Homebrew Mortal Cursed Unicorn Species Details

medium sized with beautiful/handsome features, light or silvery hair and strange eyes; these creatures carry many physical traits from their previous life, including a spiraling, ivory horn which sprouts from their forehead. 

Should the creature be the result of a unicorn losing their horn, they can still retain some of their previous magical abilities depending on how they were created (divine intervention)

these creatures vary in stature, ranging from lithe and slim to muscular, just like any human would be. 

these creatures possess strikingly beautiful features and mesmerizing voices.

 

These human-like creatures are born when a Unicorn, through means of magic, curse or divine intervention, is transformed into a mortal. No longer a equine and losing much of their previous unicorn abilities, they retain strong healing magic and a righteous spirit; often fighting for the rights of magical creatures. Many of these former unicorns will abandon their previous lawful good alignments in favor of leaving behind their previous life as protectors, often being tempted by human sin and corruption with their new human emotions. 

These creatures tend to not live in their mortal bodies for very long, becoming weak willed from their previous immortal life, they have a high suicide rate and a tendency to spurn the company of others.

many of these creatures still possess memories and abilities from their former lives, which they can use to their advantage in battle, particularly, as healers for their party; however,some of these creatures may possess a wild spirited nature making them formidable in combat. 

much like real unicorns, these creatures natures vary from creature to creature and no two are exactly alike. Some may be strictly vegan whilst others crave to eat meat.

though these creatures are rare and not well known, they are considered the destruction of purity, as Unicorns are historically considered the symbol of holy purity and protection, and to change a unicorn from its natural shape and way is not only blasphemous, but considered the death of natural innocence and corruption of what good the world has to offer.
