Nightmare

Nightmares are black horses with red eyes, and either bright orange or flaming manes or tails. Nightmares are much faster than any other horse on land, and they are not used lightly; they are Hell's war horses. They go through rigorous, intense training each day, to prepare them for battle.

Domestication

The process for domesticating a nightmare is the same as hellhounds. Devils must initially be brutal in their breaking in, due to the nightmare's violent and aggressive temperament. However, once the training is completed, they will abstain from further cruelty.
