There's also the matter of the qilin's inconsistent design to consider. Though some of the qilin-esque traits also fit the profile of a classic unicorn, that still doesn't totally eliminate the possibility. ◊ Their are some visual similarities between the design and the example image, plus qilin are generally considered to be the Chinese equivalent of unicorns and it would probably be safer legal-wise. Using the same hints as explained above, except assuming that they will be an antagonist with a sympathetic backstory and/or misguided motivations behind their actions. The Dev Team recently (as of this writing) dropped a mysterious, lone sillhouette of a unicorn… that is, lone except for the sillhouette of the foreboding-looking book from one of the earliest teasers, along with the subtitle, ' Dark Is Not Evil, just… misunderstood.' It's possible that the unicorn will be either a well-meaing mage who tries using the book's secrets for a good cause but gets in over her head, or a sort of Dark Magical Girl note assuming the unicorn is, in fact, female who knowingly practices in Black Magic while still fighting on the side of good.
