Enables skill in the assessment judgment and the practice of selective breeding of horses. The study incorporates the method by which specially desired characteristics in domesticated horses are improved through their offspring, granting also a superior skill in ensuring a healthy pregnancy and successful foaling. The character is able to recognize the pedigree of horses upon examination, determining with sight and skill those characteristics that make a specific horse a good candidate for breeding. This knowledge is then applied when inducing a stallion and a mare to couple and reproduce — not only so that their pre-existing traits can be shared by the offspring, but also to ensure the highest possible chance of a giving pairing producing a positive-mutation.

Pedigree

For game purposes, the pedigree of horses is simplified for the purpose of playability. Every horse is scaled according to its health, robustness, speed, courage and fertility. Health registers the number of hit points; robustness, the overall strength and endurance of the horse as a working animal; speed, its value as a racehorse; courage, its temperament when exposed to combat; and fertility, the ease with which it procreates and the chances of it producing a positive mutation.

All horses, wild or domestic, already have specific characteristics relating to their type.
