Brown Unicorn

Its coat is light tan, with a darker brown tail, horn and eyes. Some know it as a roanicorn.

Within 60 feet, a brown unicorn is always in mental contact with every other brown unicorn through magical, non-psionic telepathy, and its ESP reads one other creature each round. Both run constantly, so it is surprised only by long-range missile fire. Three times a day it casts a special sleep that always affects at least one target whatever its level. Creatures up to 4+4 HD succumb as usual; stronger ones may save vs. spells.

A stallion leads several mares and rings his range with a mental barrier that blocks no one but tells other brown unicorns and psionically sensitive beings they have crossed the line. On very hot days these unicorns may bury themselves in sand. Pure-hearted maidens of any human or demihuman race may ride them.

They graze on cacti, desert blooms and sparse grass and can last four days with no food or water. The horn yields a potion that places the drinker in suspended animation until dispelled; a save vs. poison avoids it.
