Mounted

Rohan is of course the culture most concerned with being atop a mount, but they are not the only ones․

Mounted is a pseudo-Unloaded Keyword that is not printed on cards. Rather, it (like Unbound) is a hidden keyword that is considered to be automatically applied to certain characters, in this case all characters who bear a Mount.

Rules Entries

From the Comprehensive Rules:

A mounted character means one who is "bearing a possession with the class of mount." (See bearer.) .
