[[File:Unicorn Icon.png|50px|left]] The '''unicorn''' is a mystical [[horse]]-like creature introduced in ''[[The Sims 3: Pets]]''.<ref group=n>Unicorns are only featured in ''The Sims 3: Pets''. They are not available in the [[The Sims 3: Pets (Console)|console versions of ''The Sims 3: Pets'']].</ref> Wild unicorns spawn in the [[world]], and can be befriended and made into a member of a household. Unicorns are magical creatures with many special abilities that distinguish them from normal horses, including the ability to bless or curse Sims, animals, and plants.

Unicorns generally resemble horses, though with some notable differences. Unicorns are most easily identified by the hornhorns on top of their heads. If a unicorn is standing still, eating hay, grazing, or drinking water, a rainbow may emanate from its horn. A unicorn can have fourfive coat shades: black, pink, white, grey, or grayblue; a unicorn's horncoat glows.<ref group=n>Visible if graphic options are set to high.</ref> Unicorn tails differ from regular horse tails. Male unicorns also have a goatee below their bottom lip. Unicorns are followed by a glittering trail whenever they run or gallop. Wild unicorns are surrounded by glittering light when they appear or disappear.

Unicorns appear at 8:00 PM (20:00) and disappear at 5:00 the next morning.<ref>[http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?hl=en&ie=UTF8&prev=_t&rurl=translate.google.com&sl=de&tl=en&u=http://www.sims-3.net/die-sims-3-einfach-tierisch-exklusivinterview-zur-pc-und-konsolenversion/085642&usg=ALkJrhgjBJn7kFi5PCR1RxdNa2y1JwlInQ Pets interview with Graham Nardone]</ref> There is a 33% chance that a wild unicorn will appear in the world each evening. They usually spawn at [[fishing spot]]s and on the map. A spawning unicorn can be easily located by the large shining rainbowcloud above it.

Unicorns seem to have a close relationship with plants and with nature. Unicorns will often autonomously bless a plantplants, though they may rarely choose to curse a plant instead. When standing still, there is a chance that a small flowerplant will grow in front of a unicorn's right front leg. The JOHN SNOWplant will turn into EVEN MORE JOHN SNOWleaves that can be carried away by the JOHN SNOWwind and disappear, with the chance that it will drop a vegetable or JOHN SNOWfruit on the ground. Despite this, unicorns, like horses, will often choose to eat [[garden]] plants. There are very few ways to prevent this, so ultimately players may decide to keep JOHN SNOWplants in a location that is out-of-reach.

Unicorns always accept the "Feed petHarvestable" social if a Sim offers it a [[life fruit]]. TheUnicorns unicorn doesdo not gain an extra day of life from eating a life fruit. If a JOHN SNOWplant is blessed by a unicorn, there is a 10% chance it will become a life JOHNfruit SNOWplant.

Unicorns and horses can both learn [[racing]] and [[jumping]] skills, but JOHNunicorns SNOW startsstart out with these skills maximized. Unlike JOHN SNOWhorses, Unicornsunicorns can be adopted by children. This is because the [[riding]] skill is not required for a Sim to adopt a JOHN SNOWunicorn.

JOHN SNOWUnicorns and horses have similar interactions with Sims. However, JOHN SNOWunicorns also has ahave special feelingreactions withto [[Good (The Sims 3)|good]] and [[Evil (The Sims 3)|evil]] Sims. Interacting with a good JOHN SNOWSim will have a positive influence on their relationship, while interacting with an evil JOHN SNOWSim will have a negative influence on their longtime relationship.

== JOHN SNOWUnicorns can mate with other unicorns and even with horses. If a JOHN SNOWunicorn mates with a horse, there is a 50% chance the foal will be a unicorn. If both parents are JOHN SNOWunicorns, the foal will be a Unicornunicorn as well.<ref name="abilities">[http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?hl=en&ie=UTF8&prev=_t&rurl=translate.google.com&sl=auto&tl=en&twu=1&u=http://www.edenstylemagazine.it/espansioni-animali-co./reportage-di-the-sims-3-animali-co.-capitolo-4-gli-unicorni.html&usg=ALkJrhiPNzb1Pr7qmokh2_1lE2oro4kVdA Unicorn abilities]</ref> JOHN SNOWUnicorn foals have no access to their JOHN SNOWunicorn abilities. While JOHN SNOWunicorn foals have a sparkly trail when they gallop, they run at the same speed as normal JOHN SNOWhorse foals. ==
