The horse is a character introduced in Miitopia for Nintendo Switch.

Appearance

The horse, by default, is brown and has black bead eyes, white line on the front of its face, gray mane with white tips, black muzzle, tail, and hooves, and white legs. It is about twice the height of an average Mii. Its appearance can be customized in its own menu.

In the Change option (accessible in the Party menu), the horse's appearance, name, and gender can be changed after its initial introduction (which gave the player the first opportunity to design the horse's appearance). In Appearance, the player can change the following:

• Body: The horse's body shape. It has the following types: Normal (default), Cute, Easygoing, Cool, Plump, and Shapely.
• Mane: The horse's mane appearance. It has the following types: Natural (default), Bob, Long, Mohawk, Bun, and Dreads.
• Tail: The horse's tail appearance. It has the following types: Soft (default), Straight Cut, Feathered, Thick, Fluffy, and Braids.
• Eyes: The horse's eye shape. It has the following types: Round (default), Almond, Lidded, Googly, Equine, and Crossed.
• Leg Thickness: Adjust the horse's leg thickness using the slider. As long as it is not saved yet, the player may use the Undo button to revert the change.
• Saddle: The horse's saddle design. Not available during initial creation. It has the following types: Regular (default), Extravagant, Plush, Checkered, Shiny, and Fluttery.
• Horns: An option to add horn(s) to the horse. Horn shapes include Unicorn, Drill, Stubby, Bicorn, and Demon.
• Color: Edit the color of the aforementioned six parts. The body has four parts that can be colored separately (body color, star color, nose color, leg color), the mane and the tail each has the main color and the hair-tip color that can be edited separately to add a gradient effect, while the other parts can only have a single color applied. The color can be changed either by using the Nintendo Switch's 100 color presets or by using an HSV color slider, much like the makeup and wigs.

Bio

The horse is first encountered by the party in Easin Hills after rescuing all the faces of the Greenhorne town residents. It was found surrounded by three Goblins. After defeating those monsters, the hero's party leaves it be, but they soon realize that the horse is following them. The protagonist then welcomes the horse to the party and names it, allowing it to join for adventures. The horse is in a stable located to the left of the Inn, and the horse is the only party member (aside from the hero) to not be captured by the Dark Lord between the games first four worlds.

Whenever the party gets split in half as of the falling rocks event, the horse will always remain with the Hero/Leader's team, same as with guest party members.

The horse can be bonded with to increase its relationship level either by playing out Inn events related to it or by using Horse Outing Tickets. The horse can be ridden by one of the party members during exploration via Saddle Up or Saddle Up II, and participate in battles, where it is capable of acting using assists, since the horse does not have a turn of its own. In addition, it is randomly available for any Mii with a relationship of Lv. 2 or higher to execute special attacks instead of the Mii's basic attack. The AI will always use this option when available. Unlike regular relationships, there are no quarrel mechanics between the horse and party members.

Having the horse in the party can trigger a variety of related events while exploring, some of which increase relationship with the horse. It can also intervene in "tension" events in place of a regular party member. However, most of these new events are never available in random dungeons a la the Camp cutscenes despite the repetitive nature.

Stats

When assist skills are activated, the game will use the horse's stat instead of the attacker's for that damage calculation, which is decided by the user's level.

Since the stat of the horse is fixed, assist skills may deal less damage than normal attacks if the attacker's stat is significantly higher than the horse's.

Horse action effects

The Hero Mii's battle menu, with "Horse" replacing "Attack".

The horse may assist a party member randomly, signaled by the horse whinnying before the Mii takes their turn. Passive effects such as Snuggle Up are not influenced by any Mii's "Attack" action. In the Hero Mii's case, the "Attack" option will be replaced with "Horse", giving the player access to any of the unlocked horse-based combat assists. Most status effects block the Mii from being assisted by the horse, however, though the Neigh assist (removes negative status effects) may randomly trigger on a Mii with certain ailments before said Mii can take an action that turn. If the horse wants to assist a COM-controlled member, they will always use it.

Certain assists have varied effects which are elaborated below. Variant names are taken from their internal names and are not named in-game.

