'''Horns''' is a mutation that grants the {{Favilink|horns}} natural equipment on the character's head.
'''Horns''' is a mutation that grants one of the following natural equipment variants on the character's head:
* {{favilink id|Horns}}
* {{favilink id|Horns Single}}
* {{favilink id|Horns Casque}}
* {{favilink id|Horns Antlers}}
* {{favilink id|Horns Spiral}}


{{qud look|text=A pair of massive, curling horns. They can deliver devastating gore attacks to enemies.}}
If the character has multiple heads, the horns will only be equipped onto one head. Like other armor, the {{AV}}AV and {{DV}}DV will be averaged across all heads. As well as being armor, Horns act as a short blade weapon type, and can benefit from the [[Short Blade]] skill tree. They are one of the few short blade weapons that has an uncapped strength [[penetration]] modifier.

When the player selects the Horns mutation, they can also {{Qud text|&WC&yustomize}} it by pressing "C" during character creation to select the variant of horns they would like. The options are: Horns, Horn, Casque, Antlers, or Spiral Horn. Mechanically, these variants are identical to each other.

The player can select their horn-bearing head as their primary weapon from the equipment screen in order to always attack with their horns as their default weapon. Otherwise, there is only a 20% chance to attack with the horns to when making an attack with any other primary weapon.

* Prevents the player from benefiting from any head mods, such as [[lanterned]]
*Horns do not grow back if the head they are on is decapitated and then regenerated, unlike {{Favilink|Stinger|plural}}
 
===Considerations===
* Having {{f|two-headed}} will reduce the disadvantages, as the horns are only attached to a single head. This will allow you to still equip headgear for beneficial effects you can't get with the horns, such as headgear mods. However, this comes with the usual disadvantages associated with two-headed, and means you will still need to procure headgear for one of your heads
