Can you say "U" for Unicorn. The unicorn is a legendary creature usually depicted with the body of a horse, but with a single – usually spiral – horn growing out of its forehead (hence its name – cornus being Latin for 'horn'). The unicorn's blood and horn are supposedly mystical healers. Today we know many variations in the Unicorn's form. He may have cloven or solid hooves. His body may be that of a deer, or a bull, or a goat, or equine. Sometimes he has the tail of a horse: at other times that of a lion. He may have the legs of a deer, a horse, or a goat. He may be white in color, in which case it is a purity of the color virtually unknown elsewhere, but he may equally well be black, or gold, or indigo, or of many colors. His horn, the alicorn, may be straight, or curved back, spiraled simply as a Narwhal's tooth, or in a more complex goat-like curl. Just as his appearance may vary, so does his role in the world: sometimes he is simply a beautiful animal. At other times he has an intelligence at least on a par with our own, and is famed for his gentle wisdom. Often he is a creature of divinity, pure of heart and spirit beyond any mortal's reach, possessed of incredible powers of creation and healing.
