Equus
by Ace_Tonba
Equus adds mythical horses and new horse-related items to Fabric worlds for 1.21.1, with Posian and Hadean variants that can be found and tamed in unusual places.
What it does
Equus targets horses and the activities around them, with the stated aim of extending both utility and adventure. The author plans to add several rare horse subtypes in a later release, each with abilities meant to help players traverse areas. Fabric API is required, and the mod runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Builds are published for 1.21.1 only, with 0.2 as the latest Fabric file, and the code is under the MIT License, making it open source.
Posian horses are rare and appear on the surface as well as in deep ocean biomes. They can run across water without drowning. Taming them uses prismarine shards and crystals, and a new aqueous carrot item is used to breed them. Hadean horses are rare and found in nether clutches. Their variety typically comes with horns rather than standard fur patterns, and the horns help scare off many common hostile mobs. Taming them uses blaze rods, powder and magma cream, and an infernal carrot item is used for breeding.

How it compares
Park My Horse is server-side only, open source under the MIT License, and built for both Fabric and NeoForge for 1.21.11, so players can join without installing it. Horse Speed Changer is client and server, open source under the MIT License, and covers 1.20.1 only. Equus differs from both by adding new horse subtypes and taming items rather than changing horse behavior.
