The Torden is a rare breed of horse recently gaining international popularity for its history, manner, and all around abilities. Despite popular belief, this horse is not a mule but rather a selectively bred horse that can lead its pure bloodline down to when a small tribe of Vikings first bred them. Initially used to pull carts and plows, the Vikings soon discovered the sure footed, calm, and gentle temperament of these horses made for great mounts. Their savvy intelligence and nearly unspookable nature helped this small tribe soon become a booming force both in Combat and agriculturally. It wasn't long before what was now called the Torden horse to become a sought after breed for many surrounding Norse tribes. The decline of the species came when cross breeding of Dole bloodlines became popular, creating the Fjord and the Icelandic horse for more compact and smooth gaited horses more suited for long travel.
The Torden recently was revived when a group of conservationists came together and began recreating the species through selective breeding and maintaining a very detailed log. Now that the more modern breed has been revived, it has come to the attention of many horse ranches and show competitions. Their gentle nature still remains intact, very eager to work and please makes them perfect for any form of riding competition, and a sure footed, stoic breed that cannot be spooked. They stand between 13.1hh at the smallest to 15hh at the tallest and weighing in between 900lbs-1200lbs, making them a rather compact yet strong breed of horse. Their coat colors range in color and rarity, though most commonly they will be seen sporting a buckskin or dun coat. Main Page (Here) ||
