Unicorns are highly magical beings. Their horns especially are prized for their magical potency, which gets more powerful as a Unicorn ages.[2]

They used to inhabit the Vale Forrest. There is only one Unicorn left alive, Taletevirion.

The Nightmares (and Night Stallions) are the very dangerous, inbred and evil "cousins" of Unicorns. They have fiery manes and leave flaming hoofprints where they run.[3] Like Bicorns, Nightmares might have twi horns.[4]
Usage[edit | edit source]
Probably all parts of a Unicorns are possible to use in magical crafting and alchemy, which is certainly a contributing factor in unicorns being so rare today. However, as the magical creatures disappeared after being hunted as alchemical ingredients, they have been replaced with other ingredients that are much easier to obtain and to use, like Sage’s Grass that was specifically bred for this purpose.[5]
