Swift Wind / Spirit


Swift Wind is She-Ra’s mighty pegacorn companion!

Originally Swift Wind was Spirit, an intelligent talking horse, but by the power of Grayskull he was given the fabulous abilities of both a pegasus and a unicorn! When bathed in the light emanating from the jewel in She-Ra’s sword, Swift Wind gains tremendous durability and power. He can also fly at incomprehensible speed and his horn grants him the ability to communicate telepathically with other extraordinary equines.

Swift Wind and his mate Star Wind have a foal together and She-Ra used the jewel in her sword to transform Swift Wind’s baby into a unicorn!
