The bunicorn is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series. Introduced in Dragon Quest III, it is a grey-furred rabbit with a large spiral horn on its head and a hare-raising temperament.
Characteristics[edit]
Bunicorns are rabbits with a singular horn, parodying the fabled unicorns. They have grey fur, and the horn is often a yellowish brown shade. Unlike real-life lagomorphs, bunicorns are fiercely territorial and will think nothing of skewering a human that crosses their path.
As enemies typically encountered at the start of a game, bunicorns are not particularly strong, though they typically outweigh the likes of Slimes. Due to this, bunicorns are usually a threat to players who take to traveling too far before getting better equipped and leveled at the start of their journey. In later games, they gained the ability to build up their strength in order to perform more powerful charging attacks against unsuspecting adventurers. According to their monster info in X, vicious bunicorns are able to alter the hardness of their horns based on their opponent and their horns can serve as crafting materials for weapons.

The monster drops meat upon its defeat. Bunicorn meat is a crafting material, used to create (with coal) a bunicorn steak, which fills the hunger meter by 20% and increases attack power for a short time. A bunicorn steak with bread creates the even more useful bunny burger, which fills the hunger meter by 80% and also increases attack power for a short time.
