The writers of the Monster Manual sure know how to make things sound epic.
"When evil threatens to overwhelm the mortal world, the gods may see fit to intervene... a Paladin astride a unicorn is a sign of the gods’ direct intervention in the affairs of the mortal realm. It is a holy alliance made to cleave the heads from Demons and banish devils back to the Nine Hells."
Like, I just wanted a pretty unicorn mount, but now I'm the embodiment of pure Divine Retribution.

my paladin: so what your telling me is, its a horse WITH EXTRA RAMMING DAMAGE!
the angel who is just trying to get him a mount: well its a bit more tha-
paladin:EXTRA RAMMING DAMAGE!

So a unicorn isn't a horse or equine it's actually literally a goat. It makes hell of a much more sense. A horn, cloven hooves, male chin beard,

I once forgot about the whole "Only women can ride unicorns" piece of lore during a one off and a male elf player was given a ride. A player in character said.
"wait can't only women ride you?" there was a *running theory in the party that the male elf wizard was a princess in disguise* and thinking on my feet i had the unicorn say:
"Some of us are gay Jaren." This caused a few minutes of laughter etc.
After the session the Elven wizard player came up to me and revealed that he was indeed playing a woman disguised as a man so it all worked out by chance.

13:00 "What do unicorns do when they are relaxing in the forest? Well first of all, they YEET."

[KaminaCicada]

Please, Pegasus and Nightmares next.

It makes sense that Unicorns spend all day looking at themselves. It sees itself anew each time. It notices a new, intricate, beautiful detail about itself every day.

[kaelang]

so, fun fact: in Ye Olde Times, unicorns were considered very vicious creatures to fight, nearly impossible to take on


there's a reason the unicorn is a representative of scotland

[matts_rantz]

Hey Unicorn : "What time is it?"
Unicorn reply: "I like oranges!"

[swdfsdft]

"The beard is the only way to tell a male unicorn from a female unicorn" brother...

[Thoralmir]

I'm just imagining a unicorn talking like a stoned surfer dude.

Of course, the Fable Unicorn of great fantasy is a majestic creature of both Pure and beauty. However, in reality it is just a giant Prehistoric Rhinoceros from the Ice Age.

In one game I had wild magic summon a unicorn while fighting an evil creature "boss". We were pretty low level so the unicorn just one shotthe evil creature lol.

I would love to see your take on the Qilin/Ki-rin, sometimes misnamed as the Asian unicorn. It'd make an interesting comparison to the standard European unicorn.

I’m chronically ill and disabled. These videos help me fall asleep and calm down when waiting for my meds to kick in, and they help me get through the day. Thank you!

[Gargoyle]

From what I heard only male unicorns will show themselves to pure, virgin, maidens, but female unicorns will show themselves to pure, virgin, youths.

[jroden]

Unicorns are FAR more badass than I could have thought. Awesome work!!

[laffuntilucry]

Loving the fey type creatures you have been covering in the last few videos. Tons of inspiration for fey inspired campaigns or in the very least encounters. Thanks again, keep up the good work and looking forward to your future videos!

This will add to my roleplay techniques if and whenever I get to play my character who was transformed from a unicorn due to being struck by wild magic. So adding a lack of knowing how to kindle a fire to the list of such knowledge as knowing how to put on clothes or why it isn't appropriate to trot around naked in public
