Train a dragon or play a unicorn with the new D&D Pets & Sidekicks book
Briefly

EN Publishing's Pets & Sidekicks offers new rules for Dungeons & Dragons players to include animal companions that develop with their characters. Creatures can grow from baby forms to full companions, introducing relationship dynamics where sentient beings may choose to leave or stay. Players can raise dragons, which adds complexity as they may become allies or enemies depending on treatment. The Kickstarter campaign aims to enrich gameplay by enabling deeper connections with sidekicks and companions, transforming the adventuring experience.
You can have a unicorn companion, but at level 1 you're not going to get a full, noble, majestic unicorn that's challenge rating 5... you're going to get a baby unicorn, and they're going to grow up along with you.
Characters can raise a dragon wyrmling for 10 levels, but then the young dragon is going to want to go off on its own. It might remain a friend who will sometimes help out the PC who raised it, or a bitter enemy, depending on how it was treated.
