Without this horn, they are stuck in a human-like avatar, as Bracken was. It is the last horn a unicorn grows and it is the horn that enables unicorns to retain or enter their unicorn form. The third horn is the largest and easily the most powerful of the three unicorn horns. It is unknown if these abilities are unique to the second horn or if the other horns can also do these things, albeit with different levels of power. Bracken uses his second horn for the majority of his magic in the fifth book, including turning it into a gleaming white-and-silver sword. This horn is more powerful than the first horn but not nearly as powerful as a unicorn's third horn. Once a unicorn loses its first horn, this new horn begins to grow in. However, none of these enchantments were nearly as powerful or efficient as the first horn had been. When Bracken discovered this, he took back his horn from the centaurs but provided them with enchantments to continue to keep darkness at bay. Bracken's first horn was given to the centaurs in Grunhold at Fablehaven by Patton Burgess. This horn is generally given away to someone or place as a gift.

Here is a list of the abilities shown by unicorns with their horns in the Fablehaven series. In their avatar form, unicorns look just like humans, but with less faults and more perfection. In their horse form, unicorns resemble brilliant and beautiful white horses with a single, perfect, gleaming and spiraling white horn that sprouts from the center of their foreheads. They are well respected as members of the royal fairy family, and are "the rockstars of the fairytale world." Unicorns are majestic creatures of light. In Master of the Phantom Isle, Bracken's Third Horn is somehow no longer the Font of Immortality, returned to being his Horn, and was recovered from the Underking by Kendra and returned to Bracken, thus restoring his ability to return to his unicorn form at will. For the centaurs' misdeeds after Fablehaven fell, Agad and Bracken limited their domain and Bracken took his horn back though Agad did provide them with another means of mystical protection, albeit not as powerful as the Horn. Towards the end of the fifth book, it is revealed that Bracken is the son of the Fairy Queen and King, both of whom are unicorns like their son and not actual fairies. The horn held in reverence by the centaurs at Fablehaven is Bracken's first horn.

Actual evidence of a unicorn is first mentioned in the third book, Grip of the Shadow Plague, where the horn of a unicorn protects Grunhold from evil and darkness. Unicorns are referenced in the first book when Seth makes fun of Kendra only wanting to see a unicorn.
