Rumors of a unicorn in the area will often bring travelers from near and far – sighting such a beast is said to bring great luck to the viewer. Typically white, with a shimmery rainbow mane and tail, and a pearled horn protruding from the head, these horse-like creatures are found in the deep woods and rarely the countryside.
Unicorns are non-aggressive beasts (although they will fight to defend themselves). Their natural presence is alluring – if they attract mortals, they will often impart some knowledge, or perhaps a blessing. Less scrupulous individuals may attack a unicorn, as the horn, when ground into a powder and consumed, is said to increase one’s affinity to the magics of the world.
