Madōbas are armored horses that serve the will of the given Makai Knight. Based on observation, it seems the horses are only given to titled knights as non-titled knights are never seen with their own stead; elite knights who slay over one hundred Horrors can qualify for a special trial to gain a steed that compliments them after their armor. After passing the trial, they can summon their horses at will. Although given the appearance of a horse, the stead doesn't contain any organic components; it is an enchanted sentient machine that has the ability to enter and travel through other realms. Makai Knights can only ride Madō Horses in their armored form.

Each horse have their own ability to enhance their rider's combat abilities, however, every horse have their own abilities and some are made more powerful compared to others. Under special conditions, a Makai Priest can also summon a horse, but must be consented by the Makai Knight. As shown in case of Kouga Saejima trial that a Makai Knight must accomplished in order to acquire the right to summon his Madō Horse is facing his own shadow at the Makai inside him.
The knight must overcome darkness inside him in order to claim such right. Interestingly, whereas Kouga must face his shadow that takes form of a Makai Knight that don Garo Armor in its Master Garo form, Raiga Saejima overcomes the trial by defeating Zaji instead. The difference of trials of father and son revealed to be due to Raiga's inner reluctance to become a Makai Knight like his father, but chose the path anyway for the sake of everyone.
Ryūga-verse
Although a very similar world to the original, Madō Horses don't exist within this realm. It's unclear why, but it is presumed that this world's Makai Order saw no need for it. However, there have been magical spell casting that created a temporary stead that resembles one for combat.
