Unicorns

[Esther1981]

I know they are in the EP. Yesterday I created a sim and a horse in the new town, and I chose his LTW to adopt a unicorn. How do I complete this? I can't find it!

I chose the same LTW for one of my sims.  I assumed they would spawn in the wild kind of like the minor pets do, but I don't know if that is correct and if so, where they would be likely to show up.  I'm interested to hear if anyone has found one yet.

They spawn in the wild, with a very small chance. If you see a rainbow in your neighborhood, you better rush there. It's said that the chances to find one increase if your sim has a high Wild Life skill (it's a hidden skill, you raise it by befriending wildlife such as deers, wild horses, etc). Good luck to us!

Awesome info. Yes, good luck to all of us!! I still have not spotted one.

I heard somewhere that they will be for adoption where you adopt horses (like on the phone) but that could be incorrect information.

I have seen one once on my lot, and if you haven't interacted with wild animals much yet, they key is to use "watch" a bunch of times instead of trying to pet it and stuff because watching it builds trust. Eventually the Unicorn blessed my horse and warped away but hopefully it will come back so I can work on befriending it some more.

Good luck everyone!

I created a horse, than this morning was playing more, and my sim has level 10 riding, and I adopted one from the phone, but a unicorn wasn't a choice for me.  Good luck on befriending it Candyraver! And welcome to the forums!

It looks like you have to befriend all creatures (don't know how much that will be) and than you can search the sky at night for an Aurora that glows above the unicorns area.

I read something in the official forums here that said if you go into map view at night, you might see a rainbow colored light and that's where the unicorn will be.

My Sim just met and adopted a black unicorn. I found it totally by chance I was in map view when a rainbow shower appeared over Cinnamon Crest Falls. There were lots of wild horses all around as well as the unicorn.

It's the same as with adopting any of the other strays - first make friends with them then you get an option to "Invite Unicorn to join household" (I think that's how it's worded).

I wish I'd made adopting a unicorn my Sim's LTW!

@ficklemuse

That's awesome! My sim's lifetime wish is to adopt a unicorn. I haven't seen one yet, though. Did you find at night or during the day?

@ Moonsareblue

I meant to include that bit! it was 11pm on the 5th day of my first week.

ETA: Also you can teleport while you're riding a unicorn!

@ficklemuse

Wow, you did get really lucky to see it in your first week. Thanks for the info!

Here's a picture of what it looks like above the unicorn in map view.

That is amazing Ficklemuse. Can you post a picture of your unicorn?
Is it true the black unicorns come at night and the white one at day? Because that's what I'm thinking now.
