I would like to suggest adding new variants of the skeleton horse: the Wither Skeleton Horse, the Stray Skeleton Horse, and the Bogged Skeleton Horse. This addition could be included in Mounts of Mayhem or, if time is short, in a future Drop. All horses would have unique abilities and specific spawn rates, which are detailed below:
Wither Skeleton Horse: Can walk under lava, just as a regular skeleton horse can walk under water. It is immune to the slowing effect of soul sand. Spawn rates on hard difficulty, always with a Wither Skeleton mounted, could be 0.75–1% in Nether Fortresses and 1.25–2% in Soul Sand Valley.
Stray Skeleton Horses: Can walk through powder snow without freezing, as if swimming in it. The player could use it to easily traverse powder snow without risk. The spawn rate on hard difficulty, always with a stray skeleton mounted, could be 0.45–0.95% during snowfall in snowy biomes.
Bogged Skeleton Horses: Can inflict poison on mobs upon contact and reduce their heart count. This would be balanced by having fewer hearts, similar to bogged skeletons. The spawn rate on hard difficulty, always with a bogged skeleton mounted, could be 0.2–0.75% in swamp biomes.
Mounts of Mayhem proposes adding mobs that cause mayhem in the player world. These new skeleton horses would certainly cause a lot of mayhem, as they would be in biomes that don't yet have hostile mounts. Thank you very much for your attention and for the incredible game that is Minecraft.
Best regards.
