alicorns

Horned horses flying

An alicorn is a winged unicorn—a mythical horse with both a horn and wings.

The term gained wide currency through the animated series *My Little Pony*, where alicorns are rare and powerful characters.

Older usage refers to the horn itself or the substance it's supposedly made of, credited with magical healing properties: Medieval apothecaries sold narwhal tusks as alicorn.
