| Unicorn Dragon Medium: digital painting |
A subspecies of the Horse
Dragon, Unicorn Dragons hatch with completely white scales and remain that
way throughout their entire lives. They are named for the straight, single horn
which stands out of their foreheads. This golden-colored horn is prized by
dragon-slayers. They are adequate fliers, although they prefer to remain on the
ground and hunt by hiding in forest undergrowth. Slayers have reported Unicorn
Dragons disappearing into the forest without a trace.
They are slightly smaller than Horse Dragons (about the size of large deer), and prefer to live in dense forests rather than open plains. They dislike human contact and have a reputation for being "shy," although they are quite capable of defending themselves if need be. Unlike Horse Dragons, Unicorn Dragons are solitary; they do not travel in groups. They breath fire and smoke through their nostrils, not their mouths. Some people blame forest fires on Unicorn Dragons, although Unicorn Dragons are generally not destructive.
They breed only once every decade or so, and produce a single egg, which both the male and female watch over until it hatches. The female then takes over teaching the hatchling how to hunt and take care of itself.
