Frost (Horse)

Frost is a palomino horse in Skyrim that appears outside Black-Briars Lodge during the quest Promises to Keep. When completing the quest, the Dragonborn can persuade Louis Letrush to give you the horse, along with the second half of the payment he was going to give you. Alternatively, you have the option to kill Louis, granting ownership of Frost to you automatically.

Frost seems to be more aggressive in combat than other horses. He has more health and stamina than regular horses, but less than The Dark Brotherhood's Shadowmere.

Trivia
His house is in the village though; He will not see me stopping here To watch his woods fill up with snow.
 * Frost's grandsire is named Sleipnir. This is a reference to Odin's eight-legged horse in Norse mythology who happens to be an ancestor of Grani's. Sleipnir also appears in Wagner's "Ring" but is not referred to there by name.
 * His name seems to be a reference to poet Robert Frost. The quest title is a line from the poem, "Stopping By the Woods on a Snowy Evening," involving a horse and its master.
 * ''Whose woods these are I think I know.

My little horse must think it queer To stop without a farmhouse near Between the woods and frozen lake The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake To ask if there is some mistake. The only other sound's the sweep Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep.''


 * To prevent Frost from dying the player can type "setessential 97E1E 1" (without quotes)
 * To revive Frost after he's dead you can type "prid 97E1F," then "resurrect."

Bugs

 * If Frost dies, the quest Promises to Keep will not be shown as failed, but it will be uncompletable.
 * Frost has a exception of running away for no reason.
