The Hellsteed is a result of the dark powers of a necromancers magic combined with the brute force of the hellish Nightmare.
Skilled necromancers who cast the Animate Dead spell on the corpse of a Nightmare, will summon one of these powerful steeds that have the ability to breathe chaos, which is an ability much like the firebreath of the Nightmare.
The steed will not obey commands from the necromancer very well, but when it is not being ridden, it will follow him around and attack his enemies.
As with all animated dead creatures the Hellsteed will slowly loose hitpoints and in time collapse into a heap of bones, even if it is being ridden.
