He's very similar to Eachthighern (http://planewalker.com/encyclopedia/encyclopedia.php?intEntryID=2135).

Valarian

"Yet each time I see my unicorns, it is like that morning in the woods, and I am truly young in spite of myself, and anything can happen in a world that holds such beauty."
--The Last Unicorn, Peter S. Beagle

Valarian, like the other exalted powers, bears an incredible resemblance to another deity. In this case, that god is Eachthinghern, the god of unicorns and pegasi. The Dusk Unicorn's smaller clergy is actually more diverse, and includes the aforementioned species as well as blink dogs, lammasu, and androsphinxes as well as other good aligned beasts.

Valarian seeks to the protect all good aligned creatures as well as their natural brethren. For those creatures tainted by evil, especially lamias, he holds a mixture of pity and anger. He makes his home in the Unicorn Grove with Elhonna and Mielikki, though he is fond of running through the planes alongside Epona or Urachaivas.

It's said that despite his demipower status, the god mysteriously has many proxies scattered across the planes, chaste maidens who have given themselves to his service known as the Beloved of Valarian. The power of these women has reached the ears of the planes, futhering the suggestion that the exalted gods are keepers of a great source of Goodness that will be made known in the final battle with Evil.
