Overview
This pegasus is every horse-crazy kid's dream - I mean, who doesn't want to ride a literal galaxy peg? Named for the tiny white speckles on their dark, iridescent bodies (which look like a field of stars), starlings are generally mellow and friendly. They would be perfectly serviceable cart or farm beasts, but owing to their gorgeous coloration, they are very rarely used that way. Starlings are highly sought-after by performers and entertainment caravans.

Coloration and Conformation
Starlings have a primarily black coat, with purple and green iridescence and small white or gold spots that make them look like a field of stars. Being shortwings, they cannot fly, but have been seen gliding downhill occasionally.
