{{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, Antlers, or Casque. 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.
