The horses of the ''Fire Emblem'' series are identical to their real-world counterparts: they are large, four-legged, hoofed mammals with distinct snouts, covered in a coat of short hair save for their long manes and tails. They come in a variety of hair colors, including brown, black, gray, gold and white; the coloration and appearance of horses also varies by region, as noted by how [[Gonzalez]] - a [[Western Isles]] native - commented to [[Dayan]], a [[Sacaen]], that his horse is of an unfamiliar color.<ref>{{Cite|What that horse? Strange color.|[[Gonzalez]]|The Binding Blade}}</ref>  Horses possess significant strength and stamina, which is the primary reason for their domestication and use by humans.

In ''Fire Emblem'', horses are closely related to [[pegasus|pegasi]], a species of winged horse-like creatures which are also widely used as steeds by humans. The exact relationship between the two species does not appear to be known in-universe, and it is uncertain whether pegasus evolved from horses by developing wings or vice versa.<ref>{{Cite|'''Sully:''' Huh. When you put 'em side by side, there's hardly any difference at all... If not for the wings, pegasi and horses would look exactly the same.<br>'''Sumia:''' They even eat the same food! Maybe they're cousins of one sort or another.<br>'''Sully:''' It's just odd. How the hell did pegasi end up with wings?<br>'''Sumia:''' I've always wondered how the horses lost theirs.<br>'''Sully:''' Har! I never thought of it that way!
