A pony is represented by the letter u. Throw a pony a treat like a carrot, apple, or a slime mold (but not an orange), and it will become tame (your pet). Pet ponies can be saddled and ridden, giving the player the speed of the pony. Horses and Warhorses are especially fast.

Ponies grow into horses and then into warhorses, the most powerful form.
