Sleipnir

In Norse mythology, Sleipnir is an eight-legged horse and the mount of Odin. Sleipnir was conceived by the god Loki who had transformed himself into a mare in order to attract the attention of a great stallion and force the stallion’s owner to chase the two into the night and prevent him from collecting payment for the construction of Asgard.
