Clad in fatigued barding, the skeletal dreadsteed is an ossified vestige of a powerful steed.  Bits of dried flesh cling to the bones, but its ribcage is an open ruin that holds a twisting, nebulous orb of phantasmal blue flame.  More cerulean fire sprouts from its skull, neck, and hinquarters as an unearthly mane and tail.  Its bony hooves are shod in old steel.

Appraisal:

The skeletal dreadsteed is large in size and about five feet high in its current state.

Leaving

Death
