Apochryphai. Although by present day standards, the Thestrals are completely restricted to the upper class creatures of the Undead Plague. They still roam in small herds of the wilds, but rarely numbering any more than five to ten by Svartalfheim survey.

Thestrals are rare, even though their life expectancy is eternal, the amount that reach the full undead barrier is not very high. Some estimate from Dark Elf accounts that Thestrals only number in the hundreds. They themselves are not incredibly threatening except to equins, since their infestation does not effect other creatures.
