Unicorns

Unicorns are legendary creatures that has been described since antiquity as a beast with a single large, pointed, spiraling horn projecting from its forehead. Unicorns are the offspring of a male Narwhal and a female horse, or a mare. Commonly described as an extremely wild woodland creature, a symbol of purity and grace, which could be captured only by a virgin. Its horn was said to have the power to render poisoned water potable and to heal sickness.

Narwhals and Horses are not only different species, but differnt creatures, with different numbers of chromosomes. Unicorns are reputed to be more patient and long-lived than horses with intelligence rivaling that of sentient mortals.
