be sure to use the more HW-correct Alticamelus instead of High Llama, then (llamas being South American).

probably, they were like the telmor & other shapeshifters in RQ, and haven't been disproved to be so in HW :-)

Borderlands, River of Cradles and WF 12 have info on them.

They eat their enemies to gain magical powers. I don't remember any official writeups on them.

Probably because of the Yelorna cult writeup in Pavis. The Unicorn tribe predates the Yelorna writeup, being one of the "Ten Independants" from Nomad Gods. I have no problem with a small tribe of Amazon horse(unicorn) women. The wastes are certainly big enough to hide all sorts of wierdnesses.

Well, they aren't an official part of Praxian Glorantha (though I haven't seen stuff that the PraxPak group is doing, so who knows...).
Remember that "Prax" is only the best part of the Wastes, and that currently the Sables are enjoying being top dog since the Battle of Moonbroth. Most of the Bison & Sable riders are East of the ZF, in Vulture country and points East, building up their strength...
