Let's Ride!

Made for the Savage Worlds #FFFFebruary2026 Creator Jam!

A feller's horse can be swift mode of transportation and a hardy beast of burden to haul wagons or perform other essential tasks.  But, for many, it is a lot more than that. One’s faithful horse can be an ally, a faithful companion on long treks—and sometimes a crucial lifeline in times of imminent danger.

Famous horses like Silver (The Lone Ranger), The Black Stallion, Artax (The Neverending Story), and Roach (The Witcher series) had personalities, unique qualities, and a relationship with the heroes that rode them.

These rules are designed for groups that would like their player characters’ horses to be more than a notation in their Gear section, but a companion with personality and temperament. They work with useful Edges such as Beast Master, treating horses as allied Extras with personalities of their own, and providing a way to measure the ever-changing connection between a horse and its rider.
