Karkadann

The Karkadann is a variety of unicorn that lives primarily in the Thunderlands, chzvhx

they can live in almost any environment.

Physical Description
Karkadanns are very heavyset unicorns with dark eyes and smooth, curved horns (as opposed to the straight, spiral horns found on most other unicorns). They are usually black, gray, brown, dun, or ivory. They are the unicorn version of draft horses. Their horns, while still on their foreheads, are shaped like that of a rhinoceros. Their horns are usually gold or black. Some have short tails and stiff manes. Some have long, lionlike manes and tails. A few have rare peacock tails.

Habitat
Though originally desert-dwellers (the word “karkadann” is Persian for “King of the Desert”), many karkadanns find the rocky crags of the Thunderlands suitable. They are not very good climbers, so most live in valley caves beneath the mountains. Though they could live comfortably in the Barranlands, they have an inborn fear of rocs. Rocs are the only things that frighten karkadanns.

Disposition
Karkadanns are the fiercest of all unicorns. They are extremely strong, able to kill elephants. Though they are good-natured like all unicorns, they can be extremely dangerous. They will not usually attack unless threatened, and collaborations between humans and horses make it unlikely that one would attack a human. They can be calmed by doves, and enjoy the company of the pigeons that perch on the rocks.

Diet
Karkadanns eat shrubs, grasses, and small tree branches.

Unique Magical Powers
Immense strength. Karkadanns also can gather energy from battles and use them to win.
