Description
“Unicorns are in the world again. No sorrow will live in me as long as that joy, save one...and I thank you for that part, too.”
Amalthea, also known as the Lady of Lurue, is the last true unicorn. She is a beautiful and immortal white unicorn who is the protector of her forest home and was believed to be the last of her kind. This drove her to find the other unicorns, who are rumored to have disappeared until it was later revealed that they were herded to the far ends of the world by an elemental entity known as the Red Bull. The Unicorn is free-spirited and open-minded, showing concern and compassion to all around her. Her personality changes as her story progressed; she also becomes saddened when she discovers the fate of her kind and when she turned into a human by Schmendrick the Magician, she greatly suffered from shock to the point where she broke down, claiming that she is more afraid of her mortal form than even the Red Bull. She is very much a lost, lonely, frightened soul who seeks to find what matters most to her in the world.
Lair and Lair Actions
A Unicorn’s Lair
A unicorn’s lair might be an ancient ruin overgrown with vines, a misty clearing surrounded by mighty oaks, a flower-covered hilltop alive with butterflies, or some other serene woodland location.
Regional Effects
Transformed by the creature’s celestial presence, the domain of a unicorn might include any of the following magical effects:
- Open flames of a non-magical nature are extinguished within the unicorn’s domain. Torches and campfires refuse to burn, but closed lanterns are unaffected. Environmental fires go out after one turn.
- Creatures native to the unicorn’s domain have an easier time hiding; they have advantage on all Dexterity (Stealth) checks made to hide.
- When a good-aligned creature casts a spell or uses a magical effect that causes another good-aligned creature to regain hit points, the target regains the maximum number of hit points possible for the spell or effect.
- Curses affecting any good-aligned creature are suppressed.
- Unicorns can always sense a lie told in their presence. The area within 60 feet radius sphere of the unicorn acts as a permanent, passive Zone of Truth.
If the unicorn dies, these effects end immediately. Unless killed by a cursed or artifact item, the unicorn will regain life within 1d20 days.
