Diet:
Life essences of living things
Small fish
Feeding habits:
If you notice the lack of a lower jaw, which limits their ability to eat, so they feast on the souls of the living at their choosing. They will eat fish – spearing them with their spined tail barbs and then downing them whole.
Other special habits:
Travel in small herds of about 4 to 8 individuals with one stallion.
They make a low, haunting and hollow cry on full moon nights and as they move from territory to territory – spooking wildlife away from them.
Relationship with humans:
Usually called Unicorn of the Marshes, humans close to where these unicorns thrive tend to keep away from them. Since they feed on the life essences of living things, including humanoid beings, they are fear among humans and other humanoids. There is a legend, like most unicorn legends, of a young virgin able to draw one in and have it sleep with her – but there is a darker side of this tale.
The legend with Unicorn of the Marshes goes that young virgin goes out and waits. If one comes, she mustn’t move. Usually, the Unicorn of the Marshes will circle, looking at her with his inhuman hollow eyeless sockets and then stand before her, watching. If it leaves, troubled times will come. If it consumes the life essence of the virgin, the town will be spared from any afflictions.
