==OverviewAppearance==
Unicorns generally resemble horses, though with some notable differences. Unicorns are most easily identified by the horns 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 five coat shades: black, pink, white, grey, or blue; a unicorn's coat 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 gallop. Wild unicorns are surrounded by glittering light when they appear or disappear.

They usually spawn at Fishing Type of Lots and on the map. No matter what traits a Sim has, a big shining cloud may appear above a lot. Under the cloud is the Wild Unicorn, with sparkles coming down from the Cloud and onto the Unicorn. At 5:00 AM the unicorn will disappear in a burst of sparkles, as seen below.
 
==Behavior==
Sims can try to tame Wild Unicorn to join the player's household. However, the Sim will need to be best friends with it first, and also be 'best friends forever' with 3 household animals. If the Sim doesn't abide by the unicorn's wishes it will decline the Sim's request. Unicorns like gardening and they often bless plants if they are near them; they almost '''never''' curse plants. Once a Wild Unicorn has been invited into the family the floating cloud above it disappears. Once a Wild Unicorn is invited into a Household and it accepts, another Unicorn will be generated and will become the new Wild Unicorn, since there can only be '''One Wild Unicorn Per Neighborhood''' at any given time. You can have multiple unicorns in your household. Just like a Sim can, a unicorn can be added to the active household through [[testingcheatsenabled]]. After entering the cheat, the player can shift-click on the unicorn and select "Add to household", which will immediately add the unicorn to the family. This will not fulfill the Lifetime Wish "The Fairy-Tale Finder" however.

There are very few ways to prevent this, so ultimately players may decide to keep plants in a location that is out-of-reach.
 
Unicorns always accept the "Feed Harvestable" social if a Sim offers it a [[life fruit]]. Unicorns do not gain an extra day of life from eating a life fruit. If a plant is blessed by a unicorn, there is a 10% chance it will become a life fruit plant.
==Appearance==
 
Unicorns may be similar in appearance to a normal Horse, however there are some traits in their appearance that make them different. A Unicorn has a horn on its head which is the main trait of their appearance. Unicorns may have four coat shades: Black, Pink, White and Grey. A unicorn will also have a different tail and males will have a goatee growing from the their bottom lip.
*Unicorns and horses can both learn [[racing]] and [[jumping]] skills, but unicorns start out with these skills maximized. Unlike horses, Unicornsunicorns can be adopted by children. This is because the [[riding]] skill is not required for a Sim to adopt a Unicornunicorn.
 
*'''Unicorns and horses have asimilar interactions with Sims. However, unicorns also have special feelingreactions withto [[Good (The Sims 3)|good]] and [[Evil (The Sims 3)|evil]] Sims'''. Interacting with a '''good''' Sim will have a positive influence on their relationship, while interacting with an '''evil''' Sim will have a negative influence on their longtime relationship.
 
Unicorns live three times as long as ordinary horses.
 
==Taming unicorns==
Sims, [[child]] or older, can try to tame a wild unicorn so it can join their household. The Sim will need to be best friends with it first, and also be 'best friends forever' with 3 household animals. If the Sim doesn't meet these requirements, it will decline the Sim's request. Some Sims may have the "The Fairy-Tale Finder" [[lifetime wish]], which is fulfilled by taming a unicorn.
 
Once a wild unicorn has been invited into the family, the floating cloud above it disappears. Once a wild unicorn is tamed, another wild unicorn will be generated; a world can only have one wild unicorn at any given time. A household can contain more than one unicorn.
 
Just like Sims, a unicorn can be added to the active household through [[testingcheatsenabled]]. After entering the cheat, the player can shift-click on the unicorn and select "Add to household", which will immediately add the unicorn to the family. However, this will not fulfill the lifetime wish "The Fairy-Tale Finder".

If a Unicornunicorn mates with a Horsehorse, there is a 50% Chancechance the Foalfoal will be a Unicornunicorn. and ifIf both parents are Unicornsunicorns, the foal will be 100% 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>.