Mounted Attack

The assist Mounted Attack will turn the Mii's standard attack into either a boosted single-target attack or a wide-target one. There are three variants of this assist. The higher tier this assist is, the more powerful the damage inflicted.

Variant	Activation rate	Damage multiplier	Note(s)
Weapon Attack	40%	1.2 (I) 1.8 (II) 2.4 (III)	Single-target. Attack is performed by the riding Mii using his/her equipped weapon.
Back Kick	35%	1.5 (I) 2.1 (II) 2.7 (III)	Single-target. Attack involves the horse performing a back kick. If the assisted Mii is weaponless from having his/her weapon eaten by a Mummy-type monster, this variant is always used whenever Mounted Attack is executed.
Side Slash	25%	1.6 (I) 2.2 (II) 2.8 (III)	Wide-target.

Snort

The assist Snort is an all-target magic attack. Like Mounted Attack, there are three variants of this assist. The higher tier this assist is, the more powerful the damage inflicted.

Variant	Activation rate	Damage multiplier	Note(s)
Normal	40%	0.8 (I) 1.3 (II) 1.8 (III)	The horse breathes out steam.
Fire	35%	1.1 (I) 1.6 (II) 2.1 (III)	The horse breathes out red fire.
Inferno	25%	1.4 (I) 1.9 (II) 2.4 (III)	The horse breathes out blue fire.

Horse Whispering

The assist Horse Whispering is the only skill that varies in effect depending on the job using it. It requires the hero Mii to have full MP in order to be able to use and will not activate with Auto Battle on. Other Party Members also can't use it. The following is the list of jobs and associated effects. It is called Horseplay in the European version.

