    "Pony Guars are particularly popular among Dunmer children as pets. Small, barely larger than a large cat, and often used as companion animals, they are more active than most other subspecies and are also more mischievous and playful . Their meat is said to be unsavory and they are also obviously of no use as pack animals. Some Dunmer use them to hunt small pests.

    The two common variants are known as Striated Pony Guars, but there are other few documented subspecies, one of them with similar coloration to the brave Banded Guar Charger used by the Redoran guard, those Pony Guars are generally used as mascots by House Redoran and commonly known simply as Redoran Pony Guars. Furthermore, the Temple of Reclamations often adopts as pest control a version similar to the Pale Velothi Guar, but of reduced size, the Temple's Pony Guars. There are also reports of some valuable Pony Guars with albinism among some Dunmer, and Black Marsh has its own variant, the green-colored Tessellated Pony Guar."

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Mihail's creature mods are usually top-tier, and this one's got 492 endorsements and 163k downloads to back it up.
  • Adds a cute, lore-friendly creature that fits right into Morrowind-inspired playthroughs.
  • Pony guars are more active and playful than regular guars, so they bring some life to your game.

⚠️ Cons

  • The description is pretty thin—no details on where to find them or if they're tamable, so you're going in blind.
  • Since it's a creature mod, it might conflict with other mods that edit the same leveled lists or spawn points.
  • If you're not into Mihail's style or creature mods in general, this might not add much to your game.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who love creature mods and want to add a bit of Morrowind flavor to their game. If you're a fan of Mihail's work or just want more wildlife variety, this is a solid pick. Skip if you're looking for gameplay overhauls or if you don't care about new creatures.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's a creature mod, make sure to place it in your load order after any mods that change creature spawns or leveled lists.
  • If you're using a mod manager, you can preview the mod's files to see if it includes any patches or optional files.
  • Check if the mod requires the Anniversary Edition update if you're on SE—Mihail often has separate versions.
