Idea: Malboro mounts!

Even the game lore hates them.

please no, i need to be able to breathe.

Only if they have the "Really Bad Breath" skill from Final Fantasy X!... ;)

All CMs need a mount designed after their avatar.. ;3

Snurble... OH SNURBLE!!!! lol (Slepnir is pretty great for Odin (thinking of Primal CMs), but Bayohne will need an improved mount cause he deserves a really boss one too! Sicycre is Shiva, so basically if a CM picks a primal - primal gets a new mount :P. Also I know Camate is no longer a CM, but his soft Snurble heart can live on lol).

FFXI, as someone else mentioned, also had a Malboro mount so we can sort of sample a style of what it may look like already.

While I'd caution this next thought.. I think some abilities that have player interaction can be pretty fun, WoW has some of these but a few can be a bit detrimental (like the train toy lol).. But a longer cooldown ability on the mount to pace a series of joke/fake buffs could be fun :D. Like players animate a coughing action and get a visual effect that makes them look affected, maybe wave their hand like someone dealt some cheese (this hopefully would make it not so bad, since it would be simply an animation that doesn't cancel any action - unlike some of the WoW toys haha).

Goobbue sneeze could be a blast of wind and the bracing against the wind while covering face (although loud/obnoxious/character effecting abilities on mounts imo should then be put on a slightly longer cooldown, just to make them less spamable).
