Sleipnir was created when the evil trickster god, Loki, disguised himself as a mare and mated with a stallion. Sleipnir now serves Odin, the All father, as a trusted companion and mounts. Combined with its incredible speed and ability to teleport, Sleipnir is quite possibly the greatest mount in all the multi-verse.

Sleipnir stands 6 ft. tall at the shoulder and is 12 ft long. He weighs close to 3,000 pounds. He does not speak, but understands all languages, having traveled throughout the planes for centuries.

Combat: Sleipnir loves to charge its foes repeatedly until they die. If he feels he is out numbered, he’ll immediately teleport away.

Hoof Flurry (Ex): Whenever Sleipnir successfully strikes a creature with 3 or more of its hooves, that creature must succeed a Fortitude save DC 43 or be knocked prone for 1d8 + 2 rounds. DC is Strength-based.

Lightning Speed Charge (Ex): Sleipnir charges at such high speeds that he is hard to touch. When Sleipnir charges, he receives no penalty to AC. Instead he gains a +5 Dodge bonus to AC, while charging. He deals 4d6 + 30 points of damage plus 1 point of damage for every 10 ft. travelled.

Spell-like Abilities: CL 36; DC 15 + spell level

At will – greater teleport, haste, plane shift

3/day – quickened greater teleport

Trample (Ex): Sleipnir deals 2d6 + 22 points of damage when trampling foes with his hooves. Reflex save DC 43 halves damage. DC is Strength-based.
