I was curious how some people explain these beasts being used as beasts of burden. I think the topic was touched on in the past or I remember answering a thread asking something similar some time back.
I think this might be the post you're recalling?
As far as Ixion goes... using the classifications I used in the post above, I'd sort Ixion under the "WoL exclusive" category.
Ixion Mount Wrote:Ask any Gyr Abanian youth, and she will tell you the story of Ixion, Rhalgr's magnificent steed─swift as a levinbolt and strong as thunderclap. However, the recent discovery of several ancient Mhachi texts suggests that the creature may simply be a stallion augmented by ancient technologies that have granted Ixion life eternal...and the ability to shoot lightning from its eyes.
A Horse Outside Wrote:It is said on a mighty levinbolt doth the warsteed Ixion ride─thunder, the rumbling of his hooves as they pound the very heavens. Ware the coming storm, for hell descendeth.
Ixion Horn Wrote:A fragment of Ixion's horn. The raw energy coursing through it renders the item nigh impossible to grasp overlong.
