I'd love to not put pintos in Bruma because medieval roman horses seemed to mostly be precursors to breeds that don't come in pinto (barbs, camargues, maybe contemporary iberian breeds and arabians a bit) but they're straight up labelled "paint horse" and referred to as such in dialogue so my hands are tied on this one.

#I'm mostly leaning toward barb with my light horse model #mostly because it fit best on the skeleton #why paint horses though. why a modern american breed #based off two other modern american and english breeds #I mean why breeds at all really #horse/dog/cat breeds are a pretty modern concept and before that animals were by and large purpose bred #so you'd have work horses and riding horses and war horses etc #but there weren't defined breeds with carefully monitored standards #which I think was probably a better system tbh but that's neither here nor there #I think maybe the devs have mixed up pinto and paint?#and also the concept of color vs breed in general?
