====Black Unicorn====
<pre{{log2}}>From muzzle to tail, the unicorn is an uncompromising shade of black with a blue-violet sheen resembling that found on a raven's wing. His eyes are onyx-hued, flecked with bits of silver so delicate they seem little more than curls of metallic leafing. His mane and tail are long and silky, and the tufts on his fetlocks bear the same lustrous coloring common to corvids. A subtle shimmer of silver glints in the natural keratinous formation of his hooves, and his horn is a matte-finished argent spiral.</pre>

<pre{{log2}}>Kaleidoscopic mists disperse into the air as the a gold-horned immaculate white unicorn shuffles back and forth, attempting to gain your attention. She approaches you, butting her head into your body, carefully aiming her gold spiral horn away while she awaits a thorough rubbing.

A gold-horned immaculate white unicorn meanders over to you, turning to her side to stare unblinkingly at you. Several seconds pass and you blink, the unicorn whinnying in delight at her victory. You share a moment of quiet reflection before you both turn away and you murmur something about a rematch.

A gold-horned immaculate white unicorn glances invitingly around the area, turning her head side to side as though in search of something. With a subtle snort, the unicorn whinnies and turns around, beginning another search on the opposite side.

Raising a foreleg, the white unicorn paws impatiently at the ground.

A gold-horned immaculate white unicorn canters about in a small circle, her smooth hooves creating geometric designs across the ground. She completes her loop, bowing her head low to admire her creation.

A gold-horned immaculate white unicorn turns her head to the side as she flicks her free-flowing opalescent tail to-and-fro. Emerging from the confines of her white coat is a single orange monarch butterfly, tumbling to the ground before escaping into the open air. The unicorn snorts as though entertained, glancing about for another playmate.

Noticing an ebon-laced orange monarch butterfly, a gold-horned immaculate white unicorn begins to curiously follow the bug around the area. The unicorn stays within reach for a long moment before the orange monarch butterfly twists around and flutters down to rest upon the unicorn's gold spiral horn. The a gold-horned immaculate white unicorn remains still for a long moment before the orange monarch butterfly rises once more and flies away.

A gold-horned immaculate white unicorn suddenly rears back, her spiraled gold spiral horn glinting in sunlight as she lands softly back to the ground. She whinnies to herself in amusement before repeating the process once again.</pre>

Horse mounts were the first type of mount introduced at Rumor Woods as part of a new mount system in 2019. Horses are summoned by reins, which are a summoning item that stores their information but is considered a separate item. There are three tiers of horse mounts: common, uncommon, and rare. All horse mounts share a similar set up with their appearance. As with other mounts, horses can be given a name visible to the owner with a Potion of Naming, available at Evermore Hollow.

Unicorn mounts, while sold alongside horse mounts, are technically not classified as horses. See their article for more information about them.

Appearance

He/she stands just 16 hands at the withers. He has a well-muscled body with a healthy dun coat. He has a square face, a short forelock, and pointed ears. He has a long mane that flows loose down his neck and a full black tail.

Common

Common mounts are the least expensive option when considering purchase. They are restricted to being just "horse", and are limited in alteration options that may be allowed through the Ostler.
