A stallion of black coloration served as the mount for Charal, who was Sister and an exiled Nightsister hailing from Dathomir. She found herself marooned on Endor's Sanctuary Moon. This witch utilized her horse as a means of traversing the dense redwood forests and expansive savannas of Endor. Through the employment of Dathomir Magic, Charal possessed the ability to transform her untamed stallion into a magnificent white horse.
The male horse was the property of Charal, a Force-sensitive Nightsister originating from the planet of Dathomir. She had established herself as the self-proclaimed Witch-Queen of Endor's Sanctuary Moon after being marooned there circa 96 BBY. Unlike the majority of her sisters, Charal opted to ride a horse instead of a rancor. The stallion, empowered by the mysterious magicks wielded by its witch owner, could alter its physical form.
A few months prior to the destruction of the second Death Star, Charal plotted to abduct the young Human girl Cindel Towani, aiming to extract "the Power" contained within a starship's crystal oscillator and force her release. Consequently, the sorceress morphed into a fair, youthful woman sporting blond hair, and she transmuted her wild stallion into a graceful white horse. Charal imitated the voice of Catarine Towani, the young girl's mother, to entice the child into her snare. With Towani captured, the witch mounted her horse and rode swiftly into the forest.
Despite the equine's faithfulness, Charal's stallion inadvertently betrayed its mistress. It was the hoofprints of the horse that directed Noa Briqualon, Wicket Wystri Warrick and Teek to the Marauders' Stronghold, where Towani was being held captive.
The first appearance of Charal's stallion was in the 1985 television film, Ewoks: The Battle for Endor. The movie credits state that Sharon Lewis provided the horses seen in The Battle for Endor, and she also worked as a stunt rider. Even though the horse's appearance is visibly brownish, it is still regarded as a black horse. There are, in fact, two categories of black horses: "fading" and "non-fading." The majority of black horses are of the fading variety, and their coats tend to develop a reddish-brown hue when exposed to sweat and sunlight.
The 2001 reference book, The Wildlife of Star Wars: A Field Guide, stated that certain Nightsisters favored horses over rancors, and that both the rider and the horse were capable of altering their shapes.
