Not all blessings arrive polished. Creature #8 of the Creaturepedia is the Snufflehorn (Sus cornatus) — a stout, whimsical hybrid with the body of a pig and the single shimmering horn of a unicorn. Though its snout is rarely clean, forever rooting in fields and puddles, the Snufflehorn carries a strange majesty: its horn glimmers faintly even under layers of dirt.


Folklore paints Snufflehorns as omens of harvest mischief. They wander into villages uninvited, overturning crops and troughs, yet leaving behind unexpected bounty. Farmers once said that where a Snufflehorn trod, laughter and prosperity soon followed. Troublesome to manage, impossible not to adore — they are both nuisance and marvel, chaos and blessing.

💛 Traits & Care


  • Temperament: Playful, stubborn, endearing

  • Sound: Loud snorts, sometimes bursting with faint sparks of light

  • Favorite Pastimes: Rooting through mud, hoarding shiny vegetables, burying pumpkins like treasure

  • Special Quirks:

    • Trails faint sparks where its horn brushes mud

    • Buries vegetables in neat rows — which often sprout weeks later 🌱

    • Loves squash and pumpkins above all


Care Tip: Provide a muddy pen with sturdy troughs. Snufflehorns thrive on earthy play and benefit from occasional horn polishing.


🧩 Collectability


As the eighth entry in the Creaturepedia, the Snufflehorn is cherished as The Muddy Blessing. Collectors prize it not for elegance, but for its curious mix of glory and grime — proof that magic sometimes looks like a pig with a dirty horn.


🌟 Final Note


The Snufflehorn reminds us that majesty can be muddy, and joy can be found in even the messiest companions. A whimsical marvel indeed — equal parts unicorn, pig, and pure delight.
