Unicorns are monsters in monster high that are similar to centaurs as they can walk on four legs or two as Neighthan's mother is said to be able to do this. Unicorns are mythological animals resembling a horse or a goat with a single horn on its forehead. The unicorn appeared in early Mesopotamian artworks, and it also was referred to in the ancient myths of India and China. The earliest description in Greek literature of a single-horned (Greek monokerōs, Latin unicornis) animal was by the historian Ctesias (c. 400 BCE), who related that the Indian wild ass was the size of a horse, with a white body, purple head, and blue eyes, and on its forehead was a cubit-long horn coloured red at the pointed tip, black in the middle, and white at the base. Those who drank from its horn were thought to be protected from stomach trouble, epilepsy, and poison. It was very fleet of foot and difficult to capture. The actual animal behind Ctesias’s description was probably the Indian rhinoceros.
Description
Unicorns are humanoid monsters that come in different shapes and sizes, unicorns can walk on four legs similar to a centaur. But unicorns can shapeshift to have two legs but still have hooves for feet. Neighthan is an exception to this most likely because he's a hybrid. Unicorns also have tails and a horn on their forehead.
