Traits

It is often suggested that the concept of demons takes its name from these horns, rather than the other way around, due to the frequency with which it is seen on kipitin.  These horns are generally on the taller side, with a slight angle inwards towards the tips.  The amount of scattering on them varies, but there is always at least some of the horn missing.  Demon horns can only be placed on the forehead/headband area.

All kipitin horns can be made from glass, metal, or crystal, and there is no rarity for any material option.

These frequently seen horns typically have a more curved appearance than demon horns, but are most distinctive due to their style of scattering, which always looks as though slices have been taken out of the horn.  The amount of scattering on them varies, but there is always at least one slice missing.  Sliced horns can only be placed on the forehead/headband area.

These frequently seen horns are sometimes considered to resemble a tornado or smoke in general.  They typically have a base that starts out similarly to demon or sliced horns, but then the shape begins to spiral up, with various pieces scattered apart from each other.  The amount of scattering on them varies, but there is always at least some of the horn missing.  Swirl horns can only be placed on the forehead/headband area.

These frequently seen horns resemble the shape of a lyre frame.  Their typical scattering often takes the form of missing slices, but it’s not unheard of for them to be differently scattered.  The amount of scattering on them varies, but there is always at least some of the horn missing.  Lyre horns can only be placed on the headband area.

These are the least intact horn to be regularly seen on kipitins.  Shattered horns usually have a somewhat intact base… but after that, it’s anyone’s guess what the horn shape could have been if it had been intact.  Only tiny shards remain.  The amount of scattering on them varies, but there is never enough to create a shape.  Shattered horns can be placed on any part of the head, minus the face.

Although ram horns are less commonly seen on kipitins, they are considered to be a fairly standard shape.  They can be spread out, like in this example, or more compacted and closer in to the head.  The amount of scattering on them varies, and typically takes the form of slices, but they always have a curve you might see on a ram’s horns.  Ram horns can be placed on any part of the head, minus the face, and can point in any direction.

All kipitin horns can be made from glass, metal, or crystal, and there is no rarity for any material option.

Branched horns are infrequently seen, but are primarily distinguished by three branches that grow from the horns’ thick base.  These branches are never scattered from the base of the horn and are always connected.  Above them float different little shards of horn - a minimum of three pieces, but it’s not unheard of to see more shards.

All kipitin horns can be made from glass, metal, or crystal, and there is no rarity for any material option.

Forked horns are rarely seen, but are primarily distinguished by seeming to be more than a pair of horns at first glance.  The bases of the two primary horns grow from the head, splitting into two separate pieces that are never scattered, while two shards float above the head and can easily be mistaken as an extra set of horns.  There is typically additional scattering above the horns, although the exact amount can vary.

All kipitin horns can be made from glass, metal, or crystal, and there is no rarity for any material option.

These unusual horns are characterized by a strong base that is abruptly severed from the rest of the horn and a minimum of two long floating shards above the base that may vaguely resemble the position of the tibia and fibula of a humanoid skeleton.  There is typically additional scattering in addition to this, although the amount can vary.

All kipitin horns can be made from glass, metal, or crystal, and there is no rarity for any material option.

On occasion, a kipitin is created who has horns that are different from the standard ones.  They can be different shapes, lack scattering, and even come in different numbers.  (Some kipitin with this trait may have a singular horn, others may have thirty, for example).

Despite this, their horns are still invariably made from glass, metal, or crystal, and there is no rarity for any material option.
