    Mount

    • Hardy-Daytona (Account-wide)

    Designed for battle, the Hardy-Daytona is propelled by a V-type double overhead camshaft engine that produces so much power, it is regarded as a monster of a machine that chooses its rider. Rumour holds it was developed by the weapons division of a mega-corporation, but the truth of its origin cannot be verified.

    * This mount can travel at the first enhanced level of mount speed in areas where increased mount speed is available.

    Minion

    • Wind-up Red XIII (Account-wide)

    Based on a quadrupedal beast that once fought for the fate of its star. This faithful rendition might not be capable of such heroism, but they will happily follow you wherever adventure might beckon.

    Orchestrion Rolls

    • THE PRIMALS Orchestrion Set
    • Pulse 2 Orchestrion Roll Set I
