- Shadhavar
Shadhavar is a type of
unicorn in Persian folklore which resembles agazelle with a single hollow horn. When wind blows through the horn, a melody is produced not unlike that from aflute . The music attracts both human and animal alike. Once an animal is near, the shadhavar will use the opportunity to attack its prey. The shadhavar can be thought of as an "Evil Unicorn."Many similarities can be drawn between the shadhavar and the
Sirens fromGreek mythology that endangeredOdysseus on his journey.A shadhavar is one of the mounts available in the online text-based game Legend of the Green Dragon.
