This horse has 8 legs instead of 4, giving him extraordinary abilities. The Sleipnir are Divine and immortal horses. They can have various coat colors.

                                                                                  The Sleipnir may be invoked: if a player who owns a Sleipnir fails to take care of it for 7 consecutive days, or if the player has not logged on for 30 days, the Sleipnir runs away. In such a case, other owners of a Sleipnir may retrieve it, since an invocation link appears on their own Sleipnir's page. The Sleipnir belongs to the player who manages to invoke it.

                                                                                  How to Obtain: Sleipnir were originally able to be won from the 2008 Howrse Cards (No longer available by this method). All Sleipnir nowadays are obtained from various Howrse Promotions.

                                                                                  Other information: Ruby's diamonds function as special tokens that can be used to improve his skills and/or the skills of his brother, the Divine Sapphire.

                                                                                  Picture
                                                                                  Name: Sapphire

                                                                                  Type: Divine

                                                                                  Description: Sapphire is a precious horse. Each time he wakes up, he asks you to come and join him on another player's page.

                                                                                  If you follow his instructions, Sapphire gives you a diamond on even days and 1000 equus on odd days.

                                                                                  How to Obtain: Originally obtained during the Potion Event of 2011 - you needed to make 30 other potions, then make Sapphire's potion. The recipe was as follows:

                                                                                  15 x Horseshoe
                                                                                  5 x Pegasus Feather
                                                                                  15 x Ingredient of your choice.

                                                                                  Now the only way to obtain them is from various Howrse Promotions.

                                                                                  Sellable: Only to the Safe Haven for 400e

                                                                                  Additional Information: Similar to Ruby - Sapphire gives his owner a Diamond on the even days, and 1,000e on the odd days but only if you follow his instruction.

                                                                                  His instruction will appear in his Actions Box and will say the following:

                                                                                  Sapphire is waiting for you the player's page PLAYER

                                                                                  Simply copy down the player's name into the directory and go to it. You will then find a message at the top of the page saying:

                                                                                  Sapphire
                                                                                  By finding Sapphire, you have won a 1 000/Diamond!

                                                                                  Note that if you do NOT care for him the day before - the name of the player he wants you to visit will NOT change. Sapphire is also the second largest horse on the game, beaten only by his brother the Divine Ruby.

                                                                                  Picture
                                                                                  Right now there is no Topaz on Howrse
                                                                                  But since there is a picture of a baby Topaz it mush have divine parents and they must of bred to have Topaz. Sapphire right now can offer coverings so that might be the sire but the dam is not certain.

                                                                                  Picture

                                                                                  Emerald

                                                                                  Picture
                                                                                  There is also rumors of Emerald
                                                                                  Lots of people say it will be a girl when it gets introduced to Howrse and then will breed with Sapphire to produce Ruby but we will have to wait to find out if that is right.

                                                                                  Create a free website with Weebly Photo used under Creative Commons from Aschaf
