Description[]

"Long ago, two tears slipped from Aideen’s eyes to land in a mountain pool. The tears trickled through water and over rocks, forming crystals along the way. When the tear-infused water reached Mistfall, it splashed over two horses passing beneath a waterfall and sprayed their coats with powerful Jorvegian crystals. The dazzling Calder and Ephyra emerged from the cascade!

Calder’s spectacular coat shimmers with purple crystals that channel and amplify strength and power. His temperament is widely believed to positively influence the self-confidence of his rider. Get a power boost from Calder’s energy today!

Calder can disguise himself as a silver bay Paso Fino. Ephyra can disguise herself as a silvery blue dun Paso Fino."


Unique Features[]

Color Changing[]

The Calder is a magical horse with the special ability to change colors. When the player presses the "h" key or the magic horse icon on the horse's character sheet, the horse will change from its neutral colors to its natural (magic) colors and vice versa. The horse will not change colors during races or while the player is unmounted.

The Paso Largo[]

Note: The horse must reach level 7 to perform this gait.

While most breeds in SSO only have five gaits, the Calder has six. This special gait is called the Paso Largo. To make your horse do this gait, the horse must be walking. The player then must hold down the Shift key and then simultaneously hit either the up arrow or the 'w' key. The Calder will then begin to perform the special gait. During this gait, the horse cannot move to a faster gait or jump. To stop the Paso Largo, simply slow your horse down like you would with any other.

The Classic Fino[]

Note: The horse must reach level 7 to perform this move.

The Calder can perform a special move called the Classic Fino. The animation can be activated by pressing the spacebar, but only when standing still, otherwise the horse will jump instead of performing the move.

The Reining Slide Stop[]

While all of the horses in star stable will technically come to a "Hard stop" if the player presses the "X" button when in a full gallop, the Calder has a special stop method found in western reining. When it is in full gallop, and the player goes for a hard stop, the horse will instead perform a "Slide stop."

Trivia[]

  • The Calder, like most other Magic Horses, cannot have its hairstyle changed.
  • The Calder uses the Paso Fino model.
  • The Calder was released as a pair with Ephyra.
  • At night, the mane and tail have a slight glow effect.
  • The name Calder is a Scottish surname thought to come from the early Common Brittonic, meaning "hard or violent water" or possibly "stony river."[5]
  • While the Calder is described as male within the in-game description, players can still choose to label the horse as a mare in the customization settings.
