Homebrew Amalthean (Unicorn-person) Species Details
Amaltheans, like tieflings, typically have horns and tails, though some may lack or attempt to hide these traits; even so, they will retain a blaze upon their forehead or strange coloration in their hair. They tend to have a fine layer of hair on their bodies, especially on their chests. Some also may have this extra fluff on their jawline, the backs of their calves, or their forearms.
Like unicorns, Amaltheans retain innate magical abilities and good-aligned dispositions, though they are not as strong in this reduced form. They have a tendency to gravitate towards other good-aligned creatures and may display aggression towards evil-aligned creatures.

Age: Without regaining their form as a unicorn, Amaltheans live for around 300 years.
