The special war horses bred on the plane of Niflheim are used by giants and heroes alike. These horses can change their shape to accomodate a rider up to Cloud Giant size. They appear like terrifying war horses covered in ice and frost. Any creature of 1HD or less will have to roll a saving throw vs petrification or be frozen still as long as it remains withing a radius of 30' or the horse. The horse attacks with its hooves or ice breath weapon. It can only breathe once every 3 rounds. The breath weapon does 1d6 dmg per HD of the horse in a 16' line that is 5' wide. No attack roll is made for the breath weapon, but any character caught within the breath can roll a save vs. dragon breath and halve the damage. Niflings sometimes train and use these warhorses.
Destriers: These are elite war horses of the armies of Niflheim.

Carrying Capacity 9,000 cn at full speed. 18,000 cn at half speed.
