Kirin

Kirin by Stone Gargoyle

I did this version of the Chinese Unicorn because I really didn't like the writeup of the Ki-Lin in the Monsters & Animals book. This brings it more in line with the western unicorn.

The Kirin is a very virtuous animal which has a singular horn (like a deer antler) and scales. These are creatures of magic like the Unicorn, and are psychic sensitives of good alignment. They can automatically sense the presence of evil creatures. They typically protect good beings and innocent children of any race, and only allow creatures of an innocent nature and of very good alignment close to them.
