Unicorn Physiology

"It is a terrible crime to slay a unicorn. Drinking the blood of a unicorn will keep you alive even if you are an inch from death, but at a terrible price. You have slain something so pure that from the moment the blood touches your lips, you will have a half-life. A cursed life."

― Firenze (Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone)

"There has never been a time without unicorns. We live forever. We are as old as the sky, old as the moon. We can be hunted, trapped. We can even be killed if we leave our forests, but we do not vanish."

― Unicorn (The Last Unicorn)

Capabilities[]

User with this ability either is or can transform into a unicorn, which is usually described as a white horse-like animal with a large, pointed, spiraling horn projecting from its forehead, and sometimes a goat's beard and cloven hooves, a horse's head, a deer's body, and a lion's tail. They are extremely wild woodland creatures, symbols of purity and grace. Unicorns are deeply associated with virgin women. It is also believed that virgin women are the only ones that can tame, and ride them. Despite their hostility towards humans, the unicorns are nice to virgin women allowing them in their presence to the point of riding them. In the encyclopedias, its horn was said to have the power to render poisoned water potable and to heal sicknesses.

Note that none of these descriptions mention anything about gentleness or goodness; unicorns were always considered wild and dangerous. The reason for they’re hostile nature is probably due to humans hunting them down for the magical horns. A group of unicorns is called a blessing.
