Description

A ki-rin was similar to a unicorn in some respects, as it was a noble equine creature with a single horn. It had a stag-like body, but it was covered in golden scales instead of fur. Its horn and hooves were pinkish in color, and it had a thick golden mane of hair. Its eyes were deep violet.   Ki-rins themselves worshiped their own patron deity Koriel, though they had no priests among their ranks.

A Kirin’s Lair

A Kirin’s lair stands on a windy mountain, in some old ruins of an ancient civilisation.   Regional Effects Transformed by the creature’s celestial presence, the domain of a Kirin might include any of the following magical effects:   The weather seems to be always stormy, and the sky is covered by dark clouds. Lightning bolts strike the ground repeatedly. At any moment when out of combat, and at the beginning of its combat turn, every creature (except the Kirin) must succeed on a DC 5 Dexterity saving throw or takes 4 (1d8) Lightning damages. Due to the deafening thunder, every creature (except the Kirin) has a disadvantage on concentration rolls to keep chanelling a spell while in combat. If the Kirin dies, these effects end after 1d10 days.