Job	Effect multiplier (attack/heal)	What the move does	Note(s)
Warrior	9	The Warrior says "It's time!" (NA) or "Do it!" (EU) before he/she and the horse joust an enemy with the sword for extremely high damage.	Single-target physical attack.
Mage	1.6	The Mage says "To the sky!" as the horse grows wings before taking off. The Mage then launches a thunderbolt spell that hits different enemies at random.	Random-target magic attack that hits 8 times. Will hit less times if there is too insufficient number of targets.
Cleric	3	The Cleric says "It's a miracle!" as the horse grows wings and takes flight similarly to the Mage. The Cleric then unleashes a brilliant healing spell from the sky. This move cannot be used if the party is at full health.	All-target support that revives fallen allies and restores all of their HP and half of their MP.
Thief	3.5	The Thief says "Showtime!" as he/she and the horse take off to launch an attack from the side. At first, the Thief is not seen riding on the horse, but just as the horse turns around before landing the strike, the Thief is actually hanging onto the horse from the right side as it strikes all enemies with his/her dagger, possibly stealing food from one of the enemies.	All-target physical attack that has a 50% chance to steal grub.
Pop Star	1	The Pop Star says "Listen up, everyone!" (NA) or "All eyes on me!" (EU) before making three poses with the horse. He/she then yells "I LOVE YOU!" (NA) or "I love you guys!" (EU), resulting in the crowd going wild.	All-target support that fully restores all allies' HP and inflicts the "Excite" status on them. Also has a 60% chance to distract enemies.
Chef	1.8	The Chef says "Who's hungry" (NA) or "Anyone hungry?" (EU) before cooking an extremely spicy meal that he/she feeds to the horse. This causes the horse to breath fire out of the nostrils before spewing out five massive fireballs that fall onto to enemy team.	Wide-target magic attack on random enemies that hits 5 times. Will hit less times if there is too insufficient number of targets.
Cat	1.55	The Cat plays with the horse before being launched upward and unleashing six powerful scratches onto a single enemy. This move stacks with Sharpen Claws, which can deal even more damage. The Cat then lands back on the ground next to the horse before happily purring.	Single-target physical attack that hits 6 times.
Imp	7	The Imp says "Won't hurt a bit!" (NA) or "C'mon, won't hurt!" (EU) before poking the horse in the rear with his/her pitchfork. This causes the horse to sprout dark wings and fly out of control before the duo crash land onto the enemy team.	All-target physical attack, but the user also takes recoil damage.
Scientist	7.1	The scientist says "Launching fight sequence..." (NA) or "Booting up..." (EU) as he/she uses a monitor to prepare a massive attack. The Scientist then finishes installing the attack as a beam cannons appears on both sides of the horse. Shortly after, the both cannons fire at the targeted enemy which also hits enemies adjacent to the main target.	Wide-target (hits other enemies adjacent to the chosen target) magic attack. The main target takes the most damage.
Tank	1.25	The Tank "Armed and ready!" before the Mii gets inside of their tank armor. At the same time, two cannons with four missiles each appear next to the horse. Afterwards, the Mii fires a carrot-like missile from its head cannon, along with the other 8 missiles from the two cannons which end up striking multiple different enemies.	Random-target physical attack that hits 7 times.
Princess	1	The Princess says "Behold." before performing a dance on the horse. This causes a music wave to spread to the party, giving them the "Gleeful" status and restores half their MP. This wave also spreads to the enemy team, but unlike the hero's party members, the wave negatively affects the enemy team with the "calm" status, possibly leading them to take a lot more damage.	All-target support that restores all allies' MP by half and inflicts the "Gleeful" status on them. Also has a 60% chance of inflicting "calm" on enemies.
Flower	2.5	The Flower says "You reap what you sow." before preparing to grow an aroma of flowers from the ground. He/she then says "From bud to blossom!" as the aforementioned flowers grow. It then spreads to the party, fully healing them (and reviving them if they were dead) as well as giving them the gleeful status. This move cannot be used if all party members are at full health. Functionally, this is a combination of the Cleric's and Princess' Horse Whisper.	All-target support that revives fallen allies, restores all their HP, and inflicts them (including any ally affected with the revival) with the "Gleeful" status.
Vampire	2.2	The Vampire says "Darkness falls." as the horse sprouts dark wings much like the Imp, albeit the horse doesn't fly. A dark mist cloud then fills in as the horse turns pitch black, and Mii turns evil before saying "The night consumes all.", unleashing a flock of bats that hits all enemies three times.	All-target physical attack that hits 3 times.
Elf	6.5	The Elf says "Hi-ho!" before the Mii and the horse start moving. The Elf then launches a shining arrow from their bow, which strikes the ground and deals massive damage to the targeted enemy as well as splash damage to enemies adjacent to the main target. Functionally, this is similar to the Scientists Horse Whisper.	Wide-target magic attack. The main target takes the most damage.

Quotes

• "Easy, now." (US) / "Whoa, steady!" (EU) (After kicking Mount Attack Assist, target is undefeated)
• "Ahhh, so cozy." (US) / "Comfy!" (EU) (Snuggle Up assist)
• "D'awww!" (US) / "Ooh...!" (EU) (Cheek Rub assist)
• "Oho!" (Neigh assist)

Trivia

• Unlike other allies, relationship experience for the horse will not stop accumulating after it reaches max level at an Inn, and it will eventually overflow when it reaches 32768 (as of 1.0.2).
• The Horse Whispering skill is called Horseplay in the European version.
• After using the back kick variant of Mounted Attack, the Mii will say "Easy, now..." if the target has survived, or their war cry if the target is defeated. However, they will do nothing at all if they have killed a monster that has a post-death event, such as a Bomb exploding or a Hamburger spitting out a Mii.
• Somewhat oddly, the "Easygoing" body type is slightly fatter than the "Plump" body type.
• The name for the horse in the game's overview trailer, "Honse", refers to a meme consisting of horses photoshopped to have heavily abnormal proportions.
• Similarly to the first party member the player encounters, saying no to the horse will send the player to an endless text loop asking if the player is sure. A unique music called "Horse: Disappointment" will be played if this happens. It will still be unlocked even if the player did not say no, as to not prevent 100% completion.
• The offense-based Horse Whispering skills are the only way to inflict damage beyond the 999 cap.
• When a Mounted Attack misses, all Miis present will have a sad expression on their faces.
• Horse Whispering skills that inflict status effects on party members will not affect those under a non-emotion-based status effect, such as Nightmare.
