Unicorn. : V - Skyrim

» Mon Sep 20, 2010 4:39 am

The unicorn seems to be a creature of terrible beauty, whereas Skyrim is the freakin North.

So you're telling me, the most metal creature ever created shouldn't live in the land of the most metal race of TES? For shame.

I don't really consider the jolly drunken Nord people as the most KVLT race of Tamriel. I always imagine that their music of choice would be something like your average crass Europop/dance or rave music with the speakers turned up to eleven. http://www.google.com/images?um=1&hl=en&q=swedish+%22dance+bands%22&biw=1440&bih=743.

That being said, a rainbow pooping unicorn is the way to go.

edit:sorry, I misread that as 'black metal'.

I have a screenshot of my ugly-ass, glistening, near-naked Breton riding an Oblivion unicorn (in all his shining, nvde glory), but damned if I can find it at the moment...

If there are going to be unicorns, I want them to be http://www.keepbusy.net/thumbs/robot-unicorn-attack-heavy-metal.jpg http://www.keepbusy.net/thumbs/robot-unicorn-attack.jpg. In addition, when you ride them, the song associated with their version is played.

No! You reminded me of the cargo hold on Mothership Zeta who was full of robot horses, that looked pretty weird.

well, unicorns only appear to the pure of heart, or those with purity or something

No, don't want to see the unicorn and highly doubt we will. However, Another fantasy type of character that you have to hunt would be cool. It would have to keep with lore and be unique. Or perhaps, we could do a hunt for Dragon eggs or a Dragon's newborn. I liked the quest, but think it should be changed up a bit. Beth has consistently changed things, from game to game, so I doubt we'll see another unicorn. An anoying bosmer, a lying Khajiit yes, a unicorn no....IMHO.

Looks like I just may have to mod robot unicorns, or a rainbow and fiery black unicorn in the game that play their Robot Unicorn Attack music when being ridden.

Unicorns have absolutely no place whatsoever in Skyrim.

If we are going to have a "secret" mount like the Unicorn (If we have mounts at all which is unlikely after hearing the podcast in my opinion) it should be something like a polar bear.

That wouldn't include my Breton, then, I guess...

Yes.

And I want it to look something like http://www.luisroyo.fr/galeries/artbooks/malefic/Memory-in-White.jpg.

Well in Oblivion Unicorn visually was just another horse but with horn, (horn even was not long and pointy) through unicorn have some interesting powers and behavior.

Looks much more unique and mystical
I use some mods for achieve similar look for this beast in oblivion.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWXekpev02Q syle unicorn please! Why so much hate for the unicorn you miserable lot? I would also love to see more mystical creatures in Skyrim just like Red Dead.

Four horses of the apocolypse? Yes please! (skeleton death mount for the win!)

I much prefer Achievement Hunter's version of a http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXqnqQSabfw (That video was made before R* announced undead nightmare)

I'd rather not see a unicorn again. Though, I did enjoy the quest to go kill it. :evil:

on that end I hope the Cuirass of the Savior's Hide returns. Both my Morrowind and Oblivion characters wear it and wield Mehrune's Razor

Edit* I really hope Hircine's quest is more akin to the one in Daggerfall. (if there is one) Involving, you know, slaying a werebeast

Oh ye who are cold of heart.

It's for the greater good -the greater good-

No. SHUT UP FOR A MINUTE .

Bigfoot > Unicorn.

I don't see why there -shouldn't- be a Unicorn or two. Maybe even a herd of them.

There's nothing innately wrong with them. People just like to hate on them because people just like to hate things. It doesn't really make much sense, from any point, to DISLIKE unicorns and want to kill them. if anything, that points less to a valid reason for there being no unicorns... and a deeply-rooted psychological condition.

Granted, I'm a fan of the Achievement Hunters "Bearicorn" too... so...

... yeah... I won't play therapist or anything...

*snigger* Bearicorn...
