Unicorn

Created by the earth god Kaia, the Unicorn is one of Hireath's Equines and is native to Onea. A unicorn is always referred to as such, no matter how many horns it possesses. 
== Biology ==
The unicorn is as varied in form as any of Hireath's equines. Unicorns are born with telekinesis, as are all of Hireath's Equines.
=== Life cycle ===
A unicorn's horn doesn't start growing until the foal is around three months old, and often doesn't break through the skin until the child is around 6 months of age, making many unicorn foals nearly indistinguishable from horses. Some horns continue to grow for the unicorn's entire lives, whereas other horns might spread their base, or even send up a second horn- or cease growing altogether. It is generally understood to be a sign of good health for a unicorn's horn to continually grow, although some equines grow weary and file their horns into a more manageable size and shape, a process which does not hurt. If a horn is filed down to the base or receives a violent trauma (such as snapping in half) it often will not grow again, or if so, only slowly. Elder unicorn's do not experience any weakening of their horn(s), but the horns do often pale, growing translucent.
== Creation Rules: ==
=== The Unicorn can: ===
* Be modeled after any breed or mixture of breeds from real life (This includes other non horse equines such as quaggas and donkeys) . 
* Come in any natural color, and may have minor unnatural markings. No geometrical markings and no leopard or giraffe printed ponies, please!
* Have eyes that are any hue, and are permitted to be gradient or bi-colored.
* Have a mane and tail as long or textured as pleases. 
* Have horns as large or small as desired and in any shape (except for antlers). Horns can be made of metal, gem, or bone and can be any colour. 
* Have a "horse" tail or tasseled "lion" tail. Tasseled tail can have as much or as little hair as desired. 
* Have a beard, no matter the sex. 
* Have solid "horse" hooves or cloven hooves. Hooves can be natural, or of the same material as the horn. 
=== The Unicorn can not: ===
* Have sharp teeth or fangs (without a blessing that allows them to have such) 
* Have antlers
* Have more than two horns (without a rarity roll)
* Have horns located anywhere other than on their head/face
=== Rarity Rolls ===
* Create a unicorn with up to four distinct horns
* Create a unicorn with gem stones/crystals forming on its coat with up to 30% coverage. Stones do not have to match horn material or each other, and can be anywhere on body.
