Combat
War Unicorns normally attack only when defending themselves or their rider. They either charge, impaling foes with their horns like lances, or strike with their hooves. The horn is a +3 magic weapon, though its power fades if removed from the unicorn.
Magic Circle against Evil (Su): This ability continuously duplicates the effect of the spell. A war unicorn cannot suppress this ability.
Spell-Like Abilities: War Unicorns can use detect evil at will as a free action.
Once per day a war unicorn can use greater teleport to move anywhere within its home. It cannot teleport beyond the forest boundaries nor back from outside.
A war unicorn can use cure light wounds three times per day and cure moderate wounds once per day (caster level 5th) by touching a wounded creature with its horn. Once per day it can use neutralize poison (DC 21, caster level 8th) with a touch of its horn. The save DC is Charisma-based.
Wild Empathy (Ex): This power works like the druid’s wild empathy class feature, except that a war unicorn has a +6 racial bonus on the check.
Skills: Unicorns have a +4 racial bonus on Move Silently checks. *War Unicorns have a +3 competence bonus on Survival checks within the boundaries of their forest.
A war Unicorns can fight while carrying a rider, but the rider cannot also attack unless he or she succeeds on a Ride check.
