📋 About This Mod

This mod was not made by me, it is a port of Holugar's Classic Skyrim mod "Unicorn" which can be found at http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/13606/?

Holugar gave proper permission to anyone to convert this file on Aug 22, 2016.

UPDATES: Version 2. 2a is a port of Holugar's 2. 2 Faithful Companion version of Unicorn.  Fixed walk away problem for people who don't like to use other mods for this issue. Now unicorn is more cautious and unaggressive, he won't attack the player if he hurts unicorn by accident.

Version 2. 2b makes Unicorn vulnerable, it has around 700 HP so it won't be killed too easily, and will flee from battle just like the 2. 2a version.

Version 2. 2test removes a dirty Shadowmere edit that was pointed out by user Iscamania please only download this version if you wish to test and report bugs.  If so please test Shadowmere specifically to make sure nothing is wrong with it.

Unicorn is back! After 200 years from Oblivion crisis, one mad conjurer somehow managed to resurrect this creature in Skyrim. You can find the Unicorn and unravel a secret of its mysterious appearance in abandoned camp near Falkreath Watchtower.

Description

This simple mod adds new creature called a Unicorn in the game. Unicorn is non hostile, cautious creature. Despite that it looks like horse, it behaves differently then horses. Unicorn only fights in self defence and never assist player against his foes in combat like vanilla players horse does. Dragons won't fight unicorn just simply ignore it. Also it has lore friendly stats like in Oblivion. Unicorn has damage reflection abilities, but this time creature is essential, it can't be killed so has no weaknesses like it had before.

You can find this creature in abandoned camp near the Falkreath watchtower (see picture).

To those who, somehow lost unicorn. Type in console: ''player.placeatme 14000d65 1''

First two numbers might vary depending on your load order, use command: ''help unicorn'' in console to find appropriate ID code.
