Unicorns are a very magical species of equine beasts that originate from Italy, specifically Rome, but have now spread around the world.
Appearance[]
Unicorns are beasts that look very similar to their horse cousins, however, just like the cupids and yuki-yosei, they are said to be extremely beautiful, with pure white fur, silver manes and tails, and golden eyes. However, their hooves are black, just like normal horses. Also, they have one thing about their appearance that differs from mundane horses. Unicorns each have a single, pearlescent, spiraling horn growing from their foreheads. These horns are powerful, either as an offensive weapon, an amazing defense mechanism, and as a focus for their healing and purification abilities. These horns, structurally speaking, are quite similar to mundane deer antlers, being composed of a mixture of bone, cartilage, fibrous tissue, skin, nerves, and blood vessels. Found on both males and females, another way they are similar to mundane antlers is the fact that these horns are shed and regrown every year, and even shed horns contain powerful healing and purification properties.
Behavior[]
Unicorns are wild creatures, and are rather skittish in nature. They tend to be wary of strangers, however, one can gain the trust of the herd by proving that you plan to approach them with a pure-hearted, innocent, trustful manner. They also are proud creatures, and the only way for one to prove that they mean them no harm is to find the alpha unicorn and bow to him. If he bows back, then you may proceed with the knowledge that you have his trust. Once you have his trust, then you have the trust of the herd. Unicorn foals, just like their mundane cousins, are able to walk within 90 minutes after their born. Since they are young, unicorn foals are a bit more trusting then adults. Most unicorns live in the wild, however, there are some who have been domesticated.
