So long as the nic’Epona is walking or running and remains moving, a momentary invisible walkway appears below her feet, allowing her to perform what appears to be an impossible feat.  They can even use this effect to run up vertical surfaces.  This effect can last up to one hour at a time (at which point it ceases to exist), during which time their hooves flare a bright blue flame.  No other creature can stand on or use the causeway, and only creatures riding the nic’Epona can benefit from it.   Outsider Traits: A nic’Epona has darkvision (60-footrange).  It cannot be raised or resurrected. The nic’Epona first appeared in the Planescape Campaign Setting (1994).</blockquote>
