Origin Horses

Last updated
Origin Horses are not only rarer and more powerful, but they also serve as genetic anchors for the Planet Horse economy. With limited breeding across generations, Origin NFTs ensure controlled population growth and long-term value.
With only 3,333 Origin Horses available in the inaugural drop, owning one means owning a piece of the foundation of Planet Horse. These horses are your gateway to earning, evolving, and expanding within a thriving and competitive ecosystem.
In Planet Horse, Origin Horses serve as the cornerstone of ecosystem expansion through a robust breeding system. These special NFT horses possess enhanced breeding capabilities, allowing them to create new generations of race-ready offspring. Their breeding count is determined by rarity, ensuring higher-rarity Origin Horses can be leveraged more strategically to expand your stable.

Offspring horses — those bred from Origin Horses — have limited breeding potential, with a randomized breeding count between 0 and 3 over their lifetime.
Breeding requires payment in both $PHORSE and $RON, following a progressive cost structure:

Costs continue to increase by +500 $PHORSE and +2 $RON for each subsequent breed after the 12th. This exponential model ensures long-term sustainability of the breeding economy while rewarding strategic use of high-rarity Origin Horses.

New offspring inherit the highest base statuses from their parents. Base stats refer to a horse’s stats at level 1, excluding any gains from leveling. Consider the following example:
Base Power
1
Base Sprint
2
Base Speed
2
Base Power
3
Base Sprint
2
Base Speed
1
The resulting offspring will have:
Base Power
3 or higher if mutations occur
Base Sprint
2 or higher if mutations occur
Base Speed
2 or higher if mutations occur
Gene splicing is the act of burning an NFT horse and using its genes to create a new improved one. When a horse is burned, the user receives a voucher equal to 60% of the burned horse’s total XP, plus one of the following gene items:
Power Genes: Adds +3 to a horse’s base Power stat during breeding.
Sprint Genes: Adds +3 to a horse’s base Sprint stat during breeding.
Speed Genes: Adds +3 to a horse’s base Speed stat during breeding.
These gene items can then be applied to other horses during breeding to further boost inheritance beyond parent stats.
Using the previous example, assume Parent One is given Power Genes (+3 Power) and Parent Two is given Speed Genes (+3 Speed) before breeding:
Base Power
1 + 3 = 4
Base Sprint
2
Base Speed
2
Base Power
3
Base Sprint
2
Base Speed
1 + 3 = 4
Offspring now inherits the highest boosted stats:
Base Power
4 or higher if mutations occur
Base Sprint
2 or higher if mutations occurr
Base Speed
4 or higher if mutations occur
This demonstrates how gene splicing can significantly enhance breeding outcomes by boosting specific base stats beyond the parents’ original values.
Each horse in Planet Horse has three core stats: Power, Sprint, and Speed. These stats, along with a horse’s maximum level cap and growth potential, are determined by its rarity.

Higher rarities also possess greater GROWTH POTENTIAL, a hidden trait that determines how much a horse’s stats increase per level.
In this example we see the difference between a Common horse versus an Epic horse growth in terms of status.

At maximum level (30), the total cost reaches 126,000 $PHORSE and 312 medals. Higher levels demand increasing investment, rewarding long-term dedication and smart resource management.
Leveling up a horse does more than just improve its energy—it boosts stats using the following formula:
Growth potential is a hidden trait rolled during level-up, and higher-rarity horses consistently roll higher values.
Medals are also required to level up. Horses earn 1 medal each time they finish 1st, 2nd, or 3rd in a race.
