It’s probably safe to say he’s the most glorious example of his species ever. He’d never say that himself of course…He’s a friendly, soft-spoken, good-natured sort, with a great love for children. When battling evil however, he’s a fearsome opponent indeed. Those who have seen him defend the Grove against evil intruders, sometimes whisper that there must be two completely different personalities in the mind of that big, friendly beast.Skerrit, the unicorn deity, send Henulon to serve Ehlonna, goddess of the woodlands, as part of pact of friendship between the two deities. Henulon has remained faithful to Ehlonna ever since, though he still worships Skerrit as his deity. Ehlonna’s court is called ‘The Grove of Unicorns’. The Grove is quite close to Skerrits realm, and is populated by bariaurs, celestial and half-celestial unicorns, celestial animals and eladrins. Maidens from all the elvish races (except drow) can also be found here, both normal and celestial ones.Ehlonna has given Herulon the honorary title ‘Guardian of the Grove’, but he is also referred to as ‘Skerrit’s Gift’ in some of the songs and epics that’s written about him.Henulons advice is often sought out by bariaurs, elves and unicorns alike, for his great intellect, wisdom and knowledge is well known. Disputes and arguments within the realm are often settled by asking Henulons opinion.CombatBefore entering combat, Henulon will take advantage of his amazing speed; moving to stay out of melee until he’s had time to cast Haste on himself, activating the Fly-effect from his Horseshoes of Skerrit and then going into rage. With both Haste and rage in effect Henulon has these statistics:AC: 56 (-2 size, +13 Dex, +10 natural, +12 insight, +12 luck, +2 deflection, +1 Haste, -2 rage)Speed: 240 ft., Fly 90 ft. (perfect)Full attack: Horn + 66 (1d8+48), 2 hooves +61 (1d4+31) Skewering Charge: Deals 4d6+68 points of damage. Bullrush check = 1d20+85Saves: Fortitude +44, Reflex +36, Will +31He likes to enter melee with his skewering charge attack. If fighting multiple intruders, he’ll use his charge attack to bull-rush one opponent; a spellcaster if the group include one, as far as possible from the rest of the group. Well out of the way he’ll try to finish off his first target before the groups melee experts have time to catch up.He rarely uses his power attack feat against an enemy until he’s had the chance to make one full attack against that enemy and thus had the chance to get an idea of his opponents armor class.All of Henulons natural weapons are treated as Epic and Good weapons for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.</blockquote>
