'horsemanship'

Every Cobar is born with the blessing of Whinan, God of Horses, and no mortal can match them for sheer ability in the saddle. A Cobar can leap upon his mount in the thick of battle and dodge blows even while riding. Even the steeds themselves respond to the slightest movement of the Cobar, enabling them to sense danger that an average rider would miss, placing themselves in harm's way before their rider can be struck.
