The Andravida Horse
also known as the Eleia Horse
The Andravida is a breed of horse the originates from Greece. It is an ancient breed currently in danger of extinction, if it is not already. It is rumored that Alexander the Great rode an Andravida into battle. It is a light draft breed, whose ancestors were cavalry horses in ancient Greece. They are a versatile, strong, well built horse.average height is 14-16hh
Stocky, powerful legs and a deep muscular chest.
[Nonius] X [Anglo-Norman]
Traditional colors are black, bay, dun, chestnut, buckskin, roan, red and palomino.
Physical: Rectangular-shaped head; long ears; straight profile; heavily-set, broad chest; slightly dipped back; well-sloped shoulders; gentle croup and stocky, powerful legs.
**I have also seen pictures of these horses with roman noses which I think look quite cool, especially in game
They are used as riding and working horses. In real life they are not found outside a small island in Greece and are in danger of becoming extinct.
In real life as well, some of these horses were crossed with Arabians to create a lighter version of the breed.
Goals
Overall improvement of the breedThis was the first Andravida horse in the game as far as I can tell. Most (although not all) of the Andravida horses I have now are descended from her.
