A unicorn in Cantermore.
A unicorn is a playable race in Legends of Equestria, whose most notable trait is the ability to use magic. Unicorn players start off with 350 Health, 55 Energy, 14 Health Regen, 12 Energy Regen, 307 Speed, 5 Stamina Regen, 20 Magic Casting and 20 Magic Resist at level 1.
The starting town and home for unicorns is Cantermore.
In-Game Description[]
"Often considered higher cultured than the other races, Unicorns have an affinity for magic. They have a spell for every occasion; offensive, defensive, or just for fun. This boost in magical power comes with poor defensive power, however, so unicorns will want to keep their distance from enemies."
Abilities and spells[]
Unicorns have the slowest walking, galloping and sprinting speeds in-game, only being slightly slower than Pegasus by about 1%. This is made up for by the unicorns' ability to teleport.
Unicorns are the only race that can use magic and science skills. A unicorn's horn will glow and give off a faint light while a unicorn is casting magic skills, as well as while while a unicorn is using their race exclusive basic skills Teleport and Horn Glow. The color of a unicorn's magic will match their own eye color.
Unicorns' skills are listed below, according to talents:

Advantages and Disadvantages[]
Advantages[]
- Teleportation spell with a limited range, which is one of the fastest methods of movement. Furthermore, teleportation consumes energy rather than stamina, allowing for unicorns to alternate between running and teleporting
- Various types of magic spells that are helpful while fighting
- Can enchant artifacts to add helpful effects to them
- Can use Science talent to research and create items that are helpful to all pony races
Disadvantages[]
- Tied with pegasus for lowest base stats (except for speed)
- Slowest walking, galloping and sprinting speeds of the three pony races
- Magic skills can be very energy-hungry for lower level unicorns that haven't increased their maximum energy much
Trivia[]
For over 5,000 years, humans have depicted or described Unicorns, less in their myths than in their natural history references. There are various theories about where the descriptions came from, including the idea that it's a mangled description of an Elasmotherium, rhinoceros, or gazelle.
