Mounts for non-human races. Give me your best alternatives to the standard horse, as well as mounts better suited to non-human quirks.

Dinosaurs riding on dinosaurs.
centaurs ride slightly bigger horses

Creepy, I like it.

>non-human races
ugh.
Anyone has any ideas for orc mounts that aren't wolves/wargs or boars? The big problem is that both fit pretty well, though, but I would want to try something else.

In my setting they ride on eight legged horses. It's simple, but the entire setting is meant to focus on humanity, so keeping Orcs human to a degree is somewhat intentional. They're also a bastardization of steppe-nomads so I like the idea of settlers being driven to terror by a thunder of hooves and a hail of arrows.

Bulls.
I'm quite a firm believer that Camels kind of outclass Horses in most things.
MY favourite mounts to see though?
>Boars
>Beetles
>Dire rats
>oversized domestic dogs
>Ogres/Giants
Oh, and various bovine-ish beasts of burden!
>>54437666
Snakes? The movement range of the head could be interesting to play around with. Esp for a ranged character.
In a similar vein, Hydras for a hunting party?
>>54437666
Also, I've always loved howdahs. One on the back of a turtle or ankylosaurus? Or even better, built into the shell?
Wooly rhinos.
Andrewsarchus, they're enormous, not too bright and underused.

I really like that Crescians ride dogs in Unsounded
>>54437666
Elks or some other large cervid for Elves
>>54439440
Entelodonts. They are similar to boars but not quite like them

>>54438333
why not?
mammals ride on mammals
>>54439440
Bison or Aurochs/Texas longhorn looking bulls I've done before
I personally used to ride a cow around as a kid on my grandparents farm so that gave me the idea
or a rino could be good

Never thought about that. You're right. The world seems much cooler to me now, thanks
>>54437666
Giant lava spewing spiders for some 3D combat
Wyverns, capcom's doing it.
Dune worms scaled to mount size, for other burrowing creatures to ride.
Hunter X Hunter is the best.
I got orcs on bird-raptor things, feywild elves alternating between grasshopper-esque giant bugs and deer-like ungulates, and dwarves on domesticated bullettes.

Goats, but big
>>54437666
Kobolds riding raptors.
Goblins riding displacer beasts, and serving as emergency rations.
