Unicorns & Legends
by Pecsitonic
Unicorns & Legends brings tameable unicorns, pegasi and an alien horse to the world, reached through the Ethereal Meadows biome and a set of magical items for 1.20.1.
What it does
Unicorns & Legends adds a set of fantasy horses to a Minecraft world, beginning with the Ethereal Meadows biome, a magical area where flowers such as Carnelian grow. The flower used for crafting here is a different plant, which is consumed to make Galaxy Essence and summon the Galaxy Horse. The biome also holds newer creatures, most notably the white Rainbow Unicorn, which accepts food such as carrots, apples or wheat. The Rainbow Unicorn cannot be ridden.
Pegasi come from a Pegasus Orb, a craftable item built from a unicorn horn and a small iron piece. Holding the orb in the hand and right-clicking it transforms a unicorn into a purple Pegasus. A Pegasus equipped with a saddle and special armor can fly and throw snowballs at enemies, but only while the armor is worn, and it can be removed with scissors. The mod also includes a Lava Horse and an Alien Horse that hatches from an egg found after reaching a meteorite, while meteorites hold valuable materials for special saddles. Unicorns & Legends requires Geckolib, and the files are released for Forge and NeoForge on 1.20.1 only, under All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.

How it compares
Legends Of Slugterra is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 that is also client and server and MIT licensed, so it covers a different theme. Wings, Horns, and Hooves: The Ultimate Unicorn Mod is Forge-only for 1.18.2 – 1.20.2, while Ad Astra: Planets+ is server required with client optional across Fabric, Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 1.20.4, a server-side option for planet travel rather than horses.

"if anyone here uses the "ad astra mod" (mod about traveling to other planets) and is thinking of using the "alien horse" in an alien planet, remember to add them to the "lives_without_oxygen" and "can_survive_extreme_cold" mob lists in ad astra."
