Wild Card Traits[]
If anyone other than a virgin touches his horn, he turns into a full-sized unicorn and only by sustained contact with a virgin can he change back to human form again. This usually means being ridden for several minutes. In his unicorn form he loses all reason and should a non-virgin attempt to ride him he will attempt to throw the rider and bolt.
Appearance[]
Alec is a seven foot tall joker with an impressive blond, spiked mohawk that covers a three foot long unicorn horn protruding from his forehead. He also sports a blond goatee beard.

Trivia[]
- Alicorn's friends usually employ the services of Sister Mary Immaculate when needing a virgin to reverse the unicorn transformation.
- He was infected with the Wild Card virus by Typhoid Croyd.
