The walls of its bed rise ten feet in the air. It is icy cold to the touch and radiates an unholy aura to any who are sensitive to the presence of the dark powers of the world. The sleigh itself possesses several strange magical properties. It only needs to be pulled by a single horse (who moves at its normal speed when pulling the sleigh), though the poor beast of burden withers and sickens after a week of being tasked with pulling the horrid winter sled. In another week, the wretched creature is emaciated to the point of death. This damage is unrecoverable, save by divine intervention or the use of a wish spell. If left tied to the sleigh overnight, the horse (or other draft beast) rises as a zombie, bound forever to the service of the sleigh master. The draft animal, regardless of its form, gains the following features when it reaches the point of becoming undead: It becomes an undead, and gains immunity to poison damage and the poisoned condition. It gains the following additional features: Favored Terrain. Whenever the creature is moving through snow covered terrain or blood-soaked battlefields, its speed is doubled. Undead Fortitude. If damage reduces the creature to 0 hit points, it must make a Constitution saving throw with a DC of 5 + the damage taken, unless the damage is radiant or from a critical hit. On a success, the creature drops to 1 hit point instead. In addition, the sleigh functions as a portable hole for any object placed in the bed. The item vanishes in an icy blast of brimstone when placed there and can be recalled by reaching back into the bed at any time. However, each time an item is retrieved there is a cumulative 1% chance that a demonic creature springs forth from this terrible abyssal portal to devour those who would dare deface the sleigh of their master. The sleigh itself is impervious to all forms of damage and can only be removed from creation by having a bless spell cast upon it, and then wished out of existence.</blockquote>
