MAJOR ARTIFACT, RELIC
The Horn of Elethaere: This powerful relic is crafted from the severed horn of Elethaere, a mighty celestial unicorn blessed by the goddess Ehlonna. The horn was rumored to have been severed in battle with Erythnul and his minions countless centuries ago. Although Elethaere was slain in the battle, Ehlonna blessed the severed horn with incredible power, imbuing it with the last remnants of Elethaere's essence. Since that time, the horn has vanished and reappeared many times, each time in the possesion of a powerful mortal follower of Ehlonna.
The horn can, upon command, alter its shape and extend itself to function in all regards as a +6 holy lance.
Furthermore, when pressed to the forehead of a willing celestial horse of any kind, the horn melds into the creature's flesh and transforms the horse into a unicorn(this functions as the polymorph spell, with a permanent durration until the creature dies or the command word is spoken to remove the horn and end the change). While under this effect the creature also gains a +5 sacred bonus to attack rolls, saving throws, and armor class.
The horn also has the following powers, which can be activated in any of the horn's forms(by either the weilder or any celestial horse under the effect of the horn's polymorph power) as a standard action:
* Bless (at will, CL 21)
* Holy Smite (3/day, CL 21)
