Unicorns

Unicorns are sentient beings found around Shadowcrest. Though the island is small, encountering a unicorn is still very rare.

Physical Appearance
The heads and legs of the unicorns of Shadowcrest resemble goats or deer more closely than horses, much like the classical unicorns depicted in medieval tapestries. They have long, slender bodies with thin waists, almost like a greyhound, with curving, almost feline spines that give them a very graceful and delicate appearance. They come in a variety of colors and patterns, and are quite variable in their physical features as well, such as their horns, manes, and tails. They usually have long eyelashes, cloven hooves, a long mane, lion-like tail and a single horn protruding from their forehead.

Behavior
Most unicorns are very elusive and are rarely encountered by the player. Aside from Petrichor, Eden and Oniero, all unicorns can only be encountered through rare random events. The player will recieve a hint of a nearby unicorn's presence by sparkles appearing on the screen. If they click these sparkles, the unicorn is revealed and the player may interact with them. Depending on the unicorns personality, it may be happy to give you dust from their horn or it may be offended if you ask too eagerly. The player must choose their words carefully in order to convince the unicorn to give them some. Each unicorn's horn dust has unique properties when used in magic or hatching baskets, corresponding with the specific unicorn it came from. Each time a new unicorn is encountered by the player, a number is added to their corresponding counter. If the player encounters every unicorn in the game, they recieve a prize.

Notable Unicorns
There is a unicorn serving the Wizard in the bell tower who guards said bell tower from unwanted visitors. He appears to be a loyal servant to the mysterious individual living in the tower, and is the easiest unicorn for the player to come accross. His name, canonly, is Petrichor.

The second most likely unicorn the player may stumble accross is Oniero, in a rare random event possible if the player sleeps in their bed.

There is a grey unicorn named Eden who can be found only if the player visits the admin's profile. Like all unicorns, he is considered an NPC and is interactive.
