Also known as Saint Ephrahm the Saddleborn, and The Equine Saint.

Ephrahm is known for his love of horses, and he blesses all Cavaliers. It is said that as a knight, he was more comfortable riding than walking, and when a time came that his land was besieged by monsters, he fought for twelve days and nights without ever dismounting, alone but for his steed.

When he was finally slain, even then he did not fall from his saddle, but instead was reborn anew, sitting there atop his noble destroyer.

Many commoners believe the thunder to be Ephrahm riding against distant enemies.

Notable Scriptures

"I saw a falcon with the legs of a cow, and it was on a perch blown to and fro by the wind. That perch rested on the shoulders of three human bodies with heads like pigs, clothed in fine raiment, but drooling all over. And the falcon had a crown made of sticks which seemed to barely hang on its head. As I watched, there was an earthquake, and the three men with heads like pigs trembled and the crown slipped from the falcon's head. Then I awoke, and saw no more." (Holy Visions of the Equine Saint, vision 18)

"The Saints have picked the victor; we only seem to see him win." (The Bloody Bath of the Holy Pilgrims, saying 1)
