CW ANTHRACITE DB
I'm super proud of this guy. I started this line over a year ago from foundations.
(He is double boosted, so if you breed to a double boosted mare foals can reach 15.0PT or higher if cloned).

Born of shadow and starlight, the Stygian Cob is said to have emerged from the mists of twilight itself. Their coats gleam the darkest shade of chestnut—so deep it is often mistaken for black—while their manes and tails shine white as fallen moonbeams. Legends whisper that this stark contrast marks them as creatures of balance, guardians who walk the line between night and day, mortal and fae.

Compact yet powerful, they bear the sturdy frame of cobs, with feathered legs that seem to carry the weight of old magic. Their eyes, often a burnished amber or deep gold, are said to see through deception and into the hearts of those they meet. In folklore, travelers claimed that a Stygian Cob appearing at dusk was an omen of protection, guiding lost souls safely home—or, in darker tales, leading the wicked astray into the veiled realms of the unseen.

Favored by wanderers, storytellers, and dreamers, these ponies are celebrated for their uncanny endurance and unshakable calm, as though they carry with them the stillness of the night sky. To ride one is to feel both grounded to the earth and tethered to the stars, a reminder of the old promise that twilight is not an ending, but a threshold.

The Stygian Cob is not merely a creature of flesh and bone, but a living legend—the twilight steed, woven of shadow, moonlight, and myth.
