Built by Kwalish the Techno-Mage on commission for the knight Lintelfaden. The unicorn is all chrome and shiny.

Upgrades
The unicorn can be upgraded with the following effects/traits, costing 1,000gp per upgrade previously added. Each trait can be chosen multiple times, increasing the effect and/or increasing the number of times per day it can be used:
  • Mandachord. Choose a song before the session, and tell your DM. You may play this song once during the session and, based on its lyrics, those effects take place (DM's discretion). A song can only ever be used once per campaign. The knight must have at least 1 level in bard to add this trait.
  • Hard Chrome. +1 AC as natural armor. Requires the sacrifice of a magic item that provides at least +1 AC.
  • Healing Touch. The unicorn touches another creature with its horn. The target magically regains 11 (2d8 + 2) hit points. In addition, the touch removes all diseases and neutralizes all poisons afflicting the target. Requires the sacrifice of a permanent healing magic item (for example, a staff of healing).
  • Teleport. The unicorn magically teleports itself, and up to three willing creatures it can see within 5 feet of it, along with any equipment they are wearing or carrying, to a location the unicorn is familiar with, up to 1 mile away. Requires the sacrifice of a magic item that provides teleport magic.
  • Shimmering Shield. The unicorn creates a shimmering, magical field around itself or another creature it can see within 60 feet of it. The target gains a +2 bonus to AC until the end of the unicorn’s next turn. Requires the sacrifice of a magic item with at least +1 AC and a shield spell scroll.
  • Self Repair. The unicorn's nanites repair the unicorn for 11 (2d8 + 2) hit points. Requires the sacrifice of a nanite canister.
  • Rocket Hooves! The unicorn gains a fly speed. Requires the sacrifice of a permanent magic item that grants flight.
  • Magic Resistance. The unicorn has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects. Requires a scroll of globe of invulnerability, which is consumed in the process.
  • Magic Weapons. The unicorn’s weapon attacks are magical. Requires the sacrifice of a +1 magic weapon (minimum).
  • LAZERS! The unicorn gains a laser attack which it shoots from its mouth. The exact type, range and damage are dependent on the ranged weapon sacrificed as part of the upgrade (for example, sacrificing a lazgun will grant the unicorn a 3d6 radiant attack).
